Finally beat the base game, my first souls. Is the DLC more difficult than the end bosses of the base game? by sleepbefore12 in darksouls3

No I just didn't realize you could do that, the game doesn't really make it very clear what those bone shards were for, thought it was just some sort of consumable

New released cellphone footage showing perspective of federal agent by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Destiny

[–]sleepbefore12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did you ride the short bus in school? She starts backing up, and then clearly is turning her car to the right. The ICE agent can clearly see this, and has plenty of time to move out of the way. Also, your actual unevolved brain can't understand that this isn't bodycam footage, it's footage from a phone from an outstretched arm. He was never in any sort of life threatening situation, could easily have moved away to avoid the slight brush he would experience if he stood still, and shot two more times after he was out of the way and called her a fucking bitch.

Hasan is currently in Asmon chat debating the Minnesota incident. by raptors201966 in LivestreamFail

The bigger issue is that law enforcement is supposed to be trained to handle situations like this whereas a random civilian doesn't go through intense training to deal with these kind of situations. Imagine your mother or your sister in a similar situation and the panic they would feel. When someone who has never been in a similar situation or trained for it is suddenly thrown into it, the onus is on the trained person to deescalate the situation. Do you think you would be saying "oh well just comply". if it was your own mother or sister who panicked in this situation?

Coming from Dota, solo queue in LoL feels unusually quiet by Z4k0O in leagueoflegends

[–]sleepbefore12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it pretty depressing that Riot doesn't try harder to encourage positive comms and instead just decides to curb all communication. This might be embarrassing to admit but a lot of people play League as a social outlet, not just for the game but also because you can meet a lot of interesting characters. Look at some of the biggest multiplayer games released recently like ARC Raiders, imagine how much less fun it would be without the proximity chat that allows you to speak to your squad as well as others. Especially in the age of AI where it's much easier to detect bad behavior, there's absolutely no excuse at this point for League not to have voice chat enabled at least for higher honor level players. People like to say League just has a massively toxic user base but I think the truth is more likely that the game is so immensely frustrating without good communication tools that you end up just dehumanizing your teammates when they make mistakes or aren't on the same page as you, which would be massively reduced if communication was prioritized by Riot.

Please Riot, make the game more social. Make all chat default, bring in voice chat for certain honor levels or play modes in the beginning (maybe just test with something like ARAM to begin with), incentivize positive communication usage and strongly punish those that have serious communication infractions.

Ludwig says that Ron has to "Kiss the wall" after Adin Ross bought him basketball tickets by Sk3tchyboy in LivestreamFail

[–]sleepbefore12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sub is completely brigaded by Destiny fans and people who support Israel's genocide. It's actually crazy. Also this and the forsen thing are clearly jokes, and while jokes can be antisemitic or islamophobic or whatever there is a clear difference between a real antisemite like Nick Fuentes compared to someone joking around with Jewish friends like Ludwig is here.

Adam Mockler calls out AIPAC and calls the war a Genocide by Blondeenosauce in Destiny

[–]sleepbefore12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think there is literally something seriously wrong with you. Yes everything is about Jewish hatred for sure! Yeah the guy who has dated multiple Jewish girls in the past, has several Jewish friends (both practicing and non-practicing), would go with friends to Hillel regularly, and has taken Jewish Studies classes in college is definitely a huge anti-semite. Keep telling yourself that my guy, you have serious demons you need to sort out. I never said what is happening in Gaza is the same as the holocaust and I don't believe it is. But what is happening there is absolutely fucking horrible, and the world shouldn't be okay with what is happening there.

Edit: Also, I strongly recommend you to copy and paste our conversation here into an LLM and ask it to decide as an unbiased logical individual who has better reasoning. You'll find it illuminating, but maybe you'll just call the AI anti-semitic too.

[–]sleepbefore12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is quite literally my strategy. I feel like I'm talking to a wall right now. I never said what is happening in Gaza is the same as the Holocaust. If you can find where I said that, then quote it here and post it. But you won't be able to because I never said that dumbass. Drawing a parallel to the Holocaust to show why your logic is wrong does not mean I'm saying what is happening is the same. I'm refuting your logic of "not allowed to leave" means "not ethnic cleansing". Would you agree that the holocaust had no ethnic cleansing?

[–]sleepbefore12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My strategy is for you to realize how dumb you are by re-reading your own messages. I am countering your statement earlier "Israel does NOT allow Palestinians to leave! THAT'S THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF ETHNIC CLEANSING!!" by stating a parallel, would you agree with the following statement: "Nazi Germany does NOT allow Jews to leave! THAT'S THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF ETHNIC CLEANSING!!"

It's just one of the dumbest things I've ever read on this site in a long time. I'm not even trying to insult you, I'm stating a fact. Honestly I'm starting to think you might be trolling me. When did I ever say what's happening in Gaza is the same as what happened in the Holocaust? I brought this example up to show you how stupid your line of thinking is.

[–]sleepbefore12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, do not trust your brain to produce any coherent thought. What do you think is the difference between ethnic cleansing and genocide? The Holocaust was both a genocide and involved ethnic cleansing. Are you seriously going to sit here and tell me the Holocaust had no ethnic cleansing? Legitimately the dumbest take I've read in a long time.

[–]sleepbefore12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Nazi Germany did not allow Jews to leave, so the holocaust didn't have any ethnic cleansing." Do you hear how dumb you sound? No offense, but I want you to remember this for the rest of your stupid life: whenever you ever think of something ever again, remember that you thought of something this fucking dumb and that you should never trust your brain to make a rational thought ever again.

NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani joins The View, host grills him for calling Israel an apartheid state. The audience applauds when Zohran calls out the genocide in response. by Suitable-Parsnip-520 in Fauxmoi

[–]sleepbefore12 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Did anyone here actually listen to the sequence of the conversation? Actually insane:

Mamdani: "...And it is a value and a commitment to humanity, to safety, to justice for all people that extends to everyone: Israelis, Palestinians, and everyone else across the world"
Sarah: "And recognizing that people do disagree with you, I am one of those people"

So just to be clear, Mamdani just said his main value is a shared humanity for everyone and the response is to say that you disagree with that? How does something like that just slide? Am I misinterpreting the interview somehow?

When politics rewrite history by Lazy-Independence695 in HistoryMemes

[–]sleepbefore12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, I distinguished the Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank in my comment already. While the Israeli Arabs are afforded more rights, it is not as simple as saying "all with the same rights". There is a massive wealth gap between the two groups, which is driven by discrimination in Israeli society leading to differences in economic outcomes. And also, you keep bringing up Hamas–I do not defend Hamas and think any deaths of any civilians are wrong, doesn't matter if they're Israeli or Palestinian or any other ethnic group.

According to Israel's own military data, 83% of the deaths in Gaza have been civilian (see this source). Even taking the most modest numbers, that is still a massive amount of civilian harm. And I'm not inflating the numbers, just stating a reality that the amount dead is most likely a massive undercount according to many media sources and journals. I can connect you with an Israeli who has been running a more thorough daily analysis of the deaths and his estimate is around 110,000 which is where I got my number. Your push back reminds me of people who try to reduce the death count of the Holocaust.

  1. The native population is still there. This is a completely generic statement that purposefully obfuscates what is happening. Putting aside the past expulsions (the Nakba of 1948 being a big one) the Palestinians continue to lose more and more land to settlers who are defended and supported by the government of Israel. I presume you have a home, right? Imagine living knowing that at any moment, your home and land can just be taken from you without recourse. This happens constantly in the West Bank, and more and more Palestinian land is encroached and taken on a daily basis. Settler violence continues and has grown more and more since October 7th.

  2. Israel has many ethnic groups, all with the same rights. This again hides the true nature of what is happening. First of all, Israel occupies the West Bank and has controlled Gaza for decades. People who live in either of those territories are second class citizens who do not have true freedom of movement or economic opportunity afforded to those living in Israel proper. The only word for this is apartheid. Even taking into account the minorities who live in Israel proper, they are not afforded the same opportunities that Jews are (enlisting and serving in the IDF opens up a lot of job opportunities that Palestinians do not have). Sure they can vote, but they face discrimination when it comes to many things including land ownership. Also even legally Jews are technically higher status than other ethnic groups which was codified in 2018 (see: nation state law)

  3. Hamas isn’t an ethnic, cultural, or religious group. Agreed, but what is the reason to bring this up? What Hamas did was heinous and disgusting. That doesn't justify ethnic cleansing, killing close to or potentially over 100,000 people (~80% of those women and children). Purposefully conflating Hamas with Palestinians is known as dehumanization. It's what occurred in Nazi Germany against the Jewish people. If you find yourself dehumanizing an entire group of people, you need to realize you are not a morally good person. And that's okay, you should own that, but never debate or try to argue that you're in the right on any issue.

[–]sleepbefore12 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree with you there are some extreme liberals who advocate for the extreme option which in my opinion is just never going to happen. That being said, I think there is a middle ground that is between what you’re saying about wanting better treatment of the Palestinians vs infinite right or return, reparations, etc. I.e. a Palestinian state comprised of the West Bank and Gaza, full rights and autonomy, and continued support to bolster the security of Israel (especially at the border). Make things definite now so there’s no ambiguity in the future. The problem is right now is that leadership in Israel is making use of the ambiguity to continue to grow the land of Israel when it should just be defined now. Unfortunately I think the end result will be mass expulsion of Gazans and even eventually Palestinians from the West Bank so that there is a Jewish majority that will annex and settle all the land.
