DM Gaussrik

@nycexpatmom Hi, conservative man here. I -do- give a fuck? But I also don’t see a logical way out; if more choice leads to extinction fertility rates, a culture that offers choice will eventually die out and be replaced by one that doesn’t. So Im hoping those aren’t the only two options!

@radicalbarks @Grummz That's fair, I meant more about leviathan killing than small fish killing. The latter worked fine.

@Gaussrik @Grummz I don't at all see how chopping a mesmer up with your super-hot knife could be considered either of those things.

Subnautica 2 is a pacifist ideology woven into a game. Players have noticed you cannot defend yourself against attacking fish. Not even in self defense. Only passive means are available. This was by design. You can't kill anything because the devs feel it would support gun violence and aspects of colonialism: "Subnautica is one vote towards a world with less guns. A reminder that there is another way forward." "We want people to feel like they're learning to adapt to the world, rather than being a conqueror or dominator." "We aren't a killing game. Go play Sons of the Forest or something if you want to kill." The anti-violence stance got stronger from Subnautica 1 -> 2, which now has a complete "no kill" policy even when the fish can still kill *you*.

@JekkuPeruna @Grummz Took a while, but certainly satisfying XD I also enjoyed bullying Leviathans off the crater using the electro-Seamoth

@Gaussrik @Grummz Stasis rifle+thermoblade And now I'm the hunter, not the hunted.

@Fingusa @Grummz Effective but not efficient, you had to hang onto them for ages to take them down. It really felt like you weren't intended to do that.

@Gaussrik @Grummz Dunno Prawn Suit's drill was pretty effective on leviathans.

@panchasky Pero tambien, la gente tiende a unidimensionalizar las nuevas tecnologias. Cuando estallo la burbuja de las .com, la internet no dejo de tener sitios web. Si, hay mas productos de IA de los que se necesitan, pero eso no significa que la tecnologia vaya a desaparecer.

Se dijo lo mismo de la TV y de Redes Sociales, pero en retrospectiva... igual fue cierto, somos una sociedad completamente diferente por la consecuencia de estas.

Compré una sal del Himalaya cuyo origen según el envase es de hace 240 millones de años y resulta que se vence ahora en octubre.

@edmundmcmillen Honestly, that would’ve been fine. Just don’t come out and also make social media posts about how honored and grateful you are for the privilege. 🤣

Just imagine if we got anita sarkeesian to meow for mewgenics!

@MrsCMFrancis I think if you have children, you probably like your spouse and want there to be more people like her. Presumably, they also feel that way about you. So, naturally, wanting your (2) children to look like you (2) is literally the most normal thing a person could want. No?

I am sorry but “I demand my children and my children’s children look like me” is simply ungodly and un-Biblical and I will not entertain it or be friends with people who say that kind of stuff.

@the_fem_tm The problem is that it’s an abstract exercise. All other things being equal, yeah, 20-23 is the most attractive age, sure. But this is the flipside to 6 feet tall+ being most attractive for men. It’s only one factor among many, and it’s not even the biggest.

Men should in general not express the fact that they think 20 year olds are the hottest in the same way that every woman already knows better than to mention that she

@neunieart I really like it! When you run a game for over a decade you accumulate hundreds of NPC names, lol Yeah, I was Riot Gaussrik at some point! I was the guy behind the LATAM “Actualizando” youtube videos :)

@Gaussrik Honestly, gaussrik sounds so cool!! I didn’t know that you worked for riot :o

I’m just wondering… What’s the story behind your username?

Encuentro interesante el tema de Anita Sarkeesian y Slay the Spire II. Normalmente estoy en contra de “cultura de cancelacion”, pero en este caso simpatizo mucho con no querer comprar cosas en las que ella este involucrada. Quizas tema para stream.

Help I can’t tell if this is parody 🤣

@magnus532 @JackPosobiec Episode 8, lightspeed ram is the scene where my love of star wars died. As the music goes quiet, so did my feeling, and it never came back. I no longer find lightsabers cool.

スターウォーズEP8の破壊力って本当に凄くて、スターウォーズが持ってる神性を全て破壊し尽くしてるんだよ。これ観たあとスターウォーズ旧三部作を観たら、神話からただの映像作品になってて本当にたまげた。全てがどうでもいいものになってた。ただ単につまんなかったEP7とは持ってる力が違う。

Bien. Genial querer hacer material nuevo, pero “reimaginar” las obras mas exitosas del pasado por equipos nuevos que no tienen logroz comparables es una mala formula!

Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.

@Bocchisher @SuperO4twiit El manga de youjo senki es de las obras ilustradas mas bellas que nunca he visto. El anime es… funcional, se entiende. No hay comparacion.

@SuperO4twiit Es lo más feo que me pasó en la vida después de la muerte de mi padre. Prefiero mil veces el diseño del manga

Que linda que es Visha. Encima la OVA han mejorado las expresiones de los personajes.

@sircalebhammer I quit by ep 9. I feel ya, the feeling of emptiness as the excitement of fandom slips away is awful. But then it fades.

Damn. Probably the first Star Wars movie I won’t see in theaters. There’s just nothing interesting here.

@ponguton So the problem here is reversed cause and effect. Women don’t like him because he’s misogynistic, easy access to a lot of women makes him misogynistic. And then unattractive men see this and attempt to mimic the misogyny.

El tipo más misógino que conozco es el que más viejas levanta jajajajaja Desafortunadamente a mí me crió una mujer y no sirvo para tratarlas así de mal. Pero es increíble.
