@Starlight_Syd Not as a come back to play often (though I need to replay it): Nier Automata, and Nier Replicant. I know they won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but I think everyone should play them.

I keep gravitating to "older" games because these new "big" games just aren't it spare for a few I can't be the only one right??🤔

Fixed it for y'all 🫡

Can people really not read cursive anymore? Am I THAT old? 😐

@Miilfywayz As long as it doesn’t get contaminated with other things, vinegar is oxidized wine. So if it has been oxidized (and not otherwise contaminated) then you can use it just like you would a store bought white wine vinegar.
English
I just found a white wine that is 50 years old in my house.. It's like.. not even clear white anymore, looks like vinegar... Do you think I can still use it for cooking??
English
@Quasilocal My logic is slightly different.
Everyone in the world is forced to make a choice: red or blue.
Red: saves the self, accepts losses from this forced vote.
Blue: balks at the thought of forced death and votes that there should be none, putting self at potential risk.
English
Roughly it's like this right?
Red button: "I don't think blue would come close to 50% in the real world" (So I can't safely press it)
Blue button: "I feel confident in my fellow human to do the right thing and blue will win" (so it's safe to press blue)
English
@ThatDaveGuy85 @cluckthesystem The vote for red implicitly accepts there will be loss. If you don’t want to deal with the consequences of that loss, then you should vote for blue.
You can’t have both, it’s a binary decision.
The only to save not the self is to vote blue.
English
@cluckthesystem @TechRedben91 The case could be made that pushing red is a viable option if your goal is to "save other people" which is distinct from "save everyone."
Many people have pointed out that if blue loses, the sudden population loss would throw the world into turmoil.
Someone has to save them too
English
@Johnm1291 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Since I was blocked by the asshole who can’t validly argue their point:
Nice ad hominem you got there. Too bad it just proves you don’t have a valid point and are trying to make yourself feel better.
Also, you’re*
English
@Johnm1291 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Until 50% is surpassed, in which case no death occurs. “Everybody just” is the way to achieve no death for red votes.
You don’t need everybody, you need every other person +1.
And if I die working to attain no death, so be it.
English
I was so confused by why people were upset at this and then I did like some mild digging into The Discourse and it genuinely baffles me that people take genuine issue with the idea of "I would rather fight for everyone's safety than gurantee my own out of self preservation"

A train is coming down a track. Everyone on Earth has the choice to either tie themselves to the track, or not. If more than 50% of people choose to tie themselves to the track, the train turns around and doesn't run them over. Yes or no - do you tie yourself to the track?
English
@Johnm1291 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Way to put thoughts in other’s minds.
I cannot justify any loss of life due to some entity’s whims to play a death game. So I vote for no deaths.
If I win, no deaths. If I lose, not my problem, have fun with whatever comes next🤷♂️
English
@TechRedben91 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Red chose to mind their business
Blue is sucking on shotguns and hoping there is not enough ammo to go around for everyone’s new lollipops
And get angry
Blue is making a problem and insisting they are helping
English
@Johnm1291 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity That’s a fun conspiracy, have fun with that. Just like my rejection of deaths, I reject viewing others as an enemy because they chose different than me.
English
@TechRedben91 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity You’ll get there
The experiment was to speed run speeding a mind virus

English
@Johnm1291 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Did I say enemy? You’re the one bringing in that charged language.
If you want to be viewed that way, go for it, but I never said that.
English
@TechRedben91 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Aka someone else is living their life peacefully and now they are an “enemy”
Social engineering
English
@KrystaIAvatar @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Red decides that any loss <50% is acceptable as long as they get their guaranteed safety, yes you are correct.
Being placed into a situation where pressing one of two buttons has a non-zero chance of death is being placed in danger. Red just is an easy out
English
@TechRedben91 @l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity Except red was never in danger, so it really doesn't matter if blue wins or not. They picked the suicide pact and need enough suckers to join in to save your themsleves
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce Where in the fuck did I say virtue signaling?
Nice ad hominem, bad b8. Later m8.
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce So as we've established you value virtue signalling over your own life, the people who vote blue made the voluntary choice to die, i don't see any reason to further increase the number of deaths, people who vote blue will die regardless of my choice.
English
> Pressing blue is the only way people die
This is “if everyone will just”
The majority of red arguments reduce to this
Blue accepts that everyone will not just
NanoScream@ironyisabich
@TheEbonyMaw Nothing bad happens if everyone presses the red button but the way the question is set up seems like you HAVE to press blue or else people will die Pressing blue is the only way people die Handy chart stolen from someone in the OP replies
English
@l33tg4m3r4lif3 @MaritheKity It says clearly that if blue gets >50% no one dies. The only negative to a blue vote is the knowledge that there are humans who would rather guarantee their own survival regardless the cost, and would vote accordingly.
English
@MaritheKity Because voting Blue doesn't save everyone it only saves those that voted blue. Everyone that doesn't vote blue had to vote red and are therefore save regardless of the blue vote. Red is saving yourself without conditions and blue is saving yourself with conditions.
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce You put the death on the people who are forced to press buttons, not the entity(entities?) who are running the killing game. If red gets majority, the blues die by the power of the game proctor.
You accept that, I cannot. Either I’m one of the deaths, or helped save everyone.
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce 🤷♂️30% of the population chose to kill themselves, i would urge anyone i could not to do so, but ultimately they're the ones that decided to do so, i do not feel an obligation to kill myself simply because others decided to, because with 30.000001% everyone still dies, by a mile
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce I refuse to accept that 30% of global population deserves to die, and refuse to live in a world where 30% of the population die due to self-preservation over preserving the whole.
It’s your bad problem now🤷♂️
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce no, the VAST majority of people *will* pick the safe option when their life is actually on the line. by about 70:30 in favor of red, by pressing blue, you are strictly making a bad situation worse.
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce I refuse to be a bystander that does nothing “because my vote doesn’t matter.” In the aggregate every vote absolutely matters.
Regardless, I refuse to believe anyone deserves to die, so I choose the only option that has an effect on everyone living, not just myself.
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce like, here's the thing: until you are the person that pushes the total number of people pressing blue over 50%, all you're doing by pressing blue is adding another corpse onto the pile
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce You’re only considering yourself. Some people will pick blue, humans are irrational, and some dumb. That means picking red increases the likelihood those that inevitably pick blue will die, and picking blue increases the likelihood there will be no deaths in the world.
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce a zero sum game is one where one participant's gain is balanced by the other participant's loss
this game is a choice between *ZERO* benefit/loss on one hand, and near-certain death on the other, it is absolutely not zero sum.
English
@siriusblack9999 @workflowsauce It absolutely is a zero sum game.
And you only die pressing blue *if more people press red.* You don’t die immediately, then get resurrected if more than 50% pressed blue.
I’m not saying you pressing red is inherently bad, we’re just optimizing different outcomes.
English
@TechRedben91 @workflowsauce it's not though
if i press blue, i die, unless half of the world's population decides to die with me, the more people press blue, the more people die, until over 3.5 billion people simultaneously decide to kill themselves
i don't think there's any universe in which that happens
English
