@totallynotretro Valve blocks 160+ countries from buying steam hardware, but I never see you crying about it 🤣🤣

"Stop being mean to Sony!"
Sony blocked over 100 countries from playing a game that PC gamers were supporting, more than console dudes, but we should've just accepted it?
You're a clown.

@PCMR_Elitist As a pc/ps5 gamer myself you alleged pc elitists are weird to me. You didn't support they're games going by sales numbers. When they tried to have sign in account requirements/store interface you pushed back. Now it's I wasn't interested anyway they saw that so they pushed back🤷🏾♀️

@LilithLovett @UndeadCantDie Tbf you are asking them to compromise who they truly are.
English
@UndeadCantDie Who said anything about compromise?
The original post is literally about just being normal and not an insufferable freak.
English
"just one more compromise guys i swear just one more and everything will work out just one more" fuck off actually

Leftists will always come in clutch to save the right by insisting on being sanctimonious and insufferable no matter what.

@KingBuu_fit @LilithLovett You would know a lot about being a loser, you being a socialist and all

@LilithLovett Yeah its definitely leftists capitulating to the right and not you centrist losers

We actually don’t need advice on what’s normal from a white woman who hates the homeless and thinks we’re too mean to Israelis lol

Mind you, this only happened in 2022, and it was 12 women killed by their sons compared to 11 women killed by strangers. That was the only time it happened,
yet the BBC made it into a huge story. Only 12 cases, and that was enough.
You can see how media propaganda works sometimes…they take a very small statistical difference and turn it into a shocking headline for attention.

@James_on_X @Scivf4 Yep, it's all the same control systems at the core, probably won't be long till you can retrofit these into your average mill, like you can retrofit CNC routers into laser cutters
English
@HitokiriGenjuro @LEVIAHSEN @Genki_JPN Yeah they do it by asking other celebrities and CEOs that they know to put them in touch with the person, just like what happened here.
English
@LEVIAHSEN @Genki_JPN Are you really that ignorant that you think celebrities and CEOs can’t find a way to contact each other?

Gabe Newell emailed Elon Musk to ask for a SpaceX tour for Hideo Kojima!
Newell: "The second thing is he was talking about how much he wants to go into space, and I offered to introduce him to you. He'd love to get a SpaceX tour."
Musk: "Sure, it would be great to meet Hideo Kojima and he's welcome to see the rocket factory. No problem to send him my email."
Hideo Kojima previously said its his life dream to go to space:
"If I could have just one wish in my life—if I could cast a magic spell and make anything come true—without hesitation, it would be this: 'I wish to go to space before I die.' It doesn't have to be anything as extravagant as a trip to the moon or Mars. I would be satisfied with only a brief orbit, just beyond Earth’s atmosphere, where I can gently brush against outer space. I would give up anything to make that wish come true: my current place as a game designer, which I’ve built up for forty-five years; I'm even prepared to throw away my family or my own life. That is how powerfully I—or rather we—yearn for the cosmos." - The Creative Gene

@skribbledonk @NickRebornTV The fact you can't read proves you are actually illiterate. Nobody will ever take you seriously
English
@NickRebornTV the fact that you referred to a program (more specifically a video game) as an "app" proves you are functionally and technologically illiterate. nobody should take you seriously.
English
I’ll be the #1 defender of this on this app then I guess.
The fact you can export and sell projects on steam will change lives. I really think this game is a gift to the indie scene and can only improve with time.
$20 is such a small amount of money to spend on this, and it will eventually go F2P.
There’s endless potential here and people have just seen the surface. Facepunch has been working on TOOLS. Not a traditional game.
I’ve noticed legitimate complaints but a loud community of (children?) complaining to no end about the price, optional cosmetics, and how the game is doomed.
To that I say - lol

It's a little funny that the spiritual successor to Garry's Mod released yesterday, and nobody cares at all.
English
@pterodaustro Because they are actually engaging with the hypothetical, they are saying if I was actually in that situation where my life was on the line how would I act? how would other people act when their life was on the line? It's easy to vote blue when it's just a silly twitter poll
English
want to make it clear that i do not give a shit about the actual discourse this dumb poll is generating but i do find it a lil fascinating how like 90% of the people ive seen talking about it are in favor of the red button and present as the obvious choice. because i read this -

Empathy was never a part of it until someone asked if children, disabled, and people unable to understand the question was involved. A good portion didn't even see that because it wasn't part of the original test.

@BigGreenStyle @loyalmoses no because they're gonna require all software in the future to be connected to internet and run it through AI bullshit to report you
and it's totally gonna pick up prop guns as fake ones if they keep being retarded and passing retarded legislation
English
I love that @loyalmoses keep trying to tell machinist/cnc people that stupid things like this were going to absolutely fuck their industry up and no one cared/listened. Now states are passing bullshit CNC bans.
In 2 years cosplayers are going to be getting their doors knocked in because some bullshit AI software thought their prop gun was a real gun and their laptop reported them to the feds.
It's always "it'll never come for me, oh it wont pass, oh you're fear mongering" well the chickens are out here roostin. Roostin they'll continue to do.

@justincbs @AriDavidPaul That's why this test should be taken at gun point just to make sure everyone is alert and paying attention lol
English
@AriDavidPaul The problem is that it's a trick question to people like me, who are too stupid and / or impatient to finish reading the question before answering blue.
To morons like me, it says everyone will be OK with blue so I pressed blue.
Logic isn't the issue here, ADHD is.
English
As a game theory question, it’s boring and easy. As a political question, it’s fascinating and reveals a great deal about why democracies struggle.
Superficially, blue looks like the collectivist, selfless, moral answer. And as you’d expect, plenty of people not only assumed that to be true, but moralized aggressively at those who understand that’s not factually true.
Anyone who picks red is guaranteed to live, including if everyone does it. It’s objectively the better and more moral choice for most and to recommend to others. Blue is a kind of stochastic suicide button.
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy
Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?
English
@SSBak_i @CovfefeAnon Theory of mind Vs the reality of people actually behave, most people who claim they would pick blue are either not actually engaging with the hypothetical and acting like they would when there life is on the line or just keyboard hero that would actually pick red out of fear
English
@CovfefeAnon Can you guarantee that no one would pick blue?
If not, then there’s your reason to pick blue
The only conundrum to me in the wake of this hypothetical is the red pickers not understanding why anyone would pick blue…
Is it cope or just no theory of mind?
English
This twitter classic "red button / blue button" [everyone who picks blue dies unless more than 50% do; everyone who picks red lives] question is cursed but we've learned a lot about people since it went around on the timeline the last time
First to get this out of the way - there is zero actual reason to push blue - none - there is no "payoff to cooperation" being modeled since the payoff on offer - not dying - is the same for both choices. The only rational reason to pick blue is that you *hope* less than 50% of people pick blue so you can end your life and escape the person who is putting you in contrived hypotheticals for his own amusement
With that out of the way - what we've learned in the 2 years since this hit the timeline the first time is that many, many people are simply next token predictors and when they see this example they say they will pick the "cooperative" choice (which isn't actually that!)
We have also learned that when confronted with the stupidity of this position, they will simply costlessly double down and "argue" about it forever rather than admit error
Really, the question is extremely revealing

@DeborahMeaden @CeeMacBee I wonder what the highest energy prices in Europe does to innovation
English
@CeeMacBee Neither does it feed innovation, creativity, alternative healthier farming methods… it feeds lazy backward looking and dirty. I’m for clean, creative, innovation and healthy.
English
Renewable electricity does not produce: petrol, diesel, bunker fuel, or jet fuel; it does not produce the feed stock for ammonia used to make fertilisers, or feedstocks for chemicals, pharmaceuticals or plastics; it does not produce bitumen, carbon fibres, armaments or ammunition; it does not produce the industrial heat needed to make cement, glass, aluminium, ceramics or steel.
Claiming we shouldn't mine oil and gas in the UK because we won't be self sufficient is like suggesting we shouldn't produce any food because we won't be able to grow enough and would still need to import some.
Caroline Lucas is NOT right.
Candice Holmes@hol40900
Caroline Lucas is right. North Sea output has collapsed, investment is falling off a cliff and new fields would take years to come online. Renewables already generate over half our electricity—and do it faster, cheaper, and without wrecking the climate.🌍
English
@philthyphil83 @moondustan @stevemouzon @wrathofgnon Yeah and that's how you get a rail network that's billions over the original budget and been shrunk from country wide to a regional line lol
English
@moondustan @stevemouzon @wrathofgnon Not sure where you are based, but in the UK we are generally required to build infrastructure to a 100 year design life. On some current infrastructure projects (like the high speed rail line being built now) it's a 120 year design life requirement
English
Reinforced concrete is fragile because it is self-defeating: the host material (concrete) is a really heavy sponge, delivering water right to the reinforcing that supposedly makes it strong, but water rusts steel. This bridge endured for less than a decade.

In 900 years none of this will exist or even be remembered bc it turns out modern reinforced concrete doesn’t last very long.

@j0ker937 It looks artistic. But I think I still prefer the original state.
And you're right, my wife would say: 'Heb je een gaatje in de kop?' Which literally means: 'Do you have a hole in your head?' and translates as: Are you nuts?
