I’ve seen videos of Americans grappling with this during interviews at ICE protests from this weekend. Some of them are getting pushed to their limits.

Understandably, though, people generally don’t want to hurt others. So it’s going to take a while before people start breaking down to that outcome. I think everyone just hopes something will change before push comes to shove.

It depends on the game, but i like long RPG’s. Sometimes, it can start to wear out its welcome. But for the games where it works well it’s cool. You get to experience this big world, usually going from a weakling to a strong character by the end. The stories can be really interesting (or bland too).

I recently decided that I am going to take on a game that could potentially take me hundreds of hours to finish and it’s daunting, but if at some point if I start to hate it, I’ll put it down and Google the results of the story and feel content.

I always think of the rooster call that’s used in Ocarina of time.

There’s also a laser beam noise that gets used in a couple n64 games and various other media. And a couple sounds from golden eye that I’ve heard used.

I can’t say for certain, but I think the popularity is probably due to a lot of these reused sounds being part of sound packs and compilations from the 80’s and 90’s

He got in the way, had plenty of time to move, AND she wasnt moving fast. He’s a nazi and a murderer. I hope they all get what they deserve frankly. Life in prison at the bare minimum

Yeah thats true! I hope that the world shifts towards that rather than what most people have been doing.

The only way I would be comfortable with Ai is if I could craft it myself, run it locally, and prevent it from feeding bullshit results, was energy efficient, could prevent it from phoning home, wasn’t built off of stolen data and also didn’t give profit to big companies

Not sure if it’s just me paying attention more or what, but it has felt like since 2016 politicians globally have followed in trumps footsteps. There’s always a group that just acts like complete awful people with no repercussions

First I think it depends on what we are considering kids. I was online from age 8 but didn’t get into online games or communities until about 10. But in the case of the law, they’re often saying anything below 15, 16 or 18 etc. It depends on the country/jurisdiction.

There are lots of places kids can find community. When i was a kid I was playing on neopets, club penguin, old school runescape, guild wars. I made friends with people from all over the place. One of my best friends in my youth is from across the continent, and we have been friends for 20 years now.

I think the bottom line is parents should parent. When I was a kid the PC was in the main room. My parents spoke to me frequently about staying safe online and asked me about what I was doing on the PC. They made sure I was only accessing kid appropriate sites and that I wasn’t getting myself into trouble.

Could I have gotten in trouble? Yeah possibly. I also could have gotten kidnapped at the local park

I wish union work was more common place. It seems where I live unions are mostly for blue collar work and less common than I would hope to see.

I just got a new pc back in February and I’m kicking myself for not buying more storage and ram

Whenever this comes up, it feels like a play to harvest people’s data and / or to slip additional laws into place under the guise of “protect the children”.

On one hand I don’t think it’s terrible to try to guide kids more. I think parents should be doing more parenting tbh. If a parent wants to put parental locks in place, they can. Even blocking specific sites from being accessed entirely. I think the bigger issue is people don’t understand how to use computers so they think there’s nothing they can do lol.

On the other I think it runs the risk of preventing kids from accessing information online, finding safe spaces online, and isolating kids more than they already can be. It also limits things like teaching kids about technology and how to use it safely.

I appreciate the offer, but I likely won’t be able to play it for a while. I don’t have the time that I would need to dedicate to it at the moment!

I’ve been wanting to play this game for a while. But I think in order to have the best experience, you probably need to get a group together that is willing to play at the same time as you

. I convinced a friend to play a bit(like 4 hours) with me years ago and I thought it was fun! But I don’t think he enjoyed the slower grind of the experience and he dropped off.

There’s a game called suck up, that also has this. I’ve read mixed results on it, but the idea seemed unique at least

The vending machine from cyberpunk was pretty cool but this seems like its cognitively challenged ancestor lol.

I’m getting really tired of AI everything. So far AI hasn’t seemed to make my life any easier or better. I have to try and over analyze everything I see now which isn’t fun. But yeah. Wish it would actually do something for me instead of make some billionaires richer.

I’m fortunate that I can take a week off next week. Just hoping I can get my current work done so that I can mentally try to eject any thoughts of anything for a week haha.

They fired a coworker last week. And i’m likely going to have to move houses sometime come spring because costs keep increasing faster than my salary.

I’ve been making some acquaintances with people online and they seem nice. It’s been cool to meet new people.

I’ve been wanting to maybe get a pocket operator because the idea of making music on a little device that i can take with me sounds like fun. But I’ve heard some conflicting reviews. The prices feel a little steep.

I’ve been personally wondering about these laws. I am thankfully in a place that doesn’t require them yet. But I assume that some asshole somewhere is going to want our data and say “wow that sounds like a great idea.”

My assumption is that i would feed false data to bypass if possible and then say fuck it and not use whatever service it is if I don’t really need to use it. If I do need to use it and have no choice, then I guess I’m SOL and will have my data breached at some point because none of these services seem to know how to lock down their shit properly.

Sorry for the frustration lol. I just think this kind of thing is stupid and a way to steal info or watch people. I don’t think this is genuinely about safety or helping children. Especially with the latter it always seems governments throw in a bundle of laws along side any “protect the kids” laws so that they can fly under the radar while screwing people over.

I’ve been humming and hawing over if I should get this game.

My assumption was that people would play friendly or cooperate more in the early days, and then straight PVP would take over quickly. Is this the case?

The reason I assume this would happen is that there’s very little incentive to take the risk to cooperate when you could end up getting shot in the back and have your loot stolen.

The game sounds like if you were to try and min max, your best option would be to manipulate others to take advantage of any good will. Eventually, people would stop working together and just go straight to PVP as cooperative play would become too much of a risk or a waste of time.

Edit: I also don’t know how to incentivize people to play with a variety of playstyles. If they want cooperation and spontaneity to be a feature in the game, I feel like they would need to have some kind of incentive to make people play in a variety of playstyles. Otherwise, people might just completely gravitate to straight pvp.

Again I could be completely off the mark as I haven’t actually played the game, just watched others play it

I believe the Truck companies think people just want larger and larger trucks every year. I’m waiting until everyone is just driving monster trucks at this point lol
