Bought it as soon as I got an email saying it was released. Really enjoyed playing 2 with my partner

Pretty sure it’s just expanded and pronounced “for real,” so frfr would be “for real for real.”

The day levels were legendary

I’m not entirely sure how ad blockers work, but my understanding was they prevent things loading from certain URLs. If the ads are embedded into the video, then there’s no ad-specific URL to block

While the overall video would be a different length, video players often don’t count the ads towards the media time. So the deep links should be okay

I have a steam deck… And a gaming PC! 🤯 I plug the steam deck into my TV with a couple of controllers, and now I have a “console” with all my steam games on it that I can use to play local multiplayer games with my partner. It’s also great to take when visiting family

Why complain on Steam? If I remember correctly, League of Legends is downloaded through its own installer and it’s completely separate to Steam

This is why I have so many of these on my backlog, just don’t have the time currently

Fucking sucks for immunocompromised people as well I’m sure

Needless and needle-less 🥁

My favourite one, which isn’t on there, is CULTIC. Awesome story and art, gameplay that switched up often enough to stay fresh, cool setpieces, crunchy headshots.

I tried playing DUSK again recently with the HD update and it just felt dull and outdated compared to CULTIC. I still love DUSK tho

I’m loving this channel so far. I know it because of Yahtzee but Design Delve is my favorite! All the content is fantastic

They deserve it, honestly

And red is less fascist somehow?

What’s wrong with people having it easy if they’re not exploiting others?

Yeah good point. I should have said “interesting idea in theory.” I fully agree with you

The amount of bonus a worker gets is based on the number of miles they complete each month.

I understand what they’re trying to do, but this is just not equitable. You’d have to figure out how to handle this for people who cannot run (such as wheelchair users). This greatly favours those with more free time and less obligations (such as people with no kids). It favours those already in shape and those who have fewer health issues.

This will favour those who already have it better off, which is the opposite of equity.

Good idea in theory, but I don’t like the model where it’s applied based on output.

Hi, fellow go player here!

You are not alone. I’m the strongest regular at my go club, and when I ask if people want to pay even or with handicap, they 90% of the time choose even. I love the handicap system because it makes both sides have a close game, which is inherently more fun for everyone. And skill progress can be seen when their handicap decreases. The most common complaint I’ve heard against handicaps is that it changes the game too much. It does in terms of joseki and openings, but the important stuff which actually decides games—direction of play, fighting, evaluation of the board—still very much applies.

I travelled to Japan recently and played three games at a go parlour. There was no asking for an even game. The stronger players said the handicap the game would be played with and that was that.

In my country, that probably would be seen as rude because we don’t have that honour system. But maybe the solution is to just be more assertive and declare the handicap anyway. As a stronger player, people respect what I have to say, but I have never felt superior to anyone so I’ve always still asked. But if I say a handicap straight away, that respect means that people would probably just agree and play. And if they say that they’d rather play an even game instead, then we can! Maybe the solution is to make it opt-out instead of opt-in.

It’s all just labels, it’s not really the etemology of the word that people care about, but the ideas it represents. The opposite of progressive is conservative. I think if you were to ask anyone in particular, they would say that they’d like to progress some things and conserve others. It’s just the label for who tends to do more of each. So it’s less about saying your not “for progress” and more about showing what ideas you align with. And many conservatives wouldn’t call progressive ideas “progress” if they were implemented; they think it’d be bad for society. So it’s all just words at the end of the day to signify what ideas you align with
