  • Honestly prior to the api protest I had somewhat good communications with mods, and by just following the only rule, which is behave, I got around some rule and had enough clarifications about them. The new mods that replaced them are a mess. Even the power mods of the past like that turtle person pale in comparison to what I’ve seen. They don’t even know modding tools such as warnings, temporary bans. It’s like touching a md account for the first time got them power hungry like never before.








  • Especially true for these overedited videos that have an intro, a random interruption in the middle asking you to sign in their patreon, a long explaination which goes around the issue without answering it. If I had to sign in every youtuber’s patreon I’d be broke by now. I have stopped to use youtube as much as before, since video assays have to be about 40 - 1:30 hours long. Well when I had to discuss my dissertation I was given 15 minutes. Also whem I’m asked to present a powerpoint I have about 15 minutes to 20. Youtubers can take whatever they want to do it, apparently. But if you’re talking for so long switch from an assay format to a documentary format please. That is the prooer way to handle it.



  • What you readily described has, as a matter of fact, applications in medicine in thr field of epylexia ande depression treatements, currently in the form of complex electrical apparatus linked to specific areas of the brain. It is however quite an impactful surgical operation, and it requires a diagnosis for a hard to treat series of symptoms that cannot be dealt with otherwise. It is not exactly that kind of stimulation, more like a “turn on - off” certain neural pathways via electrostimulation, but it is a thing.

    would neuarlink do that?

    I don’t think so as it is mostly a general purpose interface that has its main purpose in human - implant (machine) interaction. But there is a way to stimulate a specific nerve in such a way that you can turn into the personification of horniness itself, I haven’t heard of that in a while tho.

    Whoever made the Milk Hill formation: you’re an artist like few other. If we treat these crop circles as land art, this is one of my favourite of all times. Do not hide if you do this - except from the farmers whose harvest you ruin, maybe - it’s…technically difficult.






  • Even in the bible people had to at least do the bare minimum for shit to happen

    Beyond that, there are a lot of good behaviour and principles in there: while some insist on faith alone, it is abundantly clear that the gospel demands action, as there are a plenty of parables for people to listen - they tell you how to behave and how to act in the world - . If you have faith and that brings to actions and good deeds, fine, if you use faith as a trump card (ah, see what I did there), you’re doing something wrong. I have read the faith only arguments, but I will strongly disagree with them. If anything the whole point of the gospel is too act and not to be too formal about it. But I am a little skinny ape, I think as one, and apes like action.


  • Of course I still have the manual of these old games. The characters were always hand drawn and properly described. For rpg they also used a nice medieval fantasy style. A lot of these descriptions were not even necessary but they were cool to have.

    We don’t miss these games because they were inherently better, but because they were fun in their own way, and enhanced creativity due to their own limitations. Also these were console games, so you had a specific time and hardware to play them. It’s not like a moder multiplayer pc game, that somehow follows you beyond the gaming time, and that are played on the same machine you use to work.

    Sometimes I feel like these games are exhausting when they take so much energy. Than you have updates, tierlists and a new meta every week. I used to sit down and play without thinking at anything else on old consoles. Still do. They don’t send me unwanted notifications. Than you have all the lootboxes gacha stuff.

    Games were technically limited but built a simple and fun experience.
