Final Fantasy hasn't been like that for a long long time. They make ARPGs now. Check out gameplay from ffxvi or the vii remake, it's high paced action action.

Many of these folks are still going to hold their nose and vote for Biden. A lot of these takes are valid criticisms without necessarily meaning they aren't voting for him. Hating every candidate and voting for one anyway is a long standing tradition here in Canada.

Wipe away your tears, chill out, we're just having fun playing around, this isn't a serious discussion. Go rain on someone else's parade.

Yessss! There's not a lot of data on permaculture yet, but it's a promising system. The homeopaths have really taken a shining to it and they pollute anything they touch with made up data and inflated price tags for white, faux-educated yuppies. There's a lot of superstition mixed in with evidence based best practices in permaculture.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying you don't need to be an asshole to disagree. You don't need to "tear down" beliefs and "not play nice". Being rude to people for being wrong just makes them dig deeper into being wrong out of defensiveness. It isn't about edification, it's about finding an excuse to be mean.

That said, other people's education is not my responsibility. Taking the time and energy required to correct a random stranger about what shape the earth is isn't going to change the world but it will take a toll on me. Being wrong doesn't make them a bad person. Being a jerk to them for believing so does. Believing in a flat earth a symptom of fundamentally flawed reasoning skills that I don't have the time or energy to deal with. If someone believes the earth is flat, I'll politely disagree and state my opinion, but ultimately I'll let them do them. Who cares. I choose my friends, they won't make the cut.

An AI using what I say to train it will only make AI more like me. As far as I'm concerned, that's an improvement that may help others while not affecting my life one iota. It's not like it remembers who said what, it all just tweaks the algorithm.

Advertisers have been recording and storing what you say word for word to build a profile specific to you, containing your deepest, darkest truths so they can trick you into giving them more of your money. Who cares about AI training on publicly posted comments, it's just taking energy away from the real privacy issues.

In Voyager, the ship is the lagoon. It's probably got the same square footage as the island. Just look at Voyager as static and the rest of the galaxy is moving past it, washing up shenanigans every week.

So you're an asshole, using religion as an excuse to berate and bully people, got it.

In medieval times, when you had the flu, the prescription was lots of water. Not to flush your system and keep you hydrated as is modern wisdom, but to balance your humors, which is made-up nonsense.

I could but I'd rather not. With a controller in one hand and a mouse in the other there aren't many buttons near my fingers, I'd have to let go of one to do some stuff anyway for some functions. Plus it makes UI glyphs flash between keyboard and controller which is irritating.

She's always this small, fair skinned dark featured woman, but more importantly is her strength and gentleness, and how they empower eachother. The subtleties are differently from series to series, but they're all good portrayals of a complex, interesting character.

Explore a 1:1 scale Milky Way in a meticulously designed Starship alone or with friends. Try the tech demo on Steam, run through the cold and dark startup tutorial then find cool things in space. It's already a lot of fun in its barebones state.

Explore a 1:1 scale milky way galaxy alone or with friends on a meticulously built Starship. I suggest trying the tech demo on steam, running through the cold and dark startup tutorial, then finding your first black hole. It's a lot of fun even in its bare bones state. Very friendly discord with active devs, too.
