I didnt know Canada was Australia. I always thought Canada was too cold for this shit.

Not to be confused with CRAM

Homer’s Odyssey, literally the thing that defined epics and the oldest surviving literature, has a scene, where Odysseus finally manages to return to his home and see his dog.

I wont spoil it, because a movie is coming out. But then again, you had 3000 years to read it, if you still havent read it, do you even care?

Star Rail isnt an mmo. And while it has many “progression mechanics”, they are slowly introduced to the player. And once you understand them, you dont really need to think that much about them. It is basically an anime+idle game.

You watch your anime episode every now and then and you afk farm daily for a couple mins(so that your characters slowly become stronger). You dont need to think loads of time to understand them but i guess it depends on what you mean by loads of times. Maybe i have played many games(mobile and conventional), so i dont have any issues with the systems.

If you want to build a character, you can choose them and the game will highlight their ideal “gear” and “stats”, though those recommendations arent always perfect. If you want to tryhard, you can use this site

And see what gear and stats are ideal for your character. Or just use your brain. Most dps like crit damage/rate, attack and speed. Most supports really love speed. Or watch a guoba video about the character you want to gear. Ultimately, if you afk grind gear, it doesnt take a giant brain to understand that the dps set, wants dps stats, or that the break set wants break damage stats.

I used to believe that too, because it was pointless. But it seems that i was wrong. The fact that it was pointless, means that the corporations felt comfortable with using and abusing that to maximize profit. The fact that they are afraid to do that, indicates how fucked things are now.

So i am ok with corporations using movements for marketing reasons, because ultimately this is the canary in the mine. If the corporations consider it a brand risk, then society is moving towards the wrong direction.

They use the same terms of service for mobile games and they just dont bother to change it for pc games.

The greeks know the way.

Meanwhile, Greece’s national drink is an ice coffee

I am glad the rest of the planet has joined the greeks. Who said that modern Greece isnt producing any new culture?

Noone identifies as rich, because as you become richer, your social circle also becomes richer. So you never really feel rich, because there are other people who are, significantly, richer than you.

If you dont worry about food, shelter and healthcare then you are rich(or at least “middle class”), ie free to do whatever the fuck you want with no risk or fear. You can have very low personal net worth but if your family(and/or society) has your back, no matter what, then you are not poor.

And since Norway has one of the highest home ownership rates, among non shitty countries, then even from a networth point of view, most norwegians probably have 500k+ € networth. Most countries with high home ownership are poor countries, where houses are cheap and shitty(people are migrating out of the country, so a lot of houses are available). Or countries like China and Singapore, where housing is a major priority for the government.

And in before “communism”, Singapore is one of the most capitalistic countries on the planet. But providing housing is a big part of their social contract and how the dictatorship has managed to maintain control over the country for over half a century with minimum opposition. And tbh, the chinese government is similar. Authoritarian but provides economic prosperity/housing in order to keep society stable. Also communist mostly in name but actually capitalistic.

Is it because they are rich and dont want to cook?

A lot of turks living in Germany are(or descended from) poor, uneducated, turkish farmers who were imported to Germany many decades ago, as cheap labour, when Germany needed workers.

Not all immigrants(turkish or otherwise) are like that.

The american obsession with melanin levels is insane. Why cant they be normal and be racist to people who live over the next hill, like us enlightened europeans.

I think homosexuality has reached a level of societal acceptance(at least in the west), that it is ok to be ironically homophobic again.

Then again, some might argue that being against nazis was a societal norm, so being ironically nazi was fine too. Yet here we are now, where being unironically nazi is somewhat acceptable by a large part of the society.

NA engines, ie “NA v8”, doesnt mean “north american v8”, but “naturally aspirated v8”.

For tracking to be useful, it needs data from multiple sources. If it is a brand new incognito session, then it will only have the data you create from that search. If you disable Fingerprinting, it wont have much data and wont be able to reliably and accurately attach or combine that data with other data and accounts.

I just use ddg and for when i want to search something important, i just use Google(in incognito).

Crypto has shown us that valuation isnt connected in any way to reality, all you need is good vibes and belief. There are enough musk fanboys and musk has enough access to capital that if he wants, he can pump the stock to the moon.

We are at end game capitalism, capital is consolidated to such a degree that the market is no longer a market, it is a casino. And the people with the capital are no longer participants in the market, THEY ARE THE MARKET. And the house never loses.

Our only hope is them turning on each other but ultimately the endgame of capitalism is consolidation, not competition. Maybe if trump dies or becomes immensely unpopular, things will get interesting.

Game of Thrones was the most popular series in the world, despite having multiple characters and parallel story arcs. People underestimate other people.

Literally 1984
