Fall of Civilizations, though those are podcasts first. All of them are amazing.

Lockpicking Lawyer makes the best short videos. Not “yt shorts”, it’s just that it takes him 2-5 seconds to pick open the vast majority of locks, the rest of the video is his comment on the lock quality.

JoshStrifeHayes has 3 separate channels now, but that main channel that deals with MMOs still makes quality content in my opinion, but not as often. I also enjoy him playing the old games on JoshStrifePlays.

I mean, the moment you see a passage that barely fits a child and you think to yourself “Hey, I should get in there!”, you’re just aiming to be the year’s winner of the Darwin Awards.

I guess human life in India is cheaper than the equipment to safely deal with electricity

web/low memory alternatives to Krita and GIMP please

recently I bought a Chromebook, I love it so much, it has Linux container enabled and I downloaded Firefox, GIMP, and Krita, but my Chromebook is only 64GB, so that can be a lot!!! So what web apps or low storage alternatives can I use?? I know Photopea, but what about drawing? Thank you!!

I live where the govt gives absurdly large subsidies to bus companies (~500 million dollars per year) and the service as a whole still sucks balls. During peak hours, it’s not uncommon for a bus to not stop because you literally wouldn’t manage to get in.

One thing to keep in mind is that there are many companies that are little more than state parasites, companies that wouldn’t survive against real competition, yet all the blame or any misgivings ends up on the “evil big gubmint” just because.

Hi, Academi (formerly Blackwater) rep here, would you like to further privatize your war endeavors?

The argument against private armies has less to do with efficiency and more to do with dealing with coups from wannabe tyrants. If even “loyal to the state” armies can have internal schisms and take over the government, what can someone expect from an army whose sole reason to exist is “money”?

I guess they think they have nothing to hide, because they don’t know, or don’t care about, how their own information can be used against them.

Because it doesn’t happen in an obviously invasive manner, they don’t think it’s a big deal. It’s harder to associate an abstract concept to actual value.

I despise that kind of lighting because it’s so fucking dim at nighttime. The places that still have physical menus apparently expect everyone to pull up their cellphones’ flashlight to read it.

One place I went last year also had some boardgames, but only opened at night and only had that shit dim yellow light. Reading anything was nearly impossible and even the colors of the game pieces were blending together, “is this red, pink or orange?”

Aladdin could just wish to be the most powerful sorcerer of the world, turn into a giant snake and fight Jaffar. No way that would backfire

I think I remember the human chaff (Krilin, Yamcha) asking if Shenron could destroy Vegeta and Nappa’s ships while they were still en route to Earth.

I also remember that, after beating up Cell, Krilin wanted 18 to become human, but that was “beyond” what Shenron could do.

Anarchism can only exist when there’s a single individual not interacting with any other person, period. Every human interaction immediately breaks any sort of anarchism, there will always be some agreed upon behavior, whether implicit or explicit, violently enforced or not.

I suppose most ancaps are actually minarchists, or “minimal state” proponents, because capitalism fails terribly without laws and some way to enforce them. Without a state (even as small as a group’s leadership), “ownership” doesn’t exist, whoever’s stronger owns the thing. You blink, you lose. You die, it’s first dibs. Fell for a scam? Too bad, you should’ve been smarter. Got captured and sold into slave labor? Too bad, you should’ve seen that coming. Someone stole your stuff? Too bad, you should’ve secured it better.

I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

They could have easily crammed the Steam Deck full of stuff to make it hard to use for piracy - locking down everything, making it usable only to play games you legitimately own, force you to go through who knows what hoops in order to play games on it. That’s what Nintendo or Apple or most other companies do....

For any game with online components, the “ideal” way to combat piracy or cheating is with leaving as much stuff on the server side as possible, not unlike an MMO. Anything left to client side validation will be hacked.
