I don't typically have sex with things I'm not attracted to... And even if psychologically my sexual impulse seems different from that of an animal's, it's biologically the same. What purpose does this distinction serve?

What a massive oversimplification of extremely complex socioeconomic and cultural issues. Your argument is either deceptive or ignorant.

I'm on prepaid but I'm paying for data consumption I just don't utilize given the abysmal speeds. I have to use a mobile VPN just to achieve decent peering. Basically to get around this absurd policy I have to switch to anoth

I get about 2mbit w/ 4G LTE on a ~$50 plan... For the first week my phone showed 80-115mbit but that didn't last. My carrier tells me that in order to downgrade my plan I would have to first cancel my phone number and wait a month

Making up a debate? I walked into a debate. Why are you so fixated on making my motives out to be sinister? What debate exactly do you think I'm making up? This entire discussion stems from a disagreement about what qualifies as a &quo

After my comment I gave it some thought and figured that's what you meant in the context of Duolingo, which is a great example of this. I've tried in vain to convince others they're wasting their time (it could be spent more

I'm not pretending anything, and if you think I'm deceitfully engaging in this discussion you need to step back and consider that I have my own understanding of this matter and it may or may not be flawed. > The meaning connote

I should have specified I meant video games, because I can think of a few tabletop / card games which completely remove randomness. I've never heard of Diplomacy and that looks pretty cool. It does seem that if you remove randomne

Bullet spread is present in every modern FPS, with most weapons and not just in hip fire mode. Bullet spread as a stratagem isn't random because the idea is that you can choose: Quick, reactionary hip fire or slow, focused aiming? One

So then what point are you even trying to make? If the lowest common denominator here is still a hacker, trying to make the argument that they aren't technically "hackers" doesn't make sense.

Let's be more specific. The concept in both games is securing equipment which can aid you. Randomness only applies to your drop line and loot dispersal. After you get your gear, randomness is no longer in play other than the circles of

What games have you played that don't feature randomness, exactly? Can you name a single one?

Well that just isn't true at all. Educational games span as wide a gamut in quality as any genre. You just need to know where to look. Sites like https://explorabl.es/ provide rich educational material in interactive f

It's foolish to miss my point twice and then insinuate I'm the one being foolish. I expect no one to run Tumblr as a charity. I never stated any expectations, only explanations. Tumblr disintegrated because they lost sight of th

You missed the point. Verizon only values cheapness over duty to their community precisely because of what I just said. They want to run a company, not a community. The same thing happened when Yahoo was running the show, the bleed-out was

The fact that your mobile internet is so expensive and such bad quality, and Facebook traffic is prioritized and free , is not a coincidence. You are trading ease of use and convenience for the next generation's walled garden where Fa

But you already know how stupid and lazy this idea is. Tumblr may be a company. But it was also a community. Real relationships were made on there. I wasn't big on Tumblr but it meant the whole world to thousands of people growing up.

I don't think I'm playing sandbox games wrong. I've put hundreds of hours into them. That doesn't mean I'm going to find Factorio engaging.

by kakarot 8y ago
This is why, from the beginning, Factorio never appealed to me. I haven't played a single minute of it despite the fact I know I'd be good at it. You may be engineering your own solution, but it's still the solution to someon

I run Wayland on my hypervisor OS and pass through my NVIDIA GPU to a VM with proprietary drivers in order to take full advantage of my card.

As mentioned in the OP, we now have wl-clipboard. :) Furthermore, it's proprietary NVIDIA drivers Wayland isn't supporting, not NVIDIA itself. AFAIK nouveau works just fine. There are many great reasons for not supporting the prop
