- Comment on you don't know how good you've got it, kid 8 hours ago:
ere’s the thing. You said a “heron is a crane.”
Is it in the same class? Yes. No one’s arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies cranes, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls herons cranes. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing.
If you’re saying “crane class” you’re referring to the taxonomic grouping of Aves, which includes things from nutcrackers to eagles to jackdaws.
So your reasoning for calling a heron a crane is because random people “call the tall ones crows?” Let’s get emus and ostriches in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. A heron is a heron and a member of the aves class. But that’s not what you said. You said a heron is a crane, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the aves class cranes, which means you’d call swans, penguins, and other birds cranes, too. Which you said you don’t.
It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?

Definitely the bottom of the top.

Eh, doubtful. The initiative got a shitton of extra coverage as it was nearing/reached the goal. They would have preferred if it went a lot slower.

That’s crazy!

It’s not just for the hell of it!
Invalid votes will be removed when it’s time for the final tally, so the initiative needs a solid buffer to still he over a million after.
There’s been a talk of some people using bots to inflate the numbers in a misguided attempt to help the initiative, so every vote is still very welcome.
Also, I kinda want to see just how high Finland can go above the threshold.
Tell your friends!

That’s good news. Means the initiative has a shot.
It was disquieting back when they were just flat out ignoring it.

Larian has close to 500 employees across studios in seven different countries. They’re definitely the good guys (at least for now), but they are not an example of a small indie studio.

Some definitely were, but hopefully not too many. There’s still almost a whole month left to build up a solid buffer.

It’s been like this for a while and the actual page where you sign the initiative is down right now apparently =D

Nah, the reason ads are bad is because they poison your mind down to the unconscious parts. It doesn’t matter if the company behind it is moral or not, it’s still memetic pollution.

No need to do the math, this site has you covered: stopkillinggamestracker.pages.dev
Right now we need 1669 per day remaining, though that number is probably going ot be smaller by the time you click the link.
Worth noting that the actual target is somewhere above one million, since there’s probably some invalid signatures mixed in and the initiative needs a million even after these get removed. Still, it’s looking really good.

- Comment on Poop In A Box 2 weeks ago:
Yeah. The worst part was that the main character was trying to figure out why there are robots attacking him and then during one fight scene his arms get wrecked and we see they are robot arms and I was like oooooh! he’s a robot himself so the protections towards humans don’t work for him! That’s clever! And then the next scene he says he lost his arms and has robotic prothesis and none of that matter and the actual explanation was dumb.
That pissed me off so much.
