Are they all inhumane, or are the commanders and some of the most brutal soldiers?
just the ones committing war crimes and stealing appliances, but unfortunately they’re indistinguishable from the rest.
anyone on that side that wants to survive this better find a way to surrender.
- Comment on Captcha 1 day ago:
I call them orcs because of their inhumane behavior on the field of conflict.
And yeah, it’d be real, real bad for any poor ivan crossing that border.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy two longest running best friends. 2 days ago:
tbh, I loved SuperGiant’s themes and aesthetics, but not their gameplay. So often early games of Bastion and Transistor felt squishy, or like I was playing underwater - the response loop from button push to effect on screen seemed laggy. Tried both on various platforms, never really got past that feeling. lovely soundtracks tho

i never want to see more conflict, but goddamn if putin’s gonna play stupid games it would be amazing to see them try this shit. imagine tens of thousands of Simo’s lighting orcs up with javelins and an actual military

Of course not. But on the other hand I am not stupid enough to adhere blindly to an ideology.
ah yes, the silly ideology of breathing.
- Comment on German court sends Volkswagen execs to prison over Dieselgate scandal 1 week ago:
I disagree. VW could have crashed their diesel production in favor of hybrids and EVs. They’re playing late to the game catch up now and may not survive at all. Putting off something you know is coming - the end of diesel vehicle prevalence - through deception YOU KNOW WILL RESULT IN MILLIONS OF VEHICLES CONTRIBUTING WORSE EMISSIONS BUT BEING REGARDED AS BETTER - that’s fucking heinous and criminal.
Oh maybe you have an extra biosphere we can slap on to the one being wrecked by CO2? No?
Anyone who knew the truth is complicit in that destruction and we’re only beginning to quantify the harm.

banks / culture series offers a lot of fascinating insights. but yeah, hard to adapt for movie audiences… similar to the constraints of storytelling and level of nerdistry you can cram into a film frame… I felt the same way about Tom Clancy’s mil-fantasy level of intense inspection about the hardware and users motivations… but he rarely went full silly like Dale Brown with the execution, but very little of clancy’s obsession with detail gets into properties made into film.

Even if we magically restart facilities that used to be around, they’ll be on the older, larger architectures we can’t fit in ourr pockets
ok so you’re not wrong on the fundamentals but… you should know - you’d need to go back to the 80s for the fabrication scale to actually have much effect on the size of devices.

pooping in a hole to pooping into a magic toilet that sings you songs while spraying you with water.
which then sends the poop where? down a hole.
it’s holes man, holes all the way down

so re: encryption - if you can muddle your messages meaning and transmit in unencrypted mode, that convo can hide in the huge volume of calls happening all the time.
once you go through the trouble of encrypting it and running it through spectrum hopping and other security methods, you’re simply pointing two REALLY BIG FUCKING ARROWS at the convo participants that say “THESE GUYS HAVE SECRETS THAT SHOULD BE REVEALED WITH BRUTAL METHODS”, your encrypting the messages actually draws attention.

warfare looks pretty much like today, only in space
not even that. warfare looks like what someone from the boomer generation thought warfare looked like in WW2. But really it’s what movie warfare from WW2 looked like, because showing actual war would confuse and bore people. lucas was enamored with serials.

- Comment on Let's play this game again 1 week ago:
you gain super speed, but cognition remains the same. your day is a constant struggle to plan out a meticulous series of moves, otherwise you’ll destroy your house trying to walk downstairs. this becomes particularly vexing for those middle-of-the-night strolls to the pisser. perhaps if you survive long enough you can adapt to the situation, but that seems unlikely.

no shadows
it’s early evening. magic hour. no direct sunlight, the sun is hitting the atmosphere and diffusing light all over the scene.

I wonder how much the fines would need to be in order to get people to fucking stop.
