That’s assuming I could even force my way through any VN to get to an ending.
I’m not a masochist.

That’s a load of crap. Visual novels are such an incredibly low bar on literally every front, if you made a comic or a novel that’s worse than a VN you’d have been actually trying to out-shit VNs.
- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 1 day ago:
I despise visual novels.
They lack the good writing of a proper novel.
They lack the art work a comic can provide.
They aren’t games, but are for some reason sold as one.
They a sub-par mix of things other mediums do significantly better.

Yeah this is also what stopped me from playing Porria. I basically have the same questions as you.

Hypothetically, what would be the advantages of “correcting” this evolutionary mistake in humans?

Hmm…
- Daily porn actually gets boring. Porn will start to become “normal” and so you’ll get desensitised. Why would I want to desensitise myself from porn?
- No thank you. I like the occasional cocktail, but alcohol every day!? Ew no.
- I already do this. :)
- I get 8 hours sleep minimum. Can’t get less. I’ll die.
- My job involves biking… That’s technically not taking steps.
- I already don’t do this.
- That’s too bloody expensive! You think I have a tree that grows money!?

I take personal offence to this. Rum and raisin icecream is great!

Citation like that means it’s a hot topic. Doesn’t say anything about the quality of the research. Certainly isn’t evidence of lacking bias. And considering everyone wants their AI to be the first one to be aware to some degree, everyone making claims like yours is heavily biased.
- Comment on We hate AI because it's everything we hate 1 week ago:
It’s not a perspective. It just is.
It’s not complicated at all. The AI hype is just surrounded with heaps of wishful thinking, like the paper you mentioned (side note; do you know how many papers on string theory there are? And how many of those papers are actually substantial? Yeah, exactly).
A computer is incapable of becoming your new self aware, evolved, best friend simply because you turned Moby Dick into a bunch of numbers.
- Comment on We hate AI because it's everything we hate 1 week ago:
Sounds like anthropomorphising. To you it might not have been the logical response based on its training data, but with the chaos you describe it sounds more like just a statistic.

I think the Waterman Butterfly looks like a complete mess.

That one has the problem that someone might get hungry and eat the slices.
- Comment on Quantum alternative to GPS navigation will be tested on US military spaceplane 1 week ago:
So, this is just INS but with significantly smaller, finer measurements?
I’m pretty sure this’ll potentially reduce the error rate of INS, but not fully eliminate it.

They fucked it with HW3.
- Comment on YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report 2 weeks ago:
They also release DC and Marvel sets with guns. Sure, the super villains have fantasy weapons, but the goons have pistols and uzis.
It’s a weird and arbitrary line to draw anyways, if they really do at the 1900s. Bullet go swoosh and person dead. Doesn’t matter if it’s a cowboy rifle.
It’s also weird they’re fine with swords, maces, warhammers, spears, crossbows, and pole-arms since they’re literal weapons made for murder, dismemberment, gutting, and otherwise turning a human into human’t.
It’s funny with Bionicle back in 2001 because you have this warrior of fire with a flaming sword that is described as being able to lay waste and cause devastation at an impressive scale, but nope. Oh no. That’s not a weapon, that’s a “Toa tool”.
Then 2006 came along and even Bionicles were given straight up guns.
- Comment on YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report 2 weeks ago:
Oriental Expedition had guns. Pistols and rifles.
The Pirate theme had guns.
Exo-Force was literally riddled with guns.
Indians Jones…
The “No Guns!” rule is more like a loose suggestion.

I didn’t say that. When did I say that? XD

Oh look; AI has gotten so advanced that computers now have haut-quisine.
- Comment on YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report 2 weeks ago:
That would be assuming most corporations care about idealogies.
LEGO would sell their toys in Nazi countries simply to make money. Like any other corp, that’s the one and only thing that matters.
Anyway, knock-off LEGO has become just as good as the real thing these days, but significantly cheaper to buy. Perhaps better, since knock-offs often have colours LEGO doesn’t.
- Comment on One Angry Man 2 weeks ago:
I’m not so sure. Most of the big events happen over various wars.
The Mandolorian War.
The Jedi/Sith War.
The Clone Wars.
The Rebellion.
The Resistance.
And these are just focusing on all the wars that are still canon.

I dunno. I like my chili flavoured candy.
Beside, wasn’t chocolate traditionally eaten with chili by the natives? Or was it a spicy coco drink…?

Can’t even get the remaster working due to UE5 and causing huge graphical glitches on Intel cards.
Hope this remaster works better than that.

Sure buddy. Let’s just ignore Twatter and Facebook like that.
- Comment on [Update: Valve Responds] Mastercard Denies Pressuring Steam To Censor 'NSFW' Games 3 weeks ago:
You’re really not paying attention, then. Because that’s exactly what they’re doing.
- Comment on [Update: Valve Responds] Mastercard Denies Pressuring Steam To Censor 'NSFW' Games 3 weeks ago:
But the people on the right are also pushing for censorship. You’re just choosing what flavour of censorship.
In America you don’t have any other parties with more moderate idealogies either. It’s either the one or the other.
So before you go voting for a literal criminal as the opposition, why not first burn down your shitty system and rebuild something better.
