No, surely all will be good if we invest in so-called “AI”, war and the distopian surveillance state. /s

No joke: Economists do kind of fulfill the role of priests in that they explain the “necessary [fake] world order” to the masses.
Saying “Capitalism is a bad system” gets you comparable comments from economists as “Gods don’t exist” gets you from priests in a religious society (if not worse).

Lo idea about theeenglish dub/translation, but if you can ignore that they had like a dozen voice actors for a whole island, the German voice acting is really good. Good look finding that mod.

Thief 2 and Gothic 1 and 2. But I think those 2 are ok to run on modern systems.

The price comparison is that it costs $0 to have a genAI make your logo and more than that to pay a human.
At least until enshittifaction hits big time.

Reminder that the original creators kinda don’t want you to pay for the game anymore, since all of the profits go to the shitty rights-holder. If you miss this claim, simply *redacted* the game.

AFAIK: Yes. But it’s supposedly a pain to set up, so I’ll never know the difference.
- Comment on earth, fire, water, wind - it's not hard 1 month ago:
I had to memorize every element until Radon in 2nd Semester. Just position and therefore the amount of protons (the “order number” idk in english), but still: such a waste of time. When we asked “y no table of elemens?”, our prof said that we should be glad that we had a system to memorize.
I asked a chemistry teacher about this and he was baffled that we had to do this.
The best part? I wasn’t even studying chemistry! But rather general “engineering science” which had a lot of focus on material science. But chemistry was my least favourite science. I wanted all engineering but chemisty. ;_;

- Comment on Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse 1 month ago:
They can more or less spontaneously form on steep, snow-covered slopes. Pretty much impossible to predict, where they form (maybe you can guess, based on the weather, but I’d be quite a guess).
Disclaimer: I’m no snow-scientist. But I grew up in the alps and I went ski-mountaineering a bunch of times.

Well, then good luck, finding that out.

That pit probably wasn’t there a few weeks before. It’s not like this stuff gets puton maps.

You don’t have to go down the same way you came up.
Why don’t you just shut up about stuff you have no idea about.

- Comment on Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse 1 month ago:
Skiing is usually used to refer to skiing on maintained ski areas downhill or cross country skiing.
No true scotsman fallacy.
Ski mountaineering is more like skiing than cross-country skiing. It’s quite common in the alps to do that and you almost never go on prepared tracks. The mountain where I spent my teenage winters after school doesn’t even really have an official, prepared track, because it’s too steep.
As I said: you have no idea.
Doing it on foreign terrain which you clearly don’t know well enough and at speed is leaving the bounds of regular skiing.
I ain’t saying it was smart. But it’s not “extreme”.
- Comment on Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse 1 month ago:
It’s way more liekely to be ski mountaineering. It’s quite common in the alps and you almost never go on prepared tracks when you do.
If that’s “extreme”, then Austria is full of extreme sports folks.
- Comment on Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse 1 month ago:
And this ain’t skiing.
Sorry to be so blunt. But you’re either very dumb or you have no idea about alpine skiing.
And I need to reiterate that the Darwin award is pseudoscientific and eugenicist-adjacent.
- Comment on Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse 1 month ago:
this wouldn’t happen when prepared adequately and behaved appropriately
I agree. But this is hardly extreme skiing.
