  Oh for sure! I just thought in their heads was a certain kind of business savvyness to reach their position. But it seems they just hear the echo of their own voice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CEO Asks ChatGPT How to Void $250 Million Contract, Ignores His Lawyers, Loses Terribly in Court⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  This is so dumb. I never believed the hype around CEOs, but I still thought they needed to have something, anything, to reach their position.

  But the artificial dumbness time really reveals how many of them simply had simply dumb luck and no morals. And that was apparently enough for all of human history because their underlings protected them from acting to stupid. And now they think they don’t need those underlings anymore. Well, at least I can laugh myself to death before the climate wars.

  The translation is a bit off, OP posted the original German version and there it said that the king says not to press the red button, the one that destroys the whole world. So you are right that pressing the button will kill him too.

  Let’s try to explain compression with a mathematical example:

  You have the numbers 10, 35, 56 and 59. You form an average out of those values, which is 40. Now you give that average number to me. You tell me it’s made up of 4 numbers and ask me what those numbers were. I can form a guess, based on other examples you send me before and told me afterwards what numbers were in there. But I will at most randomly guess the right values by chance.

  Compression is nothing different than this example except the mathematical numbers represent colors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Super Robot Anime suggestions?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Knights of Sidonia has great visuals and lore ideas but boring storytelling and characters.

  Argento Soma had interesting aliens and story but the robots were pretty basic looking.

  Bokurano has great visuals and very interesting story, but it has some heavy topics. (Epstein related…) Also I think the manga is better, but the p is worth just for the song.

  Fullmetal Panic has move robot battles, but you might not like the combination of highschool sillyness and serious war story.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Evangelion Franchise Announces New Series⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Kind of. Spoiler free version for Rebuild: Shinji grows up and learns to take responsibility.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Evangelion Franchise Announces New Series⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Anno is not involved as far as I know. But yes, the Rebuild movies gives the whole series a proper ending. Continuing now gives the very high chance of destroying that, in my eyes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘This shouldn’t be normal’: developers speak out about bigotry on Steam, the world’s biggest PC gaming storefront⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I disagree. Avoiding media because of certain themes is perfectly fine. I for example will not play games like Hatred or Nazi Games, no matter how good they could be. It’s the kind of themes they try to avoid which show how scared they are of everybody around them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2 North American 4 you has been created⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Most often the changes I saw till now is the missing (red) cabbage and the bread is different.

  But yeah, I’m with you: I haven’t yet found one that is better or even equal to the real one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2 North American 4 you has been created⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I want to protest the Döner one. Other countries sell something they call Döner, but the similarity is superficial at best to a real one. It’s a fun little thing I do on vacation in other European countries: try to find a “Döner” and see what travesty they give me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that Politico is a subsidiary of Axel Springer, a right-wing propaganda house⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Easy, show me the left aligned billionaires that own media channels.

  George Soros is an often used Boogeyman by the far right, but as far as I’m aware he doesn’t own a media empire like Springer, Murdoch and all the other ghouls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games you fell out of love with.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For me it was Warframe. I adore the style of the game and it’s lore. The gameplay and variety of the different weapons and characters gave me a lot of fun playtime. But the way RNG is used and how timed special missions are abusing dark patterns became more and more clear, the longer I played.

  And at a certain point I realized the addiction it nurtured in me and I had to stop cold turkey and never touched it again afterwards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I worked some prison and jails. They always put this big heavy green thing on you if your on suicide or solitary watch. My question is if Epstein was on watch then how did he suicide?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Normally I would agree, but this one does have really strange occurrences. First there is no camera feed, then the camera feed released is strangely missing exactly the time around his death. Like how many strange occurrences does it take for you to say: wait a minute, why is it so hard for them to prove everything happened as they said.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More games like Road 96?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think Pyre would fit as well, next to Hades. Pyre has a bit choice based difference between the story development in contrast to Hades, but it’s still linear for the majority of the game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"It is out of the question to let a boss run rampant" - Ubisoft workers strike against "disastrous" cutbacks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  For sure. Is not like the bosses at other big companies are magically better. They select for the same criteria, so they get the same crap.

  And honestly, AAA industry should go down for 99% of them. The way they treat their workers is not something that should be supported.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"It is out of the question to let a boss run rampant" - Ubisoft workers strike against "disastrous" cutbacks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Again: And who is responsible for that innovation? The workers or the bosses?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Deadlock Major Update — Old Gods, New Blood⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks interesting, especially the patron design. But the new heros look more like overwatch than deadlock too me, the faces look too pretty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2025 Steam Awards winners have been revealed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good thing that the award is not about you or me liking it but instead about INNOVATIVE gameplay.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2025 Steam Awards winners have been revealed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, people should pick by considering the nominees, not by whichever name they recognised most.

  But if you seriously tell me that ARC raiders is more innovative than a game where you yell into a microphone to activate your spells in a wizard Team Deatchmatch, I doubt your sincerity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2025 Steam Awards winners have been revealed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing. Steam Award are sadly popularity awards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So far...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly I’m annoyed at Shield Hero for the possibilities they wasted. Make a defensive hero? Emphasise the importance of support and team work in a fight instead of raw power on a single individual? Naahhh, screw that! Let’s give the support hero the uberpowerful aggressive mode and make him the messiah and single saviour.

  Arrrghhh, whyyyyy?!?!??

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨who was the aggressor in cold war?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean Cuba was a crisis and dangerous for sure, and the USSR pushed it to the near breaking point, but I still find it funny that the USA got nervous when strategic rockets were close to them, something that was true for Moscow nearly the whole time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨who was the aggressor in cold war?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Both sides were the aggressors in general and each side had moments where they were the more active part leading to confrontations.

  I don’t think the cold war can be described as one single conflict with a clear aggressor, which is the whole point why it is called a cold war.

  I’m not knowledgeable enough if there are statistics about which side was more in the wrong or did more aggressor stuff.

  But for me, knowing that the USA did the Iran and CIA stuff while the USSR did Afghanistan and KGB stuff is enough for me to decide both were elitist assholes that didn’t care for normal humans but just wanted to increase their own power.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come laptops or pc's don't have a "webcam" facing both ways instead of just the user?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because tablets are not normal PCs, but rather big smartphones, which are expected to have cameras.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do other languages use for "magic" words; or names and titles in fantasy and sci-fi novels or cinema?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  While you are right in general, Fullmetal Alchemist isn’t an example of glorifying Nazi Germany. The country is a military dictatorship, they committed a genocide while conquering a neighbouring region and are not portrayed as the good guys. The war and genocide was shown to have long lasting bad effects both on the victims and the perpetrating soldiers. And the leadership is literally working for the big bad.

  Just wanted to clarify, as this is one of the few examples where they play the Nazi card straight instead of going: “nice uniform and marching music”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3182: Telescope Types⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not an expert, but as far as I know, you nearly never see a true single picture, but always a combined one. So they take multiple slightly overlapping pictures who are seeing the hidden middle spot of other pictures.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II to release in Spring 2026⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, they released a demo for Mechanics 2 already?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tyranny: Recommended starting character with a mind to story, not ease of combat?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would also advise to go with magic, since you can generate your own spells here, which is really fun. And you will have a high Lore stat, which will help you experience more lore background of this fantastic works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Change my Mind⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You are right, but Bloodlines 2 is a bad example. I only heard bad things about that game prerelease, more advertisement would not have convinced me to buy it. And the fans were rather taken aback by the changes to gameplay, namely focus on action and removal of RPG elements.
