I don’t think I watched the blackface episode, but if it was an accident that caused a misunderstanding (basic comedy trope) the joke was on people being over sensitive and raging without knowing and/or purposely ignoring context of a situation (I could as easily say “if you want to do something racist, just claim it was a dark elf”). What was being criticized there became the norm, and the consequences are in this thread - people can’t say the name of that Agatha Christie’s work in the comments, nor you can have a dark elf in Community, because context doesn’t matter.

That flag episode the joke was that everything he was doing was taken the wrong way. He had accidentally set on fire a flag that was behind him and tried to put out the fire, then someone shouts “Hey, there’s a guy stomping the Puerto Rican flag!” and he is chased by a mob…

It’s like that Monk episode where he has to shake hands with a lot of people from a group and the last one is black, and right after shaking hands with the black person he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol, so everyone thinks he is racist and everything he does in the episode just makes him look even worse - because it was taken out of context (he is a germophobe, he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol after touching anything and anyone).

What’s wrong with the last one? Seems like a pretty standard critique of “science” as evil destroying humanity. In Brave New World they had reservations for the savages who still had religious beliefs, and it was a touristic attraction.

Not sure if a troll or just incredible brainwashed… try to pick a history book some time, because in Spain you had communists, and they LITERALLY decided to fight the anarchists instead of the fascists. The bolsheviks simply decided to outlaw all Spanish socialist organizations (it wasn’t the other way around) and sabotaged the antifascist resistance, and it’s the anarchists that enabled the fascists!? Fuck off mate.
I was used to commies saying the Nazis were going to kill the anarchists in Ukraine eventually anyway, so there was nothing wrong with the Red Army killing them first (after selling them to the Germans in exchange of a train ticket), but this stupid and shameful historical revisionism about the Spanish civil war is new to me, what a fucking deranged cult those tankies.

ps: Don’t bother coming back with walls of text. Not gonna read nor reply.

It’s quite surprising to see support taking an issue to devs instead of just repeating whatever is written on their book

The symbolism gave me the same impression (and I was going to argue something about anarcho-communism having nothing to do with bolshevik bullshit), but then I checked the site and the author uses orange for fascism and has positive stuff about communism.

haha been there, however I did succeed on finding it and it was either 1337x or ext.to
it sucks they don’t have -term and “term” to refine search

Oh, because of the flag I thought this was a satire of anarcho-communism, since commie states massacred anarchists

Thanks! :D
I’m working on more profiles now

Thank you :)

I swear people downvoting here would be upvoting articles saying “finally with auto target this FPS game fixed the problem of how hard it is to spot enemies”

“finally, decent inventory management” BULLSHIT! Diablo 2 inventory management is great, what they did now is give more slots because whiny modern players CAN’T MANAGE their inventories FOR SHIT!
This loot filter though, looks great.

Yep, hate when I want to follow some project and they link you to X, Reddit and Discord lol

To people downvoting: are you also mad that Valve/Epic/PSN/etc have to follow GDPR data regulations for EU citizens and keep representatives there, or is sovereignty only bad when a non–first-world country dares to claim it?

plot twist: it isn’t the same guy in every panel.

Countries do this way more often than you think… they have always done that with movies preventing official releases or releasing edited versions, and as for games tons have localized versions since ever, from censorship of nudity in Japanese games in the USA market to censorship of Nazi flags in games in Germany and even LGBT references in tons of Eastern countries. I’d love if piracy exploded because fuck them billion dollar companies, but they usually just change a few art assets and that’s it.

What type of content you fear your government may consider risky? Is someone there in a paranoia of video games causing violence?
Unless they would be banning stuff like GTA, Call of Duty and Battlefield entirely because of violence, I really doubt gamers would go out of their way in enough numbers to cause any ruckus just because they absolutely have to play the version of the game that has an LGBT flag in some building or certain character is transgender.

That’s a very common and very reasonable request, and given the size of Turkey, I don’t think they’d prefer to lose the whole market there instead of having a lawyer in the country to deal with local legal requests.

Only when it’s companies run by manchildren, like X and Rumble, they go on the internet to cry about censorship and shit when they pikachu-face-discover they have to follow a country’s laws to operate in that country.

ps: You are already not buying games when you pay for them on Steam.

You know that thing on video games that stuff is only rendered when the player is looking at it? A simulated universe could probably save a lot of energy by implementing something like that, like particles behaving like waves until observed.

A simulated universe would probably have some hard caps introduced to reduce computational needs, like some minimum temperature things can reach or max velocity.
