If the devs can't make a fun game I sure as hell won't make it fun by cheating, I don't know anything about game design or how things fit into a meta narratives. Sometimes, you have to have some trust in the devs (otherwise, why did I give them my money?). A quick look at how other people tackle a problem is also often more helpful, since there is a good chance I'm stubbornly not using some tool in my arsenal.

I use cheats to quickly test things in games lacking an editor, otherwise... the games I play don't lend themselves to cheating, anyway. Cheat codes really don't make much sense when lowering a difficulty somewhere is an option.

    If school made you sour on rice, I found the slightly pricier Jasmin rice to taste way different to the Basmati rice common in cafeterias. In a big sack, they're both pennies per meal, though you should probably check if it's to your taste with a smaller sample first.

    Things can be both popular and bad for a community and/or breaking its rules. It's obvious that this isn't what's happened here, but upvotes alone aren't everything - you could probably get a lot of upvotes with a good meme in any discussion community (because who checks what community a post came from every time before upvoting), or post an inflammatory political take that is bound to get a lot of comments that mods now have to deal with.

    Here however, the Mod simply disagreed.

    You literally divided the protestors into the peaceful ones and rioters, who you call literal terrorists, and have the gall to accuse other people about black and white world views? Surely there are a lot of groups between then in a movement this big? Your worker rights don't come from the people who just sat around peacefully until the people in power got so bored they gave them their rights, most of modern conveniences arrived here with a body count.

    Perhaps a bit of nuance would do you good as well?

    Kangaroos basically do everything we do better when it comes to endurance running, be it distances, average speed or top speeds. And they still get to be incredibly energy efficient while doing so with their unique locomotion style. They absolutely could hunt the same way our ancestors did by simply wearing out prey over extended hunts.

    Only reason they did not evolve that way over their evolutionary history is, I imagine, that the only prey they could hunt in Australia that way are other kangaroos, which are just as efficient at running away over long distances. But you know, carnivory evolves pretty quickly in evolutionary time scales, if anything survives us I believe they could get there in time. We even introduced camels in Australia for them to hunt that way.

     

    Please keep your racist comments to yourself, this is about these 2 people as individuals.

    They're both just arguing semantics, but 1 refuses to elaborate at all and cries about bullying and antisemitism for the slightest pushback.

    The other has a point, but on being called antisemitic he has to point out him being a proud Zionist.

    If they didn't deserve each other, this would be actually infuriating.

    Mastodon screenshot: Person 1 Welcome to Jewish erasure season where many Christians pretend that Jesus wasn't Jewish and a whole bunch of other people pretend that he was a "Palestinian". Person 2 no contradiction. Judaism was his religion Palestine is one of the many names of the place he lived in (he probably referred to himself as a Judean)  just like people calling you Canadian are not wrong just because you're Jewish Person 1 Wow, there's so much wrong (and even just slightly antisemitic) with what you said that I don't even know where to begin. 3 The fundamental error in thinking is that you all talk about Jews, Christians, Palestinians, and NOT about human beings. Person 1 The "fundamental error in thinking" is that you are bullying a Jew talking about antisemitism. Now go away. Red box labled "Bonus" Person 2 I don't think you got me right  I'm a proud Jew, a proud Israeli, and a proud Zionist. I have never been accused of antisemitism.
