No, not talented just brazen. That's what the "big lie" is all about. Being able to lie about so much at once, people really can't wrap their head around just how much lying is happening.

"It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously."

Because if you start criticizing how they're making up stories about mass graves now, imagine what happens when people start going back and doing that to previous stories.

Yes, value is subjective and personal. If one person likes apples more than oranges they would likely see the value of an apple farm more than an orange one.

Labor is just energy spent, if it's not spent on something most people value as positive then it's either a waste of energy or possibly even a negative.

This will just get them to offload it to their friends and families. Unless they start getting locked up with significant punishments then they will skirt the rules in every way possible.

Yeah the only party that even close to represents white canadians is the PPC, and even then they only really want to slow the tide and make it not quite so destructive.

American Krogan made a great video of the propaganda turning Australia to open their borders. Australia had an explicit "White Australia Policy" which they undermined and dismantled.

Even now you will have people sharing images and loving it, but if you realize it's AI and point it out they immediately performatively hate it.

It's like with Unity games, it's trash when it's just a marketplace asset flip but that doesn't mean every game made with that engine is trash. For a really great AI image you wouldn't be able to tell either way.

When you look at the demographic shift third worlders on the internet basically act and feel like AI bots anyways.

Yep, women in the work force in addition to contraceptives basically tanks the fertility rate of every country.

Any culture that decides women should spend their most fertile years not as a mother is destined to wither and at the very least heavily reduce in population.

As a reminder Japan has the lowest out of wedlock births (2%). They have roughly the same birth rate as countries like Italy and Spain (1.3), which are about 30-40% out of wedlock births.

This has been in the works for a while. I predicted she would be next 2 months ago when she started doing a ton of collabs. I did not expect Mumei, I wasn't watching her to hear about her health issues though.

Gura had stopped regularly streaming for years at this point. I don't know what the straw that broke the camel's back was, but it was clear this was going to happen sooner or later.

I'll miss her. She sounded optimistic during Fauna's graduation call in so I'm assuming she does want to continue streaming afterwards.

They got the names and emails of all the jannies and mods. This has been a long time coming.

Yeah, I do leatherwork as a hobby and the stuff you get from stores or Amazon is very cheap. They will put a small thin piece of leather over fabric or filler, if they use real leather at all. To get something actually quality you need to go to small handmade shops, or buy on somewhere like Etsy with a custom order.

For Lord of the Rings my favourite ones are narrated by Rob Inglis.

Yep, they basically made it illegal to manufacture things in the US at any reasonable cost. The US is very much not free, as this video helps illustrate. Under the guise of "health and safety" they swept the rug from under everybody's feet.

Despite the fact that they like to hide behind the title of "democracy" he is 100% a dictator. They have tried to oust him multiple times but he keeps going back.

I am fairly certain that after he is gone israel will either collapse from infighting, or go on a total warpath in the middle east to the point that the US will not support their fall.

For the history of the US the majority of the government's revenue was from tariffs until about 1920. That's when they started to bring over income tax. So the choice generally seems to be you tax your own citizens by raising the price of things from outside, or you outright just take money from them.

Yeah Akiko Shikata makes great music. I love the stuff she did for Umineko too.

Yes, they want to be known as good artists and feel important rather than for the sake of good art. For somebody who just wanted more good art, then they would welcome more tools for the sake of creativity and fast prototyping.

It's the same reason they always demand recognition like having people credit them and being upset about having their art they posted for free online being "stolen" and posted elsewhere, because they aren't getting attention from it.

I can only imagine when the actual press is taken back and they're forced to write things like this into their little hugboxes like bluesky.

It's a cop out, because it does clear things but there's no reason that it has to respawn all the enemies. All they need is a check for each camp that if you clear it, then they do not get respawned.

No archive of the tweet since I believe he privated his account. Here is a backup of the image.

Yeah being forced to use all your weapons does work since they always have more available. I do wish it took a bit longer for them to break though.

The blood moon always annoyed me though. It felt like there was no point clearing enemy camps if they just keep coming back.

Summer wars is great. I feel like it's a bit too similar to Digimon our war game though.

I love the open world exploration on the last two, but at some point it does trivialize the combat. You can climb up and fly over basically everything.

I do think it needs more traditional combat focused dungeons with spacial puzzles. For Zelda Echoes of Wisdom it had some of that, and I enjoyed the forest dungeon in that game the most. I wish all of them were more like that one in terms of complexity.
