Booms

[carmine monolith]

i like boooms

[toxic relic]

books are better than booms

controversial opinion

[tacit meadow]

Books are great, u read them, visualise it, read again visualise it better

[carmine monolith]

michael bay is my favorite genre

skibi toilet coming soon

[tacit meadow]

Movies juat force there opinion on u

[toxic relic]

huh

books do that too

[half kettle]

PLEASE SCRATCH MY BACK

[frosty tulip]

yeah lmao

[carmine monolith]

michael bay genre=booms

[tacit meadow]

Yeh but its easier to disagree with a boom than a movie

[toxic relic]

how so

[carmine monolith]

ig most people watch movie on autopilot

[tacit meadow]

A movie is 100% this is this and u cant head canon

[carmine monolith]

without challenging a belief

[frosty tulip]

lmao what

yes you can

[carmine monolith]

while books you actively think

and use brain

ig

[tacit meadow]

Books, are. Heres this, but u can imagine it a little

[frosty tulip]

plenty of movies have more open-ended plots where theres plenty of theories

[toxic relic]

yes

i think you just watch shitty movies frog

[carmine monolith]

XD

[tacit meadow]

Im not talking about plot, just visuals

[toxic relic]

and if you're not thinking critically about a movie thats on you

[carmine monolith]

theres also some pretty explicit books out there

[toxic relic]

considering you literally stated you dislike "serious" movies

indeed...

[tacit meadow]

Im not talking about plot tho

[carmine monolith]

expliciy as in very detailed

[toxic relic]

yes

[carmine monolith]

not sexual

[toxic relic]

i understood lmao just wanted to poke the innuendo

[carmine monolith]

fair

[toxic relic]

we know

[tacit meadow]

I just like what i can imagine bettee tha. What you can show me in most cases

[toxic relic]

theres plenty of movies with abstract visuals that let you create your own

[carmine monolith]

interstellar does that... alot

[toxic relic]

french slow cinema

[carmine monolith]

too much....

[toxic relic]

thats understandable

[carmine monolith]

i liked interstellar but the ending was a bit wonky for me

[sacred schooner]

the church's inquisition is bouta knock at your door for having a sinful book

[toxic relic]

i like books over movies/tv as well tbh

i just enjoy reading more than watching

[sacred schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/inquisition-monty-python-spanish-inquisition-walk-in-gif-17117394

[toxic relic]

its more active in general than watching-even when im not passive with that

[carmine monolith]

church will burst into flames entering my home

[toxic relic]

explicit as in detailed

[frosty tulip]

Wheres your copy of the Holy Flame?

[frozen ember]

https://tenor.com/view/bootcamp-gomerpyle-privatepyle-zoomin-zoom-gif-23477019

mfw holy nation be yellin at my bug hash loving ass

[toxic relic]

the inquisition wouldnt make it past the dong vase i have in my entrance

weaklings

[carmine monolith]

surely this gentlemen will learn and grow within the army, and become a decorated petty officer and retire with honors

wait, dong vase?

[toxic relic]

yeah

[frosty tulip]

mfw UC be yelling at me for not paying taxes

[toxic relic]

its shaped like a

[carmine monolith]

oh

[tacit meadow]

I changed my mind, its not avatar

Superbad

[carmine monolith]

how big

[toxic relic]

superbad is good

[toxic relic]

40 cm

[carmine monolith]

average sized

[tacit meadow]

I had a mad crush on emma stone for like most of highschool

[toxic relic]

not as big as i am

ayo

[carmine monolith]

emma stone

[frosty tulip]

21 jump street was a pretty good movi

[carmine monolith]

name rings a bell

[merry lake]

Might not play build 42 for now

[carmine monolith]

who is that

[toxic relic]

nah

[merry lake]

My pc cant handle it for some reason

[toxic relic]

superbad had a creative vision man

21 jump street didnt

[tacit meadow]

The girl from super bad, and crazy stupid love. And some other shit

[frosty tulip]

bah, I don't need a creative vision

I just want dumb fun

[toxic relic]

the cinematography in a random teen comedy didnt need to go so hard

superbad was fire

[merry lake]

By that i mean i get controls lag and just bad lag

[carmine monolith]

Ah i see

im also hilaripusly bad at knowing actors

[toxic relic]

i watch cloverfield for dumb fun lmao

[frozen ember]

I love working for holy nation!
lets me know just who i am!

[toxic relic]

or transformers

[carmine monolith]

like i barely know any actors at all

[tacit meadow]

Mm, me too

[toxic relic]

tbh i hate that dude in 21 jump street

the ripped one

[frozen ember]

ngl tho since the FMJ shorts been popping up again i keep getting the marching songs stuck in my head 😄

[tacit meadow]

I recognise the ones i like while on screen

But i forget them soon after

[carmine monolith]

i know like, a couple marvel ones, keanu reeves and david tennant

[frosty tulip]

the best part about HN is getting one of your hivers sent to Rebirth and having them become a martial arts god and beating the shit out of every guard and just casually walking out of the place

[toxic relic]

this guy sucks

cant act for shit

[tacit meadow]

Idk if iv ever actually watched a keanu movies, i just hear that his a good guy and also an actor

[merry lake]

Welp imma take a break from project zomboid for a while

[frozen ember]

i cant wait for kenchese 2 when things are more fleshed out

[carmine monolith]

yeah the first john wick movie was really fun to watch, and they are a fun guy

[merry lake]

Mainly played that game for a while now

[frosty tulip]

HN are probably much less fucked in it.

[frozen ember]

while its cool being able to constantly train on goobers you'd think they would just execute you at some point

[toxic relic]

john wick has insanely good fighting scenes

[frozen ember]

i think that has to do with the actor also bein interested in the craft

[frosty tulip]

Considering the lore for Kenshi 1 is that HN have become way more extremist over time.

[merry lake]

I wonder if you can have project zomboid with no zombies and just bandits

[frozen ember]

like keanu would go to shooting ranges apparently and trial stuff out

[carmine monolith]

yep

[sacred schooner]

I purposefully ignored that

[merry lake]

Basically post apocalypse but just humans you need to deal with

[carmine monolith]

and there was also alot of detail put into how guns actually behave

[frozen ember]

dunno how much a jump its ognna be tho

[frozen ember]

bro thinks he's playing anythin goutside the zombie genre

but sure could be done ig

[burnt kite]

is there a lore reason to keep going

[tacit meadow]

I cant see why not. Not yet i assume, i dont think project zom has npcs yet

But eventuallt im sure u could

[merry lake]

Theres the bandits mod

[frozen ember]

it strengthens your resolve

[sacred schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/kenshi-gif-26724147

[carmine monolith]

you can turn zombies off

[frozen ember]

also pizza

[carmine monolith]

and install a bandit mod

[merry lake]

Ye

[carmine monolith]

theres a few popular ones

[merry lake]

What i can do is make a nuclear post apocalypse scenario

[carmine monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/looking-for-food-nat-geo-explores-patrol-hammerhead-shark-hunting-gif-18711715

?

[frozen ember]

also games

[frosty tulip]

doesn't have to be a major jump. Could just be that the HN lets non-humans live near em but still heavily mistreated. Then overtime they started kicking them out and then eventually purging them, sending to rebirth etc.

[frozen ember]

also bacon

[merry lake]

I mwan dealing with human npcs would be harder since they can use guns

And they generally be in groups

[frozen ember]

yeah well all i want is just more immersive interactions with the world + combat executions + toggeable needs + idk what else off the top of my head

[frosty tulip]

oh yeah. A big thing I want carried over from Kenshi 1 though is each of the major factions having significant advantages and disadvatanges to living in their territory.

makes the factions feel much more distinct.

[somber ridge]

put it short, just said to a friend that multiplayer came out and he said if im lying my windows are being put through

indie stone i NEED you to pull through

[frozen ember]

yeah OH also

more quests would be cool

like getting some more xp from following just questlines of people doin stuff

[tacit meadow]

Is there def a kenshi 2 coming

[frosty tulip]

yes.

[tacit meadow]

Cool

[frozen ember]

I know kencheese is supposed to be "make your own story" but that doesnt mean we can follow some scripted sequences from time to time 😏

[fathom bramble]

Back

[frozen ember]

quest things that invovled muiltiple endings and have branching lines etc

[frozen ember]

https://tenor.com/view/mal-de-dos1-gif-18111337

[frosty tulip]

personally I don't care for quests in it tbh.

[proper dock]

Is the doctor a good class in game?

[fathom bramble]

90's Radios go BRRRRRRR

[frosty tulip]

I would like radiant tasks though.

Accepting tasks to deliver shit, mercenary work etc

[frozen ember]

so you just endelslly wander lol

[burnt kite]

lil guy

[frosty tulip]

yeah I don't mind that tbh

Cause a thing I like about Kenshi 1 is that you aren't a chosen one.

You're just some guys

[frozen ember]

how does it feel addin my meme to ur library

[frozen ember]

no im aware, but you dont like some sort of direction from time to time?

[frosty tulip]

nah not really.

I like just doing my own thing

too many RPGs handhold imo

I like having some that don't

[frozen ember]

breh each to their own i suppose

you dont need handholding

[burnt kite]

i couldnt be bothered to learn kenshi

[tacit meadow]

You could have quests that dont need a hero to complete

[frozen ember]

Like, kenshi already has quests and there kinda cool but theres not a lot of them and you can miss em most playthroughs aswell

[burnt kite]

i know im missing out on peak, but

in lazy

[frozen ember]

there like NV quests with branching dialouge and options, and any smuck can do em no need for a "hero"

[tacit meadow]

Hell, you could even have those quests get yoinked by a npc, and then u sometimes just find some random dude on a quest u were on ur way to do

[toxic relic]

you played spess, how are you too lazy for kenshi

[frozen ember]

https://tenor.com/view/anonymous-bites-back-anonymous-epic-win-martial-arts-anonymous-win-gif-14696277

[toxic relic]

if you can figure out spess you can figure out kenshi

[frozen ember]

chat, kill this man

[burnt kite]

you're right

[frozen ember]

(jk) there isnt a lot to learn with kencheese clown

[frosty tulip]

thats pretty much what I'm saying though, radiant tasks. Like courier or mercenary work etc

[burnt kite]

forgot about that

[toxic relic]

lmao

[frozen ember]

all you do is sit there and tell your chars where to go lol

and what to do

[toxic relic]

kenshi is cinema
but if its not for you its not for you

[burnt kite]

i kinda got bored out of all the games i have

[tacit meadow]

Ah, yeh true. That was more or less where i was going with it as well. I guess i just missed u saying that.

[frozen ember]

ngl same tho

[toxic relic]

unlimited games

[burnt kite]

i cant pick one either

[frozen ember]

i mean kenshi is fun, but i suppose i can only take so much endless wandering before i get a tad bored

some people arent wired like that tho

[frosty tulip]

wouldn't be surprised if the Shek Kingdom in Kenshi 2 is far worse than in 1.

[tacit meadow]

All the vids iv seen on kenshi have had just a, heres what i feel like accomplishing in this playthrough

[toxic relic]

understandable, when i get there i take a break from gaming and focus on something else-or i look for something weird and obscure

[tacit meadow]

And then they go do the thing

[toxic relic]

https://devolverdigital.itch.io/sludgelife

[burnt kite]

there's kenshi 2 now?

[proper dock]

gurt: yo

[tacit meadow]

Did u play nuclear throne?

That was a fun game until the full release

Beta was cool

[toxic relic]

i havent no

looks sick

[frosty tulip]

nah not out yet

[tacit meadow]

Same dev, thought u might be the kinda guy to follow indie devs

[toxic relic]

i dont follow them but i do play almost exclusively indie games

will check it out

[tacit meadow]

Trust in plant, that my fave guy

[toxic relic]

i played ape out and heavy bullets from them before

nuclear throne

[tacit meadow]

Heavy bullets sounds familiar and ape out i remember looking at and turning away from

[toxic relic]

ape out is hotline miami but monki

[tacit meadow]

Iv played like, 2 devolver games. And liked 1. But i love there art style

[fathom bramble]

You know, it's interesting that in PZ, you can just Program radios you find on the spot, but speaking from experience that ain't how that works

[toxic relic]

good fun

[fathom bramble]

Gotta use an MS DOS computer with the software and cables

[ruby river]

there is a distinct lack of cat gifs in this channel

please remedy this immediately

[tacit meadow]

Reminds me of the mobile extraction game

[toxic relic]

im sure they simplified it for the sake of streamlined gameplay

still cool that you have knowledge of it irl

[fathom bramble]

Eh Probably

[burnt kite]

devs will add fully functional computers with real DOS on them

[toxic relic]

i dont play mobile games dude

[burnt kite]

in build 69

[fathom bramble]

If only

[toxic relic]

actually

[tawdry salmon]

8,000 years

[toxic relic]

there is a mod that adds a similar thing

[fathom bramble]

I fixed an old Laptop that runs DOS and got a copy of the software on a floppy disk

[toxic relic]

its a full computer interface with retro games

[frosty tulip]

Yoo, fellow Ape Out player

[fathom bramble]

So I can program all of my old Motorola Saber Radios

[toxic relic]

floppy disk is such peak storage its still used as the save icon

https://tenor.com/view/hse-safety-first-gif-27264619

[vital marten]

My saves are floppy?

[toxic relic]

unlike this di-

[tacit meadow]

Start using external hardrives instead

[toxic relic]

[tacit meadow]

Whats more iconic than a black rectangle

[toxic relic]

hal 9000

[fathom bramble]

I got like 40 something floppy disks

[toxic relic]

what type

[fathom bramble]

3.5 inch 1.44mb Imation

I have a small stack that I put radio software on

[toxic relic]

basic but functional

[fathom bramble]

Programming my old Sabers is satisfying

[toxic relic]

real

understandable levels of computer meditation

[fathom bramble]

I can program Motorola Sabers, and Systems sabers right now, once I get the Astro RSS installed I'll be able to do Astro Sabers too

And like every other Astro line of radio

[toxic relic]

are you a radio enthusiast

cool hobby

[fathom bramble]

Sort of yeah

I blame a friend of mine who gave me a box full of old motorolas

[burnt kite]

go back to punch cards

[fathom bramble]

Wanna see the small collection I have? Lol

[toxic relic]

YES DUDE

fuck yeah

post it in #creativity or dm me

[fathom bramble]

One moment

[toxic relic]

there was actually a protest against computerised punch cards

[burnt kite]

reason being?

[half kettle]

whats a punch card

is it the one where you register into work

[burnt kite]

https://tenor.com/view/jerry-meme-tom-and-jerry-meme-jerry-points-get-a-load-of-this-guy-this-guy-gif-11384860625931393733

its a storage type

[frozen ember]

retro game!!

[stable oar]

j*b

[burnt kite]

you punch holes in it, hole=bit

[toxic relic]

hmmm cant remember exactly, i think it was something to do with automatic processing taking away from human effort

but you're talking about the programming method

lmao

[frozen ember]

stand ready

[burnt kite]

oh, as in protest against automatic punch card production

i thought you meant them as a whole

[toxic relic]

nah

Shrek was self sufficient

[toxic relic]

shrek didnt need to socialise

he just did it for donkeh

would you rather fight 1 alligator or 5 snapping turtles

An angry patient

An angry cathetered patient

Trying to keep him from ripping shit out

[toxic relic]

catheter

ive had a catheter a few times

its not fun

[toxic hawk]

Yeah, they cut your vessels and put a tube in

[toxic relic]

catheter vs intubation

[toxic hawk]

Both suck

[toxic relic]

indeed

[toxic hawk]

But cath less

[toxic relic]

understandable

imagine how much ripping a catheter out your dong would hurt

[toxic hawk]

I've removed a femoral catheter before. Easy
Extubing someone

[toxic relic]

thinking about it makes me cringe

[toxic hawk]

Yukes

[toxic relic]

man is growing and evolving

[toxic hawk]

It's actually not that bad. Looks worse than is

[toxic relic]

i mean ripping it out

[toxic hawk]

Oh it's really as easy as just removing the stitches and getting it out slowly.

[toxic hawk]

Yijes

its imperative the cylinder remains unharmed

Absolutely

[toxic relic]

ive seen some poli sci students do shit like that

insane

[dim cloak]

btw HG Wells' War of the Worlds was about WWI, not WWIII.

at least, the original one was

[burnt kite]

im pretty sure i mentioned it, because the term "atom bomb" appeared in The World Set Free

[toxic relic]

what

about world war 1?

[burnt kite]

the term in fiction

[toxic relic]

it released almost 2 decades before hand

[dim cloak]

yeah, the martians were like an analogy for the germans

[toxic relic]

?

[burnt kite]

pluh

[toxic relic]

the book was serialised in the 1800s

[dim cloak]

or something like that

[half kettle]

woahj

[burnt kite]

idk, never read that

[toxic relic]

it may be used as an anology for the war but

[dim cloak]

huh. nvm

[burnt kite]

war never changes

[toxic relic]

unless hg did some brain blast predictions then yeah nah

[toxic relic]

lmao yes

he certainly 'predicted' global conflict

and i think its fine to use it as an anology

but yeah, it released some time beforehand

[burnt kite]

i predict that in at least a decade there will be an armed conflict between two powers

[dim cloak]

pop quiz, was the real first world war

[half kettle]

thats one wide jaw

[dim cloak]

@toxic relic

[toxic hawk]

The hundred year war

[dim cloak]

fair but no

imo a world war has to span across more than 1 continent

and involve more than just 2 powers

major or minor

but you are on the right track tho

[toxic relic]

what are you asking?

[dim cloak]

what is the first war that spanned across 2 or more continents, involving alliances or colonial nations?

that could be classified as a world war

[toxic relic]

you're probably gonna say something like the 'war of independence' or something

[dim cloak]

fuck no

[toxic relic]

ok cool

then hmmm

im not sure your criteria is academically sound

[dim cloak]

just take a guess

but think

[toxic relic]

hmmm the roman-persian wars?

[dim cloak]

hmm... no, i don't think that counts... i'm not sure tho

i was thinking 1600+CE wars

[toxic relic]

idk, spanned multiple continents between roman republic and perthian empire

i see

modern wars

[dim cloak]

kinda yeah

[toxic relic]

kind of

[dim cloak]

when millions of lives could be lost in one war

[toxic relic]

the opium wars?

[dim cloak]

no, as that was mainly european powers vs china, pretty much

[toxic relic]

i mean

that spans continents

[dim cloak]

1 more guess

[toxic relic]

the countless conflicts between colonising forces in america and indigenous people?
the seven years war?

idk

[dim cloak]

you got it

[toxic relic]

ayo

[dim cloak]

seven years' war

[toxic relic]

im only interested in conflicts as a hobby but glad i got it lmao

[dim cloak]

it can arguably be considered the first true world war, as it involved 2 world powers, spanning across multiple continents, via alliances and/or colonies

[dim cloak]

fair enough

same but i consider myself a history buff

[toxic relic]

i only know about the 7 year war cause of frederick the great

[dim cloak]

aka the gay i get it

[toxic relic]

pfft yes

gotta learn the history of my people

[ivory grail]

I got a 100% on procedures for phlebotomy i'm ready for humans

Fuck the dolls

[dim cloak]

phlebotomy?

[toxic relic]

blood

[ruby river]

whats phlembotomy

doesnt that mean spitting

[dim cloak]

ah

[toxic relic]

phlebotomists take blood

and other things

[ruby river]

wouldnt they take phlem

[toxic relic]

no

[ivory grail]

Basically blood collection

[toxic relic]

its phlebotomy not phlem

[ruby river]

wouldnt it be sanguitomy

[dim cloak]

that's... something related to vampirism i assume

[ruby river]

phlem is a different humor entirely than blood

[toxic relic]

phleb is from the ancient greek meaning blood vessel or vein

no

[ruby river]

theres 4 humors in the body

[half kettle]

phleb is an awesome name

[ruby river]

blood, phlem, white bile, yellow bile

[dim cloak]

bruh this isn't the like 100s anymore

[toxic relic]

regardless, fuck yeah dude

[ruby river]

then why are they using terms from the 1000s

[ivory grail]

This is the dolls we were using and we were graded on how to the procedure before we were allowed to go to people

[ruby river]

was it hard

[ivory grail]

We needed to get atleast 85 if we wanted to proceed

[dim cloak]

point is, it isn't that era anymore.

[ivory grail]

You be amazed how simple collecting blood is

[toxic relic]

makes sense

[dim cloak]

damn, good fucking job then man

[ivory grail]

Locationing the veins is probably the hardest thing

[toxic relic]

i get told i have easy veins

[dim cloak]

on a doll, i can imagine

[toxic relic]

i take it as a compliment

[ruby river]

how? theyre literally blue

[toxic relic]

ben, you're being rather vexing

[ivory grail]

Not on many people

[dim cloak]

btw can any of you stand watching your blood get drawn out of you?

[ruby river]

really

[ruby river]

just dont think about it

[ivory grail]

This is one of my friends arms her arms are amazing for blood collection

[dim cloak]

I do, it's very interesting

[ivory grail]

Mine you can't even see the veins

[ruby river]

youre in the hands of a trained medical professional, they cant kill you with a needle

[ivory grail]

I love watching it

[ruby river]

also the more you struggle the more likely theyll fuck up

so dont move

[ivory grail]

The butterfly are my fav to watch

[dim cloak]

i know

[toxic relic]

yes

[dim cloak]

same

[ivory grail]

I mean we can cause nerve damage

[ruby river]

yeah well i can do that too ur not special

[toxic relic]

[dim cloak]

i've had my nose cauterized, as i used to suffer from chronic nosebleeds

[ivory grail]

True true

[toxic relic]

did it smell good

[dim cloak]

and that causes a LOT of blood

[ruby river]

im a meat cutter and i work with saws and knives

i know someone who cut his finger the wrong way and now he can never open it again

[dim cloak]

one time, I had a chronic nosebleed happen while in the bathroom stall. it looked like i was being murdered in there.

and i had to clean it all up, bc i was on shift at the time

there was blood all over the floor

it sucked

[ivory grail]

Then you 100% can cause more damage then just tingling in your arm for a week or two

[ruby river]

when i tell people im a meat cutter they ask me to show them all 10 of my fingers

[ivory grail]

But sadly you lost all of them in the meat grinder

[ruby river]

although i bet if you cut off your finger on a table saw they could PROBABLY reattach it.. right

[toxic relic]

depends

[ivory grail]

I think so if they keep it on ice

And rush you to the hospital

[toxic relic]

you can do some basic cosmetic v tucking if not

[ruby river]

puts it on backwards

[toxic relic]

i like seeing the skin flap

[dim cloak]

"Look what I can do now"

[ivory grail]

Probably happen before, if cutting off the wrong leg is actually a thing that happen

[ruby river]

one of my friends told me he was born with his feet on backwards

so they just uhh

||cut off his feet and reattached them the right way||

this was probably not the correct way to do the procedure

[ivory grail]

I mean i can see that happen

[half kettle]

thats kinda wicked bro...

he can make a sick pirate name

[ivory grail]

I mean can he feel would that cut like the nerves?

[ruby river]

he can barely stand and his feet hurt if he's on them for more than like 15 minutes

i dont get why they didnt just keep them on the wrong way. that would be cool if you could run backwards

[ivory grail]

Should've kept them flipped around

[ruby river]

hey @ivory grail do you play stellaris

[ivory grail]

I played like 5 hours of it

[ruby river]

which of the 4 ascension paths do you think humans are closest to achieving

[ivory grail]

Oh i never made it that far

Which one is the worst?

Because that the one

[ruby river]

theres genetic, cybernetic, synthetic, and psyonic

[ivory grail]

Genetic probably

[ruby river]

genetic modification, cybernetic enhancement
synthetic means turning ourselves into computers so we can live forever

[half kettle]

i dont want to live forever

[toxic relic]

living forever is a nightmare

[vocal token]

Hey guys, I need some help to set up a B42 mod pack with Bandits Week One as the main focus. Do I need the other bandit mods if I already have week one enabled?

[ivory grail]

I mean i would love to live for as long as I want

[vocal token]

Or would I be getting carpet bombed on day one if I already had week one installed?

[ivory grail]

I would love to explore each planet but after that I probably just go into a black hole

[vocal token]

Nvm

[half kettle]

can you imagine how many mental illnesses you'd accumlate if you live for bazillions of years

[harsh vault]

atleast one

[ivory grail]

I mean like I feel like they probably add something to your brain that allow you to like wipe the depression you feel

[half kettle]

hahaha that wouldnt tackle the core issue

you're mentally unstable

[tawdry salmon]

Nah I’d lock in

People will even try to swim in our spillway

Never ends well

[onyx igloo]

natural selection

[vital marten]

It’s like a sims pool after you take the ladder out — no way out

The grounds all around are so mossy you can’t find footing

[onyx igloo]

so why would you swim in a spillway

[vital marten]

Drunk teens on holidays

Probably dares

[stable oar]

the last time i had blood drawn it failed 2 times

[onyx igloo]

you see, this is why i wouldn't do dares lmfao

[toxic relic]

not how that works

[onyx igloo]

mb

i just woke up

[half kettle]

oh man truth or dare was so bullshit?

like they'd ask you to do the most unhinged shit

[onyx igloo]

you gotta give me a few minutes, but until then i will spout bullshit

[toxic relic]

i fucking hate the apocryphal that people use in reference to natural selection

[onyx igloo]

so whats it really mean

[toxic relic]

its not 'survival of the fittest' in the sense that "whatever we consider weak will be killed off and only the strong will survive"

[vital marten]

In the modern day human sense you could just survive by not doing anything at all

Live off mom

[onyx igloo]

i'd figure intellect plays a big part in survival

[toxic relic]

its a term that a philosopher asked darwin to use to describe the process of adaptation that darwin observed that most successful species obtain

[neat moat]

I like the phrase survival of te fittest, you just need to know what fitness means

[toxic relic]

not really no

its adaptation

[onyx igloo]

ah

[toxic relic]

"fittest" means adaptation and socialisation

[neat moat]

how smart do you think krill are, the animal with the most total biomass on earth

[toxic relic]

according to darwin

[neat moat]

socalization?

[harsh vault]

eat.

[neat moat]

I dont see why he'd include that

[toxic relic]

many times have 'intelligence' been mutated away for other things

socialisation as in cooperativeness

[onyx igloo]

don't they just create alot of children to survive

[neat moat]

bears arent very cooperative and they did pretty well

[toxic relic]

how well species form mutalistic relationships with others is key to being a cornerstone in ecology

[neat moat]

and thats worked out pretty well didnt it

[toxic relic]

mutualistic relationships my guy

[onyx igloo]

yes

yes it did

[toxic relic]

thats an adaptation yes

proves the point

[burnt kite]

its so satisfying to get a perfect head punch in half sword

[stable oar]

who needs cooperation when you just eat everything

[toxic relic]

you will run out of food

and die out

[onyx igloo]

plastic

and die

[stable oar]

joking

[neat moat]

I am not a fan of the word still, if implies solitary animals can't be fit or do well

[toxic relic]

i dont think it implies that but i understand

solitary animals are very important

[neat moat]

we love our introverts 🫶

[toxic relic]

they do co-operate, just in ways that the layman doesnt have context for

[onyx igloo]

ecology is starting to sound like an interesting class lol

[toxic relic]

solitary animals build themselves within a web of ecological relationships-thats the context

however, they are peak

and 'fit'

definitely winning

[neat moat]

invest in krill stock today

[ruby river]

is Hardcore Henry considered a 2nd person movie?

[toxic relic]

its fire

i recommend it

[neat moat]

not if you wanna get paid or taken seriously

[onyx igloo]

i've done a bit of biology classes before that seem similar to ecology

[toxic relic]

[onyx igloo]

classes

[toxic relic]

hs doesnt make a distinction

ecology is in that field

[onyx igloo]

yeah

[neat moat]

yeah biology is the unbrella team

[ruby river]

im fasting

[stable oar]

APES was an interesting class

[onyx igloo]

bro my hs doesnt even make a distinction for what grade im in

lmfao

[ruby river]

bro lives in houston

[onyx igloo]

its online btw

[toxic relic]

completely?

[onyx igloo]

yeah

but i learn from outside sources aswell

for fun

[toxic relic]

i dont mind that but how do they grade you?

standard american school grading?

[neat moat]

duck me

[harsh vault]

being more anorexic than fasting, because with fasting its for something traditional, religious, or cultural, but you are starving yourself just to lose weight, which is literally the definition of being anorexic

[neat moat]

guess I won't have a jacket all day

[onyx igloo]

pretty sure

[toxic relic]

elaborate

[onyx igloo]

i choose between 3 answers typically

[ruby river]

im gonna eat sausage soon

[neat moat]

yesterday waa laundry and I didn't finish it

[harsh vault]

why stop

[neat moat]

the jacket was part of the unfinished pile

[neat moat]

I gtg to like

the city

forgot which one

[ruby river]

wait.... i just remembered im all out of sausage. FUCK

[onyx igloo]

eat the meat stick

[harsh vault]

big city

[neat moat]

oh san fran

that one

[harsh vault]

have fun ghoti

[toxic relic]

terrible

[harsh vault]

tell me if you see anything cool

[toxic relic]

you dont learn anything with multiple choice

[onyx igloo]

which is why i learn outside of that

[toxic relic]

i saw some of your homework actually lmao

[onyx igloo]

school is a requirement and knowledge is not

[toxic relic]

if thats how you're graded thats fucked

[onyx igloo]

well i'm getting mostly 80%

so, i must being doing it right

[toxic relic]

master test taker

i remember

[onyx igloo]

mastertaker

[toxic relic]

i used to be such a fucking nerd

[onyx igloo]

[neat moat]

used?

[toxic relic]

i studied for a physics mid year exam so much that i passed out during

[onyx igloo]

like annoying nerd or chill nerd

major distinction

[toxic relic]

still got 96%-the answers i got wrong were so easy that i rage internally to this day

[neat moat]

nerd is a state of being

[stable oar]

i used to be a quiet nerd

[toxic relic]

i was a fucking monster

[neat moat]

a mindset

[half kettle]

STOP

[onyx igloo]

no

[toxic relic]

the only teacher that knew how to handle me was my math and IT teacher

[onyx igloo]

i do not abide by your rules

[toxic relic]

that was back in the day when IT was still new lmao

[onyx igloo]

i like old computers

[neat moat]

unfortunately I still get mid grades

Im too inconsistent

[onyx igloo]

they look unique

[toxic relic]

im also almost sure that the math teacher in my last year was gay

probably why i liked him

[onyx igloo]

my learning method is quite strange

[toxic relic]

big grey box

unique

[onyx igloo]

ah i was meaning moreso the commodore 64

[neat moat]

they should really teach students how to study

[toxic relic]

s'all good man, its not about grades, its about learning

[neat moat]

exactly

[onyx igloo]

i thought that is when IT was new lmfao

[neat moat]

Ik smart enough to know that at least

that and getting that letter grade

for classes Idgaf about

like calc 😒

[toxic relic]

thats a big grey box dude

theyre unique in a way

[toxic relic]

im gonna force you to be interested in calc

[onyx igloo]

not its a big white box

with cool stickers

[neat moat]

"erm, when are we going to use this in our life 🤓"

[onyx igloo]

i think they actually remade the commodore 64 with new parts

[toxic relic]

thats a poor excuse and you know it

[onyx igloo]

lemme see rq

[toxic relic]

it was remade

not really remade...moreso rebooted ig

[neat moat]

what is

[onyx igloo]

yeah your right

i think the guy said it was open source

[toxic relic]

"when do we use this irl"

"why should i learn how to read if all im gonna be is a farmer"

"why should i learn about space if im gonna be working for amazon my entire life"

[neat moat]

I think in the context of modern education its a totally valid question. Especially if its something you dont care about

[toxic relic]

school systems are a condensed version of learning made by a guy that wanted workers to be ready for factories

that question is the logical conclusion of his work

[onyx igloo]

i could probably learn calculus if it was beat into my brain with a rock

[toxic relic]

i think its very dismissive of what knowledge is

[onyx igloo]

thats how i've learned everything else

[neat moat]

Cus education boils everything down to a number, and you are forced to do something. Of couse a lot of people would associate learning negatively and simply not be engaged

[onyx igloo]

learning in school

negatively

[toxic relic]

i think thats being mad at the wrong thing

[onyx igloo]

i still found learning outside of school quite fun

[toxic relic]

you should be mad at the education system, its origin and what it was made for [re: industrialisation and moulding kids to be good workers]

not learning itself

when education is not liberating, it is the dream of the oppressed to become the oppressor

[neat moat]

I mean yeah, but these are people being taught learning is only one thing and are force fed information as a child. So I dotn blame them for not wanting to participate

[neat moat]

education isnt liberating though, not the kind in schools

[toxic relic]

i know

[neat moat]

they teach white washed versions of reality

yee

[toxic relic]

again, the anger is directed at the wrong thing

and i am also aware that we are taught to be mad at learning

[neat moat]

Im just saying I can see why they are upset at learning

[toxic relic]

i understand

[neat moat]

yee

[half kettle]

the only reason to go to school is to get the diploma to show employers you have some sembleance of discipline

[toxic relic]

i just dont like using it as an excuse, ie the logical conclusion of that shitheads capitalist ideals

[toxic relic]

thats what it was made for

unfortunately

[half kettle]

im not gonna live long. probably

[toxic relic]

where is frogski with an irreverent gif

[neat moat]

I was once given a prompt of "how do we stop people from cheating on exams?" I forgot everyone else's response. But mine essentially boiled down to it is impossible to stop people from cheating due to education being boiled down to a number you get on an exam, and said number being overemphasd. It was a systemic probelm and the only way youd fix that is to change the incentive entirely

guys the drive is almost 2 hours 💀

[toxic relic]

load up a 2 hour deep dive

[toxic relic]

true

[neat moat]

nah I dont want ads

I'll put on the radio to play some old music

hello soup person

I leave now

[polar kernel]

this sounds really complex i would just suggest you kill anyone caught cheating without trial

[toxic relic]

ads

[polar kernel]

see how many people do it then

[toxic relic]

me when i told you about youtube revanced

[toxic relic]

you know that doesnt work

[polar kernel]

you think people would be willing to die for a test score just like that

[toxic relic]

corporal punishment isnt an effective deterrent -thats a proven statement

[neat moat]

I bet bro cheated

[toxic relic]

yes

[neat moat]

didnt you 3'8

[toxic relic]

i think many people would risk death

[polar kernel]

tell that to the 30 class members who watched their homeboy get his shit blown smooth off 💔

[neat moat]

especially when education can mean a better life

[polar kernel]

i guarantee their eyes gonna be LOCKED on that paper

[toxic relic]

still not a deterrent

nah dude

you're not backing that up with anything

[neat moat]

bro would makw a bad dictator

[polar kernel]

you just havent shot enough cheaters yet obviously

[toxic relic]

considering the history of public executions, they would either rebel against you or clap and rage and then no one would get anything done

[neat moat]

You will soon learn you don't have enough bullets to shoot everyone

and they are very

very anrgy

[toxic relic]

very angry and very many

[polar kernel]

then bring enough bullets???

[toxic relic]

the anger of a unified masses is a strength second to none

[toxic relic]

you're too unserious for this

[polar kernel]

maybe dictators just arent evil enough idk man i think its pretty easy

[neat moat]

I would make a bad dictator too though

I am too empathetic

its my weakness 😔

[toxic relic]

go smoke a cigarette and play cs go, twink boy

[dim cloak]

what we talking about

[neat moat]

murder

[toxic relic]

you wish you were as cool as thrash

[polar kernel]

my solution to cheating on tests

[dim cloak]

just... don't?

[neat moat]

we still glazing thrash I see

Nah I cheat on exams stil

[polar kernel]

hey i didnt say i was

[burnt kite]

por balatro

[neat moat]

if I spend every ducking hour of the day and tried so hard and still am getting bad grades

[polar kernel]

i just said their solution is dumb when you can just kill the people who do it !

[neat moat]

im cheating

bro cheated on their own exams I bet

[toxic relic]

i guarantee twink has cheated on a test

[polar kernel]

no i dont cheat i just fail confidently

[toxic relic]

thats not a flex

[polar kernel]

ok well i wasnt good at math

so i found a solution

[dim cloak]

fair

[polar kernel]

i just... dont take math

[toxic relic]

how do you not take math

[narrow rune]

You can't be trusted

[toxic relic]

isnt that a core subject

[polar kernel]

loopholes and workarounds

[dim cloak]

it's required for anything in college or higher

[onyx igloo]

my closest thing to cheating was just rewriting an english essay with added details

word for word

[dim cloak]

you mean, plagerizing?

[toxic relic]

math, english, history and a second language were required from me all through school

[polar kernel]

i made it thru high school without ever taking a math class but i had 4 math credits

[onyx igloo]

yeah, but with JUST enough effort

[toxic relic]

insane

[onyx igloo]

little bit of spice

[polar kernel]

gee wonder how that happened

[dim cloak]

[toxic relic]

[polar kernel]

its okay i actually got this silly app for waking up in the morning

[onyx igloo]

poor mojo

[narrow rune]

I've taken algebra and I still don't fucking get it lol

I'm actively taking algebra actually

[polar kernel]

it turns on an incredibly loud alarm that can only be turned off if i do math problems

[narrow rune]

No clue what I'm doing but I'm automatically passing my final

[smoky marsh]

Damn

[onyx igloo]

thats algebra for you

[smoky marsh]

Still two more

[spiral condor]

[polar kernel]

so every morning now i have to do math or else my phone screams at me deafeningly

[onyx igloo]

i follow the rules without understanding it

just.. managed to get by

[spiral condor]

then you can('t) post slurs

[dim cloak]

in #pz_b42_chat

[toxic relic]

algebra is so easy

[spiral condor]

what is it level 10 for general

[dim cloak]

yes

[polar kernel]

says you

[toxic relic]

its literally just substitution and common sense

[polar kernel]

algebra sucks

[toxic relic]

its peak

[polar kernel]

"common sense" why tf are they puttin letters in my math 💔

[toxic relic]

from the beginner shit to calculus

algebra 🔥

[toxic relic]

math has always used various symbols

numbers...are also symbols

that argument never made sense to me

if you can understand numbers then you can understand letters

theyre the same thing

[polar kernel]

no cause they arent a number

[toxic relic]

theyre a symbol

a numerical symbol

[polar kernel]

yea but i gotta figure out what it means

[toxic relic]

to not understand that is a cognitive dissonance

[vital marten]

Close

[onyx igloo]

god english class feels so subjective

all the answers feel correct to a point

[ruby river]

bro lives in corpus christi

[polar kernel]

me doing algebra is equivalent to a CIA interrogation

[toxic relic]

english is subjective

wild

[polar kernel]

now i will say i can write

[onyx igloo]

so why do we have classes with multiple question choices

[vital marten]

Close enough to be called my area, I’ll give you that

I love how large Texas is

[polar kernel]

i can turn the dumbest shit into a 30 page essay no diff

[toxic relic]

wait till you get to special binomial products

[ivory grail]

That why I fail most of my multiple chocie questions if it not like a number

[dim cloak]

https://tenor.com/view/approved-morrowind-nerevar-nerevarine-ashlanders-gif-26759318

[polar kernel]

which im forever thankful that being a biology major means 99% of all my work that i turn in is just paper based

[ruby river]

texas is as big as france

[toxic relic]

special binomal products just means a 2 term polynomial that is the result of a production and there are 3 special terms

ez

break it down

makes sense

[polar kernel]

the only actual math classes i needed for my bachelors was fucking STATISTICS and like, basic algebra refreshers

[toxic relic]

statistics is ass

[polar kernel]

that they also incorporated INTO biology context

[toxic relic]

well

yeah

math is everywhere

[polar kernel]

look it makes more sense when it applies to my fixation okay

[toxic relic]
