Ooh in norway, I think almost everyone got waxxed, atleast 3 times ☺️ and all people that works in hospitals and so on didnt directly have a choice. 😂

[lone gorge]

I technically didn’t have a choice cuz my work wanted me to get it but, unless they physically forced me to, I wasn’t gonna. And they never fired me over it either cuz I wasn’t the only one refusing to

I’d of left if they’d of gave me the option anyways

I control those choices not them

[inland wren]

Aah, I heard from someone I know, that nurses that said no to get vaxxed, either got restricted work, or got permitation (basicly had to be home, but got paid). 😂

How true it is, I dont know. But I understand the hospitals if its true 😂

[lone gorge]

Sounds about right. If you were deemed an “essential” worker, which was as broad as fast food worker to nurses, you were supposed to be vaxed. I imagine everyone’s situation was different especially having a medical field type job

[inland wren]

Yeah ☺️

[lone gorge]

I was essential and I stock grocery shelves

💀

I’ll never understand why everyone hoarded toilet paper for Covid

[inland wren]

My bestfriend works as a cook in the hospital 😂 he was waxxed 3 times and he said no to the 4 one, since it was just a booster dose, and more for people that have immune system problems, yeah It was a bit of chaos. But not like it was in US tho 😂

But americans are now hoarding eggs now😂 but I feel a bit for them, since it has to be scary 😬

[lone gorge]

I don’t understand the egg thing. In my area I guess it ain’t happening

We have full shelves of eggs

Though it’s like 6$ for a dozen

Who tf is paying that

[inland wren]

I dont know if its a thing really. In norway for 18 eggs, if you buy the cheapest brand its around 4 dollars ish if not 5 dollars. And the most expensive is 12 eggs for 6-7 dollars 😂

[errant egret]

I done goofed the mod but fixed it

[inland wren]

But its 6 brands of not more 😂

[errant egret]

These college computers having Visual studio is peak

[lime sand]

I caught covid when I shook hands with an open wound on my hand. I was pissed too. Had the booster at the same time. But I didn't get anywhere NEAR as sick

[inland wren]

Ooh that sucks 😬 I think the big reason I didnt get sick, is that I am really asosial😂 I just love my own company so much, that I didnt get lonely and didnt get that hard hit with the loneliness pandemic that hit at the same time 😬

[lime sand]

I mean, I learned that that combination of events gave me a stronger than normal immunity to it

But it straight up took an open wound for me to catch it. I was mad

[inland wren]

But isnt your immune system stronger since you now have the antibodies ? ☺️ so you may be harder target to get sick with it again, unnless it mutates so much ☺️

[errant egret]

I don't get sick because my immune system built like a TANK

[chilly dagger]

People are not even close to taking care of this planet, and they are talking about other planets

[lime sand]

Yeah, because of how the virus is. Immunity goes down because of its mutations. With the booster and the new strain at the time, my immune system thought I had 2 different strains

[chilly dagger]

Piss me off fr

[lime sand]

Took me down for a whopping 2 days. After that, I was fine

[gusty crater]

I get lightly sick occasionally, not bc of getting infected by someone but bc I keep my window slightly open even tho its February, if I forget to close my door before going to sleep it creates a draught and I get a bit sick the next day.

[lime sand]

The dreaded runny nose

[gusty crater]

yes

[lime sand]

Though! The trend of mutations for Covid keeps making it less and less severe!

Thankfully, because it would've taken way longer to achieve enough population immunity to make it less severe since of all the pseudoscience BS nowadays

[gusty crater]

I hate not being able to breath normally through the nose. Many years ago one doctor prescribed me some spray and it unclogged my nose withing a day or two and it stayed that way. Idk what it was and I have no way to contact that doctor since I moved

[inland wren]

Im immune to get sick from having the window open, my bedroom window is open every day, the only days its closed is if there is a storm. So its normal in the winter that its really cold -1 celsius and even colder 😂

[chilly dagger]

I started to get sick very often after shots against covid

[lime sand]

Immune response. Should pass afterwards

[inland wren]

Yeah I got really sick after the first one, second one gave me a high fever and the third just gave me some fatigue ☺️

[gusty crater]

I don't thing I had any side effects but the night after getting the shot my father would be waking up a couple of time to change T-Shits bc of sweating

[chilly dagger]

Good thing about immun system is that no matter how you gonna try to destroy it, it will regenerate

[lime sand]

To a degree, but yes

[errant egret]

Unless you have acute radiation sickness to a degree

[lime sand]

Unless you have a condition that makes it "lose focus"

[errant egret]

ARS will destroy bone marrow cells and the immune system

Professionalism and ethics in cyber security :)

[inland wren]

Hihi I am feeling proud ☺️ btw WoW game was the reason I actually had motivation to learn since I had to understand other players ☺️

[lime sand]

Most of that still applies

Just slap a don't be rude sticker

[errant egret]

Literally

[lime sand]

And now, its everywhere!

[errant egret]

Half of these rules I've already broken, I am a model cyber sec mf

[lime sand]

Half of these rules you break if you're contracted as a white hat hacker

[errant egret]

Yep

[lime sand]

It's just, you report it

[errant egret]

But yea this shit is mind numbingly boring I'm just writing my mod

[inland wren]

But if the motivation behind breaking those rules is good, is it really bad then?. Feks a bad hacker is taking info illegally, and you are contracted to find the weak spots and maybe find the hacker. But you have to use the same tactics as the black hacker. I dont think its a bad thing, it only show that it is a big responsebility behind the actions and power you have ☺️

[errant egret]

I'm gonna be real

I'd be more like a grey hat

I couldn't find myself working as a white hat but I have a moral compass so I most likely wouldn't be malicious like a black hat

There's a certain, edge that the different processes have

[inland wren]

Thats also allright, as long as you are aware of consecuenses and so on. You have to find what you like to do, and how you do it ☺️ and most people know whats right and wrong. Even some black hats, that fucked up and targeted a hospital for ransom, but they didnt mean to hit the hospital, but a buisness near it. And they just stopped and said they were sorry ☺️

[errant egret]

Yea it's highly illegal but alas, we've all been bad boys and girls once

✨Piracy✨

[lime sand]

Every great rule has a notable exception.

[inland wren]

Most people arent just good or bad, we all are in the grey scale of it ☺️

[lime sand]

As well as some cyber crime isn't worth the resources to pursue

[errant egret]

The moral gray area of non malicious but unauthorised hacking is an interesting subject to dwell on

[lime sand]

What is legally correct, but what is morally correct don't always overlap

[errant egret]

Mhm

[inland wren]

Yeah. I personally love dwelling on human behavior and mental things.

[lime sand]

And ethics guide those decisions

[lime sand]

My major, Psychology

[errant egret]

I will say I have done..some things not exactly legal to help out mates of mine who have lost accounts to scammers

[inland wren]

Because morallity is a social construct ☺️

[errant egret]

Interesting way to hone my skills

[lime sand]

I don't know. I see the same lessons be taught in different ways in different cultures

Just how they get there is different

[lime sand]

Scammers tho...

[inland wren]

[dry bison]

Why do you differentiate between morals and ethics? Morals are a person's beliefs about what are right to do, while ethics are the moral principles that govern their behavior.

[lime sand]

Yep

Ethics takes your decision on what you believe is right and wrong to do, but not always what you agree with. Moral decisions are what you agree with is right. Ethical tries to take account for other people's point of views while morality doesn't always need to account for others. Just yourself

From Oxford
"Ethics – Rules of conduct in a particular culture or group recognised by an external source or social system. For example, a medical code of ethics that medical professionals must follow. Morals – Principles or habits relating to right or wrong conduct, based on an individual's own compass of right and wrong."

[dry bison]

Stealing is wrong. Stealing to prevent death is not.

An individual morality would have to change over time.

Otherwise, we'd still be making the arguments babies make as to why we do anything.

[lime sand]

The reason changes. And this is now a moral decisions, Is theft more important than a human life?

[dry bison]

Depends on whose perspective you're speaking from.

[lime sand]

Even people will change what they think they did in the moment, because they have new information. It doesn't change that it was a moral decision at the time

[lime sand]

Well, from themselves. Stealing is wrong, but I need to live and the only way I can is like this.

Morality only applies to the person doing the act and all the information they have at the time.

If they chose to steal even if they know it's wrong, and it wasn't a need, then its an immoral decision

[tight pagoda]

you left the stripper light on again.

morning all 🙂

[dry bison]

and since you can't know what they know, it's only immoral to one person

The only way it is immoral with that argument is on the basis that A) They know it's wrong and B) They communicate that. Otherwise, from the outside looking in - Their actions while immoral to an observer may be morally justified if even only momentarily by the individual acting.

They have a whole legal defense based on that alone. Insanity.

[lime sand]

Technically yes. Since we can only judge based on our own morals. The best you can do is try to have all the information they had at the time of their decision and that's it.

That's the only common ground you can do. Issue is personal bias, so it's only easy on paper but hard in practice

[tight pagoda]

my dog comes home tomorrow

[lime sand]

Well Legality isn't based on morals all the time. And the system tries to have all the evidence they have at the time. Same as this

This is why the phrase "walk a mile in that person's shoes" exist. Live their experience and with their information, see if you would make a different decision

Fear is a learned behavior

[tight pagoda]

fear is a survival instinct

[dry bison]

No it's not. Otherwise babies would be far less inclined to fall down stairs.

Instinct isn't learned.

[tight pagoda]

i respectfully disagree

[lime sand]

Quite the opposite! As they learn different motor skills, they then take less risks of falling. This was demonstrated with depth perception test in Developmental Psychology

[dry bison]

You're demonstrating a learned behavior

IE Risk aversion

[lime sand]

Do you agree humans have no instinct?

Because I straight up am explaining a learned thing. Even happens twice in Toddlers.

[dry bison]

I do believe there is instinct in humans, but it is limited to very basic responses to things like extreme heat and pain.

[lime sand]

But even toddlers need to learn hot things can burn them.

Otherwise, why reach for it?

[dry bison]

That is true.

To what degree they respond properly to the first attempt though isn't necessarily governed by learning.

[lime sand]

No, but a desire to experience their enviroment

Learning through experience

[dry bison]

The instinct is the response to the first attempt though. Learning may inform the second.

Especially where pain avoidance is at play, given the speed at which the body can respond to pain before the brain can process it.

[lime sand]

The recoil away is an autonomic response yeah

Doesn't even need to reach the brain at that point

[dry bison]

That first response is not learned. It is instinctual.

Im not raising instinct to some special level of power mind you

It's just an autonomic system

[lime sand]

But learning to be cautious around whatever burned them, that isn't. Interesting. I'm gonna have to agree Fear is learned

[lime sand]

Same as breathing, and heart pumping.

But would you classify these as instincts compared to other animals having instinctual behaviors, like ducks and swimming?

[lone gorge]

idk, fear seems subconscious.

[lime sand]

The unconsciousness is made of things we experience and encode

[dry bison]

The subconscious is entirely structured from learning.

[tight pagoda]

shhh! they are wrapping it up. let it end i wanna talk about my dog that is comming tomorrow XD

[lime sand]

Dog tax?

[tight pagoda]

[lime sand]

Where did your dog go?

[dry bison]

In terms of functionality, yes I would. Different creatures have different functional instincts that serve them.

[tight pagoda]

my second service dog moves in tomorrow. Rio my first was retired and fostered with a family in july

[lime sand]

Oooh!

[dry bison]

But I don't know much about ducks and swimming. I do know they have hollow bones and oil on their feathers that both help with swimming...So to what degree they are "swimming" and are actually just floating, I don't know

It isn't like once they get into water they have the option to drown.

one of my family as a similar desktop computer and a gaming laptop

his desktop computer have the same issue as mine, but the laptop dont, even switching his cam between both of then

and based on that situation of both desktop computers with similar hardware and etc, we ended reaching the conclusion of being a generic issue of the motherboard that was adapted to server cpu

What I like about him; he could have been so much richer monetarily, but he opted out in favor of integrity.

On top of this, he has more freedom to do what he actually wants to

That should be what everyone pursues in an acting career. The freedom to do what they want to artistically.

It's kind of telling. All these actors who aren't dick heads end up working in theater and not just acting infront of a camera

It helps keep a performance grounded when the actor gets to see feedback live

Gonna channel all my bad luck into that 3.2% prediction by NASA

[dry bison]

2.3

[errant egret]

I can't read

Close enough

[dry bison]

I'm still more a fan of Apophis.

Apophis 2036

[brisk jasper]

I cannot say the same, I rather enjoy living

not to mention, we can't really improve the world if nobody is alive to do anything

[dry bison]

Like the world wouldn't improve without us 😛

[errant egret]

Oh hey I get this reference

Well it's a different Apophis

[brisk jasper]

You do realize if an asteroid is strong enough to kill all of humanity, it's probably strong enough to kill just about everything else

[dry bison]

It is unlikely to kill all humans.

The nuclear winter following might.

Other species that burrow and scavenge would be more adaptable to that change

[brisk jasper]

My point is that nihilism is quite literally the most unproductive mind set you can have

[dry bison]

How is it nihilism?

[errant egret]

Not nuclear, it would just be Impact Winter

[brisk jasper]

Wanting all of humanity to be wiped out by an asteroid? I'd call that nihilism

[errant egret]

Unless the asteroid directly caused a nuclear winter

Which would be somewhat unlikely

[dry bison]

There's a difference between wanting and not caring if it happened.

[silent wagon]

Roaches and crabs and whatever abominations live so deep in the ocean that we've never even heard of them would take over and evolve into the next cycle of sentient beings, lol

[dry bison]

Like they haven't started already. Have you seen The Zuck?

[opaque tartan]

He had a McLaren F1 and is with over 100 mil

[errant egret]

Inverse mermaids

Fish head
Human legs

[opaque tartan]

He crashed that McLaren and sold it for twice the money I think

[dry bison]

A crashed McLaren driven by Mr Bean is just art

[opaque tartan]

That's still only 8 mil

[brisk jasper]

"only" 8 mil

[opaque tartan]

😉

Always been a fan of Rowan Atkinson

But he's still a rich person

[dry bison]

How dare he have money

[brisk jasper]

fuck, give me 8 mil and nobody's ever going to hear from me again

[opaque tartan]

You had to be pretty special to own an F1

[dry bison]

Or dumb

Car is a race car

[opaque tartan]

Nah they only sold them to rich Arabs and a couple other people

You had to be wealthy

[dry bison]

Not wealthy. Connected.

[errant egret]

Hey guys I think my phones charging a little slowly

[opaque tartan]

Like how Ferrari decides who they sell certain cars to

[opaque tartan]

Get a real charger

[brisk jasper]

what'd you do, hook it up to a AAA battery? A potato, perhaps?

[opaque tartan]

Portable solar panel

Or a dynamo

[dry bison]

Probably sitting it on one of those dumb charging platforms

[opaque tartan]

Toots is winding her phone up

[brisk jasper]

I think for a solar panel you'd get more of a charge than that

[errant egret]

Hooked it directly to my Brain and I just need to think hard enough to get electricity

[opaque tartan]

Sorry for misgender Toots

[errant egret]

Nah you're fine dw

[opaque tartan]

How hard

[errant egret]

Not hard enough clearly

[brisk jasper]

therein lies the problem I think

[opaque tartan]

Don't think any of us can fast charge

[dry bison]

The brain could power a lightbulb as long as you didn't bother thinking and routed all of the electrical current to the bulb instead.

[errant egret]

I used all 100% of my brain

This will be fun

[brisk jasper]

yeah, no lol

it's estimated that the human brain can generate about 20 watts of energy

not to mention we have no way to harvest that

[errant egret]

Unfortunately my brain has inefficient cooling due to long hair so I use the excess thermal energy to heat water that becomes steam and turns a turbine

[dry bison]

Do some math
from reddit

[brisk jasper]

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8364152/

[opaque tartan]

https://youtu.be/Gb2jGy76v0Y

[brisk jasper]

I just skimmed that link I posted

most of it went over my head, but that's probably because I haven't done any research into harvesting the energy the human brain produces

I guarantee you some politician or scientist somewhere said "what if we turned people into batteries?"

[errant egret]

I've seen this somewhere in a game

[dry bison]

They made a whole movie out of it

[errant egret]

Oh yea, Fuga: Melodies of Steel

That was a wild game

[opaque tartan]

Matrix

[dry bison]

https://tenor.com/view/neo-the-matrix-bruh-taking-glassess-off-matrix-gif-5931061463820897890

[brisk jasper]

I have been desperately attempting to not think of the Matrix while typing that shit out

[opaque tartan]

That's what the Matrix wants you to do

[brisk jasper]

although wasn't it different in the Matrix?

[opaque tartan]

You'll never escape

[dry bison]

I mean...in Aliens, humans are basically just take out food for babies

[brisk jasper]

I didn't think they directly harvested the energy the brain produced

[dry bison]

Incubate the baby in the container, baby is born and eats out the meal

The whole idea of humans as batteries is wasteful.

The human body uses a shitload of power. It produces a lot less than it needs to function.

The human body would make better compost

[brisk jasper]

yeah, that part was pretty obvious

unless you were able to use the energy really efficiently, it would just be a massive waste of time and resources

[tardy juniper]

supposedly, in the Matrix, we were supposed to be wet computing resources, but they didn't think the general public would understand it

[dry bison]

lol...wet computing. So a biological computer...That they thought that was a thing belies any understanding how brains "compute".

[opaque tartan]

I remember this from biology

Most inefficient mammal on the planet

[tardy juniper]

yeah, but computers have no imagination, so they farm us for it

[opaque tartan]

I think you just highlighted the importance of touching grass

[errant egret]

Maybe we should give each cell...not 1...not 2...but 3 MITOCHONDRIA!!!!!!

If humans weren't meant to be batteries then why is Aaron spelt with 2 As

Sounds like...AA batteries to me

[brisk jasper]

Because the english language is really goddamn stupid

Astronomy Pic of the Day: LEDA 1313424: The Bullseye Galaxy

Explanation: The giant galaxy cataloged as LEDA 1313424 is about two and a half times the size of our own Milky Way. Its remarkable appearance in this recently released Hubble Space Telescope image strongly suggests its nickname "The Bullseye Galaxy". Known as a collisional ring galaxy it has nine rings confirmed by telescopic observations, rippling from its center like waves from a pebble dropped into a pond. Of course, the pebble dropped into the Bullseye galaxy was a galaxy itself. Telescopic observations identify the blue dwarf galaxy at center-left as the likely collider, passing through the giant galaxy's center and forming concentric rings in the wake of their gravitational interaction. The Bullseye Galaxy lies some 567 million light-years away toward the constellation Pisces. At that distance, this stunning Hubble image would span about 530,000 light-years.

Psychiatrists are wack can I go back to sleep

Ill say 2 things about what ive been thinking about

[glossy vale]

I already know I'm mentally ill nothing they tell me is news to me

[lucid moat]

Quantum entanglement
Tesla coils

[glossy vale]

"Yeah you're kinda fucky but take these pills once a day and you'll stop feeling like yourself for 6 months until you have to come back to ask for new pills"

[lucid moat]

I hope everything goes well

[glossy vale]

I'm gonna give her the basics as always and walk myself back home because I cba to wait for my sister to be attended as well just to get an Uber

Because stuffing new medication down my gullet will surely work this time

[lucid moat]

Yea i feel you i got prescribed 3 different meds for my anxiety and depression and nightmares but they wont let me refill it untill i go back to the psychiatrist to have my brain picked apart again

[glossy vale]

Oh I can refill mine but it's the third time they did absolutely jack shit so I have to go back and ask her for a new prescription

One almost killed me and the other two did nothing

The tism will be cured with new pills that make me feel like shit

[lucid moat]

I honestly wouldnt take pills for tism

Its not really a thing that you hear about people doing alot

[glossy vale]

I don't take pills for autism but I sure do take it for everything else the psychiatrist seems to think I have

Whole laundry list of shit that hasn't affected my life at all until she decided to point it out and give me pills that make me feel like shit for 6 months

[lucid moat]

Ah fuck me im sleep deprived tism meds were invented in 2006 i tend to jump the gun on some things

[glossy vale]

My autism isn't bad enough to the point where I need to take pills for it thankfully

Just bad enough that a single clothing tag will ruin my week

Are you interested in science at all? Maybe hearing some crazy science theories will cheer u up?

[tight pagoda]

my 1% American redneck is acting up "why do you have them dealy boppers in yur name. thats un merican. are you a commie?!

[tight pagoda]

wow! keep going! it looks amazing!

[gusty crater]

I'm not American tho :v

[tight pagoda]

i know 🙂

im freaking out alittle. Gabe comes home today

i get weirder when im anxious. not the loveable weird you've all come to expect XD

[gusty crater]

It'll be fine, a bit of anxiety is good for health

[lone gorge]

someone accidentally dumped a bucket into me, not a bit. xD

[gusty crater]

Remember that you are never alone

They are always with you

[brisk jasper]

Yeah, the IRS is very annoying. Always something about taxes. So I haven’t paid my taxes in years, so what?

[lone gorge]

if theyre the internal revenue service, whos the external?

[tight pagoda]

i doesnt matter anymore

its all going to elon

oh wait...thats just us

sorry

[sand solstice]

IRS refund was so fast this year. Filed on 1/27, got my refund a week later.

I just threw most of it into stocks since NVDA was a good pricepoint.

[tight pagoda]

i still need to file

[sand solstice]

I had a letter once. Scared the crap out of me. I had one year I didn't file for whatever reason (forgot?) and there was a mistake...$900 fine/fee I had to pay.

They're nice people as long as you're willing to cooperate and pay lol.

[lime sand]

Oh, that's reminds me

[upper flame]

so i may have done a little fucky wucky oopsie woopsie

but it's better to be safe than sorry

I saw a random charge on my bank account for something that didn't look familiar to me

ended up getting my card canceled and replaced just an hour ago

did a little more digging and apparently the charge was to a company that I pre-ordered a comic book from awhile back.

but the charge on the credit card looked nothing like their company name at all

soooo i guess I should call my bank and tell them to cancel the dispute or something?

[tight pagoda]

faster the better

or

cancel the pre order and re place it when you get the new card

[upper flame]

pre-order has already shipped lmao.

[brisk jasper]

I suppose just tell your bank that you discovered the charge wasn’t fraudulent

[upper flame]

the charge just looked fraudulent to me because I couldn't find ANY information on what "DFI" was

[brisk jasper]

Well, better safe than sorry

[upper flame]

very true

GUYS GTA 6 HAS NOT BEEN DELAYED

I can now confidently say it will come out in the next 6-7 months

[tight pagoda]

https://tenor.com/view/shuch-yo-ass-up-i-dont-know-robin-hood-men-in-tights-cary-elwes-gif-5447851

[lone gorge]

pretty common imo if the business name isnt what the statement on the bank statement says took money, id be suspicious too

[tender marlin]

You guys are still concerned with gta 6?

[tight pagoda]

its going to be pretty, no question. but the preditory nature of take 2 and rockstar are going to hurt the industry as a whole imo

[lone gorge]

im genuinely curious just how in depth itll go. will there be hunting? fishing? street racing? (prolly), gang wars? taxi missions returning, police missions firefirghter missions etc etc

[tight pagoda]

the question is why is Star Citizen a "scam" while GTA is not

[lone gorge]

hell even san andreas pushed creativity imo when they had bmxs

[tight pagoda]

well GTA6

star citizen you can play and see the effort going into it, gta6, there is one trailer, and leaks XD

[fleet condor]

GTA 6 will be a finished & polished game

[tight pagoda]

after 10 years?

really?

[fleet condor]

I mean how long has star citizen been in development

[eternal thorn]

Can't tell if joke post

[tight pagoda]

star citizen has been in the marathon longer sure, but its playable

[tight pagoda]

its actually not a joke post. im being serious

[fleet condor]

GTA 6 will not only be playable tho, the vision rockstar has for that game will -at least for the campaign- be finished

[eternal thorn]

Oh, sorry to hear that

[tight pagoda]

im not ^^

[eternal thorn]

Not a good look but ok

[tight pagoda]

im just compareing the 2

[tender marlin]

That’s why I stopped caring about gta 6, is bc of the predatory shit ik they’re gonna do

Gaming is just gonna get worse the moment gta6 releases

[fleet condor]

Not in the single player

At least

[lone gorge]

gta has probably ammased more money than Star Citizen had donated to it, however, that doesnt make gta5 a scam, just shitty business practices

[tight pagoda]

im not talking gta 5

[tender marlin]

Even with “the single player” if gta 6 prices their base game at $100, gaming will be forever affected

And less accessible to the average consumer

[fleet condor]

“If”

[eternal thorn]

Rockstar has a known history of actually releasing games, while Star Citizens dev has the single most funded early access of all time that still isnt finished. We know in good faith that GTA6 will release. We do not know if Star Citizen will ever reach 1.0
This is such a weird thing to talk about.

[tender marlin]

It’s a very heavy if

And is very likely to happen

[fleet condor]

Yup

[tight pagoda]

im talking the, as of now becouse there is nothing playable "idea of gta 6" after 10 years

[upper flame]

is that a pact

jkjk

[tight pagoda]

star citizen you can play

[lone gorge]

last i tried, barely. its something to do thats for sure

and detailed as fuck

[eternal thorn]

We have known that a GTA6 will likely happen for 10 years, and as of recent we have a release year and trailer. I really don't know what you're getting at

Just a very confusing conversation to see

[tender marlin]

My fear is them hiking the prices of games

[tight pagoda]

thats my point, you are getting a return

[lone gorge]

but its hardly a game even from someone whos played it

[tight pagoda]

gta 6 has been nothing but "its comming" for 10 years

[lone gorge]

its just, like, idek. a tech demo

quite literally

[gusty crater]

Obviously not a true beliver am I right boys 😏

[tender marlin]

A tech demo that isn’t being utilized for other games, even tho it really should be

Segmented loading is literally one of the greatest inventions from Star citizen, and I don’t see anyone else use it

[lone gorge]

well they are making there own tech and the game's a demo for it.

[eternal thorn]

It's not patented is it?

[tender marlin]

Idk

It needs to be utilized for other games tho

[eternal thorn]

What exactly is segmented loading

[gusty crater]

Can it be utilised? If there is no patent and not open source it might as well be a myth

[tight pagoda]

segmented loading... obviously jk XD

[gusty crater]

Even if it was open source it should have a patent

[eternal thorn]

Google is turning up nothing on segmented loading so I'm still in the dark

[tight pagoda]

im going to buy gta6, but after 10 years, its outdated and boring to me already

[gusty crater]

I think the proper term is "server meshing" if we are talking star citizen

[eternal thorn]

Wasn't even announced until December 2023

[tight pagoda]

yeah, 10 years

[eternal thorn]

This isn't like Duke Nukem Forever where it was announced 12 years prior to release and went thru development hell

[tight pagoda]

i dont understand the hostility, its just my opinioon

[eternal thorn]

K I'm just gonna assume everyone in the convo is joking now

No point in taking it seriously

[tardy juniper]

I'm not in the convo, but I still joke

[gusty crater]

idk I just got here ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tight pagoda]

its like games where "you are a rebel freedom fighter, and only you can save the country"

just cause. home front, far cry 6.

gta 6 youre going to be a gangster, start with nothing, then get rich after a series of fetch quests with guns

[eternal thorn]

My favorite part of GTA5 was capturing every base to convert to your side, just like in Just Cause and Farcry

Exact same formula well done Ubisoft for making GTA

[lone gorge]

dont forget to climb the 50000 towers

XD

[tight pagoda]

that was san andreas

[wheat sierra]

I'm not interested in ever getting 6 because what new possible experience could RS give us? GTA's thing feels like its set in stone at this point.

[eternal thorn]

Coulda swore it was actually Vice City

[lone gorge]

i liked just cause up till 3. the destruction was peak. but 4 was mediocre imo. not specifically cuz of that tho

[tight pagoda]

maybe, gang warfare and control points were in san ann though

[wheat sierra]

Just Cause is just GTA: Tropico Edition.

[tight pagoda]

i get the feeling "oh shit, hes right" is setting in X)

[eternal thorn]

Everyone loves a good Puerto Rican dictator

[tight pagoda]

just cause 2 they mixed it up and had kim jung =p

[eternal thorn]

Thought we were still joking, whats with the hubris

Kinda weird

[lone gorge]

just cause 4 you fight the weather xD

[tight pagoda]

saddam was in Red Faction 2 as "chancler Sopot"

[tight pagoda]

i never get to have hubris, i wanted to try it once

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oM-JeX2zQc

[lone gorge]

i love how the hitman games had a homing briefcase 😄

[tight pagoda]

the bugged one or the added one for fun

[tight pagoda]

i told you i wasnt joking before

[eternal thorn]

I'm not continuing this

[tight pagoda]

sorry my opinions about games, dont align with yours 🙂

[eternal thorn]

Buddy, stop

[lone gorge]

my only stance is calling gta a scam is objectively NOT an opinion
