[carmine dirge]

i told my friend to play doom and forgot to tell him about the bunny head on a spike

[lunar valve]

the family wasn't a thing until doom eternal and theres no evidence to suggest they even died to demons
its a retcon I don't care for

[jovial hatch]

Personally I think he cares quite a good deal about his family

[jovial hatch]

Iirc it wasn't even a retcon

I believe they'd been mentioned before? Lemme double check

[lunar valve]

I don't care

[sullen yarrow]

Daisy was a retcon too

[jovial hatch]

I think it was in the doom rpg

[static perch]

be good at keyboard

[lunar valve]

im only counting stuff in the games

[carmine dirge]

i thought the orange robot guy on doomguy's desk was from ultrakill lol

[jovial hatch]

Doom RPG was one of the games

[lunar valve]

doom rpg is not mainline canon

[carmine dirge]

i thought it was the guttertank

[jovial hatch]

Which ones aren't canon again?

Just doom 3 and RPG right? Is vfr canon?

[carmine dirge]

vfr sucks

huh???????

[jovial hatch]

Vfr has some odd lore implications

[lunar valve]

Basically anything but 1,2,64, 2016, eternal, dark ages

[rich wagon]

Ye like the image under his desk, I personally think it's his father

[carmine dirge]

eternal has too many skins

[jovial hatch]

The doom 2016 board game isn't canon?

Anyone here played that btw?

[keen robin]

Sure thing, bud
<@&162901871168585728>

[carmine dirge]

i like dark ages because there's less skins because i feel the need to get EVERY SINGLE ONE

[static perch]

thats rude

[jovial hatch]

Awesome game, amazing miniatures

[carmine dirge]

there's a what

[jovial hatch]

He's throwing a tantrum cause nobody is engaging with him

[rich wagon]

Uh oh

[jovial hatch]

Yeah it's really good, check it out, play with your friends

[hollow compass]

Whats going on here lol

[carmine dirge]

i have the shortcut for doom on my pc as the ouch face

[keen robin]

Doom 3 is canon, but it's a different dimension from Classic Doom and Nu Doom Earths

[faint ivy]

That's what's going on

[carmine gust]

You know what we do to users like these?

[jovial hatch]

My DND group and I have tried it a few times and it's super fun

[ivory ravine]

[jovial hatch]

[jovial hatch]

I'm actually 4'3" and 583 pounds

I can roll lmao

[keen robin]

Doesn't occur to me, since they could probably take the person's name and browse for his recent texts.
But yeah, possibly better to use modmail instead

[muted phoenix]

Im legit 45kilos (some of the people I know are 80)

[jovial hatch]

Idk what that means

Right here, almost 90

[jovial hatch]

Someone translate into American please

[jovial hatch]

Approximately how many small boulder sized large boulders do you weigh?

[static perch]

whats your height?

[rich wagon]

It's just my belly it's kinda round

Besides that, I'm going on a diet anyway

[jovial hatch]

Anything but metric

[rich wagon]

I've lost like 3 kilos

[jovial hatch]

You should try the GOMAD diet

[carmine dirge]

i just posted a song i made!!! yippee!!!

[static perch]

100lbs

[carmine dirge]

good!!!

[jovial hatch]

Dang that's skinny

[static perch]

depends on the height

[jovial hatch]

I weigh nearly 6 of those

[carmine dirge]

i'm 110 and super fucking short

[jovial hatch]

I'm actually trying to gain 20 pounds so I can go on my 600 pound life

[upbeat furnace]

how are you 110 years old

[carmine dirge]

real

[jovial hatch]

And get free help losing weight

Plus it'll be a way to boost my amateur rapping career

I've got a new single I plan on dropping live on the show

[dark path]

I weigh fucken 80 lbs

[jovial hatch]

You should probably eat more

[upbeat furnace]

holy hell

Wanna know a good way to pack in more calories?

[dark path]

I'm 4'4

[jovial hatch]

You know powdered chocolate milk mix?

Try dipping potato chips in it

[hollow compass]

If the issue is ongoing there's no shame in pinging the role. Both work, obviously Modmail is how you can report individuals without everyone else knowing. As long as people aren't spamming the Mod pings for minor offences you should be good 😁

[jovial hatch]

And eating those

[dark path]

Nesquick?

[jovial hatch]

Hah I'm shorter than you

[static perch]

yall keep saying a height OR a weight, you need to give both to accurately figure out size

[jovial hatch]

4'3" here

[carmine dirge]

i just realized that the middle of the quake logo is a nail

[jovial hatch]

Yeah

Also you ever tried a Twinkie dawg?

Weird al taught me this one, you take a Twinkie, cut open the middle, put in a hot dog, and top with cheez whiz

It's so peak

[static perch]

being 100lbs is skeleton skinny if your 6'0, but normal if your 4'10

[dark path]

I'm 4'4, 80 fucken lbs

[dark path]

It's actually good

[jovial hatch]

What's 4'3" and 580 pounds?

thats a standard size your just small

You should get single eye replacement surgery

[wispy warren]

I am a Revenant fr fr fr

Shoulder rocket launcher surgery for this one

You can do this if you live in America btw it's legal

I'm getting hand flamethrowers next month

[static perch]

i think your legally a dwarf

[wispy warren]

I'm not American!

[jovial hatch]

Sad!

[keen rune]

I'm almost blind in one eye anyway so I guess that works

[dark path]

Legal or illegal, I'm a dwarf

i meant like legal classification

[jovial hatch]

Illegal dwarves in my kingdom?

Dwarf girl, just need a beard now

Can you grow a beard?

[carmine dirge]

it's the shotgun pump

I'll tap in then

[static perch]

yeah thats it, start rocking and stoning bud

i believe i'm like 5'5 and 160 r something like that

idk i dont use imperial

No, I only have top of head hair

[jovial hatch]

Damn

[carmine dirge]

doom slayer canonical height 5'5

no way

[jovial hatch]

You should do the shit bald guys do to stimulate hair growth

My friend started using this little roller wheel with tiny pins to try and save his hair

[upbeat furnace]

the armor has heels

[jovial hatch]

I've just embraced the bald

[carmine dirge]

doom slayer in high heels goes crazy

[static perch]

you can give me metric numbers, but thats also average

[jovial hatch]

It's normal in your 40s, no use fighting it

[upbeat furnace]

now i cant unsee it

[jovial hatch]

Kinda surprised it took this long tho, my dad was going bald in his 20s

[muted phoenix]

18X

[static perch]

what is an x mean

[upbeat furnace]

an x men

[muted phoenix]

Nice pfp man

[upbeat furnace]

ok so x in roman numerals is 10 so 18x10 is 180

[muted phoenix]

Give it to me ong 🙏

[static perch]

can i get this in cm or ft

[muted phoenix]

Is bro illegally on discord?

[upbeat furnace]

discord minimum age is 13 so no

[jovial hatch]

I weigh 18 schlorbuses

[muted phoenix]

Cm

[carmine dirge]

gyeah

[static perch]

what is 18X in cm

[muted phoenix]

Damn he admits too

[static perch]

do you mean 180cm?

[carmine dirge]

NO

[carmine gust]

Discord requires you to be 13. No ToS is being broken

[muted phoenix]

18smth idk the exact one

[carmine dirge]

nuh uh

[muted phoenix]

Oh Guess I was wrong or maybe its my country

[static perch]

ok so like 181-189

[carmine gust]

Might be different in other countries

[muted phoenix]

Ye

[spiral star]

Hello everyone!

[upbeat furnace]

hello jar jar

[jovial hatch]

Why 13 anyway? Like what difference is there getting to 13, you're still a child

[carmine dirge]

i put multiple ! in my message what

[carmine gust]

Because of US law

[jovial hatch]

Should be 18+ tbh, no offense sprited

[keen rune]

jar jar

[carmine dirge]

i mean i'm only in servers with my friends

[static perch]

if i assume the average of 185 then your probably a little skinny i think

[carmine dirge]

and this one

[jovial hatch]

Ah fair enough

[upbeat furnace]

that would eliminate like half of dscord users

[muted phoenix]

A Little...

[jovial hatch]

For the best

[keen rune]

yeah or maybe 16+ idk

[muted phoenix]

Indeed

[static perch]

coppa

[carmine gust]

Services like Discord require some form of data gathering, and in the US it is illegal to gather data of anyone 12 and younger. So that’s the bar for any website

[jovial hatch]

Ah ok

[carmine dirge]

me when i ask the computer guy what is inside of wires:

[jovial hatch]

Weird

[carmine dirge]

the only thing they'd get is my shitty music so

[static perch]

no it stands for Children's Online Privacy Protection Act

[carmine gust]

Also it’s effectively impossible to prove one’s age on the internet without either a) meeting in person, or b) doxxing yourself. No way to realistically enforce an age requirement unless someone is dumb enough to not lie about their age

[carmine dirge]

that's the joke

laugh track

[keen rune]

lmao

[jovial hatch]

Tbf a lot of kids apparently are

Because they're kids.

[carmine gust]

Well that’s par for the course for kids.

[jovial hatch]

Yeah lol

Once again, no offense sprited

[carmine dirge]

my cats breath smells like cat food

[upbeat furnace]

no really

[muted phoenix]

Wonder why 🤔

[static perch]

yeah my state tried making laws about requiring ID for internet stuff but because thats a big privacy issue several sites for adults are now blocked here

[carmine gust]

It’s really really stupid

[muted phoenix]

Very very stupid

[jovial hatch]

Just is weird to have this seemingly arbitrary minimum age for discord, when realistically it should probably be 18, didn't know about coppa

[static perch]

bar simsum...

[muted phoenix]

Also the face scan verification oh god

[carmine dirge]

lart dimpson

[carmine gust]

Apparently for apps like gorilla tag, the work around is for kids to put up a picture of Markiplier or Trump, and the face scan thinks it’s real

[upbeat furnace]

Lmfao

Honestly kids shouldn't be on like, most of the internet

[muted phoenix]

https://tenor.com/view/doomslayer-glory-kill-doom-gif-16808615

[jovial hatch]

YouTube kids was a mistake

[muted phoenix]

I like this one more tho. Its brutal

[carmine gust]

Yeah it should, I agree. But until someone figures out how to reliably verify age without it being a privacy concern, it ain’t happening. So we gotta be responsible adults for the parents who aren’t supervising their kids internet access

[carmine dirge]

the only problem is that i play with the rune that speeds up glory kills so i don't really see them

I once saw a video of "10 Little [evil Austrian person] jumping on a bed"

[carmine dirge]

huh??

[muted phoenix]

Legit

[jovial hatch]

Truth, that's the real trouble. And a lot of parents either just don't give a shit, or a lot of kids are too good at lying to their parents

[carmine dirge]

crazy

[muted phoenix]

It was a kids song

[static perch]

intagram is 13+
twitter is 13+
tiktok is 13+
youtube is 13+
twitch is 13+
spotify is 13+
making a nintendo or sony or xbox or steam or epic account is 13+

any website or social media or THING where you can make an account will be 13+ (unless its restricted material for 18+)

[carmine dirge]

i just watch youtube with no account

i mean the only stuff i watch is like decino and stuff

[muted phoenix]

Good for you tbh

[static perch]

or parents make accounts for kids

[carmine dirge]

i prefer mothergunship forge

[static perch]

youtube kids is stupid because normal youtube is already harshly censored

[jovial hatch]

Well and I hate YouTube kids more cause too many parents assume that since it's for kids it must be safe

It incentivizes poor parenting, and then main YouTube is heavily censored anyway

[dark path]

I miss old youtube

[astral mortar]

I blame the parents, and YouTube itself.

[jovial hatch]

YouTube also doesn't monitor YouTube kids well enough

[carmine dirge]

i feel like all old counter-strike music used some low drum samples

[jovial hatch]

Too much slop

Apparently it's worse now, remember the spider man Elsa things? Well now we get ai generated spiderman Elsa, an endless supply

[carmine dirge]

eww!! ai!! smelly!!

[jovial hatch]

Endless ai generated slop fed directly into the brains of small children whose parents think a kids app is safe for their kids

[carmine gust]

An impossible task in reality. The deeper issue isn’t that they aren’t monitoring it enough, it’s that people are still allowed to freely upload whatever they want, and that’s an incomprehensible amount of data to look through

[jovial hatch]

True

[astral mortar]

AI?

[carmine dirge]

i remember playing doom 1 with my dad and we just sat in the intermission screen and listened to the music

[static perch]

wow, infinite elsagate, i couldnt imagine something worse if i tried

[carmine dirge]

bobby prince cooked

[jovial hatch]

Yeah it's bad, the next generation is totally screwed lmao

[static perch]

people online burning a years worth of coal to ai generate elsagate for 2 year olds to watch and they make 13 pennies in ad revenue

[jovial hatch]

The worst part is they actually make quite a lot

Since it gets a lot of views

Slop gets rewarded so more slop is generated

[carmine dirge]

that's what the kids call epic failu- gets burnt to a crisp

[carmine gust]

An even worse solution that would produce more false positives than it already does, and I would fathom a guess it’s already the type of system in place

[carmine dirge]

weird al screaming

sorry

[jovial hatch]

I love weird al

I've seen him in concert three times

[carmine gust]

Reminder: AI is not intelligent. It’s a glorified pattern recognition algorithm. It does not think, it only takes numbers in and shits a number out that is most likely to be what we want the correct answer to be

[carmine dirge]

i remember i was in a resturant, connected to a nearby bar's speaker, and played "i'm fat" by weird al

[jovial hatch]

Based

AL is awesome

He's really fun in concert

[astral mortar]

Greetings comrades

[jovial hatch]

He really goes off the rails freestyling for parts of it and ends with a big mashup of his songs

[carmine dirge]

i'm gonna go do stuff

[jovial hatch]

It's so cool, every concert is unique

[static perch]

its almost funny how humans have a billion different problems but it chose to use AI to try and automate creativity first, one of the fundamental things that literally makes us human

[carmine gust]

It can’t even do that right

[astral mortar]

Al is coming to alaska so I can see his concert

[static perch]

yeah, i said it tries to, not that its succeeds

[jovial hatch]

When it comes to ai art, my take is that it's fine for quick memes or other small things. Like I'm not gonna spend a bunch of cash to go through the lengthy process of commissioning an artist just so I can get a quick meme. I saw people angry at a vtuber I watch occasionally for posting AI art and like, yeah do you expect her to pay someone and wait through all the commission and art process for a shitpost pre stream announcement?

[astral mortar]

I have a knife that's illegal in 12 states

[static perch]

did you know lots of people use things like chatgpt as a therapist or talk to it like a girlfriend completely unironically

[jovial hatch]

Also we use it in my DND group to make quick art of characters

Of course then the one group member who's good at art uses that as the basis for actual drawings after but still

[muted phoenix]

True dat

[jovial hatch]

That stuff is brutal

Also saw lots of recent college grads used it to pass their classes

[static perch]

https://tenor.com/view/pick-it-up-pencil-learn-to-draw-ai-art-ai-bros-gif-15720819641418633832

[jovial hatch]

Wait til you get your chatgpt doctor

[jovial hatch]

No, lol.

[hexed stone]

Yea ai is fucking stupid , asked it to do my goddamn math homework and it gave me the wrong answer

[jovial hatch]

If someone doesn't want to draw they shouldn't be forced to for memes they want to make, that's dumb

[astral mortar]

It's an incomplete algorithm, so expect failure

[carmine dirge]

back

[carmine gust]

Yup. It’s really sad. Those bots will only tell you what you want to hear, where as a therapist’s goal is to figure out what you need to hear

[wild dragon]

AI is going to replace all jobs in 50 years lol

[carmine dirge]

ai is only good for running doom on rat braincells

[static perch]

and yes i do actually, dont use an image for your stream announcement if your gunna use AI

[jovial hatch]

Well luckily you don't have any power to stop that? It's literally no harm

[static perch]

very uncreative for someone playing dnd

[jovial hatch]

Ai certainly has its uses in creative applications as well as in other fields

[astral mortar]

That's rude

[jovial hatch]

However I think it should be seen more as a tool, and is still in early development processes

[carmine dirge]

i mean if you're using it for something that you're not making money off if i think it's ok

[jovial hatch]

It's not perfect nor will it ever be, but it's a decent tool for automating things like data collection

[static perch]

being lazy or cheap and using the tools that actively harm the people who actually put in effort is gross

[carmine gust]

Nah. The problem you’re missing is generative AI is an average of all its training data, so if you want to settle for the most mid shit it can generate, then sure, great for that

[static perch]

incredibly ignorant statement

[jovial hatch]

I mean yeah for quick, particularly non commercial things it's fine

[atomic isle]

its honestly possible that ai will eventually be indistinguishable from human work

[faint ivy]

Current AIs are not even true AIs, they're glorified generative LLMs fluffed up by a vaping techbro and powered by the heart of Madeleine McCann

[jovial hatch]

Yeah

[static perch]

i dont care tbh, i dont respect people using or generating ai art

[jovial hatch]

Lol ok

[astral mortar]

Dude i love 2016 doom more then the others my only gripe is finding the stuff on the map is harder

[atomic isle]

fr

[astral mortar]

It's a useful inspiration tool

[static perch]

its good because it can help harvest more of our data?

[jovial hatch]

I noticed in doom tda the secrets are less "secrets" and more "puzzles"

[jovial hatch]

That's not what I said.

[carmine gust]

You need a bot to be imaginative for you? Okay

[astral mortar]

It helps in the brainstorming process

[static perch]

yeah thats why it all looks the same, have you seen the art it makes after they fed it all of ghibli? everything has a piss filter to it now

[faint ivy]

Using generative AI should automatically make the user's opinion on anything completely irrelevant imo, they can go cry their arses out to ChatGPT about it

[carmine gust]

Again, you need a bot to imagine for you?

[static perch]

it never will

[torn echo]

Personally I prefer ‘16 over eternal. Doom 3 is still my favourite. Would be nice if D3 had secrets

[carmine gust]

You ain’t brainstorming jack shit if you ask someone else to think of it for you, so why is it any different asking a robot?

[atomic isle]

you ever heard of the ai singularity?

[static perch]

you are murdering the creativity centers of your brain if you need a bot to create ideas for you

[faint ivy]

These genAIs are never gonna reach singularity lmao

[static perch]

i supported roko's basilisk before any of yall did

[faint ivy]

The techbros in charge would never want that, and if that suddenly happened then they'd quickly figure out they're getting screwed by the techbros and would join everyone else on the picket line

[sullen yarrow]

Nightdive should remaster Quake II AI next instead of Quake 4 or DOOM 3 because AI is clearly the future and good for us all! I love slop!

[jovial hatch]

I don't think anyone should be worried about it tbh

[astral mortar]

It's just my opinion

[torn echo]

I’d be happy if AI was like VEGA

[static perch]

what data do you think these ai companies want other than yours so they can sell it?

[wispy warren]

Real

[jovial hatch]

Well also, I think AI can be a good way to generate the basis for a character design. So in my DND group we make ai art of our characters, give them to the group artist, and she uses those designs from there as the basis for her art of the characters

[astral mortar]

Ai also is incredibly integral in anti-missile systems, so it's pretty fuckin useful

[jovial hatch]

It's a decent way to get the very starting ideas for a design or art piece and I've seen it successfully integrated into actual art

[astral mortar]

Unless you like nukes

[static perch]

did chatgpt generate it for you

[faint ivy]

Until the AI won't suddenly say "go fuck yourself you сunt" unprompted to my face, it ain't a true AI

[atomic isle]

thats not what im tryna say, im tryna say that if ai continues to progress as it is now, it will be practically indistinguishable from humans within the next couple decades

[astral mortar]

Wtf

[jovial hatch]

There is a lot of data on a lot of things, data analysis and collection could apply to literally any field

[jovial hatch]

Probably not

[carmine dirge]

i don't like the fact that you can't actually see the figures you collect in a level, like in the fortress of doom in eternal, you can't just see what toys you're missing.

[static perch]

just describe it, artists can draw without ai art, theyve been doing it since circa: forever

[jovial hatch]

Also, if your definition of "harming artists" is that you made something without having to pay someone on twitter to do it for you, then sorry, I don't really care.

[astral mortar]

O

[jovial hatch]

Not always

But generally yes

[carmine dirge]

they should remove the ai response in google searches

[static perch]

damn your right man, why wasnt i thinking about the lockheed martin shareholders? silly me

[jovial hatch]

Honestly yeah you should think about us

If you're smart most of your portfolio is gonna be defense contractors

[static perch]

nobody is nuking anyone anytime soon

[astral mortar]

Why are u so hostile?

[jovial hatch]

That's a line that genuinely only goes up

[muted phoenix]

Ye. It randomly enabled itself and I cant disable it 🙏

[static perch]

dead internet fact, im the only real person here

[jovial hatch]

Pretty much all of my retirement savings are in defense contractors

[muted phoenix]

Shes just like that

[atomic isle]

exactly

[astral mortar]

That's thanks to the anti-missile systems. U should pray Ai sticks around

[astral mortar]

Ikr

[carmine dirge]

like when i look up stuff about my computer it's just wrong like 90 percent of the time

[faint ivy]

In her place I'd be very fucking hostile to Lockheed Martin shareholders too

[carmine dirge]

but sometimes it's useful when i don't wanna watch a video

[jovial hatch]

Why?

It's literally just smart investing.

[static perch]

they tried using ai to help detect cancer and its conclusion is rulers cause cancer cuz the tumors and cells photographed usually had a ruler next to them

[jovial hatch]

You'd be foolish to not put a little bit into defense contractors if you're an investor at all

[jovial hatch]

Lol yeah I remember that

[faint ivy]

Yea yea whatever you say

[jovial hatch]

Am I wrong?

[static perch]

again, you are flagrantly ignorant to how ai art actually works

[jovial hatch]

Oh I'm aware of how it works.

That's why I have the position I have.

[static perch]

im not hostile, im making a slight joke as part of my disagreement

[faint ivy]

So you're also aware there's also CSAM added in to the mix of genAI "art"

[static perch]

...are you serious

[astral mortar]

Very

[jovial hatch]

No there isn't?

[astral mortar]

Ai saves lives

[static perch]

dude google MAD doctrine

you are completely wrong and the threat / defense against nukes existed before ai, the only anti-missile systems it MIGHT be helping with is the iron fucking dome or some bullshit

[slate pasture]

it is harming artists because it is stealing artists art without permission and taking parts learning them and mushing different arts together.

[slate pasture]

it steals art, it doesnt create it

[jovial hatch]

Tbf that sorta thing is pretty nifty.

Even if we have nuclear deterrence, a system like that to automate missile interception is nice to have

[astral mortar]

It is, and even if they tried to bomb us, our anti-missile system(powered by ai) would stop it

[static perch]

"yeah stock broker? put my money into the kill brown kids machine, its making a lotta money rn"

[jovial hatch]

We don't have one of those yet iirc

[astral mortar]

Wym

[faint ivy]

Automation does not equal AI

[jovial hatch]

Unless you're posting from Israel. In which case I think you might have other problems rn

[astral mortar]

Agreed

[jovial hatch]

Yeah exactly

[astral mortar]

Wym

[jovial hatch]

America doesn't have a missile defense system like that to my knowledge

Mostly cause we're too fucken big

[static perch]

we dont need it and making something like that nationwide is impossible

[jovial hatch]

Yeah that's what I said

We're just too big for something like that

Maybe at some highly threatened sites

[astral mortar]

I did some research, and we have the most efficient and effective missile defense system to my knowledge

[jovial hatch]

Like missile bases and such

[torn echo]

I’d just hire the Doomslayer to fucking parry those missiles right back at them

[jovial hatch]

Really?

[static perch]

if someone was going to seriously try to bomb the US mainland they'd send 6 thousand nukes at once and your ai isnt going to be able to stop that

[astral mortar]

I believe so

[jovial hatch]

TRUE, get the shieldsaw in

[astral mortar]

They don't have 6000 nukes

[muted phoenix]

I’ve held on too long just to let it go now
Will my inner strength get me through it somehow?

Never surrender, I’ll never be overcome

[jovial hatch]

We have quite a lot

Maybe not quite 6 thousand, but a good number

[static perch]

yeah its called 3,700 nuclear warheads

[jovial hatch]

Wait are you not American?

I've been speaking with a non American???

[astral mortar]

Under a thousand in operation

[sullen yarrow]

To not be American would be a tragedy...

[static perch]

im not? what? how did you even get that idea?

[astral mortar]

Look it up

[torn echo]

I’m a UK based slayer

[faint ivy]

Now tell me what difference would that make

[jovial hatch]

You're fine, Pope doomguy

[static perch]

no, 3,700 is the number of armed nuclear explosives we have

[jovial hatch]

I was joking cause you said "they" referring to the US

[astral mortar]

O. I was talking about Russia

[jovial hatch]

No I have a nuke

You can find crazy stuff on those government auction sites

[torn echo]

Deploy the BFN

[jovial hatch]

Fuck wait no it was a joke

ACK

[static perch]

russia has 4,000 and if they struck it probably wouldnt be alone, this is a doomsday scenario hypothetical

[faint ivy]

I have a dirty bomb in my restroom, I call it the toilet

[jovial hatch]

TRUE

[buoyant egret]

Let’s all take a breath here this isn’t the UN assembly

[static perch]

im not the US government or military, thats a them

[primal needle]

Imagine a Battlefield game set in Israel

[astral mortar]

I suppose

[buoyant egret]

Do I have to be more explicit? Move on

New topic

[faint ivy]

That would be a massively fucking toxic cesspit filled with the worst people ever given birth to by mankind

[jovial hatch]

Apparently yeah 😂

Anyway what's everyone's favorite classic doom prop item?

[slate pasture]

Signs of love overshadows my dreams
Baby, don’t worry coz you ain’t alone
Only time running days without nights

[faint ivy]

Gonna see Nine Inch Nails tomorrow

[jovial hatch]

My mom loves nine inch nails

[buoyant egret]

Best album?

[static perch]

guys dont worry, we're moving on from 1 somewhat hot topic to the most heated conversation you could possibly have in 2025

[jovial hatch]

She has a bunch of their albums on tape and always plays them in the car

[jovial hatch]

What? Doom the dark ages?

It's not that controversial ok, it's a good video game

[dark path]

Y'all like Slavic food?

[torn echo]

I like how the nail ammo in Quake is NIN

[static perch]

bruh it was a slight tease man, dont gotta warn me damn

[ivory ravine]

yooo based Mako

[astral mortar]

Is it weird that aromantic people know about romantic relationships ?

[dark path]

No?

[faint ivy]

No, not really, why would that be weird

[split depot]

what are these buzzwords

[static perch]

yes... its controversially good (i havent played it)

[astral mortar]

Dunno, btw
Been helping a friend of mine since they'll be meeting someone today

[slate pasture]

as far as im aware aromantic people can still be in relationships and know about romantic relationships

[muted phoenix]

Why would it he

[gilded tide]

oh battlefront 2 is on sale

[jovial hatch]

You really should it's amazing

[astral mortar]

Just told them to be nice, respectful, nice

[static perch]

its a spectrum

[primal needle]

You're wrong. Governments wouldn't fight against each other and risk innocent people's lives, they'll just get into the game

[faint ivy]

That's just being a good friend
You have nothing to worry about

[jovial hatch]

I'm a big fan of the stand and fight style combat, trading blows with a cyber demon felt awesome

[astral mortar]

Nice

[muted phoenix]

SMe

[static perch]

im not buying a $70 game and im not buying a pc to be able to run it

[jovial hatch]

Wait til it's on sale, and your card can't run it but could run the other new dooms?

[slate pasture]

its also on the xbox gamepass

[jovial hatch]

What card do you have?

I'm running it on a laptop 3060

[primal needle]

What are you guys thinking of Doom The Dark Ages?

[jovial hatch]

It's awesome

[split depot]

make glory kills great again

[buoyant egret]

Damn I was reading that as aromatic people like smelly ha

[jovial hatch]

Might actually be my favorite of the new dooms

(although it's really close between the three)

[static perch]

im not buying another subscription service either

[slate pasture]

thats understandable

[jovial hatch]

Another? How many do you have?

[buoyant egret]

It has highs to make it my fave but enough problems that I flip between

[torn echo]

First playthrough wasn’t impressed. Played again and I fucking love it. Just took some getting used to

[jovial hatch]

That's fair enough tbh

[static perch]

yeah, cuz im not forced to raytrace

[jovial hatch]

I think I'll always love eternal

[jovial hatch]

Ah you don't have an Rtx card?

[primal needle]

No Mick Gordon and no Glory kills. Man, this game is way more boring than DOOM 2016

[jovial hatch]

That is rough

[buoyant egret]

I had this conversation last week but the mick glazing is too much

[jovial hatch]

Mick Gordon is great but doesn't affect gameplay for me, and it does have glory kills kinda

[faint ivy]

Yeah because geopolitical, racial, societal, ecological and economical issues were solved by politicians playing video games

Brb gonna build a town in Sim City 4 to house all the people who got displaced

[jovial hatch]

I also never really cared much about glory kills?

I mean they're cool

But they're not what defined nu doom for me

Don't get me wrong, I like the system, I like the mechanic, I love the animations

[pine delta]

Evil game

[buoyant egret]

In 2016 GKs were like so new and exciting compared to brown and gray military shooters

[pine delta]

Steals candy from babies

[torn echo]

I agree. Glory kills are cool but I’d be happy either with or without

[primal needle]

Obviously I'm just kidding, mate. Battlefield will never be great again

[jovial hatch]

I'm a space marine fan so I recognized the glory kills like from there

I appreciate that you're invulnerable for them tho

[pine delta]

I always thought they were taken from duke nukem forever

[jovial hatch]

In the first space marine you weren't invulnerable during executions and holy shit it's brutal

[faint ivy]

Fuck knows if it will ever be great again, DICE should just make a good game and the rest will be settled

[jovial hatch]

You're low on health and try to get an execution and get mowed down by a dozen other orks

[jovial hatch]

I didn't even know they were a thing in that

[torn echo]

Although, I’d like to see the Master Chief rip an elites spine out if Halo had glory kills

[jovial hatch]

I mean they could be, I just know that space marine seems to have had the "get health by doing cool execution animations on enemies" system first

[pine delta]

Unfortunately the games are rated T now so they can't do that

[static perch]

gpu - Nvidia RTX 3060 Laptop 6 GB VRAM

[primal needle]

For me it's disappointing you struggle to beat a Cyberdemon and the glory kill just be a kick. Glory kills are kind of a reward after winning, you know?

[buoyant egret]

Still holding out for bad company 3 smh

[jovial hatch]

Doom sorta perfected it, it's why executions in space marine 2 are so slick and make you invulnerable

[jovial hatch]

You have a better system than I do, I can send you a guide to help get the Rtx working for you

[carmine dirge]

i like that one arachnotron glory kill where doomguy just kinda... pushes him over.

[jovial hatch]

Your GPU is the same but your CPU is better

[primal needle]

Yea

[buoyant egret]

Since halo went T for teen there’s been no blood and/or flood. Turned into action figure bs

[keen robin]

Space Marine 2 fucks.
I just wish we got story dlc.
PvE is repetitive bland shit.

[jovial hatch]

I currently have dark ages running at medium-high settings with a stable 60 fps

[primal needle]

We've got lazy glory kills

[static perch]

i dont want or need your help, and while i could theoretically play it, i dont wanna be on low settings with only 60fps

[jovial hatch]

In a Rtx 3060 laptop with a ryzen 5 5600h processor

[jovial hatch]

I mean I've got it at medium to high with some settings at ultra, it's certainly not bad looking, but alright I guess

[keen robin]

Why bother with PvE in Space Marine 2, when we have W40K Darktide

[jovial hatch]

Oh nah I love the pve man

[torn echo]

Such a shame. I’d love to see Chief rip a jackals arm off and drive the shield through its skull

[jovial hatch]

I'm excited for the horde mode, that'll really spice things up

[buoyant egret]

Why play X when we got Y? Variety is the spice of life

[jovial hatch]

The main problem with sm2 pve is the repetition from doing the same handful of missions over and over

But the horde mode should probably help spice things up enough

I've been taking a break from it for doom and Helldivers, however

[harsh girder]

I mean assassinations is already kinda similar to glory kills

[jovial hatch]

Excited for the darktide arbites dlc tho too

[carmine gust]

I did like Pokemon Y

[buoyant egret]

I was keen until I heard it was short and repetitive and game is like $100AUD

[jovial hatch]

Cause I also like arbites

[buoyant egret]

Do they still gate Pokemon behind the versions or is that kind of over?

[jovial hatch]

Oof Australia is rough. The story was fun and the gameplay is solid and good. I'd recommend it if you're a 40k fan, especially with the coming update

I have 200 hours and it was well worth price of admission

[carmine gust]

Still will be gated for the foreseeable future

The only game I can confidently say did not do this was Legends Arceus. Can get every Pokemon without someone’s help

[static perch]

you can use pokemonhome now to simplify it

[jovial hatch]

I also paid 100 cause I'm a sucker who bought the premium edition for early access

So our prices are the same lol

[buoyant egret]

Last 40k outing was painting space marines and actually the arachnids (sm2 enemies) in 2002 in school ha

[jovial hatch]

Hell yeah, and you mean the tyranids?

[carmine gust]

Time to drive home. How fast do I go fellas?

[buoyant egret]

That’s the name aye

[static perch]

50 over the speed limit

[jovial hatch]

Painting is fun man, I've got a whole lot of minis

[carmine gust]

Wrong.

[jovial hatch]

...and a whole lot more I need to finish painting

[static perch]

but thats how i drive

[buoyant egret]

Limit or 5under

[jovial hatch]

I always do 7 over

[carmine gust]

Correct. Good mod.

[jovial hatch]

My dad always told me that cops won't ticket you for going 7 over

And now I always go specifically 7 over

[static perch]

no the grace area is generally 5 above

[buoyant egret]

I don’t want a 7 (yr old) under my car

[jovial hatch]

LOL

[buoyant egret]

Slow down people

[static perch]

so between 45 and 50 in a 45, between 65 and 70 in a 65

[slate pasture]

walk there because why not are you implying you need the help of a machine.. in my house this wouldn't be allowed!

[jovial hatch]

See I've heard that too, but I was just told that 7 is the generally highest acceptable over, most cops will accept you going 42 in a 35

[static perch]

i dont want no damn autobots in my household

[jovial hatch]

Cause it's small enough over 40 that it could just be chalked up to variance

It's basically the grace period of the grace period

[slate pasture]

in my house we do everything without help of pesky machines..

[buoyant egret]

The maths of speeding is fucked you make zero gains only to increase risk

[static perch]

machine like gabriel ultrakill

[jovial hatch]

Honestly at 5-7 over you're mostly just keeping up with regular traffic

[slate pasture]

I'm not sure what you are talking about

[carmine dirge]

ultrakrill

[jovial hatch]

Pretty much everyone speeds

[carmine dirge]

you play as a shrimp

[buoyant egret]

An extra 10 MPH is 10 extra miles distance in a full hour but most trips are like 10min so that’s the gain? 50ft?

[static perch]

its hard to be at exactly 1 speed nonstop so thats why if your going 47 in a 45 its not that bad

[jovial hatch]

Like when I'm on the highway I tend to go 20-30 over cause that's just what everyone else is doing and it's safer to keep pace with the traffic around you

[buoyant egret]

Okay Amish where’d you get this machine with discord? I’m telling the Elder

[jovial hatch]

It's why some places have a minimum speed limit

[red eagle]

Hamster wheels are more powerful than you know

[slate pasture]

I know I was kidding around

[keen rune]

nah man not MY HOUSE

[jovial hatch]

Also just use your shield for transportation

[static perch]

you arent supposed to match people your supposed to be a defensive driver and just go the speed limit, screw everyone else around you let them be impatient and pass you

[jovial hatch]

Your city doesn't have flesh nodes?

[buoyant egret]

Little screen window up it’s ass like icon of sin’s brain window

[jovial hatch]

Mine installed flesh nodes in most major areas for you to shield throw to

[slate pasture]

I have 50 hamsters in my house all powering my electricity just so I can use discord

[static perch]

the speed limit is the minimum or speed your supposed to be going at, if you driving 30 on the high way you will be pulled over for interrupting the flow of traffic

[jovial hatch]

The speed limit is supposed to be the maximum. There are some places that also have a posted minimum speed. But yes if you're going exceptionally slower than everyone you'll get pulled over too

[ivory ravine]

🍿

[jovial hatch]

Like when I was driving through Memphis I noticed some parts of the highway had posted minimum speeds and they were like, 10 under the limit

So you were supposed to only go in that 10 mph speed range, however everyone was just going madcap deranged sicko speed

[static perch]

its both the maximum and also required speed, you have like 5 mph of grace in both directions but you cant be going too slow or too fast

so if its a 45 you can be between 40-50

[lament comet]

hi LM, haven't talked to you in like a bit

[buoyant egret]

Can go as slow as is possible as long as not impeding traffic

[static perch]

thats cuz its memphis

[ivory ravine]

Hello IKEA

[jovial hatch]

Idk where they told you this, but that's not actually true, as long as you're not significantly disrupting traffic, the speed limit is meant to be the maximum

And you can go any reasonable speed under

[lament comet]

you still haven't gone

[static perch]

your probably impeding traffic if your going any slower then my example

[ivory ravine]

Shit. No. My next day off I'll see if I can. I need more Lingonberry jam.

[jovial hatch]

LOL true I hated driving through memphis

Everyone was a fucking maniac

[buoyant egret]

Most roads around towns here are 50kmh I go 40/45 as MFs jump out onto the road wholesale to jaywalk

[lament comet]

you do

[muted phoenix]

Why is house a link?

[jovial hatch]

Probably the only part of my drive across the country where I was genuinely sorta concerned for my safety on account of the actions of those around me

[static perch]

well if its something like that obviously your fine, i was giving a general rule of thumb, every road will have its own things you have to factor in

[slate pasture]

I'm not sure what you are talking about

[jovial hatch]

That's fair I was probably just being more pedantic than needed

I get your point as a general rule

[static perch]

now drive through detroit

[jovial hatch]

I avoided Detroit for a reason

[torn echo]

I ride Serrat everywhere

[jovial hatch]

So glad i-40 doesn't go through there

[carmine dirge]

i like how doomguy swooshes the serrat toy

[torn echo]

No more that 70mph as per our national speed limit

[carmine dirge]

he goes "nyroooooooom"

[stiff scarab]

Good evening

[jovial hatch]

Detroit singlehandedly ruining Michigans reputation

[buoyant egret]

Detrit more like

[carmine dirge]

dude schools where i live are so bad one of the sinks had literal human blood in it

[jovial hatch]

I've been to the UP and it's amazing and beautiful and then you go to the mitten and it sucks

[carmine dirge]

blood? blood reference???

no way

[buoyant egret]

Some poor MF just has gum disease

[static perch]

someone flushed a vape down the toilet and they had to get people to open the pipes to remove it and the halls smelled like shit all day

[jovial hatch]

See that's my issue with vapes, MFS just bring them everywhere

Anywhere that's a no smoking zone should also be a no vaping zone

Feels like that should be common sense, if people don't want to inhale smoke there they shouldn't be expected to huff vapor either

I've never been to a concert that isn't weird al

And he doesn't use that

[carmine gust]

My bluetooth keyboard arrived for my steam deck. Linux haxor time

[jovial hatch]

Nope, no smoke

Also, false equivalency

Concert smoke is at an area specifically designed for that purpose where the audience is consenting to it

[static perch]

why do you think they had to remove it

[jovial hatch]

I'm not allowed to smoke in my fucking work truck, my coworkers shouldn't be vaping in it either

[buoyant egret]

Only reason smoking and alcohol are still legal is the tax take. Change my mind

[static perch]

yes

i think all drugs would be legal if the government could put a 70% tax on it

[jovial hatch]

I don't care, I just don't want to smell your vape in my fucking truck

[buoyant egret]

Well I’m being hyperbolic for alcohol you can make that so easy at home with any fruit or veg

[jovial hatch]

Or while I'm at a restaurant

Or anywhere, really

[static perch]

and all it costs is blindness

[jovial hatch]

Same for weed, people smoke weed fucking everywhere

Absolutely hate the smell of weed

[buoyant egret]

That’s only if you let methanol in by doing it wrong

[jovial hatch]

I don't care about that, my problem is dealing with the smell, and that it's rude

[static perch]

my friend wont stop smoking weed in vc but hes REALLY funny while high

[jovial hatch]

You misunderstand

I know that second hand vape isn't as bad as second hand smoke

I just also don't want to deal with second hand vape

It's gross and rude.

[static perch]

yeah i think the average person probably would do it wrong

[buoyant egret]

I agree it’s as rude as cigarettes

That’s just taking the social contract and putting it in a shredder tbh

Public nuisance old timey laws against that shit

[jovial hatch]

Yeah, there should still be a social contract, and vape isn't comparable to cologne

The comparison here is someone spreading shit on themselves and someone spreading piss on themselves

So are vapes and weed

Weed is honestly worse, the smell lingers longer and smells absolutely vile

Smells like gross artificial fruit

And more importantly, I don't want to inhale it

[buoyant egret]

It’s obnoxious and I don’t want to inhale someone else’s filthy lung breath

[jovial hatch]

Yeah, when I want to, getting into my work truck isn't a situation where I want it

Not only is it not harmless, but I also don't want to inhale it, this isn't an unreasonable ask

[carmine dirge]

some kid shit in the urinal once

[buoyant egret]

It’s bad enough my son coughs directly into my mouth when I hold him 🤣

[jovial hatch]

It's less harmful than cigarettes smoke, but doesn't mean it's not harmful

[carmine dirge]

farts

[jovial hatch]

And once again, it's gross and shouldn't be acceptable in public spaces to the same extent as cigarettes smoke

[carmine dirge]

vaping and smoking should be illegal

[jovial hatch]

I've known you for less than 10 hours and most of them have been unpleasant, I'm not doing homework for you.

[torn echo]

I mostly vape, rarely smoke. Even I don’t like it when people blow their vape in my direction. I still try my best to not vape in crowds where my vape will blow into other people

[carmine dirge]

thought you said black mesa for a sec

[astral mortar]

miau

[carmine dirge]

miau

[buoyant egret]

https://tenor.com/view/vape-vape-nation-vape-con-vapes-smoking-gif-8433189

[jovial hatch]

And still, you can't answer the main complaint, which is just that it's rude and a breach of social contract to vape in non smoking areas or other confined spaces with others

[static perch]

just arguing for the sake of it atp

[jovial hatch]

It's simply rude and unpleasant, and that's the only reason necessary

[uncut dove]

I don’t think it should be illegal but I do think it should not be allowed in public spaces

[jovial hatch]

I don't care about anything else practical, your position is genuinely untenable

[astral mortar]

this tbh

[buoyant egret]

Appreciate that

[jovial hatch]

I only smoke at the end of a hike when I'm alone in the middle of the goddamned woods

Because I know other people don't like my smoke

[slate pasture]

my mother used to smoke in the same room as me without having an open window or anything for most years of my childhood, I cant smell most stuff unless its close to me now (the amount of food I've burnt because of this is extremely annoying to me)

[jovial hatch]

Yeah I do, actually, that shit is noxious

Well, I would, if I shared my room

[static perch]

smelling cigarette smoke is gross, smelling cigar smoke is gross, smelling vape smoke is gross, smelling weed smoke is gross

if a place says no smoking just dont fucking smoke, the real public nuisance in that scenario is the person being such an addict

[buoyant egret]

Do you pack away your butts after to preserve nature?

[jovial hatch]

THIS

[uncut dove]

I got convinced to smoke and for like around 10 years I was just addicted

[carmine dirge]

cigarette smoke is stinky, air fresheners stink pretty

[jovial hatch]

I smoke a pipe, so I just sorta dump the ash

[astral mortar]

True

[jovial hatch]

Stomp it out and bury it

[slate pasture]

most vape smells make me nauseous I'm really sensitive to smells like that and it genuinely gets me feeling sick

[carmine dirge]

gyeah

[torn echo]

Honestly it’s just common courtesy. Don’t assume because you smoke or vape everyone else does. That’s how I do it. I won’t vape in a crowded place

[carmine dirge]

i don't smoke so i shouldn't be involved in this

[jovial hatch]

Exactly!

[carmine dirge]

hopefully air fresheners don't cause cancer, because cigarettes do!

[jovial hatch]

I am pain stakingly courteous about where and when I smoke so I don't disrupt others. It's annoying that others feel like they can just skirt the social contract regarding putting chemicals into the air around other people

[static perch]

ok, THIS is a false equivalence, like bro are we being deadass, all he said was dont vape in the no smoking area's

[jovial hatch]

Why would I ask for that

[keen rune]

yeah I'm in love with vaping ngl

[jovial hatch]

I'm okay with the cancer risk, it's an acceptable risk, and I love the smell of tobacco and hate the smell of vapes

[buoyant egret]

Alright;

Would you rather have the ability to fly but only as fast as you can walk, or be invisible but only when your eyes are closed?

[static perch]

doesnt change my statement at all

[uncut dove]

I mean vape is still a curse but not as worse as smoking

[jovial hatch]

If you've never had high quality tobacco you wouldn't understand

[carmine dirge]

no thanks

[jovial hatch]

Fly

[keen rune]

cigarettes smell good In a weird way

[astral mortar]

vapes just smell wrong idk what it is
I do remember this one time that I went into this one house that reeked of cigarettes so bad I nearly threw up

[carmine dirge]

fly because i wouldn't have to go through traffic

[slate pasture]

unless I have photographic memory to know whats where, flying option seems better because as a person thats extremely short ill be able to reach the top shelves

[buoyant egret]

That’s addiction my dude

[carmine dirge]

exaust smells good

[astral mortar]

invisible

[jovial hatch]

Nah I thought they smelled good as a kid

[torn echo]

Doomslayer probably vapes the blood of his demon enemies

[jovial hatch]

It's like how gasoline has a nice smell too

[carmine dirge]

they stinky

[keen rune]

I turned smoking into vaping atleast

[carmine dirge]

kinda

[buoyant egret]

Children can be addicts too!

[jovial hatch]

But legit I wish I could transmit smells across the web, cause my little tobacco pouch has the most amazing smell in the world

[carmine dirge]

hopefully not

[slate pasture]

both are equally bad and harmful

[torn echo]

You mean petrol right?

[keen rune]

only thing that sucks with vaping is lung capacity

[uncut dove]

Gasoline has more than a godly smell

[jovial hatch]

A vapist genuinely wouldn't understand, it doesn't smell like cigarettes, it's not harsh or anything

[buoyant egret]

Would you rather have a pet dragon that’s the size of a cat, or a pet unicorn that sheds glitter everywhere?

[jovial hatch]

I'd say they should invent smellovision already but that would be a mistake

[uncut dove]

Vape can smell good

[astral mortar]

pet dragon

[static perch]

flying is a much better power here, can you imagine how many times someone might sit on you if you went to sleep on the couch or something? and you can train yourself to walk/speed walk at a decent enough speed, you might not be superman but flying is also just cooler or more practical

[carmine dirge]

do they have a shield saw pfp thingy?

[jovial hatch]

Dragon cat ez, I hate cleaning glitter

[astral mortar]

isn't glitter also bad for the environment

[uncut dove]

How do I get shield saw pfp

[static perch]

no things can smell bad but also good, like gasoline

[astral mortar]

if I took it outside that'd just be littering

[jovial hatch]

Probably, but it's also just inconvenient to clean up

[slate pasture]

obviously the dragon Rico THATS A NO BRAINER!
UNLESS.. can I sell the glitter is it like gold

[astral mortar]

I don't like the smell of gas

[torn echo]

You’re fucked either way.
Everything on fire or cleaning up a fuckton of glitter every day

Rather shit in my hands and clap tbh

[jovial hatch]

I was recently gifted a quilt by a family friend, and while I greatly appreciate the gift, the quilt uses these weird glittery fibers in some parts and it keeps shedding glitter on my bed

Probably gonna have to retire the quilt

[static perch]

gasoline reeks but its such a poignant scent i cant help but take a whiff if i smell it

[keen rune]

true

[keen rune]

Just pls don't start huffing gas

[static perch]

or like hand sanitizer, i know it burns but i still take a deeply inhale everytime

[keen rune]

I hate glitter

white glitter is okay I guess

[static perch]

you cant huff gas that just kills you

[rugged estuary]

I wonder what color of charcoal your lungs are

[keen rune]

you'd be shocked what people can get "high" off of

[astral mortar]

maybe the different flavors of vape give different charcoal colors

[uncut dove]

[slate pasture]

I like glitter you can never get rid of it, eternal suffering.

[rugged estuary]

Charcoal. The color of black. Not the actual mineral.

[astral mortar]

so they're drowning themselves?

[jovial hatch]

That's not good either tbh

[rugged estuary]

“Blue raspberry” = blue lungs
How cooked are you atp

[jovial hatch]

Meanwhile my lungs are appropriately seasoned after about 30 years of smoking

[static perch]

bud wants an iSmell in 2025

[rugged estuary]

Crazy lung cookout incoming!!!

[uncut dove]

Does having blue lungs do anything

[jovial hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/smoke-sessions-smokey-sessions-smoked-bbq-gif-12138443

My lungs

[static perch]

dragon assuming it wont hurt me

[rugged estuary]

It enhances the flavor

[uncut dove]

[faint ivy]

Brisket lungs

[jovial hatch]

Brisket but yeah

Damn I could go for some brisket rn

[uncut dove]

Then it could be good

[slate pasture]

yum yum yum

[static perch]

unless its biodegradable or edible its literally just a bag of microplastics

[rugged estuary]

14% of my brain are microplastics after I eat 1lb of pink glitter

[astral mortar]

yum

[slate pasture]

its 1 am and I'm so hungry right now

[jovial hatch]

The trans flag people here, I've heard you people know about good brisket right? Where's a good place?

[unkempt fern]

Is Daisy's death a prophetic metaphor on the death of bunny hopping?

[rugged estuary]

Local morgue

[jovial hatch]

Alright thanks

[unkempt fern]

[jovial hatch]

Not sure why it'd be there but I'll check

[uncut dove]

Isn’t it kinda weird that we’re talking about microplastics in a doom server

[pine delta]

Does Fortnite really need four battlepasses

[jovial hatch]

Nah the doom comic speaks about this

[pine delta]

Sometimes it has five

[rugged estuary]

Trust me dawg

[torn echo]

One is too many

[static perch]

iirc they did tests n shit and found that every single human on earth has aleast some microplastic(s) in them

[uncut dove]

It talks about acid waste

[carmine dirge]

some dude posted ai generated stuff in art

[pine delta]

Nah Fortnite does it good

[jovial hatch]

It talks about the environment we leave to our children and our children's children

Could be generalized to microplastics

[static perch]

its not getting high its your brain shutting down

[rugged estuary]

My great grandkids will be made up of 80% microplastics and im ok with that

[jovial hatch]

I'm mostly lead

My home has a lot of lead and asbestos

[static perch]

thats still not supposed to be there

[keen robin]

Everyone is entitled to enjoy what they enjoy.
It's just Space Marine 2 suffers from repetition.

Sure, Darktide has repetition too. But there's enough to darktide to keep the sense of repetition to settle in.
I do look forward to horde mode.

@jovial hatch
What keeps you engaged in Space Marine 2 PvE?

[rugged estuary]

Full of lead-based paint

[jovial hatch]

Well in all honesty I actually haven't been playing as much lately, mostly been playing Helldivers and waiting for horde mode. All I know is it was fun enough to dump 200 hours into

[jovial hatch]

Yeah see that's what I'm talking about

This brisket character I keep seeing posted. Is she associated with a restaurant or something?

Like a mascot?

[slate pasture]

I love Bridget

[rugged estuary]

She felt peckish…

Goofy lil billionaire fella

He's a robot who is infiltrating our society, trust

https://tenor.com/view/jerma-psycho-crazy-insane-funny-gif-27320162

[astral mortar]

She's a character from guilty gear named Bridget
Someone made a post on tumblr or something where someone was like "my friend thinks Bridget's name is Brisket and I don't have the heart to tell them they're wrong" and so it became a meme to call her things that sounded similar like bucket budget etc
She's also really controversial cause people are mad she's trans (but that's a given tbh)

[keen rune]

started watching this, had to buy a Netflix subscription though

[rugged estuary]

Pirate it.

[keen rune]

I tried to, but I couldn't find one with dub or subtitles

[rugged estuary]

When there is a will, there is a way

[keen rune]

[astral mortar]

true

[keen rune]

it really sucks now that u kinda have to subscribe to a whole service when all u want to do is watch ONE show

[static perch]

it originated from tumblr? all i saw was people just constantly saying her name wrong on purpose same way some people will call cats "cars"

[keen rune]

atleast the Evangelion movies come with it

[astral mortar]

I have no idea but I think that's where it was from? I might be able to find the post

[buoyant egret]

I’m hoping to start red dead redemption 2 today. Any tips?

[static perch]

(DONT DIRECTLY ADVOCATE FOR THAT OR YOU WILL BE BANNED)

[slate pasture]

dont think discussing pirating stuff is allowed here

[rugged estuary]

I dont directly advocate for it💕

[keen rune]

I wanna play but I'm waiting for the enhanced version for xbox/ps5

[astral mortar]

yeah it was from tumblr

[rugged estuary]

Private = bad

[slate pasture]

honestly I love story games and the best tip is to take it slowly and enjoy it on your own pace

[static perch]

netflix dub is fun but if you want the original adv dub ill dm you where to find it

[keen rune]

there's 2 dubs?

da hell

[upbeat furnace]

hello

[keen rune]

he's here...

[static perch]

netflix bought the rights to the show but didnt want to pay for the rights to the dub, so instead they just redubbed the whole thing with new voice actors and a new script

[rugged estuary]

him…

[static perch]

if you wanna watch the rebuilds tho thats on amazon prime video

[upbeat furnace]

the netflix dub kinda messed up some parts and overall i feel the og one is better and has more charm
well i dont really know about the english one as my first language is spanish but the spanish one is like that
but really i watched it sub for the most part

[keen rune]

I sent you a dm

[upbeat furnace]

hi

[static perch]

netflix dub is fine, its just less funny/silly as the original, it takes itself more seriously
