What is going on here

[long trail]

bruh 4chan thinks bbr will die right after release lmao

[noble pier]

Games will die without any marketing nor a community ready to play. Happened with Shatterline. 26k launch week, dwindled down to 1k players daily

BBR will probs pop off for the first few months and when new games start releasing people will focus their attention on those gsmes

[untold ether]

That happened because Shatterline was shit.

Terrible balance, huge netcode and cheater issues.

Tbh it’s my favorite gun so far but I’ve yet to unlock the HK419 and I’ve heard it’s insane

[glad token]

theres no right answer they all are good

[gusty oasis]

Oh yeah, it shoots about 3000fps and has hop up past 500 yards

It's gas powered. AEG is for losers.

[subtle aspen]

@terse badger so your notnallowed to have servers open when u want ? or your just abiding by what oki says

[terse badger]

I can open for testing whenever I want. But other people can only see the servers if I invite them in or if there's a playtest going.

[fluid nymph]

👀

[subtle aspen]

do u mind me asking how much that usually cost ?

[subtle aspen]

thats what im sayin bro got battlebits already

he dont even need ea

[fluid nymph]

His internet plan is rather cheap and unlimited, and he has solar energy, he also doesn't have to deal with regulations and shit, so it costs very little for him (aside from the actual initial hardware investment)

[subtle aspen]

he got it got it

im actually jealous

He's rich

@woeful rampart Hi, do you know about spells in tf2?

[woeful rampart]

yes, what's with them?

[worthy hollow]

Exorcisms are supposed to leave ghosts after a murder, right?

Pumpkin bombs work, but the exorcism doesn't show

[runic grove]

I remember this game 😛

[cunning nexus]

PSA:

I have no idea why but
Vampire Survivors is free on mobile
and everyone should go and play it cause its great and $5 on steam

[runic grove]

Out of that 40k kills, 35k were probably headshots.. lol I didn't attach the headshot tracker, by the time I got it, I already had 30k kills on it..

[worthy hollow]

My maximum is 8692

I know one person with that many kills, is it a law?

[runic grove]

No idea, looks like it's mostly robot kills.. So not actual players?.. Or is that on top of the robot kills..?

I stopped playing, as there was no competition, I mainly played Mountain Lab, and absolutely dominated on it.. I as a sniper, could hold the entire enemy team off, solo

I stopped, because I got bored, it was too easy

How much was it

[untold ether]

Uhhh
With keycaps and switches, somewhere around 200€.

[agile moth]

Looks quite nice

Very petite

[untold ether]

I still need a set of ceramic keycaps tho.

PBT isn't holding up to my sandpaper fingers.

Keys went glossy in a few months.

[agile moth]

😂😂

[untold ether]

I think I still have to replace my shift switch.

But I got spares. EZ hotswap

Gazzew Boba U4 Silents btw

Initially had some Zilent Aquas, terrible purchase.

Waste of time and money. They had pre-travel. 🤮

[fickle steeple]

You are sick

@agile moth you are still trying to make thocky keeb?

Reddit helped you?

[agile moth]

Yh imma do it later

[untold ether]

In many ways.

[fickle steeple]

40% is cursed

[untold ether]

Skill issue

[fickle steeple]

You are using it for gaming?

[untold ether]

Naturally

[fickle steeple]

[untold ether]

In some games, it's actually beneficial, because I have all keys from 1 to 0 in reach on my left hand, without going away from WASD.

Only downside is that I cannot hold space or use WASD in that moment (though I can keep holding it the input).

Point is, it works just fine, but certainly requires more precise control.

[fickle steeple]

@agile moth you are still going for tkl?

[untold ether]

In 99% of games it doesn't matter at all tho.

I prefer having my weapon selection on the mouse wheel.

Wheel up for primary, down for secondary.

[fickle steeple]

Smaller would be "cheaper" but if you like look of tkl

[untold ether]

So it doesn't interrupt my movement.

Given the market and all, I would not recommended trying what I did.

But I have it now and have no reason to re-learn regular keyboards.

[fickle steeple]

@agile moth i could help you finding your keeb

But Reddit would be better

They have more knowledge

@agile moth but using tactiles would be easier to make thocky keeb

[untold ether]

You wouldn't use anything else for a thocky one.

see you can just download an open source soundboard that doesnt support audio passthru through your mic normally
then move the app to AUX
and have it play though there by allowing voicemeeter to passthru AUX

I wouldnt even mind if it used the audio source since i dont really plan on using mic in game

Oh my god

One of my cats has gone full WOKE

[stone echo]

whats scary is the power of these earth quakes, just levels everything

[vernal thistle]

But i really didn't expect so many to die in turkey

Their buildings just seem sturdier

[stone echo]

poor places and bad buildings, bound to happen

[vernal thistle]

Some Syrians died as well

[stone echo]

high dens places will suffer so much

[vernal thistle]

I wonder whats syria like now

[stone echo]

its so far gone

[vernal thistle]

The capital of country Dhaka is the densest city in the world

[stone echo]

mm

[vernal thistle]

Is the war still going on? I mean are us soldiers still going there to kill terrorists

[stone echo]

u need tons of cheap and fast made buildings

I dont know, so hard to trust the news these days

[vernal thistle]

Syrian people are so smart its a shame their country is in shabbles

[stone echo]

yeah, parts of the world is a shit place to be in

[vernal thistle]

Iranian and iraqi citizens are very smart and nice people as well

I observed They are very very beautiful people as well

[stone echo]

I think most people are, most people just want to live a life in peace, but MOST of the time politics and religion wont let them

[vernal thistle]

Many of them have beautiful eyes with such a glow

Religion and politics were made for the betterment of people but people found ways to exploit them for their own benefits

[stone echo]

Life is to short to be a hateful focker, sad that people are willing to kill over words and ideas

Its all about control yeah

[vernal thistle]

Yea people don't understand how little sympathy it takes to get loved by the people and they listen to the person as well

A single ray of hope is enough all of them even if it might be false, crazy how that works

[stone echo]

Its crazy, mother nature do not care if we live or die

Its like them crazy yanks STILL living in tornado vally, 1 woman lost her house 4 times and she refuse to move

tornados just ripping up everything, 1 of her dogs flew like 2 states

[stone echo]

dont think i have a fav to ne honest

Kebab, steak, chicken all top tier for me

well anything BBQed

[vernal thistle]

I love meat but i can't have anything without some rice

[stone echo]

a mean curry is awesome

[vernal thistle]

Bro i wonder how many cats died because a lot of cat live in turkey

[stone echo]

haha

[vernal thistle]

Yes

[stone echo]

dont think to many, cats prob sensed it and dodged most of the buildings

[vernal thistle]

I wish

[stone echo]

things die, u can only do so much to be prepered

just look at the news of all those people out in the streets digging for people

those are the people u need to focus your news on but there is no money in people, only in objects and prime time

rich people offer prayers, the working man is on the street helping out, easy to see who the real heroes are

[olive oasis]

As much as I love cats, that's the last thing I'd think about when something like this happens, wtf @vernal thistle

[worldly carbon]

some value animals more than humans, some hate humans more than anything else

he just like me fr fr

[vernal thistle]

well i like cats and i showed sympathy for the people who died and after that i talked about cats, cause turkey is like a cat capital

[opaque ingot]

Once upon a time, in a small village nestled in the rolling hills of a verdant countryside, there lived a man named Larry. Larry was a kind and gentle soul, always ready with a warm smile for anyone who crossed his path. Despite his many friends and loving family, however, he felt as though something was missing in his life.

One day, as he was out for a walk in the countryside, Larry stumbled upon a young man named Cyan, who was sitting by a babbling brook and sketching in a journal. Cyan was different from anyone Larry had ever met. He was quiet and reserved, with an inner strength that was palpable even from a distance.

Despite their differences, Larry and Cyan struck up a conversation and found that they had much in common. They talked for hours about their hopes, dreams, and fears, and as the sun began to set, Larry knew that he had met someone special.

As the weeks and months went by, Larry and Cyan grew ever closer, spending time together and exploring the countryside. They bonded over their shared love of nature and their mutual appreciation for the simple joys of life.

One day, as they were walking through a meadow filled with wildflowers, Larry took Cyan's hand and looked into his eyes. "Cyan," he said, "I know that this might sound strange, but I have fallen in love with you. I cannot imagine my life without you in it."

Cyan's eyes lit up with a warm glow, and he squeezed Larry's hand. "Larry," he said, "I have fallen in love with you, too. You bring joy to my life in a way that no one else ever has."

From that moment on, Larry and Cyan were inseparable, building a life filled with love and happiness.

[naive trail]

we need to finish this

[urban stag]

when is the chapter coming out?

[cursive hare]

😳

[fresh raptor]

😳

[opaque ingot]

Once upon a time, Larry and Cyan were a happy couple in love. They met in college and fell in love quickly. They had many interests in common and supported each other through thick and thin. They dreamed of building a life together and started making plans for the future.

However, as time went by, they began to grow apart. Larry became more focused on his career, working long hours and neglecting their relationship. Cyan, on the other hand, wanted to start a family and wanted more time and attention from Larry. They started to argue more and more and the love they once had for each other began to fade.

One day, Larry came home from work and sat Cyan down for a serious conversation. He told Cyan that he didn't feel the same way about him anymore and that he wanted to end their relationship. Cyan was heartbroken. He couldn't believe that the love of his life didn't love him anymore. They both cried and talked for hours, but in the end, they both knew it was over.

Cyan moved out and they went their separate ways. It was a tough time for both of them as they had to adjust to life without each other. However, with time, they both started to heal. Larry realized that he had taken his relationship for granted and started to appreciate the love he had lost. Cyan found someone new who loved and appreciated him, and they started a new chapter in their lives.

Although their relationship didn't work out, Larry and Cyan still cherished the memories they had made together. They remained friends and sometimes talked about their time together with fondness. They both learned that sometimes, love just doesn't last, but they were grateful for the time they spent together and the lessons they learned.

After the breakup, Larry and Cyan went their separate ways and tried to move on with their lives. However, a few months later, Larry received a surprise call from Cyan. Cyan informed him that he had adopted a child and needed Larry's help with child support.

At first, Larry was shocked. He never thought that Cyan would have a child without him, especially since they had talked about starting a family together in the past. Larry felt like Cyan had betrayed him and he was furious. He felt that Cyan was using the child as leverage to get more money from him.

Larry decided to take legal action and sue Cyan for child support. He hired a lawyer and went to court, determined to get what he felt was rightfully his. The court case was a long and grueling process, with both sides presenting their arguments and evidence. Larry argued that Cyan had adopted the child without his consent and that he shouldn't have to pay child support. Cyan argued that the child was his responsibility and that he needed Larry's help to provide for the child's needs.

In the end, the court ruled in Cyan's favor. Larry was ordered to pay a substantial amount in child support, which he begrudgingly did. The experience left a bitter taste in his mouth and he struggled to move on from the pain and anger he felt towards Cyan.

Despite the outcome of the court case, Larry realized that the child was an innocent party and that they deserved to be taken care of. Slowly, he began to let go of his resentment towards Cyan and focused on being a positive presence in the child's life. Over time, he and Cyan were able to reconcile and put their differences aside for the sake of the child. They both learned that it was possible to co-parent and put their own feelings aside for the well-being of the child they both loved.

larry just mistakenly mixed puppy love with real love

[winged hedge]

do you guys think 100% free speech would be benefitial to society? meaning: yelling "there's a guy with a gun around the corner coming to kill us, RUN!" and yelling "FIRE, FIRE!" to deliberately alarm people AND deliberately insulting anyone for anything would be legal.

[cunning patio]

people would die. a popular person would say something false and horrible about someone else and a crazy would kill them

[winged hedge]

but I would argue that that happens now with no complete free speech

[cunning patio]

yes, but there are consequences for it

[winged hedge]

but who decides what constituates a lie or truth

[cunning patio]

how about evidence?

look at Alex Jones saying the families of Sandy Hook massacre victims were paid actors and it was all fake

[winged hedge]

morally despicable

[cunning patio]

truly vile

[winged hedge]

but illegal?

[cunning patio]

yes, he lost the court case...

[winged hedge]

ok

thx 4 letting me know, didnt know that

in my opinion he should be allowed to say that though

[cunning patio]

at the cost of all of the grieving families?

[winged hedge]

yes

[cunning patio]

it's not harmless

[winged hedge]

well is subjective harm no?

[cunning patio]

alex jones has a cult-like following

put yourself in their place

[winged hedge]

to me the meaning of words is given by the interpreter. limiting what can be uttered goes against anything i believe in.

[cunning patio]

if your child was killed violently, and you had people coming to your home because a crazy guy on the internet said it was all fake

harassing you for years

relentlessly

[winged hedge]

well that's harassment because they objectively come to your house and stalk you relentlesslyt

[cunning patio]

ok, but you can't expect people to be reasonable

[winged hedge]

i am only interested in the argument of should what you say be limited because of what oothers subjectively intepret into it

[cunning patio]

telling the stalkers / harassers the lie is just as bad

it's a misuse of power

[winged hedge]

yeah but your brain interpreting the words gives it meaning, no?

what if he makes fun of you in russian while you dont speak russian: offensive?

[cunning patio]

making fun of someone isn't illegal

[winged hedge]

in my country it sadly is depending on the subjective interpretation of those who hear it

(germany)

not addressing a police officer by his formal wording = 600 euro fine

sticking out a tounge at someone = 250 euro fine

[cunning patio]

well, in america, something has to meet a strict definition of slander

which is a false statement that leads to damaging a person's reputation

[winged hedge]

ok so it has to objectively be false: so like saying "person X molests children" while that's not the case

[cunning patio]

yes

[winged hedge]

then i understand why alex jones was scentenced.

and i agree with that judgment

[cunning patio]

i don't think that simply being offensive should be illegal

there are already social consequences for that

[winged hedge]

the problem is: who decides what is offensive.

it is a subjective question. it is like arguing about artists: who is better. they try to reason with absoluteness in a relative, subjective space (all my opinion)

here it's defined as a statement that has no intrinsic value to the point you're making, instead it being only uttered to lower the self-worth of the person who hears it

an example "you're a fat idiot" -> illegal

difficult to word it legally but here's my try: "to me you're consuming too much food thus you look overweight" <-- but even that might be taken as offense and, if offnense taken, be argued in front of a court.

[cunning patio]

as i said i don't think something like that should be illegal, but i feel like that is a strange thing to say without more context

if it's defined as a statement with no value to the point you're making

i guess slightly modify it so that there's a clear point

[winged hedge]

well, it also says that any words you say that are interpreted as "lowering the self-worth" it can be sanctioned

the problem is you cannot absolutely, objectively define offense

someone wishing someone else to get cancer: lowering self worth or not?

[cunning patio]

i'd have to see the strict definition, but it seems like there's a loophole with the word "instead"

[winged hedge]

i once called a politician ignorant -> 1200 euro fine

[fickle steeple]

Hey guys

[cunning patio]

as long as the statement has value and has a point it can also lower their self-worth it seems

hello

[fickle steeple]

That's fine in Poland

[winged hedge]

gotta move to poland

[cunning patio]

that just sounds like corruption without more context

[fickle steeple]

Ok if you insult Police yeah you get fines

[winged hedge]

when I talk about this with germans they ask me: "why would you want to insult someone" to the full free speech

[cunning patio]

you can prove that he's ignorant about something

they can't know everything, so it's true

[fickle steeple]

50€-1500€ fine

[winged hedge]

well ignorant is seen in the "common language" as someone who is dumb, stupid and below their abilities. so it was seen by the court as attacking his self-worth

[fickle steeple]

We have free speech due to our constitution

[winged hedge]

there's no free speech anywhere on the world sadly 😦

gotta go to the moon or mars

[fickle steeple]

If i call politician ignorant that's my opinion

So anyway

[winged hedge]

i agree with your statement, the courts in germany don't :*(

[fickle steeple]

Western eu Has skill issue

[winged hedge]

assault players with pp2k

[fickle steeple]

But if i harass someone yeah i can be punished @winged hedge

[winged hedge]

again: someone might be harassed by simply calling them by their first and not last name

it's a dangerous path to take limiting the speech based on subjective feelings

[fickle steeple]

That's not a harassment

[winged hedge]

it is for some.

[fickle steeple]

Person is just stupid

[winged hedge]

if a court agrees, most likely not but lets look 50 years in the future and the opinion might've changed due to constantly living with and accepting it

[fickle steeple]

And that statement is ridiculous

[winged hedge]

i hope it is

[fickle steeple]

Only minus i have in my house is. No fiber internet

I offered companies to pay for everything

[winged hedge]

same. as a last statement: due to this kind of ruling you slowly lose the ability to speak critically of those you dislike, leading you to a society of blind positivity which is just as bad as the blind hate of fascism

[fickle steeple]

Internet is toxic

[cunning patio]

this makes a lot of sense, look at what happened to video games

not long ago people laughed at microtransactions

things can change quickly, 50 years is probably too long

[winged hedge]

i remember when i laughed about world of warcraft's monthly pay-to-play model

[cunning patio]

i can't think of a gaming company more evil than blizzard

[winged hedge]

activision-blizzard*

[cunning patio]

sigh...

[winged hedge]

but EA is right up there with them

i don't even want to know what money the basketball and football games pull in with their ultimate packs in the united states

[cunning patio]

blizzard just personally affected me, i grew up on Starcraft, Diablo 1 / 2, Warcraft 3

[winged hedge]

how did you find to starcraft? older brother?

[cunning patio]

iirc my neighbor had it

[winged hedge]

funny how those little things define quite a big part of your future huh

the boyfriend of my aunt gave me a trance-techno CD when I was 7 and so I was hooked on EDM

[slate cradle]

I have an incredibly important message. I dont speak in this server, so im perfectly fine if i get removed from it. Its not a big deal. But- i feel as though the message needs to be shared.

I dont exactly know who to share this to, so im just gonna say it in general. Im not gonna post a link or anything, but-

I found a movie with an incredibly deep and thought provoking message. A movie that goes into certain aspects of depression and depravity that most other movies dont even try to. A movie that explains exactly what is wrong with our schooling system here in america, and how we should have more of a focus on mental health and and other things we as humans need.

The movie is called Detachment. Directed by Tony Kay.

CW: ||Mentions of self harm, suicide, selling of self, and other depressing topics.||
It may be an important message in the movie, but it is not for everyone. I could barely get through it.

And with this, i want you all to know one thing. If you need someone to talk to. Please. Dont be afraid to ask. Its okay to be weak every once in awhile. Its okay to be you.

If you really need someone to speak to, and dont know who to go to

i am here for you. Someone is there for you.

Any of y'all motorcycle people? I have a question about a bike

[cyan parcel]

i love them so what you need to ask

[glad crane]

What do you think about the Kawasaki Versys 650? I found a super clean 2014 with low miles for a good price and I want to know if it would be a suitable first bike that someone could keep for a while and not get bored. I am a new street rider but have been playing in the dirt my whole life

[cyan parcel]

verys is an touring bike

from the looks you probly wont get back pain from using it

[glad crane]

It is a pretty upright motorcycle with relaxed ergonomics, taller seat height with a higher center of gravity

[cyan parcel]

il say its pretty good for daily use

great for tourings

maybe great for a first bike

my first bike was an 125 cc trail bike soo i cant say much about high cc bikes

[glad crane]

Mine was a 1972 Honda CB350 lol, this is as big as I've gone. I think it is a good deal, I just wasn't sure if anyone here owns this bike and could tell me what they thought

can i ask bro's anti cheat is EAC and mine is EOS??

i refuse to elaborate

[sick harness]

what happend

[cunning patio]

^

[sick harness]

that looks like your gpu quit

[swift flint]

so what about the error of anti cheat not running with the game

[untold ether]

Simply running the EAC install/repair is probably gonna fix that, most of the time.

[swift flint]

how

[untold ether]

You launch the game and select the 2nd option.

You might have to set this in properties again.

But if you haven't messed with it, just do this.

[swift flint]

I did it but it didn't work

[ashen swallow]

[vernal thistle]

whoever speaks first/whoever acts better/whoever the people like better

[vernal thistle]

what you say should have consequences(they also have freedom of speech) but nowadays people just shit over others for just innocent thoughts and opinions

people shouldn't get punched for sharing their opinions but whoever decides to vilify the person without conducting a civil conversation FOR sharing opinions should absolutely get punched in both the face and the gut for that

[prisma ravine]

Or someone stronger than you... 😏 If a fighter want to call you Charlotte well... Your name is now Charlotte

[vernal thistle]

well you don't play fair then i don't care what the law says but if someone stronger than me tries to bully me i will just smack his head with a rod

if he dies thats just part of the process

he should've known better

[winged hedge]

It’s why i love animals: they don’t hold grudges, don’t judge you but instead take you for who you are

[prisma ravine]

And they taste better... Wait...

[winged hedge]

😂

[vernal thistle]

the thing about bullies is they punch you but they don't have the balls to go the extreme path but you don't have to use his methods you CAN take the extreme path

[untold ether]

Or what you are.

To some animals, certainly food.

[winged hedge]

If I ever get into a situation where I become a wild animal’s lunch and dinner so be it: life is life

[untold ether]

And death is death.

[prisma ravine]

Meanwhile... Cat can bully anyone and still get food

[cyan parcel]

pew pew

[untold ether]

Joke's on the cat: Not if I am the owner.

[winged hedge]

cat’s cannot comprehend the idea of bullying I think

[vernal thistle]

i don't get it if people who are bullied are stupid enough to grab a gun and kill the a bunch of innocent people why not JUST take the bullies down i guess they think of the bystanders are also part of the bullies

[vernal thistle]

you should see how a cat plays with its pray its kinda bullying

[winged hedge]

well mislead ideas and weak character lead to people doing really dumb shit 😦

[vernal thistle]

i had a stray cat

[untold ether]

🙏

[untold ether]

Either mental breakdown or they're just dumb.

[vernal thistle]

some people just don't deserve 2nd chances an bullies are one of em but you can really judge once you stay with them to see if they deserve a chance or not

[untold ether]

I simply beat up anyone who bullied me.

[vernal thistle]

they just stop giving a shit actually

[untold ether]

Didn't matter how many or how much older they were.

[vernal thistle]

as long as they know you can fight back they will back of

[untold ether]

You win by default if you're stubborn enough.

[vernal thistle]

or you have the rod from the construction place

or a bat

[untold ether]

Last guy who tried ending up with a crooked nose that he kept up to this day. Never dared to approach me again.

Loser bled over the whole campus and he got the blame for all of it.

[vernal thistle]

i actually never got bullied because i always had a rather good relationship with the people around me thats why i don't think people can bully me that easily

[untold ether]

I don't get along with the stupid, so I had many enemies.

But they're dumber and weaker, so that was easy to solve.

[vernal thistle]

well making the stupid turn into a decent guy is actually a fun process

once they benefit from you they are forever greatful

[untold ether]

Shame that doesn't work on the internet. Here you just get banned or blocked. 😭

[vernal thistle]

i am pretty stupid

[untold ether]

Someone who can say that cannot be stupid. 🫡

At least not in the way that truly makes on stupid.

[vernal thistle]

i stopped arguing with stupid people on the internet for a while now its just pointless

[untold ether]

99% of all arguments on the we are just pointless anyway.
It is but a way to kill time.

[vernal thistle]

even stupid people know that trick so they say are stupid to not get called stupid

[vernal thistle]

yes

[untold ether]

But that's smart. 😄

[vernal thistle]

i guess

how to go to the next tier

i am currently tier 1

[untold ether]

[vernal thistle]

but it does feel pretty good sometimes....

[winged hedge]

As Plato put it: people hate being made aware of the truth.

[untold ether]

Nowadays you get perm banned for literally just calling someone a boomer.

So it just feels dumb.

[winged hedge]

I get called zoomer kekw

[vernal thistle]

i get overconfident and feel not stupid when i see people arguing on the internet so i try to not engage in arguments in the internet

[untold ether]

I mean, for real.

[winged hedge]

Arguing with an idiot makes two.

[vernal thistle]

"Was it worth it?"

[prisma ravine]

No, engage to make it kinda worse, then, leave

[untold ether]

Every instant spent on Steam communities is an instant wasted. So no.

But boredom is a hard drug.

[winged hedge]

But yeah this, in my opinion and perceived reality, californian SJW blind positivity movement is spreading systematically across the globe and I hate it

[untold ether]

This one was also good.

That's literally all I wrote.

[vernal thistle]

can a platform be sued for limiting someones freedom of speech?

[untold ether]

Just a comment under the announcement of a Stream that I literally cannot understand.

[untold ether]

no

[winged hedge]

Not steam

Government platform yes

[untold ether]

This sorta law doesn't apply to private businesses.

[prisma ravine]

In the future, worldwar 36 will start with a fart

[untold ether]

Only exception would be comments of political figures.

[vernal thistle]

Some people might think "Well its hate speech so if it is limited its more better than worse" But that is utter bullcrap thats how freedom of speech gets limited

[winged hedge]

I’m pretty sure steam, like Twitter, can ban even the president of the USA and no one can do a thing

[untold ether]

I mean, they technically did.

But you're certainly not making friends by banning the president of the nation you reside in.

[winged hedge]

And Elon musk paid 40 billion to unban trump 😅😂💀

[vernal thistle]

first it was actually hate speech now its just innocents words and opinions which are converted as hatespeech and banned

it will get worse

[untold ether]

"hate speech" is just a funny term that people throw around to cope.

[vernal thistle]

yea

[untold ether]

It meas nothing whatsoever.

[vernal thistle]

its the internet you can ignore it

[untold ether]

Some people classify mere disagreement in the form of "no" as hate speech.

[vernal thistle]

its not like their opinions even matter because of the amount of illogical emotion filled words they spew so why take action against it?

[winged hedge]

Exactly

[cyan parcel]

making twitter api paid 😔

[winged hedge]

Getting offended only gives meaning to the one saying words to you, validating him.

[untold ether]

Using Twitter is a mistake in the first place anyway.

[vernal thistle]

unless it affects your real life it doesn't matter and if it does affect you, you can call the cops

[untold ether]

Never really used it, never missed it.

[vernal thistle]

i never used twitter

[untold ether]

I feel like I lost less brain cells not using it.

[vernal thistle]

your growing some actually

[winged hedge]

Never had a Twitter never needed it anyway

[untold ether]

Yeah, people are just stupid sensitive nowadays.

[vernal thistle]

twitter is for masochistic sadists

[untold ether]

Happens when you grow up in a time of peace.

[winged hedge]

Twitter is Reddit on fairy dust

[vernal thistle]

or better...get a gun

[untold ether]

A time where your only worry is whether or not your colleagues like you.

Or what you'll have for breakfast.

The less legit worries we have, the more we worry about trivial garbage.

[vernal thistle]

actually, peace attracts war and we are in the most peaceful period of history so brace yourselves

[winged hedge]

Go Primal or what was it? 🤣💀

[untold ether]

I mean, current events...

I'll just die inside when I see people go on the streets to try and "protest war away".

🗿

[vernal thistle]

its a Cycle of "I want peace----i am peaceful----am bored----*does stupid stuff----*Then comes the fuckening-----I want peace"

[untold ether]

Or protest for energy prices to lower.
By...driving around in large convoys. ???

[prisma ravine]

When the kid will ask grandma how the ww3 started.... With a baloon

[vernal thistle]

protests are just a hassle

[untold ether]

Yeah lets increase demand to decrease pricing, what could possibly go wrong

[winged hedge]

Life is relative. You always need to be reminded of both extremes of the spectrum to recalibrate your bearings. Modern life actively tries to bedazzle and distract you from that

[untold ether]

Reason I never attended one and never will. Waste of time and half of them are a joke.

[vernal thistle]

dude we are literally producing more than enough food for every human being on earth but there is still starvation so it means we will never go to state of forever peace

[untold ether]

I'll just sit here and have meaningless convos until I actually have to fight for my life. 🗿

[untold ether]

Shipping is too expensive, can't share, sorry.

[vernal thistle]

Not your fault we only do stuff seriously when push comes to shove its the way of life but discipline can change it oh btw its categorized as abuse now and people are accepting undisciplined people and others who are actually disciplined? they are being hated for being BETTER than everybody else

[untold ether]

I lack the discipline to even really live half the time anyway.

[vernal thistle]

same

[untold ether]

Just the "perks" of having nothing that actually makes you want to live.

[vernal thistle]

i am now just mentally exhausted and i don't have any cause i can think of to live for actually except for the purpose of trying to provide for my family and i am barely 17

Ambitions,passion,love for a certain career? i don't have any of that

[untold ether]

I am approaching 30 and couldn't even think of bringing up the energy to provide for others. 🗿

[vernal thistle]

i am as lost as boat on in the middle of the ocean

[winged hedge]

seriously, give it 5-10

years

[untold ether]

For it to get worse?

[winged hedge]

nah to "find yourself"

[vernal thistle]

its funny cause the "aim of life" actually told that an aimless person is like a boat in the middle of the ocean to nowhere to go

[untold ether]

Sure didn't work for me.

[winged hedge]

how do you expect to know what you want if you've done like 0.000001% of what the world has to offer? go do things and most impoortant make as many mistakes as possible

[untold ether]

My philosophy makes it all irrelevant anyway.
I just live for the moment.

[vernal thistle]

i just want something great and honorable to live for heck most teenagers are going through this problem

[vernal thistle]

not the best philosphy tho

[untold ether]

Whether you accomplish everything or nothing makes no difference in the end. Death makes everything equal.

[winged hedge]

most people live for their addiction

[winged hedge]

study lucid dreaming. there might be more to life than what we know.

[vernal thistle]

that's the thing... it does make a difference it changes your whole life

[untold ether]

Life itself doesn't mean much to me, that's what I am saying.

[vernal thistle]

your not alone man...

[winged hedge]

understandable

[untold ether]

It just starts and ends, and the timespan itself is trivial in the face of time.

[vernal thistle]

its just a hassle

[prisma ravine]

Or muchroom 🤷‍♂️

[untold ether]

No matter how skilled or rich you become, you're still subject to the same limits.

[winged hedge]

so best to enjoy the ride while you're conscious, right? :3

you'll have eternity to be "dead"

[untold ether]

Ideally
But once death kicks in, no amount of joy will change anything about it. It'll be the same.

[vernal thistle]

not really when your skilled and rich your valuable and valuable things are loved by people and you are also a person so it does feel better

[untold ether]

Whether you suffered for your entire life or not, you'll feel and be nothing past that point.

It's not really a concept that's easy to imagine, nor does it do anything but harm...so >99% of people don't think about it this way.

But I had too much time to think. 🗿

[winged hedge]

yes, we are nothing but mere momentary linearizations of probabilistic energy waves oscillating due to the exchange of momentum

[vernal thistle]

dude you should try to start a business or use other methods to earn good money and get fit and stuff then marry a kind,caring girl with big tits elegance and live a good life

i mean your 30 whats the worst that can happen

[untold ether]

It feels better while you are alive.

[winged hedge]

don't marry because it's the social norm

[vernal thistle]

you wanna know how to feel alive? Near death experience

[untold ether]

You can build up whole lineages and even those will perish eventually. And it'll be nothing but a momentary instant in the face of time.

Would be slightly more interesting if we at least had immortality. But then this very concept makes living meaningless for other reasons. 🗿

[untold ether]

All that paperwork is too much hassle for me. Never

I am a management catastrophe.

[winged hedge]

so: lately in my lucid dreams i've begun to write things down IN THE DREAM, trying to create a constant world as the one we are in now. what if you find the "holy grail" that shows that the "dream world" is persistent after all?

[vernal thistle]

having a wife with huge tits a caring heart who will always stay by your side to comfort you (not those girls who think they are hot stuff) and be with you does feel pretty good to imagine i mean you decide after experiencing it.... marriage is beautiful people just vilify it to sound modern now

[winged hedge]

honestly intelligence arouse because someone started to write things down that are "known" to them, crearting persistence

[untold ether]

I don't believe in that.
The brain is all we are. Once its physical body is deteriorated, we are gone as if we had never existed in the first place.

A black void that you can't even imagine, because there's nothing to imagine it with anymore.

[winged hedge]

yea, the concept of nothingness is one dimension above us

[vernal thistle]

i actually had a dream after the turkey earth quake where my building was falling down because of a earthquake and me and my family were rushing the down the stairs to get out but it just kept on going and one by one everyone was "lost"

was pretty knarly

[untold ether]

Yeah, it's simply an unfathomable nothingness. Because you no longer exist to imagine it.

[winged hedge]

:/ that means the earth quake and its casualties really affected you deeply.

[untold ether]

It's like trying to paint a picture without a brush and color.

[winged hedge]

even describing nothing is impossible since you always need something to exist in our frame of reference

[untold ether]

I constantly dream about stuff from the past. It's pretty random.

[untold ether]

Exactly

[vernal thistle]

idk man the only reason i think i exist now is because of my family and i can't think of anything else to live for

[untold ether]

Even the concept of "nothing" is more than truly nothing.

[winged hedge]

write your dreams down, find your dream sign. for me it is a red ball that randomly appears bouncing around. when i see it, i know i'm dreaming.

[vernal thistle]

I guess we all need to experience A near death experience to feel alive again

[untold ether]

I have no such thing. My dreams are insanely realistic in the first place. Fucks with my memory at times.

[winged hedge]

hehe yeah .. did i dream that or did that happen? 👀

[untold ether]

Yeah lol

It usually uses real life locations and people as reference.

[vernal thistle]

you only learn about the value of something not only when you lose but when you are at the point of losing it so when you feel like your gonna die your actually going to value life more thats what i think

[untold ether]

Idk, might be just reflecting on past memories or worries.

[untold ether]

So far all the things I've truly lost never felt like that to me.
More of a "I am finally done with it".

[vernal thistle]

damn bro we actually feel like a group therapy session thing

[untold ether]

😄

[vernal thistle]

pretty cringe

[untold ether]

A little

[winged hedge]

i almost died once - as a kid i playfully ran away from my parents into a busy street right in front of an oncoming 18-wheeler only for it to stop in time - got spanked really really hard for that.

[vernal thistle]

seems "fun"

[untold ether]

Shit can happen anytime, yeah.

God knows how many people are not here and chatting with us right now because they died to some car or whatever.

[untold ether]

It's all up to luck really.

[vernal thistle]

shit i might die some time and you guys probably won't even know it

if i am inactive for more than a month think i am dead

[winged hedge]

the problem with losing a life is you're losing a library of knowledge.

[untold ether]

Or you simply lost interest.

[untold ether]

But not all knowledge is equally useful.

[vernal thistle]

everyone knows life is precious but nobody quite understands it

[untold ether]

Lets just say you might have lost potential.

[winged hedge]

might even be benefitial that some die .. don't understand me wrong pls

[vernal thistle]

i actually am confused on how capable i am... am i capable enough to do this? am i being overconfident thinking i can do this?

[untold ether]

Precious, yet taken for granted. Because we're literally nothing without it, and yet we have it by default.

[winged hedge]

famous quote: fake it til you make it

[vernal thistle]

what does it mean?

[untold ether]

I just assume I can do nothing but get mad when I fail.

The worst of both worlds.

🗿

[vernal thistle]

i have the mastered the art of not expecting something so much that i don't even expect myself to be able to do things untill i do it

[winged hedge]

it means that when you begin doing a task you're a novice, yet you must muster the courage to tell yourself you're adept enough to do it even though you think you're lying to yourself. at some point your knowledge has grown so much that you become a master at that task: you have faked it in the beginning to have made it in the end.

[vernal thistle]

feels like lying to myself

does it work tho?

[winged hedge]

it's how you learn.

[vernal thistle]

i'll get into a college

holyshit i said it but i know for a fact i won't

just feels like scamming

[untold ether]

In the end, mastering something is nothing but a process of engraving patterns into you.

[winged hedge]

well there's pro and contra to any path you take. college is just one path.

[untold ether]

Take Dark Souls no hit speedruns for example.

[vernal thistle]

for now its the only one for me but i don't think i am capable enough to get into one

[untold ether]

Yeah, seems impressive. But literally anyone could do it with enough time and dedication.

[vernal thistle]

i got 2 months ;-;

[untold ether]

Because you just learn to perfectly repeat what's already there.

[winged hedge]

we're living in a time where having excess amount of time is seen as ... normal? and wasting it is our favorite past time x)

[untold ether]

That's what technology does.

[vernal thistle]

we take it for granted

[untold ether]

Less worrying about the next harvest, more worrying about your KDR in BBR.

[winged hedge]

2.5 as of right now for me afaik

[untold ether]

🗿

[winged hedge]

[untold ether]

But yeah, given how weak we are in the face of the world, using our intelligence to trivialize our physical bodies made sense.
Just let machines do the heavy lifting.

[winged hedge]

i think your problem @untold ether is you're too intelligent for your own good. instead of doing things you see through them right to the end. so you already know what the outcome will be, thus you wonder why you should even begin doing it.

[untold ether]

I think I heard that before. 🗿

[vernal thistle]

ignorance is bliss so take it for what it is not what you think it can be

[untold ether]

Yet I waste my time on idiotic arguments on forums and get banned eventually.

Well, if I didn't waste my time on pretty crap, I'd be bored.

[winged hedge]

it's entertaining at the least

it's fun to converse with you ❤️

[vernal thistle]

story of my life

instead i would say i would be pretty successful

[untold ether]

Sometimes I wish I could be like the average person. Just go to work, use Facebook and all that crap with no worry for my own data...

It would be so much less stressful.

[untold ether]

I don't hear that one a lot.

[winged hedge]

the worst thing of it all: we all know the steps necessary to get exactly what we want, yet we lie to ourselves to stay happy. it's a weird world out there.

[vernal thistle]

i see some of my friends not studying but wasting time on stupid things without a care in the world and enjoying life... and here i am the average joe who knows enough to be serious but not serious or smart enough to actually succeed

[untold ether]

But yeah, for most of the time I am more concerned as to how to just outlive my time while not being bored to death and using as few resources as comfortably possible (e.g. energy efficiency is important to me, so I undervolt etc).

[winged hedge]

problem with school teachers is they really cannot convey the why well enough. so why should students be interested.

[vernal thistle]

the only thing i want to be is not a burden to my family but i am very stupid and selfish to work hard enough for it

[winged hedge]

it is a way to live.

[untold ether]

School was just a huge drag.
Forced to be in a room with people you don't want to be with.
Forced to learn stuff you never need.

Got through the whole thing without ever doing my homework or really learning what I was supposed to. But finished it fully regardless, so whatever.

[vernal thistle]

if there was a way to make my family rich and not exist i would probably choose it

[winged hedge]

well see ... integrals let you "look" into the past. derivatives into the future. there's a need for anything, it just needs to be conveyed to you WHY that need exists.

[untold ether]

So many failing grades for homework I never done...yet I succeeded anyway. Petty system.

[untold ether]

Yeah, they never do that.

I cannot, and don't want to, learn something without a practical reason why I should.

[vernal thistle]

people should be able to practically use the things they learn to be interested in them instead of just learning and forgetting them after a stupid exam

[untold ether]

Instead I teach myself how stuff like fridges work.

[vernal thistle]

thats useful

[untold ether]

Because this way I can use them efficiently.

[winged hedge]

modern school curriculum's are made for the lowest common denominator, not for furthering personal interests.

[untold ether]

Daily life shit that people don't concern themselves with, but it saves you a lot of energy over the years.

[untold ether]

Yeah

But on the bright side, that allowed me to finish all grades without even trying.

[winged hedge]

yeah true, this is where the "cast-system" comes into play

i'd argue your parents and family are quite intelligent @untold ether

[untold ether]

Ehhhhh 🗿

[winged hedge]

same with @vernal thistle

[untold ether]

I am very much the outlier in our family.

[winged hedge]

idk, did you ever have such a deep talk with one of them?

[vernal thistle]

never

[winged hedge]

not trying to invade personal space

[untold ether]

No, they're not on that level. Not even remotely.

[vernal thistle]

and never want to

[winged hedge]

same.

[vernal thistle]

i like my family but we don't say that we act on it

[untold ether]

My youngest sister somewhat understood it. But she's relatively incapable otherwise.

[vernal thistle]

even saying it feels weird

[winged hedge]

😢

[untold ether]

Without me, she couldn't even set up her PC at all.

🗿

And she's like me, using that thing >12h a day.

[winged hedge]

hehe because she has no interest in understanding it because the WHY is missing: you'll do it for her anyway, right?

[untold ether]

I already built my own when I was younger than that.

[vernal thistle]

i want someone close to me like really close who knows everything but except god i can't think of anyone else and i can't really see god so it doesn't really work that well for me

[untold ether]

To some degree.

[winged hedge]

i have 0 clue about makeup because i find no reason to even think about it, u know

[untold ether]

I still force her to figure out some things on her own or be SoL.

But I give hints.

[vernal thistle]

but i don't think i can live with myself knowing that someone else knows everything i did except god

[untold ether]

I get the idea and principle behind it etc.
But I have no use for the thing itself.

[vernal thistle]

my lifes a mess i want control over it

[winged hedge]

adulthood will manage that for you

[untold ether]

My first step was to drop the idea that I actually need "control" over it.
Or rather, redefine what "control" really means.

[vernal thistle]

the more i think the more messy it gets

[winged hedge]

but i doubt your life is a mess

[untold ether]

As long as I have a source of money and can manage my household myself, I am in control.

[vernal thistle]

haha you have no idea....

[winged hedge]

😦

[winged hedge]

may it improve swiftly

[untold ether]

Because if you really think about it, even if you have a stable income, are rich even...you're never truly in control.
You're always subject to the system.

[vernal thistle]

although for me its quite normal because thats how i always lived it...but idk

for others

[untold ether]

Your wealth is worthless without goods and people backing it up.

[winged hedge]

well, if you buy an island that is actually self sustaining you're setup for life

[untold ether]

The system could collapse over night. It's just unlikely.

[vernal thistle]

wealth is the only thing which truly allows you to be free and gain freedom tho otherwise freedom is just for name

[untold ether]

Yeah, until someone stronger comes along and takes it away from you.

Your "control" only works as far as the control of the system above it works.

[vernal thistle]

we need the system for that not to happen but we can't really live with it

[winged hedge]

yes, this is pure, unadulterated nature

[untold ether]

But again, that's just me thinking to the absolute end of it.

Besides a meteor simply turning it into a crater.

[winged hedge]

all i can say is we do not have the answers to our questions yet.

[vernal thistle]

if we did we wouldn't be discussing them

[untold ether]

Indeed

[vernal thistle]

we wouldn't be like 'This' either

[winged hedge]

i find indulging one's self in other cultures, be it an online one on discord or a physical one in a foreign country, gives you the ability to find them.

[vernal thistle]

i guess

[prisma ravine]

Leak: we're in a matrix

[vernal thistle]

and andrew tate is leo lol

[winged hedge]

i want to truly believe this and am actively searching for the "holy grail" that proves it

[vernal thistle]

yOu HeF tU VElibe!

[vernal thistle]

the thing is your afraid that its not and all your hard work goes to naught so you can't truly believe

[winged hedge]

yes, self doubt is a problem.

[vernal thistle]

We people just don't have anything truly reliable to believe in

[prisma ravine]

Easy, loot at all SJW or thing like that.... The true Mother nature cannot created that

[winged hedge]

what? i don't follow.
