why would i want to lose the blessing of sight

Background doesn't matter. Text does. ||Go dark mode||

forest basalt
#

ok how do nfts effect the enviroment, isn't it just a line of code?

simple owl
#

Crypto currency

forest basalt
#

but how does crypto affect the enviroment

simple owl
#

in the way you gather crypto by yourself

#

using GPUs, power supplies and what not

#

the cryptocurrency mining is the worst thing I've seen in the past couple of years

#

it's seriously wasting ton of energy just to get you those sweet sweet numbers on a screen

forest basalt
#

ah

upbeat scroll
#

the way they guarantee the uniqueness is by making the algorithm really really hard

#

which costs electricity, which means more coal burnd

proud flicker
#

allegedly crypto used more power than the country of argentina last year

forest basalt
#

so crypto is just a line of code that somehow has value attached to it wasting a ton of power to end up in little to no profit?

proud flicker
#

so money is just a piece of paper that somehow has value attached to it wasting a ton of tree?

proud flicker
#

and crypto does bring about profit, otherwise people woulnd't do it

#

the gist of it is, the idea, as usual, is sound

#

but human are wont to make a good idea bad

mild pelican
#

imagine if you could make common money by yourself

#

without getting in the jail

#

imagine the amount of trees instantly being chopped down by people

forest basalt
#

but back in ye olden days of economy we had materials and resources backing that currency, unless my economics class lied. but the way i see it is that nothing is backing cryptocurrency, because someone convinced someone there was value to it now it magically has value.

proud flicker
forest basalt
#

huh

#

me is what

proud flicker
#

Modern monetary system is complicated

mild pelican
#

i heard that the idea was algorithms of a cryptocurrency can actually be repurposed as calculations for other means

forest basalt
proud flicker
#

some currency are backed by resources and material, commonly gold or silver

mild pelican
#

so, everything people's 3090s were working on, is not in vain

proud flicker
#

but others are back by literally nothing but the creditability of the government

#

those are called fiat money

hexed hollow
#

Yeah, unfortunately with crypto multi million/billion dollar corps have gotten onto the crypto hype so they have massive crypto farms

dusty rover
#

i remember learning that most or all currency used to be compared to the gold standard, but now is compared to the US dollar. could be wrong though

proud flicker
#

the dollar is in fact fiat, it's just the US government guaranteeing it has value

#

as for crypto, im fiarly sure it's also fiat, but just not centralized

forest basalt
dusty rover
#

usd used to be measured to the gold stamdard, but i don’t think it is anymore?

proud flicker
#

Correct

mild pelican
#

i remember how people thought just like that, back in the day around 2014 or so, how cryptocurrency worths nothing, and even thieves were squeamish

proud flicker
#

The dollar was silver backed, then gold backed, then fiat

mild pelican
#

guy bought a pizza for 20000 bitcoins

#

idk how does he feel now

proud flicker
#

There was a Starcraft tournament where
1st place gets $100
2nd plave gets $50
3rd place gets 150 bitcoins or something like that

#

Lmao

forest basalt
#

but is crypto bad? that's my main question.

dusty rover
#

from what i can tell, the value of cryptocurrency is partly that it’s unattached to a bank or government

forest basalt
#

i want share meme that only works if crypto is bad.

mild pelican
#

i think it's neither good or bad

hexed hollow
#

Yes and no, it's an incredibly nuanced thing

proud flicker
forest basalt
#

it's all circumstantial

hexed hollow
#

From an environmental sustainability standpoint, yes crypto right now ain't particularly good due to how the energy is sourced

#

But having a decentralised form of currency ain't a bad thing

forest basalt
proud flicker
#

Yeah

mild pelican
#

with current ways of producing power, internet is also a bad thing

#

and microwaves, and fridges

forest basalt
mild pelican
#

and even light.. have you ever thought about the amount of light escaping earth just to never come back?

forest basalt
proud flicker
#

I really feel like these kind of questions ultimately leads to two different world view.
Are we good people who do bad things or bad people who do good things?

forest basalt
#

the former

#

wait no

#

the latter

#

wait no

dusty rover
#

a simplistic question that has an incredibly complicated answer

simple owl
#

the forever unanswered question

hexed hollow
#

Both and everything in between

proud flicker
#

why aren't they wearing pants

bronze lintel
dusty rover
#

essentially the same question as before combined with the question of what we percieve to be good vs evil

#

adding another layer of complexity to an already loaded question

bronze lintel
fair sun
#

are we talking abt moralism

dusty rover
#

honestly i’m not sure. shadeembarassed

orchid dragon
fair sun
#

i guess the best way to go over the morality of technology advancement is our conscience about the pro and cons of it all: did technology ease your life and bears heavy burden for future generations, or does it allows society to thrive of and evolve in various standpoints and advances human civilization to a point that these downsides can be overcame entirely

#

NEW GLASSES!!!

#

i can see in 4k now

#

it’s amazing

proud flicker
#

nice. i know that feeling

dusty rover
#

didn’t realize how much worse my vision has gotten in the last couple of years

#

until i got my new glasses

#

everything is so sharp that its painful

dawn gust
#

New glasses are cool

fair sun
#

Until it doesn't

dawn gust
#

Glasses can last a long time if you're careful with em

forest basalt
#

had my pair for the past 4 years. i also haven't gotten my prescription checked in 4 years.

dawn gust
#

Wew

dusty rover
#

my old glasses were intended to give me 20/30 vision. in the last few months i realized that they weren’t doing that anymore

#

didn’t bother to visit the doctor until i realized i was squinting at everything

blissful charm
#

oh it was the same when i got my new glasses

#

like everything is so crisp and clear it's unbelievable

dusty rover
#

lol i’ve been looking around the kitchen and family room going “i can see the microwave clock” “i can read the guide” :)

blissful charm
#

im glad you can do that now!

bronze lintel
#

I'm a bit proud of my eyes. I'm the only one in my fam that doesn't wear glasses. squirtnya

blissful charm
#

i was the same way too and then i tried on my friend's glasses once and realized i needed glasses

bronze lintel
#

o no

plucky elbow
#

good morning ^^

bronze lintel
#

Morn

quiet lake
#

I got new glasses last month and my prescription hadn't changed but I'd had the last pair for more than a few years and they were really scratched up and battered

#

so I got a similar "everything's so detailed!" whoa moment

forest basalt
#

i have an app that i want to delete but it says that it can't find the file location, what do i do for effective deletion

#

it's not an app it's just a shortcut with no data

simple owl
#

you can nuke it from CMD

forest basalt
#

what

#

how do i do that? i can open command but anything in there is out of my computer knowledge

mild pelican
#

what OS is it?

forest basalt
#

windows 10

mild pelican
#

if windows, have you tried deleting it via programs and features in control panel?

forest basalt
#

no

#

how do i do that

simple owl
#

Can you rephrase what you want to do again?

#

I'm having a bit of difficulty on my part

forest basalt
#

shortcut with no data is on my desktop and my ocd wants to get rid of it

simple owl
#

and you can't delete it

forest basalt
#

when i click delete it says "cannot find file location"

forest basalt
simple owl
#

okay I need you now to open cmd

forest basalt
#

yes

simple owl
#

type "cd" (without quotation marks) and then the path to the file

#

so in this example it'll be

forest basalt
#

what do you mean path to the file

simple owl
#

cd C:\Users\ ( yourname)\Desktop

forest basalt
#

cool

#

is there a space in between cd and file location

simple owl
#

yes

forest basalt
#

i'm in

#

i think

simple owl
#

now do this:
del /f (the name of the file you want to delete)

#

can you screenshot for me before you press enter?

forest basalt
#

mahalo

#

Is there any streamer that could give me a hand setting up Streamlabs OBS? I cannot find a good tutorial

chilly briar
#

setting up is vague, what do you need help with specifically?

vital spruce
chilly briar
#

so you want only the game audio and not the general desktop audio which would include discord?

limber walrus
#

Mm, mic audio on it's own is pretty easy, that should be built in as a separate audio channel iirc

#

I'm not familiar with the streaming side though, just recording, so there may be some differences

proud flicker
#

You will need Voicemeeter for this one and it is not the most intuitive thing in the world

#

But it's a price you have to pay. Good luck!

Yes, please! Thanks!

Jesus how long it will take to make a port to ps4? I want to play this game

tranquil bay
#

@lucid sluice hi friend, please realize porting for the team is hard work.

via #hades-faq

Will Hades ever come to other platforms?
We launched v1.0 of Hades only on Nintendo Switch, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. We'll be considering opportunities to bring the game to additional platforms down the line. Thank you for your interest.

lucid sluice
#

I know that. But considering all their games were on ps Its a bit of a let down of the fans who supported their games on ps. Its probaply about exclusivity contracts rather than hard work. Being only on the fase of "considering" is sad. It means that it may never come. Anyway....

spiral island
#

Speaking as someone with game programming experience, creating a good port is a ton of hard work, especially since (to my knowledge) Supergiant uses a custom engine developed in collaboration with another company, not something like Unity/Unreal/etc. which makes porting a little bit easier (but still really hard work).

tranquil bay
north pulsar
#

hey guys

#

remember me

lucid sluice
tranquil bay
#

It was only ever one year and they said from the start it would come to steam after that year, which is why many people waited.

lucid sluice
#

But I guess ps players must wait.

tranquil bay
#

I linked that comment specifically for their commentary about their difficulties in porting. Even knowing they wanted to bring Hades to switch they comment it was still a difficult task to do.

#

so it stands to reason additional ports are no less difficult

lucid sluice
#

I never understood discord discussions. General of topic is ok includes almost all of the above. But anyway thanks for the info

#

y'know, I've noticed something odd about myself - I've never especially enjoyed fanfiction that transposes the characters from a spec-fic property into an ordinary high school or college or a coffee shop or whatever

#

but I legitimately enjoy fanart that does that.

#

what's up with that? 🤔

queen blaze
#

The cuteness of it doesn’t carry a whole story?

quiet lake
#

Hmm. I could see that!

#

It takes a lot of visual creativity to come up with AU designs for characters, too

#

whereas, for writing, the higher-effort approach is usually writing within canon and finding something to accurately embroider on

queen blaze
#

And with art it gets to be a single perfect moment.

quiet lake
#

Mmm, yeah!

#

(Which is a funny topic, since I was just poking at a Pyre fic the other day and admitting to myself that I was effectively trying to write a fanart, and there wasn't enough there there to sustain an entire fic)

#

(I had the one distinct image in my head but wasn't having much luck building a story around it, and I don't have the right skillset to draw it properly 🤣 )

it makes sense, most high school AUs have the same tropes that get old after a while, especially if you don't like them

I have a story. I was just cleaning the kitchen and I hear the doorbell. I live on a private property on the top of a mountain, so this is a rare occurrence. I open the door and I see this skinny white kid no older than 10. I ask him what he needs and he responds, "Oh, I found these antlers while I was hiking, up there, I was wondering if I could keep them." I ask normal questions when there's a tiny kid at your door, thing like "are you alone, where do you live, what's your name?" He responds "I don't know" to everything except his name, which we'll call him..... Pisaac. No relation to the name he gave me. I do the thing a normal person would do and call the cops. I tell them there's a 3rd grader on my front door all by himself. Apparently they got a call earlier today that they know that there is a kid hiking on his own ambition. I'm making small talk with him and he mentions the fact that his mom is in a small church group which screams "cult" to me. Cops show up and he talks to me and the officer so nonchalantly. Detail i don't want to rewrite into the previous essay is that he also wanted a shopping bag to carry stuff in his bag because it was too heavy. We walk down the driveway and his bag is in the middle of the driveway full of rocks, they're not even good rocks. Just such a strange thing.

Where is this going?

#

He went back home. I went to mine. The police went back to the station.

#

That's where we went.

proud flicker
#

gerry you met a skinwalker

forest basalt
#

no idea what that means

proud flicker
#

the kid is a ghost

forest basalt
#

or an uncared for child

rain mortar
#

That's pretty wild

forest basalt
#

It just caught me off guard.

proud flicker
#

yeah a random kid in the middle of nowhere

forest basalt
#

maybe it is a mountain ghost

proud flicker
#

it's a spirit that shapeshift as a human

forest basalt
#

i'm looking up mountain demons

#

There's a chinese dragon that feeds off of children in the mountains.

#

That seems unlikely in central Washington.

proud flicker
#

but like did the cops take the kid lol

forest basalt
#

yes

proud flicker
#

ok

forest basalt
#

i'm not that bad of a person

proud flicker
#

honestly that could have been a dangerous situation

forest basalt
#

The officer was talking about how he could've gotten hurt and he said, "oh, i fell a skinned my knee a bit." Officer:"We're talking about hitting your head or breaking your leg where you need someone else to help you." This is what i mean by so nonchalant.

proud flicker
#

yup, dehydration, injury, potential animal attacks.

#

sometimes it's good to be a bit of a karen

forest basalt
#

it's almost summer most of the animals have moved up north, but yeah still.

#

And I did ask him if he had water and he had some rinky dinky ozarka kids bottle

Was the name Pisaac a reference to Biblical Isaac?

How would you feel if Apple buys Discord (for whatever reason)?

high coyote
#

honestly any big company buying Discord would make me feel uneasy

#

since Dis has pretty much become my only form of social interactivity since, y'know

proud flicker
#

yup same

#

I guess I am kinda baiting an answer here

#

i guess the best course, really is discord going public huh

high coyote
#

is it not public already?

proud flicker
#

no, it's still a "startup",. kinda

#

as in it's still in the losing money phase

#

the exit time is close though, discord can either be bought out by a large company for go public themselves.

twilit quiver
#

There was a post going around that Microsoft bought discord on April fools day, of tho the link to the story led to Rick Ashley

@fading flint gods are just deified heroes; a "race of gods" aren't actually gods to humans but rather just a superpowered mythical race of people

fading flint
#

yeah

#

uhhhh

#

i thought you meant something like

#

human heroes and gods were the same

#

i was thinking of greek and norse mythology concretely

#

where the aesir and vanir are considered "gods" intrinsically and not human

solemn beacon
#

again, heracles is a folk hero who was deified into a god only in his local town

fading flint
#

lol

solemn beacon
#

it depends on how you define "god"

fading flint
#

im saying god as in a superior race of beings

solemn beacon
#

in chinese, the word for "god" is just a combination of "mystical" and "immortal"

fading flint
#

nice

fading flint
solemn beacon
#

in daoist religion, all living things can become immortal with the right training

fading flint
#

i wouldnt call titans gods

solemn beacon
#

but titans literally are gods

fading flint
fading flint
solemn beacon
#

in what language

fading flint
#

arent gods descendant from titans

solemn beacon
#

"god" is an english word

fading flint
#

cool

fading flint
solemn beacon
#

the olympians are descended from the titans

#

but titans, olympians, and chthonic gods are all still gods

#

a god is just a concept of somebody with agency which isn't a human

fading flint
#

not only olympians tho?

solemn beacon
#

often tied with a concept

fading flint
#

if im not wrong hephaestus and hades are not olympians

solemn beacon
#
  1. there is no one origin story for all gods
fading flint
#

anyways this may have to do with language

solemn beacon
#
  1. all primordial concepts are gods
fading flint
#

the spanish word for god is Dios which i believe comes from "Deus" in latin

#

and that refers to a different kind of entity i believe

#

one of the omnipotent and all-knowing one, or am i wrong

solemn beacon
#

that's like specifically the abrahamic god

#

no other gods are omnipotent or omniscient

fading flint
#

yeah true

#

honestly the concept of "god" is soooooooo much varied across mythologies that honestly this discussion is pretty much pointless ngl

solemn beacon
#

well

#

yeah

#

anyway chaos is the one primordial god being which gave rise to ouranos and gaia

#

they produced the titans, who then made the olympians

#

aphrodite was not born of anyone but would have been the same generation as the titans

#

@austere scarab also yeah sun wukong is like aforementioned stone that became a monkey who trained really hard and became immortal

#

i think if there was a staff weapon in the game, which there isn't, wukong would have fit well

#

as it is it seems like the game is mostly going with literature figures rather than actual gods that modern people still worship, which makes sense

#

although ive actually seen altars to guan yu in china that people do pray to

limber walrus
#

Guan Yu, iirc, is a legendary figure who became deified

austere scarab
#

Huh

solemn beacon
#

not sure what "deified" really means in this context

austere scarab
#

Rama is still the bow of a god that modern people worship though

solemn beacon
#

but in chinese folk religion, which itself is an ancestor worship religion

#

all heroes are the same thing as gods

limber walrus
#

I don't recall how much is history and how much is legend, but I believe he was a human general who ascended to godhood after his death

solemn beacon
#

well he's from the romance of the three kingdoms

#

i mean hes not FROM it

#

the story was written like 1200 years after the death of the real guy

#

but at that point people were already raising altars in his image and praying to him

limber walrus
#

Ah, I follow

solemn beacon
#

as a chinese person i wanted to like the guan yu aspect but the hp is way too punishing LMAO

limber walrus
#

XD

#

It definitely takes some getting used to

solemn beacon
#

it's weird to me that only guan yu is a god and liu bei and zhang fei are still just randos

#

as a kid i heard the least about guan yu and just assumed he was the boring middle child

#

wasnt until i moved to america that i heard from americans who played some 3 kingdoms inspired video games that apparently guan yu was supposed to be a god

#

i know way more stories about both liu bei and zhang fei

fading flint
solemn beacon
#

all the other planets use latin names

fading flint
#

same name for both in english

fading flint
solemn beacon
#

yeah i mistyped

fading flint
#

oh ok

#

well yeah thats true

solemn beacon
#

but uranus for some reason is using the latinization of the greej ouranos

fading flint
#

whats the latin version of ouranos anyways

solemn beacon
#

but in reality, the roman counterpart of ouranos is caelus

fading flint
#

huh thats odd

solemn beacon
#

which can't be used because that just means the sky

#

or universe

fading flint
#

maybe it was discovered afterwards?

solemn beacon
#

it was yeah

#

everything past jupiter was discovered millennia later

#

it was a german astrologist who decided to name uranus

fading flint
#

i mean thats kinda obvious but what i meant is; maybe it was not dicovered by the same people

fading flint
solemn beacon
#

no respect for tradition whatsoever lmao

fading flint
#

yeah lol

#

i find funny how you got all this olympians as main planets and Ceres is a dwarf

solemn beacon
#

im annoyed because if they wanted to do latin they could have named it caelus, and if they wanted to do greek it could have been ouranos

#

instead pee

fading flint
#

lmaoo

#

where does the term uranus even come from

solemn beacon
#

alternate transliteration from greek into latin

fading flint
#

i see

solemn beacon
#

o and u are standing in for the same vowel

fading flint
#

yea

#

Urano, in spanish

#

-us usually just turns into -o

#

Hephaestus --> Hefesto

solemn beacon
#

yeah same in italian

fading flint

are u italian?

no im chinese
