  • I don't have any naivety about the state of the political landscape of Russia. Voting out Putin would be correct way to do things but more realistically he would need to be toppled for there to be change. But that's because all non-violent avenues have been cut off. I don't think waiting for his death is the answer because his death will also create a power vacuum and instability and most likely in that case he'll just be replaced by another autocrat.

    Bringing that point back to America, I think there's still a chance for America to course correct without resorting to violence, but that requires the American people to start pressuring the administration right now. The more they wait the more they become like Russia, where eventually all the way to get rid of the autocrat without violence have been dismantled. And much like in Russia, waiting for Trump to die isn't going to solve anything because the Republican party will just find someone to replace him.

  • Do you think the current Russian state is the best it can be for its citizens? Or even remotely beneficial to them?

  • If they can vote him out, yes. If they can't then I think they should forcibly remove him. It's the Russian people who are suffering from his stupid war, not him.

  • I don't think the person I replied to is interested in taking action, which is why I commented in the first place. People like him need to be told that there's no sitting out this one. If you do nothing then it's only going to get worse.

  • We can stop complaining, we can be chill. We can vote in people who will stand up to Trump and keep him away from us. But we can only keep him away from us. It's up to the American people to keep him away from you because it's not our business to stick our nose into your business. This isn't even about us, it's about you. Instead of telling us to chill you should be asking yourself why you're so chill with it. Doing nothing is still going to lead to something and that something is only getting worse.

    We don't like what your country is doing but when it eventually gets resolved and there is a world left standing our lives will be fine. You will be the ones who have to continue putting up with this shit.

  • Why are people still romanticizing No Man’s Sky’s “redemption” arc?

  • Anthem in some ways is a better example because Start Citizen is never going to release, they can cruise on their promises until the company goes bankrupt. Anthem however was released in an unfinished state hardly reaching the hype it generated and then EA just cut their losses and left it like that.

  • What's the difference between a Mona Lisa and a cheap knock-off of Mona Lisa? Other than the fact the one of them is not Mona Lisa? You are right in the sense that if you're an uncultured hick there's no difference. You have to be cultured to understand the difference because it's a cultural thing.

  • 'Europe is at a total loss': Russia gloats over Greenland tensions

    Jump

  • A good piece of propaganda has a sprinkle of truth in it. It's like when Nick Fuentes uses popular leftist talking points when talking about the kind of world he wants to live in, you know being able to afford food and housing and not being screwed over by big businesses etc. And just as you go "he's actually making sense" he pulls a 180 and goes "the only way to get those things is if we get rid of all the non-whites and jews".

    That's just an extreme example to get the point across, more often than not it's way more subtle and you're not supposed to get whiplash from going a leftist position to a far right position.

  • Ubisoft target audience when they play a good game

    Jump

  • Not to play the devils advocate but they do have an argument. Not in the physics point because physics haven't been done to death so that part of Half-life 2 IMO is still fresh. But the rest of Half-life 2 can be dull and boring and nonsensical if played today. Half-life 2 was such a cultural shift that everything great about it has been dissected, analyzed and improved upon wherever possible.

    Much like Half-life 1 the things that made the game great are industry standard now. You're used to the greatness so all you see are the flaws. The boat section is too long, the car section is poorly paced, the story is too cryptic, the list probably goes on. But anyone who played it at launch knows how fucking sick the game is because there was nothing else like it.

  • NHS defends cousin marriages because ‘only 15 percent lead to birth defects’

    Jump

  • The issue I have with your argument is you can use the exact same argument for sibling incest. If two cousins can have a child, and we're dismissing the birth defect risk argument, then why can't a brother and sister have a child? What if they just want to fuck? What if the entire family is into the aristocrats style gang bang?

    Your argument doesn't draw a line between cousin incest and parent-child or sibling incest. If one is okay then the other should also be okay and I don't know about you but I'm definitely not okay with the latter. I'm not saying you're in the wrong but I do disagree with the argument you made for it.

  • Data centers will consume 70 percent of memory chips made in 2026 - supply shortfall will cause the chip shortage to spread to other segments | Tom's Hardware

    Jump

  • Unless you're planning on buying the whole rack you're not scooping up anything, except maybe the hard drives. The memory and GPUs are not consumer grade hardware. Some of the GPUs you technically could hook up to your PC, for example the Nvidia A6000, but its launch price was ~$4500 so even on the cheaper end you're shelling out probably $3000 for a card that (out the box) is marginally better than the 4070ti. Most of the GPUs and pretty much all of the memory is not compatible with your standard consumer grade MoBos.

    Jump

  • It hurts EU exports only to the extent where the US can subsidize EU imports with something else. For example you can only get Ozempic from Denmark so that's just a 10% tax on Ozempic because it's going to be imported regardless.

  • Fearing Midterm Loss, Trump Once Again Says 'We Shouldn't Even Have an Election'

    Jump

  • Trump is a piece of shit but he's got charm, he's got presence and people listen to him. He can straight up say shit that is factually untrue and his base will go "he's right you know".

    JD Vance however is about as charming as a reddit mod. When he speaks people wish there was a mute button. The couch he fucks is more charming than him. Unless he goes through some transformation that makes him at the very least presentable Trumps base is going to turn on him. They're not going to listen to that ventriloquist puppet.

  • What is an omelet? And is that what I make? If not, what DO I make?

    Jump

  • I mean more goes into an omelette that just having a fold/flip, but it can still be considered an omelette because the eggs are beaten (otherwise you're most likely going into scrambled eggs territory), the filling is not mixed in it with the eggs (which would move it more into frittata territory), it's not relying on dairy (which would make it more like a quiche) and it seems to be thin enough to be folded (if it's too thick it goes back into frittata or quiche territory). Worst case OP is just making overcooked omelettes.

    The only things an omelette purist might bring up is that when the eggs get added you don't want to cover it up because that lets steam build up which usually leads to a puffy and dry (or drier) omelette. Instead you should slowly stir it to get the omelette to set more evenly. When it starts to set you stop stirring and let it cook a little more so the bottom gets firm (but not like a clear crust) while the top keeps its silky texture. And if you want cheese on the omelette use a cheese grater not slabs of cheese (unless those slabs are very thin) because you're very likely to overcook the omelette while you wait for the slabs to melt. Of course all of that applies only when you don't put in too much filling so the omelette stays on the thinner side (easy to fold). If your omelette is already thick due to a lot of filling (hard or impossible to fold) don't even bother listening to the purists because the purists will tell you to stop butchering an omelette and just make a Frittata. But I say don't let you dreams be dreams, just do it the way you like it.
