  • sometimes we get lost in the sauce

    Jump

  • If they were richer or more powerful, they'd definitely be more targeted. What they might or might not have had at the time that you'd expect today (or even in a later medieval setting) is protection. What's the line between "the town set up a ritual designating the leader as responsible for failure" and "a bunch of people from downtown got upset and ganged up on the mayor and the landlord one night"?

  • What're your strong opinions from an aged / dead fandom?

    Jump

  • And the fans are once again anticipating that it'll be Mega Man Legends 3.

    What do you mean? Capcom immediately announced it as classic Mega Man 12, and showed gameplay too, no one is expecting it to be Legends 3.

  • Just four twenty twelve, that's enough. We're not savages.

  • Any RPGs that take into account when you reload a save? Or that break the 4th wall like this?

    Jump

  • The sequels, Warrior Within and The Two Thrones, also push through the storyline based on the fact the your character changed the past, did so multiple times, and kept screwing it further until hitting the big reset button.

    Warrior Within has a scene where you watch a parallel version of you (you don't know it at the time) get killed, go back in time, and then relive that scene as the parallel version but you make your past version get killed instead.

  • The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is 100.00% decompiled

    Jump

  • Nintendo got a Gamecube emulator running on the NVidia Shield, in China only. The version of TP released on it got upscaled textures - different from the Wii U HD version. Never went anywhere else. This was around 2019. I never heard of any particular difference, it was just an emulator after all.

    Looking up more details - the emulator came out with TP and a couple other games in late 2017, and the upscaled textures were udpated in 2019.

  • A San Francisco power outage left Waymo's self-driving cars stranded at intersections

    Jump

  • My first assumption giving them the benefit of the doubt would be that it's a rhetorical question to point out that there is a proper response and the car should have been taught to do that instead. Even if a lot of actual drivers don't know the answer.

  • Neanderthals wouldn't be considered a person under U.S law

    Jump

  • Well, also yes, ipso facto? If we're offspring of sapiens sapiens and sapiens neanderthalis, that means they had viable offsprings together, therefore they're the same species, QED...

  • Recognize what others do that you don't do

    Admit which things are bad or not, understand why they are bad or not, and chose to not do the things that are bad

    See the distinction between others and you

    If you do things and you learn that they are bad and hurt others, work on it to understand what's going on and make a better decision, don't feel insulted and get mad at people telling you that something you did is hurting others

    Don't take things personally as an attack on yourself, don't bind your identity to a larger group

  • One in 10 Mamdani voters were also Trump voters, study finds

  • Did you expect... to see him win first and THEN for the DNC to sabotage him? Would that be the only way for to to accept that it happened, and anything else is just "he lost"?

  • Kim Jong-un admits North Korean troops clearing landmines for Russia

  • "Here's your equipment" hands a pair of boots

  • That's none of my business

  • Anton Petrov also has good analysis of papers like that, here's him explaining why no the observation does not support the black hole cosmology as long as we're not cherrypicking https://youtu.be/xXSV9JaWxCE

    Doesn't mean the paper is shit, it always helps drawing parallels to notice differences and refine our equations, but the sensationalism must prevail for all the news sites reporting on it I guess.

  • Huh

    Jump

  • Let's not pretend Google Translate isn't a couple of taps away

    Which only makes it weirder that the person writing didn't do that themselves, but instead wanted everyone else to waste their time.

  • Huh

    Jump

  • 1885 is way too recent. Anything past 1800 is Napoleon taking Europe, everyone's local consequences, and then WW1. There's a thousand and a half years of material to discuss before that even after Greece and Rome, this is only the very end and if you're paying attention.

  • Huh

    Jump

  • You teach behavior and biases, but it's well observed that kids naturally don't see distinctions between groups of people until it is taught to them, and that kids do feel empathy naturally, and will feel upset about perceived injustices and such. Isolating a white kid so they don't see a Black kid until they're 15 is a learned thing, if they're raised in a shared environment, they won't see a difference. What you teach is how to act on it (like sharing), how to handle emotions about it. Restricting experience is teaching.

  • Huh

    Jump

  • History lessons are a bunch of names and dates that you have to learn by heart. We went there, we made this place, we came back with this shit, we made a church. Here's a family tree. Even when learning about battles and borders, we don't get to ask "why were they here? Why were we there?" We just know that we were at war because this king and that king disagreed. Sometimes, at best, one of them just wants control of this location or someone's wife banged the wrong duke, but that's almost only for intra European conflicts - and Jerusalem.

    Ethnic social issues came very late. Jews and other wandering populations are completely ignored.

  • Metroid Prime 4: Beyond – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition — Launch Trailer

  • The bike Amiibo unlocks color schemes for the bike, there's a handful unlocked every 50km you ride (which seems to go pretty fast and I barely crossed the map once in one direction). So far I've only unlocked a classic Varia suit color scheme.

    Looking at a list, they're not terrible if you're into that, but they're a bit meh and I wouldn't be too upset if I was locked out of it. The default skin looks great.

  • Was Luigi Mangione read his Miranda rights during McDonald’s arrest?

    Jump

  • The issue is with the initial search. They can only search after they have the warrant, and they allegedly made the arrest knowing they would find a gun, and then got the warrant, and then "found" the gun again.

    Even if they claim that as long as they did find the gun, it means they were right - the problem is that, had they not known about the gun, they wouldn't have had grounds to arrest him, and therefore they wouldn't have a conviction. That sounds fine as long as you do find a murderer, but not for everyone else they search like that with no warrant.

    Even assuming the gun was real and not planted, the legal issue is that they can't be allowed to fish for anyone they want, even if they happen to land on the right guy - after countless other innocents. Forcing them to let an actual murderer free would, presumably, push them to think twice before violating random people's rights.

    And after that, they have to prove somehow that the gun wasn't planted while they had the bag and the owner couldn't check on them.

  • On cable TV / talk shows, that's "the host and the sidekick." Kimmel and Guillermo, Conan and Andy, some do that with the lead of the band (Colbert, Fallon, Meyers)...

  • Kash Patel hits back at humiliating report that he demanded an FBI raid jacket

    Jump

  • If they prove that some of what's said about them is bullshit, then it invites questioning the veracity of the actual problems that we haven't made up.

    That's exactly how it works when the Nazis flood social media with nonsense. You just hav e to prove one thing wrong, that destroys their credibility forever and no one ever repeats what they say again.
