  • So just allow Hitler to take over europe and make an ethnostate through mass exodus?

    If you’re talking about the nukes, I agree, they were unnecessary as Axis Japan was already on the decline.

    But to argue the entire war was preventable by just displacing jewish people is naive and borders on antisemitic.

    There might’ve been ways to prevent the war from starting, like not destroying Germany’s economy as a scapegoat for WW1 would have done a lot.

    But after the Nazis siezed power there’s nothing you could do to diplomacy the Nazis into being peaceful.


  • That’s part of it but it’s not that we don’t know how, it’s that google search is ruined now.

    Paid advertisements floating to the top, search engine optimization completely ruining any form of categorization, a deluge of spam websites that pump out irrelevant articles full of keywords (ironically now using GPT to make more articles).

    If you want to actually get real people talking you have to append “reddit” to the end. But now Reddit is also becoming shitty for search.

    Nowadays people realize if all you get from google search is ai and social media, then why not skip the middle man? Hence people using ai and even Tiktok in place of Google.

    I personally use Claude to ask for niche questions and it actually gets to the point answering what I’m asking. (I double check using the terms it gives me to read more on Wikipedia and ect.)


  • I get annoyed when people say things like “big deal, just do xyz yourself, why are you complaining?” . Because making a clear and comprehensive game is WOTC’s job they are being paid for with our money!

    If the system has a flaw, it’s their job to fix it, if they don’t they’re doing a bad job.

    That being said, 5.5e has been pretty cleaned up in this aspect. I’m honestly shocked at how they both added new fun systems and codified a lot of vague mechanics.















  • Or in some cases might crash 8.5 million computers worldwide.

    Yes the Crowdstrike crash was caused by going 1 past an array length, caused by a magic number index and a regex mistake, and wasn’t caught because the tests didn’t work.

    The whole thing was a compound series of amateur mistakes, but with kernel access at boot time.
