Yeah he came in with an agenda (block all legislation that could hurt his luxury car daddies). And he achieved all if that. Now his job is done and he gets to retire early.

That is stupid from both of them.

Dont tell your boss you dont expect to be there long.

Dont expect your workers to want to be there long unless you offer good options to advance and educate themselves. Especially for a help desk job... that's very often an entry job to get a foot into the IT door.

Great game, really nice visuals and nice (very trippy) soundtrack. I tried to be a "good" cult leader, trying to ressurect everybody that "died" (most got sacrificed before they could die of old age), but some people should stay dead. And mourning and sadness is just another reason to put everybody on shrooms again

Saw it as a teenager. Its edgy but I enjoyed watching it.

Until the prison/stigmata scene that completely broke the movies own rules. The whole fuking point is he goes back in time to change something and he is the only one who knows it. To everyone else that is just how the past has always been. But not in that scene! People actively see the world change due to him changing the past. (Oh and him mutilating himself as a kid changes nothing about his live except for the scars? He ends up in the same jailcell with the same cellmate 25 years later? Sure.) Even as a teenager i realised the gigantic plot hole.

With that scene its a 3/10 movie for me. But not because it is edgy.

"Evolutionary reason" does not necessarily mean that a feature is an advantage. Mutations are random and then positive or negative selective pressure act on them untill the mutation is either extinct or is adopted by the whole population. For features without selective pressure the same thing still happens it just takes longer and is basically random. So different populations of a species will always develop different features even when given the same environment.

So for most of the features you listed: yeah it just happened.

You didn't read the article did you? Its not about the inclusion of a character, but about how a specific scene with that character is handled. The author claims it is completely jarring, doesn't fit into the games setting and doesn't even use the games existing lore for transgender people but instead uses modern terminology.

I found the article to very informative and not at all "gamergatey".

Its points are:

  • this is the scene
  • it is bad
  • here is exelent trans representation in a fantasy setting
  • "its a BioWare self insert"
  • this is how they could have handled it better
  • the game is great, but now everybody will just talk about woke, so again the game is good

The holy trinity, the father, the son and the holy spirit are the same entity.

No. The key looks strange and I hab to reread it a few times. I'm also quite certain I have seen the same joke before in a different comic

The ghost is sad because it locked itself out/forgot the key inside. Second ghost shows up an tells them to just warp through because they are ghosts. But instead of being happy they are inside and never needed the key, they try to move the key outside so they can unlock the door to get inside.

It will be a long time and a lot of innovations in material science until you can implant a quantum computer into a person. So much that I am not sure it is even possible (or practical)

That is the "low tech"; works 100% of the time; will make your live easier in the future solution.

It takes longer than remounting but getting rid of a NTFS drive in a Linux only environment is a good move.

That is like saying a 12 year old should be able to be healed from being quadriplegic because they are still growing. Some medical conditions are for live (at our current medical knowledge) and it doesn't matter if they are "physical" or "mental".
