Let's be honest, most of Reddit's default subreddits (or whatever the fuck they're called now) are basically just karma farms with no real moderation beyond removing extreme content. The real value of Reddit has always been in its smaller, niche subs. But as those grow in popularity, they end up having the same problems as bigger subs.

I think "common" here would refer to having to produce them, over the actual explicitness of the scene. Whether Mass Effect fades to black or not isn't really the point when the voice actors still have to record the lines that play while the screen is dark.

Yeah, what they're asking for is pretty standard stuff in other media. A friend of mine is an actor who played a scene where he had to shoot a masturbation scene. He was alone in a room with like 3-4 people: sound guy, camera guy, director, and I think the intimacy coach was there too.

Having a whole team watch you pretend to have sex is not okay, what the hell.

Wake me up when the “Congress” actually decides to take actions not just ask “questions” after the damage is done and money is made.

Right. Into Cryo-Sleep you go, then!

The post made me look him up (it's been years since I've seen him in anything) and I just learned that good ol' Lyle McDouchebag was a voice actor in Class of '09. TIL.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were exclusively arguing in bad faith/trolling. I'll stop responding.

You’re the one that decided an entire culture of thinking, feeling people are born objectively evil and can be killed en masse. And that’s fucked up.

I think that's where the issue falls apart. You want them to be thinking feeling people who can change. They don't have to be. If an evil deity creates Goblins, and makes them evil for whatever reason, they can inherently lack the ability to freely think and evolve.

And there's nothing "fucked up" about it.

Look at some villains who are just objectively evil. People point-out the Adventure Time Lich all the time, and that thing is just evil. There's no point trying to argue with it. No point trying to convince it to right its wrongs. It doesn't care, because it's just evil.

Why should a group defined by plundering travelers be more acceptable than a group defined by being short with green skin?

Because in a fantasy world, where we can know for 100% certainty that gods created life, it's not impossible for those gods to have made a certain creature type objectively evil.

In some settings, Orcs are the way they are because their god is the last one to pick a place for them to live, gets pissy, and decides that "Fuck you guys! If that's how you want to play it, my orcs are going to plunder the shit out of your guys' lands!"

In other settings, there has to be some kind of cosmic balance to things, and some gods are just evil because there has to be a natural counterpart to good, and so the creatures they create are just inherently evil.

I think the issue is with this kind of debate is that that it's referred to as "race". We don't really have a one-for-one on this IRL (because Goblins don't exist) and we don't refer to animals as "different races".

Same. Elden Ring's biggest weakness is its open world, in my opinion. It makes the first playthrough great, but it makes subsequent playthroughs a chore. Especially when you're aware that 90% of dungeons/side areas have completely worthless gear and runes. Your subsequent runs just end up being you riding Torrent for long stretches of time from point A to point B.

That’s the issue, Musk and all think they are the resistance.

Pretty sure Stephanie was saying the people still using Twitter love to think they'd join the resistance, but won't even stop using Twitter. Not that Elon thinks he's the resistance.

If your comic is rated mature, or if the user is using a known VPN IP address, Webtoons will require a login.

Depends on the features.

Git has some counterintuitive commands for some commands you may want to do when you want to quickly do something. Being able to click a button and have the IDE remember the syntax for you is nice.

Some IDEs have extra non-native Git features like have inlined "git blame" outputs as you edit (easily see a commit message per-line, see who changed what, etc.), better diff/merge tooling (JetBrain's merge tool comes to mind), being able to revert parts of the file instead of the whole file, etc.

the git integration in vscode which I discarded after few attempts to use

I'm going to be honest, I don't really like VS Code's Git integration either. I find it clunky and opinionated with shitty opinions.
