  • I know Jordan Peterson has a lot of followers. He says it’s the women’s fault men are lonely. He says men are their victim, pictures women as evil while men should be on top. This creates an even bigger isolation and creates sex offenders.

    In Japan and South Korea there are many men who are isolated because of videogames and it’s online culture. They have a relationship with a Nintendo character of AI on their phone (no joke).

    Because a lot of lonely men are on the internet, it’s not a correct representation of the real world. Doesn’t change the fact there are many non the less.

    Just because there are many different cultures accessable for anyone through the internet, it’s easier to isolate yourself in such a culture. Whether it’s on reddit, 4chan, through games, forums or other social media groups. But it keeps you off the streets, away from real socializing, learning to behave, how to talk to a girl, find a hobby which isn’t on your computer, meet real friends.











  • So you’re saying it’s the insurance company’s job is to decide who is in a state to die, not a doctor. Why do we even have doctors? So when you have a medical emergency, why won’t you just go to the insurance company instead of a hospital, when the company is better in making medical decisions anyway?

    This may be new to you, but insurance companies have no medical training.

    The state of the woman in the ICU might sound hopeless but the coma can be medically induced due to the brain hemorrhage and with the proper medical care she could recover, if indeed her state isn’t too bad. This is something doctors are for, to calculate her chances and fight for her life if there is a chance of survival. If there’s no chance, it’s the family’s choice to pull the plug.

    But you’re fine with an insurance company calculating what it might cost to them then to make the decision to let her die?



  • Nope, second to last! Zwitserland is the last one!

    Edit: and I just learned Switzerland officially doesn’t have a capital city :)

    And I found out about more awesome stuff about Switzerland here

    Edit edit: oh and the Z on the Russian vehicles is because it’s a letter which doesn’t exist in the Cyrillic alphabet, as well as all the other letters or signs painted on military vehicles during the invasion of Ukraine. It represented the area where the vehicle came from, to prevent blue on blue engagement. The largest group of the invasion was marked with a Z so it became a national symbol in support of the war.

    Or from our perspective: the new swastika.


  • Oh I do, I’m skipping all AAA games. I illegally download them out of curiosity, but often delete them after 30min of playtime. But it still gets me angry because it basically is a major scam. Luring in loads of people with cool looking videos, then to deliver a bug simulator with most content locked behind more purchases (DLC’s, loot boxes, subscriptions), completely unbalanced and abandoned after the fist sale period because fixing the bugs and balance doesn’t provide more income so might as well quit and start a new scam. And then the audacity to complain people should not expect Baldur’s Gate 3 to be a standard to compare other games to. Maybe do see it as a standard and try to create a properly working product with actual decent content worth it’s money?


  • The graphics are too expensive for AAA games? AAA means they are throwing the highest category budget for developing a game. And they ONLY invest in graphics, discarding the rest like a proper story (if any), decent characters, bug fixing, balancing, etc. Now they create junk only 1% of players with a 4090 can run somewhay decently on medium settings with 30fps average and loads of framedrops.

    Wow guys, amazing, thanks I guess, this costed me 80 euros. Can’t you tone down the graphics by at least 60% and focus on the “game” part of the game instead?
