    Like me posting here is obviously not private but a way to get your attention while also letting other people in on the fun. I feel like start a new conversation wording is one of your concerns in which case it could be reworded. @Korin Like start a private message or something.

    I may have missed some drama that you are talking about.

    Oh, nobody from here. I bet it was some sort of cross-site stalking, or something. It was quickly dealt with.

    I apparently have my goddamn head in the sand because anytime there's "drama" on here I don't know about it until months later. Me hearing about this at all also might just confirm your point people use this as a "PM" thing though. Why anybody would ever think this was at all private I don't know, but they do apparently.
    zegh8578
    Can someone put a gun to Korin's head, and make a system where people can clearly tell PM and "profile posts" apart? For the love of god

    Which I still do not get because a Profile post on any site is not private like ever. I know I don't like the way the site is but I don't like the way other forums are either because they all suck. "Starting a conversation with" might confuse people I guess but it never did me. I have seen people use the profile post as a pm because they never posted here but it is working fine those people never post again anyway.

    Sure. Imho, it's like a trip-rug in front of the door, all the regulars know to step over it, but noobs gonna trip and fall.
    I mean - it's kinda funny :v

    I just think it's the quickest way for them to get a post out. Nobody is going to start dropping tabs if they are asking for their account to be deleted.

    Lol, some kid on some art site got a take-down notification on behalf of Universal studios, for drawing a Baryonyx - in general.

    Is it true that Brachiosaurs are not real anymore?
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Nooo? Not sure what you're refering to, but there's no big news about Brachiosaurus or its identity.
    Maybe you're refering to the split of Brachiosaurus (US) and Giraffatitan (Tanzania), since the latter gave its look to most Brachiosaurus' reconstructions - but G. was named back in 1988, so... not recent!

    OH BOY, pro tip never suggest "united Scandinavia" to Norwegians, who spent centuries getting un-united :D I agree with a cultural unity though, defense, sharing science and culture - I love how we can swap movies and TV-shows around pretty freely. Among my favorite comedies are Gamle mænd i nye biler, Kopps (Sw.) and Mongoland (No.)

    My younger sister is studying in Denmark right now, and her experience is that nobody can understand her - we are Trønder, and our dialect can be... a challenge! However, when they get drunk, they seem to forget that they can't understand, and conversations flow freely, until they sober up again :D
    zegh8578

    I also like that - as a general rule - most of Scandinavia, including Finland, can sort of get together to make fun of Swedes :v

    I really like the fact that you can trip and fall on your dumb face in Cyberpunk 2077. The feature is rare enough to not be a problem

    Cool, had no idea. More games need to have you trip and fall - but of course, let it be exceedingly rare! These features can quickly become totally frustrating, if they happen even an iota too often!

    I loved this feature in Neo Scavenger, although it's all text - but that running during combat carried risk of tripping and falling

    One of my very few combat victories came after an opponent tripped and fell while charging me in the night, and I proceeded to beat him to death with a pipe :D

    I always think bangs are gunshots. I always consider the possibility that shit has truly hit the fan - because people die all the time, when shit did hit the fan, right in their unexpecting, optimistic face. Norway borders Russia, and Russian contingency plans exist to invade and occupy northern Norway

    I have a base outside of Norway though, I can go to Iberia, either Spain where I have family, or Portugal, where I have gf's family. I'll be fine. I'm just saying - if I hear so much as a pop in the distance, I'm getting airplane tickets.

    Rip Mariupol. If I understood correctly, the city has about a 1000 un-evacuated people left, along with 500 defenders
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    That's the significance of Russia blowing up neighborhoods: To leave nothing to return home to - in order to cripple Mariupol as a population center for as long as possible.

    And the reason is because they don't need to worry about the draft and all that dumb shit at least until modern age. They know they can count on men to kill each other.

    Here the army commited another false positive 2 weeks ago and a convicted narco ratted out how a lot of high command is basicallt in cahoots with them, and there are people who try to transplant the american "they die for our freedoms!" speech somehow. Probably paid trolls.

    I once got blocked by a "centrists" by simply stating I wasn't a Tanky so I had no clue why he expected me to engage in him asking me to defend Russia. Mentally ill people are like 70% of Twitter's userbase.

    Twitter is a pathology, most fast paced social media is, where people become mechanically obsessed with the little red notification, almost like casino patrons sink into the neurological response pattern to the blinks and the chimes and the colors - "one more spin, just one more D:"

    Joke aside though, Finland now contemplates NATO membership, and this might in fact trigger WW3 and ultimately nuclear exchange.

    Personally, I think Finland (as Sweden often does) is flexing. Russia very clearly prefers a rattled, small and weak opponent. Finland gains a lot of "street cred" by going "you know, maybe we will join NATO" after Russia threatens that joining NATO equals obliteration.

    An American told me that a country such as Poland, where half the population gladly vote for conservative values, has no right to exist.

    Turns out that the left and right paradigm is bullshit and was designed by the people that manipulate it.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Left and right can be a real thing, if you dichotomize individualism vs communalism - but the way that it has been commercialized through popular media, is very defanging, very safe, and obv a magnet for the simplebrained who want someone to yell at

    Hmmmmm really? I haven't seen any oportunities for such in the game proper, I did know that game-purchases came with "packs" that would give you extra credits, or grant you extra cars for your garage etc. Never saw the point, like paying extra to have the game played a little bit for you "here, we won you a couple of cars, and some credit!"

    Well, H. Sapiens sapiens is very modern human-centric term. Until the inevitable appearance of race that would be termed as H. Sapiens superioris. Like theoritical idea of a human race devoid of DNA noncoding sequences and vestigial phenotypes.
