Yup, that sounds like Trump’s spiritual advisor, all right. On the other hand, he’s not looking to render the poor down for biofuel production unlike Thiel’s Guru Yarwin, so there’s that I guess.

I might as well give up on sanity now and save what little yet remains, by lulling myself into the delusion that Trump’s statement implies not that he’s a dribbling moron, but that he’s well-acquainted with Leonard Susskind’s work on the Holographic principle.

Shit no. Unlike the MAGA’s I’m not mentally flexible enough for that level of gymnastics, and I may just have sprained my brain. Send help.

Can’t say I know many, let alone by name - but I’ve got a funny little anecdote for you:

I’m a demoscener, and many moons ago I was asked to hack up some effects to run on e-waste as part of the setting for a series of three raves that had been funded to function as backdrops for a - sadly - unreleased Danish cyberpunkish sci-fi movie. These were to be held at Burmeister & Wain’s old machine halls on Refshaleøen in Copenhagen - an excellent setting for it. Martin got in on the game and used it to test their latest equipment.

Only trouble was, I had just returned from a demo party where I’d gotten very little sleep, and I had like a three day deadline, which didn’t help in that respect. I got it done, then helped as part of the stage crew and when the rave finally started, after… quite a few days without sleep - I finally completely conked out in the nearest place I could crawl to.

I woke up after some undefined amount of time, in the middle of a rave in full swing to a rather handsome fellow squatting while taking pictures of me with a lens assembly longer than my forearm. Very nice dude - when he saw me waking up, he immediately came over and apologized for taking pictures of me without asking first, but as he pointed out… I had had fallen asleep in a bean bag right in front of a massive bass driver powerful enough to make my hair flutter as I, uh, rested, and I could hardly disagree that me sleeping like a baby while hugging a subwoofer the size of a small car must’ve made for a unique motive. No idea where those pictures ended up being published, if they ever did.

Meanwhile, the FBI apparently has plenty of resources to run around persecuting people not for their actions, but for their environmental views. Forget neo-nazis and traitors, who clearly only wants what’s best for their country - the lovable little scamps. /s

Skyrim can be played as either, though I personally do prefer 1st person in the case of Skyrim. I specifically said ‘3rd person RPG’ because the point I was making wasn’t limited to just Skyrim, and anything played 3rd person is obviously where it’s important to my experience of, ah… the game. Yes, totally of the game.

It will almost certainly work better than mine, which can best be illustrated by… Um, have you ever seen one of those videos of a cat mindlessly missing the door it was aiming for and bonking it’s head into the frame, confusedly backing up a bit and… then missing the door again?

Yeah, that.

Krogans need four down below, Baterians need four up top, Salarians need an entire pile and Asari… will go for anything.

I’m… honestly not all that shocked.

For me it’s not even about gender identity or role playing. If I’m going to spend 200 hours in a 3rd person RPG looking at a character’s ass, that ass had better be female.
