Civ… 4?

You’re absolutely correct, however:

Violence is justified on occasion.

This cannot be disentangled from a natural derivative: ‘Tyranny is justified on occasion.’ Just what the occasion is that justifies it is much harder to pin down. Traffic laws can be a form of tyranny, for example.

Importantly, this should not be confused with despotism. The statement ‘Despotism is justified on occasion’ is distinct, and uh, less defensible. Every time there’s even the semblance of a benevolent dictator a religion ends up spawning that plagues humanity for centuries with a fixation on the dictator instead of the benevolence.

So to bring it back, if the wolf wasn’t already blowing down and eating the pigs using straw and wood, he’d have his justification, instead of the convenience of one.

Sounds like they’ve been contacted by their local solid waste department who was lazy about how most sanitary codes don’t define garbage in a trailer as solid waste.

It’s one of the dumber and common loopholes, but a health department with resources (legal and political) would actually require progress at eliminating the garbage since the loophole is based on staging waste for removal.

States and local juridiction vary wildly.

Plug and play, except you have to provide instructions and chastisement first.

It’s pretty much in the “OGLAF” class of webcomics, but maybe a little more wicked and subtle.

subtle

Yuuko would disagree.

I miss when being an audiophile was just using vintage equipment and/or opting for lossless formats over compressed mp3s.

I have seen those Breaking Bad arguments before too, and I am more inclined accept that sentiment there.

I read this is Boomhauer, g’dangit.

Misogyny is a massive problem on reddit

Yeah but this is Lemmy. There’s far more overlap between ‘sausage party’ and ‘women’ here than most other social media can even handle.

And like, I never watched GoT nor read the books but still caught the reference. So this doesn’t feel like a form of arcane misogyny.

I like the pistol just pointed right at him.

Why yes I do drive a Nissan.

The decision to keep the ring on. Nice.

I immediately caught the Gothic references/influence which I think was actually a bit of a drawback for me. I was able to predict a lot of the mechanics and story, like being able to figure out essentially a frame perfect way to defeat the strong bandits early in the game and then coasted on that loot.

That said I think it had quite a bit more depth than I was expecting and I appreciated that a great deal.

Now I imagine the dub would be in a thick Boston accent.

Where’s the step where you frantically search post histories and mod logs to try and frame a sentence out of context? That appears to be a critical step according to my Local feed.

Zero expectations but they have helped form an actual focus point to organize around. Redacted or not they’re a rallying point.

I don’t really care about game awards but it does seem like some retroactive application of opinion on genAI if they used it in 2022. There was a very different landscape and general opinion on genAI in 2022, (nonone really knew or cared.) I suspect the award show made the rule about genAI after 2022.

Either way, happy to see more press about good games, be it C33 or Blue Prince.

It got him celebrity. That opens doors in ways money doesn’t.

Okay, but in oil or butter?
