It is the best on the market but unfortunately they just use Google underneath plus their own blog index. And at least to me it seems it isn’t going in a better direction.

I feel like the quality of her videos is way down but I am ND and found that video pretty neutral.

I skimmed a transcript just now because I wanted to understand why people are so disproportionately mad about it. She mentions Autism Speaks and does not immediately condemn it. Is that it? I wouldn’t say that counts as being wrong on everything.

I’m tired of (especially internet) discourse where shouting which camp you belong to is most important. One good example is when people accused Amnesty of siding with Russia because they reported on Ukrainian warcrimes. Nothing is truly neutral but I much prefer information or thought experiments over the virtue signaling that has taken over the internet.

You will not convince people to change their mind by shouting in their faces that your point of view is correct. Granted, you usually wont change people’s mind online anyway, except entrenching them deeper into their existing beliefs. I don’t think that is a good thing regardless of the side they take. It leads to seeing fellow humans as monsters just because they are wrong about something.

it is better than the competition but it will never be like Google before 2019 because they’ll never build their own index.

I think it is funny to make this an ethics discussion when there is plenty of evidence that bacon and sausage cause digestive tract cancers. Meat is also pretty expensive unless heavily subsidized.

I think the main focus should be on educating people that a healthy diet contains a very small amount of meat even though the meat industry has managed to make people think it should be in every meal.

There is but most people prefer to pretend they understand rather than seek a scientific understanding.

I interpreted your first comment as meaning that you are supposed to hate the book because of its topic as many people seem to think whenever it is brought up.

Rowling has said a lot more questionable things, though. And even written books about her insane opinions. Calling Lolita a love story makes sense, as that is the protagonist’s point of view, even though the story is also many other things.

Crime novels about murders are a very popular type of book. Do you think that people read them because they’d enjoy watching murder in real life?

Also, the writing seriously is that good. I’d have completed the book if it was about watching paint dry.

Prismata is the best 1v1 turn-based competitive game. It even looks and feels somewhat like Starcraft.

It isn’t very pooular, which I blame on bad tutorial and monetization decisions. It used to have just a series of missions for learning the game but in an attempt to make it palatable for a wider audience, the developers replaced it with a story and way too easy tutorial missions. The monetization is random loot boxes which doesn’t fit well, as the game itself has no rng.

Unlike Starcraft, Prismata can be mastered simply by playing. (I went from bronze to gold in SC2 by not playing the game for years. It helped me focus on actually important things instead of getting my build order timings just right.)

Factorio has the best modding API and user experience out there.

Some mods are not possible due to no native code mods but the devs add things to the modding API for every reasonable request.

You can patch bugs but a buggy game will never be like Factorio. Also, fanmade fixes tend to introduce some wonkyness.

PoE could be very good for you then.

In the campaign you can do basically anything. If you are too weak, you just need to know some very basic mechanics of the game and do some problem solving. I often use three different setups and pick my favourite one.

In the endgame, you can do absolutely crazy stuff, as you can equip all unique items by then. There are viable builds that basically nobody knows about.

One thing you need to know about the game is that you should aim to be able to one shot normal enemies. If you can’t, you need to make adjustments soon.
