They’re not maxing any sense.

to envelop… that mountain.

So, why has he left some skin exposed?

Pretty sure it’s so that he doesn’t overheat. And good luck on the ‘þ’ crusade.

Great, now I have Weezer playing my head :/

It really is a slow burn, especially compared to modern movie pacing.

I watched it when it came out and found it gorgeous. Maybe a bit heavy on the message, but the world-building doesn’t try to punch above its weight. It really felt like a not-so-far future.

Took me around 500 hours to beat level 20 in StS1. Such a great character.

Great article, thanks for sharing!

I was just discussing something along these lines with a friend. Back when dial-up was was king, I went to an info expo where they were displaying broadband. I typed in my email host’s website, and when I pressed enter, the page just clicked in. No vertical loading whatsoever. It was the future!

Funny to see twenty-odd years later we are stuck in the same throttling ecperience us dial-up users had to experience organically. I really hope a new web is in the brewing. Corpo greed is so fucking cruel.

I wasn’t patient this time around, so it’s Slay the Spire 2, early access.

It runs really well on my two core third gen ryzen laptop, and I will gladly recommend it to anyone who likes deckbuilders.

Sorry, not really. I could only point you towards my wayward comment mentioning Weber and Dürkheim.

Sociology really wouldn’t be a bad place to start, you can see how the words are derived from the same base. I don’t know any modern thinkers, I flunked out pretty early from that uni.

If you try the inward out method (by observing social transactions, peer pressures), you would still be well off to pick up some literature, so you can get some framing for it.

Me and my reading comorehension. Good luck!

Sorry if came through as judgy in my first comment. What territory of sociology interests you? Why do you want to learn more on the topic?

In the school where I was taught, one of the major directions was statistics. Harm reduction and drug policy also go under the umbrella. I really enjoyed the idea of mental maps, but that might’ve been the cultural anthropology class (which kinda bleeds over into the subject).

Easy way? What do you mean by that? Sociology doesn’t even have a basic axiom, it’s such an elusive thing.

Either be attentive and critical to the social constructs that surround you (if possible, it’s really hard to just observe, because many things we thing are natural, like inhereting your father’s name, not your mother’s), or start reading Max Weber, Karl Marx & Emile Dürkheim’s writings to get started.

I was against banning the communities, but the second link doesn’t feel like it deserved to be banned. Many examples brought up in the vote were comments that were looking for a fight, using aggressive language.

It’s also pretty telling that the vote was about banning access to communities, and after it finished, they banned the whole instance. I guess it is important to the community (or the folks that are paying to support the instance), that everyone is on the same page on this issue.
