I think that the multiverse exist and we're the 1% of timelines that the cold war didnt go hot.

Some of the most powerful people of the world work hard to get us closer.

It's just a joke about how weird human culture is. I wonder how you infer anything about me as a person because of one silly joke? Only super weird people can notice weird cultural things and make jokes about it? Genuinely curious about your reasoning here.

To me its much weirder that it's normalized to drink baby milk from another species, to the point that it seems completely normal, but each to their own.

It's crazy how many people have never been weaned

But could the average hunter still hunt without the help of modern technology? Those who are entirely unable to do so are obviously not apex predators.

A lion can hunt any day without relying on a rifle, the vast majority of hunters could not.

So if you are smart enough to develop ranged weapons

Hunters that can build their own bows or spears and are able to hunt with them are genuine apex predators, that's fair.

Those who are completely reliant on industrially produced high tech firearms bought in a store, and would be outcompeted by any house cat without them, are not.

So apex that even hunters need firearms because they're not fit enough to hunt without them nowadays, and unable to improvise and use self made weapons like the og hunters did.

I guess people that drive a forklift are "apex powerlifters" too.

They just know people will buy the meat no matter how much the animals were abused so why would they bother? Even those who see themselves as animal lovers happily look the other way with every purchase. The industry has all the incentives to be exceptionally cruel so of course it is.

Most of the stories posted on large subreddits were imaginary anyway. Now they are just being hallucinated by an AI. Is there much of a difference?

It is absurd, and complicit at this point. I think most people who are informed about what's happening in Gaza would agree on this. But it's not much of a topic in public discourse here and quite a few people still believe that the IDF is fighting against terrorists, so there's not enough pressure against this. Especially amongst the conservatives.

If trump knew he was going to die he'd probably claim that he was poisoned by the democrats to at least see some more violence committed for him.

I don't think the official one is gonna be bad by any means. They will probably fix the biggest flaws with hindsight and modernize the graphics, and it will be a big improvement over the original if everything goes right.

But ultimately they had deadlines to meet and many more games in the pipeline, whilst the Skyblivion team can work on everything for as long as it takes, experiment much more and put as much detail and soul into everything as they want. I think that will make a difference, but both will be good games.

Offering at least one option that don't include factory farmed food, that caused a lot of animal suffering in it's production, should be the bare minimum.

"When I specifically go to a restaurant run by animal lovers and I can't even get any dead animals from them, you shouldn't be able to get food that didn't harm animals in any restaurant!"

Wow. I guess there really are people who want to make it even harder to avoid causing cruelty, for no reason... Just why?

Skyblivion (the fan remake) will probably have much more attention to detail and will also release this year, after over 10 years of development. The dev log videos look amazing. I'd be very surprised if the official remake is as good.
