Not to be annoying, but can someone please ELI5 how kernel level anti-cheat software actually works, or link good resources where I can read about it.

I really think it all boils down to the regressive thought prison that permeates religious culture, and anything that is adjacent to it. Asmongold himself has stated on many occasions that he was raised in a Roman Catholic environment even though he personally rebelled against it.

However, when everyone you are around in society still uses the same flawed logic pathways, lacks critical thinking skills, and perpetuates the hegemonic in-group dynamics that surround that religious world-view you are still personally psychologically affected by it even if you don’t subscribe to the religious component of it.

That’s the even more nefarious, pernicious, and hidden damage caused by promulgating religious culture is that it makes being willfully ignorant not only permissable, but REQUIRED in order to conform to the group identity. I can see how that influence has literally broken his brain in ways he appears to not even be consciously aware of yet.

We’ll see if this wakes him up, or drives him further into his echo-chamber in an attempt to avoid the painful process of overcoming cognitive dissonance. Only time will tell, but I will admit the deck is stacked against him when he has such a massive financial incentive to resist developing a more mature, nuanced worldview.

Personally I think he actually wants to be a decent person deep down, but the environment he built for himself has led to a self-reinforcing manifestation of the macro-scale social problems that are plaguing young men in this generation. For that reason I don’t hate Asmongold because I believe he is still reachable, and has the opportunity to have a moral arc that could potentially help a lot of people if he was willing to do the work of real self-actualization.

You don’t. The answer is always, without exception, going to be violence in the long term. It is the only permanent equalizer that is able to forcibly impose large scale social reorientation. At the most basic level the social order of government systems, regardless of form, are an agreement about who controls the monopoly on the use of violence. Given where we are currently at as a culture I don’t think that bodes well for the future because we are treading a very thin line with giving inmates control of the asylum.

I think I’m good on that, but you do you m8.

I wanted to use 4chan

I am relatively confident that you are one of the first people to ever type that sentence out.

All of the legal costs associated with appeals I would assume.

Oh man, I swear I saw the weight from a Kusarigama. I have been waiting with baited breath for another game to deploy my favorite weapon from Nioh. I’m extremely hyped for this. I hope they introduce some more RPG-ish elements too.

There’s always money to spend on profiting from human suffering in this country. If you think there won’t be a cottage industry that springs up around bounty hunting illegal immigrants if that was to become legal then you need a better imagination.

Let me ask you a nuanced question:

What type of punishment would you be in favor of for high level cartel members who have significant pull with prison gangs in the US?

If I put it another way. Are you okay with the type of supermax confinement that El Chapo is under at the moment as an example?

I’m asking because this is something that I personally wrestle with as I think it is a gray area within my own ethical boundaries as they relate to human rights.

Underrated comment.

I ain’t going out without a fight. I guaran-fucking-tee you that.

Even if they learned exactly like humans do, like so fucking what, right!? Humans have to pay EXORBITANT fees for higher education in this country. Arguing that your bot gets socialized education before the people do is fucking absurd.

I think you mean teXas 😂

I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself…

I don’t know, and honestly I’m a little afraid to look it up…

You are exactly correct.

This is my number one pick as well. Just keep it the fuck away from Disney.

I was just thinking about Splinter Cell the other day. It’s crazy how every single third person game turned into a “souls-like”. It seems like we used to get such better diversity in game genres.

Don’t forget Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 3.
