    A communist isn’t a tankie per sé. Tankies are people who blindly follow authoritarians of a communist regime and defend/deny the gruesome acts committed by said authoritarians. The idea behind communism is a valid one. In a perfect world, communism would lead to the star Trek utopia. Problem is, assholes will always take advantage and turn everything to shit. I still prefer communism over the heap of flaming shit most of the world lives in.


  • Not really. People stop analyzing problems via critical thinking because things are becoming too convenient. Just look at social media. It’s so easy to access information, people stop analyzing the data and blindly believe things that they’re fed via the algorithms. These algorithms highly favor controversial material because it boosts visibility of ads. This wasn’t always the case. It became this way because it’s an easy way to make money. Now that money isn’t enough, it’s abused for political power.

    For now LLMs might seem like a good tool, but if people lose the ability to do their own research, what stops them from believing just about anything an LLM bot tells them? Remember how grok turned into a Nazi bot? That wasn’t very long ago…

    It just takes one generation to completely lose this ability. Don’t take it so lightly please. At least try to keep yourself mentally aware of potential problems with tech. Especially since almost all of the tech is owned by Nazi cunts.

    People I like aren’t billionaires and billionaires aren’t people. They’re what’s wrong with humanity at this point in time. If there’s a better way of getting rid of them, I’m all for it. But I’m not seeing any billionaires put to jail…


  • They’re all the same and most of their answers are complete horseshit. Don’t give in to this shit, it makes you lose your ability to discern truth from lies. It’s just another tool to turn people into mindless, propaganda-gobbling zombies.

    Anyhow, if you want quick photos that look good without additional editing, then phones are likely your best bet. I’m not aware of compact cameras that have the kind of computing power and enhancement algorithms on board. I don’t like the kind of photos iPhones makez but you’ll fool most people with the pictures you take on an iPhone. There are also quite a few good android phones.

    Mirrorless cameras are the way to go if you want to change lenses but that’ll be way over the budget you set yourself. Even the a6400 costs a small fortune when paired with a good lens or two, and that’s really the beginner’s segment. Then you need good software for developing the raw photos and that’s a hobby itself.






  • Ok, that sucks of course. Going in with a completely different expectation will ruin it for sure!

    It’s a CRPG, which is like a computer version of a pen and paper rpg. In this case it heavily relies on character development. The game changes significantly according to the choices you make. Not just dialog wise but also stat wise. Games like Skyrim barely pass for an rpg tbh. It’s an action game with a stat system bolted on. I like those too, but they’re completely incomparable imo.
