  • Votes should absolutely be public. They were on KBin, and it made people more civil for it because you could be shamed if you were dislike trolling or liking all of your own posts/comments to make them look better (which is something you actively have to do on here, unlike Reddit).

    Given this place is pseudo-anonymous anyways, and people comment far more personal and identifiable info here anyways (which tbf you should be careful about), I think public votes would do much more good than harm.



  • To be fair to the developers, they do elaborate a little further in the comments:

    Hey everyone, We appreciate the sudden enthusiasm for our game. When we launched it in 2015 into early access and 2016 into full, we were at the vanguard of asymmetrical games. It was exciting, but it was also our first step down the Dunning Kruger curve. QL has bugs that we cannot fix, shaky net code and overall sloppy design. We left the game up for this long so that players who had friends that wanted to play, could still get a copy. However it has been 9 years with minimal to no activity. So we felt it was right to remove it now.

    I don’t know enough about this game or it’s community to comment much, but the devs don’t seem to be bad guys - seems like a story of naive developers making a mistake, but doing their best for their community with what they had. For a niche online game with no DLCs, 9 years is hardly a bad run.








  • The goals of the war being?..

    Oh right, the destruction of every non-Israeli living in Gaza.

    • Why else would they go after Hospitals treating innocent Palestinian victims?

    • Why else would they spend months and months denying any and all foreign aid to Gaza after cutting them off from all food, water, and electricity?

    • Why else would they airstrike clearly marked aid convoys for Gaza going along a pre-agreed route?

    • Why else would members of the IDF record thselves killing innocent Palestinians?

    • Why else would they oppose any and all peace deals, and openly plot to betray any and all ceasefires?

    Israel has killed more than 30,000 innocent people. You can’t just call that collateral or even callous disregard, it’s mass murder, a genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

    Hamas are not good guys by any stretch, but if you’re being morally high-grounded by a terrorist organisation, then you ought to know which side of history you’re on.

    Edit: Israeli not Israelite

    At the time I got my current system, I did 1tb SSD for the main, and a 4tb HDD for data drive.

    For my next system, I think I’ll split that a bit more evenly, as most of my games end up on the HDD which means they a bit to load




  • I agree on them being safe - when rules are properly adhered to, they’re extremely safe, similarly to air travel. People only suspect their safety because when they do fail, they tend to fail spectacularly, again similar to air travel.

    Having said that, they may be efficient to operate, but they are by no means efficient to build. They cost a lot of resources, and have a 10 year lead time - plus you need to worry about the cost of waste storage and decommissioning.

    So sure, nuclear is better than fossil fuels, but you’re just kicking the nonrenewable can down the road.

    That time and resources would be far better spent on renewables, because that where humanity is gonna have to go long-term no matter how well any other alternatives work.
