    Creatives vs. Engineers

    Interesting this has been necro’d now that server meshing has debuted. I’d love to hear analysis of the nascent capability from real coders. How should we regard what we’ve been shown about the evolution of online gaming? Is meshing going to work?

    The Fall of the Mouse of Usher

    So, back to our original thesis concerning the fall of the Mouse, and other cultural icons—the heavy guns have been brought to the battlefield. That’s right, South Park has raised its sights on KK, and the death of the Mouse is nigh...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    Several people have pursued me on this issue both inside and outside this forum and asked for a more complete answer. IMHO, there is really only one last point to be made on this issue. There is no evidence that satisfying disturbed people through pandering to their delusions is helpful. All of...

    Pyro will be playable at Citizencon

    So has anyone seen whether the ship tractors are active in the current 3.21 on ships like the 3.15P?

    No, I was thanking you, CRISS9000 for the post. It’s an enlightening vid.

    Zeus II

    Much thanks to Chrisss for this vid above. So, what is the ST? Here’s me hoping again it’s a stealth recon version. The ship comes in with lowish EM and IR on erkul. The forth variant perhaps has reduced RCS? And I’m hoping for tubes. Richard noted tubes aren’t the best for a hunter, but tubes...

    Zeus II

    No one has said it and it matters. Zeus looks awesome. It’s just a really pretty ship.

    Zeus II

    I didn’t spot anything stipulating how many variants there will be. One supposes the snare and dampener are one variant only. So what else should we expect? This is the perfect shape and size for a stealth recon scout with some torp capability. 3XS7 tubes and limited stealth would make this a...

    Likewise, The Daily Wire has announced their own Snow White project. On supposed they’re going for a trad take since they are about the last thing from woke. So yeah. The culture wars are heating up.

    You can pretend and virtue signal all you like but I think it’s pretty obvious you have no concern for truth. So I repeat, there is nowhere for this conversation to go. You have outted yourself. Without an interest in truth, this is futile. Someday you may wake and realize the truth. You cannot...

    Minorities do not scare me. People who think they can at a whim, redefine reality in such a way as to enable predators in women’s bathrooms scare me. People who take no adult responsibilities in life who think they should stipulate to others their delusions scare me. People who prey upon others...

    I think there’s a great deal more insidious here than you suspect. Why is it the woke generation is in all things vastly more uneducated and ignorant? Surely it’s by design. Kids do not learn history for very specific reasons. I could buy this notion that woke is just the latest iteration of...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    You don’t need to agree to disagree. Anakin was obviously there to extend the character arc of Ahsoka. You need to be neck deep in your own shit to think a ghost needs a character arc. The ghost was there to provide the necessary mechanism for Ahsoka’s development, in exactly the same sort of...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Well, the series was written by Filoni and Lucas. I don’t think the writer’s guild has much to do with it. One review made an excellent case that those who liked Rebels seemed to love it and those who hadn’t bothered with Rebels seemed to have criticized it on superficial grounds. That appears...

    I didn’t use the term “fascism” because most people don’t know what it means. It’s one sort of authoritarianism that arises through a malignant cooperation between corporations and government. I think instead it’s better to talk about the broader category of authoritarianism, and how that...

    Okay so now I understand your observation a little better. So let me back up. Farther back into antiquity than we can trace Western Civilization, we can see this tension between two world views: tragic and utopian. The Utopian world view is where we get Marxism. I’m sure you can make the...
