Hey everybody, this kid is just now realizing that the language people use reflects the world they live in!

Like it or not, we inherited a world where most professions were and still are occupied by males.

Honestly, you would get a lot more respect if you took a play out of the ‘worker male’ playbook and didn’t complain about every little thing that makes you slightly uncomfortable. Over time, people would stop treating you differently because you’re not acting different.

I don’t want macbook-build quality anything.

It’s like buying an extremely expensive prop that was only meant to be used in movies and breaks if it’s used for anything else for a substantial amount of time.

That’s because they don’t want to.

We like to think life in America is so much better than that in Cuba, but have you tried being poor in America?

He’s the one throwing a tantrum and calling me names because I don’t like what he likes.

I’m guessing you’re taking his side because you also have low standards. I see it all the time and don’t expect more at this point.

Weird, you’re overcomplicating things and receiving a worse experience as a result.

Just use ublock origin or adnauseam. Make sure you update/enable all of the blocklists in the settings.

Before you upgrade, see how much you’re utilizing swap space.

Type free into a terminal to see this.

If you don’t see swap space, or if it looks under-utilized, you can increase the capacity and how much it’s used.

See how much it’s used with cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness. 60 is the default, anything less than that means swap space isn’t being used as often, anything greater means it’s being used more often.

I recommend just asking AI on how to increase swap space if what you see is not enough.

It’s the consumer bandwagon.

We shall see.

Use a VPN. Here’s a free one: https://riseup.net/en/vpn

Go to a torrent site, such as https://1337x.to/

Search the movie you want, find a torrent that suits you.

Download and watch.

Here’s a free streaming site: https://hydrahd.sh/

You may have to go through the uBlock Origin settings and add/update all the blocklists.

That’s fair. I think a hybrid solution of owning/streaming is best.

Free streaming sites are the easiest way to watch something and we should be recommending them more often.

Even better, if it supports LAN you can torrent it and with friends for free with a program such as Hamachi.

Yes.

In the original version of Oblivion, they run like they do in Morrowind.

It was until Skyrim that Bethesda properly implemented partially turning the character when running sideways or diagonally.

Pretty sure your concept is flawed from the start.

It might sound nice as a ‘what-if’ scenario, but as soon as you get into any of the details, it falls apart and hopefully shows us why games and stories are typically focused on the people doing something.

Now, if you want something a bit more likely to succeed, you can make a “Damsel in Distress Simulator.” From the get-go, you can start to think of gameplay mechanics like combing your hair, talking with guards, taking care of birds, etc etc. The ideas just flow, instead of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.

In fact, this could loop around to your idea of helping the rescuers by opening up opportunities for the princess to sabotage her captors. You can have a Majora’s Mask-like timer which keeps track of how far the knight is from saving you.

Seriously.

Aren’t there enough PVP games that center around rewarding whoever puts more time into the game?

You should have an adblocker like ublock origin or Adnauseam installed.

Dunning-kruger effect on full display right here.

This guy thinks he knows so much, yet doesn’t even know about adblockers. Sad.

As for thr PC, automatically turning the player is honestly a bad idea in first person. It can be disorienting for some palyers.

I’m referring to 3rd person. You can’t see the character model in first person.

NPCs don’t have a camera following them, so they can’t run in a different direction than what it’s facing.
