well no, there just arent any wind turbines as far as I remember. No solar either

I mean, theres geothermal

Satisfactory is a weird game where coal and oil are renewable, but trees, as far as I’m aware, are not.

Not authentic then, like why a replica of a classic car isn’t valued as much as an original one even if you built it to the exact same design schematics.

only in dentists dreams do children vote for toothpaste

Not really a fan of anime tho tbh, not my thing

The first bit of that is exactly what I was trying to say, indeed almost exactly the same as an example I considered giving but didn’t to avoid extra length, so we’re in agreement there.

The second, though, I think misses that there is a distinction between physical possibility and practical ability. In theory, it breaks no physical laws for me to become richer than Jeff Bezos by the end of next year. In practice, though, the fact that most pathways to achieving that level of wealth, especially quickly, involve a whole lot of luck on very low likelihood (but not impossible events), means that there is probably no sequence of actions that I can actively decide to take that stand any reasonable chance of me achieving it. There are technically sequences like “buy a lot of winning lottery tickets in a row” that might do it, but because they rely on abilities I don’t have (like knowing which tickets win in advance), I can’t actually attempt to take those paths.

Maybe, I suspect we’re just disagree on semantics without much meaningful difference, but I guess a simpler way of putting what I was saying is more “if you think that the “means” aren’t justified by the “ends” when all is said and done, then you haven’t actually achieved the “ends” at all, so if they would have been a good thing or not is now a moot point.”

I’ve always thought arguments about “do the ends justify the means”, or the somewhat rarer reverse form of “is x the right thing to do regardless of the consequences it has”, to be a bit of a false distinction. The means are part of the ends, and achieving some goal is the entire reason to take or not take any action. If you wish to achieve a certain end state, whatever state you end up with in the attempt includes the consequences of whatever you did to get there. If those consequences result in an end state that you find undesirable, then it doesn’t mean that your desired end state is actually bad, it means that what you desired is unachievable via that path. If you can’t find an end state that is likely to equal what you desire once those consequences are included in it, then it may just be that what you want is something that you are unable to achieve.

Ive been varying my drawings a bit recently, but I mostly draw vore (not very well, but still), its a bit of a meme in that community that vore artists draw mouths and teeth with more detail than the rest of a character even without meaning to

for me that would be the teeth, considering what I draw. That being said, the stuff I actually show family tends to be things like fish, that dont really have anything like that to notice

This is why I keep one or two “normal” drawings saved to my phone

Sounds like this guy needs to back where he came from, and back where he was before he came there too, and so on and so forth until he ends up back at elementary school history class.

So by this logic, twitter is a roblox game?

Sweden in general seems to have way more good game dev companies than most countries, especially most of similar size. I kinda wonder why.

I am genuinely surprised Europe has so few, given how much I’ve seen Eurofurence mentioned on my social timelines whenever that one approaches. I suppose that’s the only European one I really hear about, but still, the impression I got was that there were a fair few people in Europe that would go to one.

It’s one some people who both identify as aromantic and asexual use. I’ve seen some people who prefer it to using the flags for both of those things separately because they preferred to think of their orientation as a singular thing rather than breaking it down into sexual and romantic attraction, though not everyone that uses it rather than both the ace and aro flags it does so for that reason.

Step 1: create a new instance of some platform, so as to be able to repost without moderation issues

Step 2: set up bot to repost 8 billion times

Step 3: Rawr!

This must be what that one cop was afraid of

I have, that was how I heard about them in the first place actually
