I’ve done two full playthroughs of the game (plus dlc), one on the standard difficulty and one on hard. I can confirm that many of the game’s systems are rendered unnecessary by the easier difficulty. I really enjoyed my second playthrough and would definitely recommend.

However, if you don’t think you’ll enjoy that (having to plan and work for every advantage to be able to succeed) I would wholeheartedly endorse the easier levels. The story and quest design alone are worth the price of admission! Side quests in this game make many other games main story pale in comparison.

Allow me to explain my down vote: suggesting a subreddit to cross post to on Lemmy is a display of bad form

From what I understand, this allows arbitrary command execution. So, an attacker can specify a string of text that something on the affected system will just plop into a command line and execute.

No longer being able to hide your public posts from specific users seems hardly immaterial to me.

Honestly I feel like it’s time to create some consequences for rich people

The pain of self repression against the potential pain of self expression

Wait, are you saying people would lie on 4chan???

But seriously, yeah, people don’t seem to realize that people tend to want to pick the path of least resistance. If someone really is trans I have to believe it’s because who they are is so at odds with the expectations of society.

Edit: added a qualification because I am not trans

There’s a know your meme about it: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/saddam-husseins-hiding-place

I’ve often joked that Jesus didn’t redeem humans in the eyes of God, he redeemed the Hebrew god in the eyes of western culture.

As an ex-christian, the most un-christlike behavior is often espoused by Christians.

And the reason God couldn’t have just put conscious souls directly in paradise is because shut up, that’s why

That’s my understanding as well. So since I don’t see anyone else saying this in detail here goes:

I am not a biologist or a medical professional, but this is my understanding of the process.

The human body does not monitor blood oxygen levels. When you or I hold our breath, the feeling of urgent discomfort we feel is due to a rise in the carbon dioxide (more specifically the carbonic acid) in our blood. Inhaling pure nitrogen will still allow CO2 to exit the bloodstream, so if someone is not made aware of the fact that they are breathing pure nitrogen, they won’t even know they are dying.

This person knew they were being executed, which I can only imagine induced a ton of stress and anxiety, yes. However, if you were to tell me that I was being executed tomorrow but I could pick which of the methods currently employed in the US I would be killed by, this would be at the top of the list.

If you want to argue that executing people is morally wrong and we should stop, sure, let’s have that discussion. However, we don’t need to characterize this method as more inhumane than others to do so.

Buy a gun, I guess?

When all the infrastructure is gone, let the user decide between starving and eating shit.

Is there an angry upvote on Lemmy yet?

Not trying to be contrarian or a smart-ass, but aren’t water cooled systems kinda just air cooled systems with the radiator moved elsewhere?
