My headcanon is that the Old Testament was a god specifically of the Jews and some upstart god took over (possibly after murdering him) in the New Testament days and then proceeded to spread his influence to non-jewish people while aggressively eliminating any opposition. Wherease in the old days people believed in various gods, this one started of campaign of montheism, depriving the rest of them of faith and eliminating them one by one. Nowadays he’s kicking and screaming because the rise of atheism in many parts of the world which used to be his strongold is depriving him of energy and thus he finally faces annihilation.

Klear ,

Indeed. The headcanon part is the whole hijacking part.

Truth be told, it makes perfect sense for religions as a whole following some type of evolutionary path and that a religion that actively tries to eliminate other faith would be one to eventually gain dominance. I’m more surprised that it seems to have happened fairly late and perhaps just once? There’s probably others similar to the judeo-christian tradition that ended up falling short of their conquest, but still.

Please provide evidence for Caesar.

Historians pretty much agree that Jesus was a historical figure, even though heavily fictionalised.

This reminds me of an exhibiton I once saw called “No Pain, No Game”. The idea being that any sort of game has some failure state, some obstacle to overcome, that’s what makes it a game. So of course I started thinking of counter-examples. Your slot machine idea is a good one, what I eventually came up with is Cookie Clicker. That game is nothing but positive reinforcement. There’s no way to lose progress or mess anything up, any action you take makes you “win more”. Not taking an action also makes you “win more”, just more slowly.

This showerthought is an idea adjacent to that all. Interesting stuff, even though it’s not too deep.

I’m pretty sure cookie clicker has no victory condition, it just goes on and on. At least it was that way last time I played it. Things might have changed since.

Klear ,

Yup. I know a bit of German, but that doesn’t help with the buffalos at all.

bill!

Nope, this was real.

Source? Some of these were real, but there’s also a ton of fake bullshit floating around.

And started by fighting for it with a gun in his hands.

With an OTG connector you can just plug a keyboard into your phone. You can do stuff like alt-tab to switch between open apps. And if you plug in a mouse, a giant cursor appears. It’s kinda cursed but it works.

Just try to do good when you inevitably get elected, please.

He is unruly and therefore cannot be ruled. To steer him would be to court death.

I would be jealous, if I didn’t have one that’s just as majestic as this one.

Klear ,

Mine is a far cry from being able to anything ultra.

Klear ,

Obviously. Because that’s the time all the people who want to avoid the congestion call.

I don’t know what a potato is. Never heard of it.

Probably just built by a crooked man. That happens.

Neutrinos: The inscrutable “ghost particles” driving scientists crazy (arstechnica.com)

We haven’t pinned down the masses of any individual neutrino, and we don’t even know which ones are heavier than the others. When it comes to our ability to collect raw data, neutrinos present a triple threat: they’re incredibly lightweight (even the electron weighs over 5 million times more than all the neutrinos...

And you could plug in your joystick into the soundcard, because where else would you put joystick, right? Perfectly logical.

Washington man arrested after fatally shooting teen who had BB gun (www.usatoday.com)

Myers, who says he’s a licensed security guard, was sitting in his car Wednesday to conduct “overwatch” while his son trains because “he has seen numerous crimes occur” in the parking lot, according to the probable cause statement....

Also important to note the difference between all varieties of nuts and acorns, which are natural predators of gun nuts.

Nice. I envy you.

Damn, I haven’t realised this shit has been going for 10 years already =/

The most underappreciated voice actor.

Get Pistol Whip. The whole idea was to make hybrid between Beat Saber and SUPERHOT and it’s so much more than the sum of its parts. And it’s still getting updated. A new (free) expansion just dropped yesterday. And then there are the custom songs that are only just getting started…

I’ve been playing it daily for years now. Definitely my favourite VR game.

Klear ,

Yeah, I’m not against sequels in principle. Sometimes I just want to have another trip to whichever world the movie takes place. Barbie though… I love that movie, but I really don’t see any way to make any sort of sequel and have it be good.
