  • Oooo I think the analogy is a Little off. Just because of the way I interpreted why they said that in the first place.

    I think it was said because they are expressing that the nudes are as impersonal as possible, not to say look I deidentified myself. In my case (if I’m right, maybe I’m not) it’s a good faith argument to say see, I’m not trying to connect with someone I’m trying to have a business transaction, so comparing it to what wearing a disguise accomplishes in cheating isnt accurate.

    Again, that’s only based on my interpretation of why op added that bit




  • So I like roguelikes that have a sense of progression in them, it’s hard to play something over and over and the only satisfaction they give out is “you went farther then before, here’s some xo and coins”

    It seems like it has base building and an organic sense of progression within a run, both make it appeal to me. But I’m just unsure of what I get out of putting 2 to 12 hours into a run and seeing it all be for naught when I die.

    The tension and high stakes also appeal to me, fwiw. I’m not saying I shouldn’t care about what I do in the game, I just want there to be something in it for me at the end.

    Is the macro gameplay loop more than just getting better at the game so you can survive longer?



  • Brick Immortar - does very neutral, safety oriented breakdowns of maritime disasters (mostly) I love his narration, he speaks with a ton of authority imo and I find all the procedures and rules of ships fascinating.

    Animagrafs - modern marvels but shorter and on 1 topic. Extremely professional animations of big ass machines. He just did one on Big Boy steam locomotives and it was amazing to see the systems work.

    The Squidd - does video essays on famous cars and their histories

    Game makers tool kit - following his journey of learning game development

    History of the entire universe - incredible free documentaries about the deepest and craziest topics about our universe and reality. I listen to them to sleep

    Marcus house - following along with space progress, specifically starship.

    No clip - video game documentaries

    People make games - interesting stories about gaming, very professional deep dive stuff (Roblox is the devil)

    Regular Car Reviews - bizarre car reviews with a goofy narrator who makes a ton of literary references I think he used to be a teacher

    Secret Base - sports stat nerds (watch their scoragami and worst NFL punt videos)

    Technology connections - learn how genius some of our everyday inventions really are

    Zack Freedman - ADHD tech maker 3d printing nerd
