<p>>>>There was about 50 different origin conspiracies.<p>50 bat species?<p>>>>Vaccine absolutely was proven to work<p>There were at least couple of vaccines.Yeah they worked - some % died from complications of blood clotting...<p>>>>Lockdowns absolutely slowed the spread of COVID to allow the hospital systems to rationalise the limited PPE.<p>BS! Hospitals stopped to work - except for emergency situations. I had a surgery that had to be postponed for couple of years. The backlog from covid took years to clear up.<p>There were some revelations to me because of covid:
1. Majority of people appears to be unable to think by themselves.
2. The absolute stupidity and greed among officials - especially WHO was hilarious.
3. People here parrot "official" texts, that were fabricated in anticipation of mass panic or covering their asses. None of that has anything to do with covid and actual history of events.</p>

<p>1. Lol. The virus was related to bats that live 1000 miles from Wuhan.
 The main issue is that China lied when people already were dead from Covid.<p>2. Vaccines were completelly ineffective. Virus adapted much faster and became less lethal - as expected. Or rather immunity of organism of people stopped overreact to something that was never lethal, unless you had no immunity.
Sweden is top example of how to deal with covid by doing nothing. My home country vaccinated over 80% population and had the highest fatality rate per population from blood clots mainly. Corruption kills people.<p>3. Lockdowns were too late. Because of China. Lockdowns for various reasons did not work - healthy looking people were spreading covid for months before and during lockdown - it seems that you still do not realize that major part of people got through covid without life threatening complications.</p>

<p>Terrorism comes from word terror - it is use of violence to impose terrorist goals. Usually political.
The fact that they have chosen as a target police is just return to classical terrorism that existed 100+ years ago. Targeting innocents by taking hostages, 911 or blowing up cooker are quite recent developments for terrorist activities. What was your definition for terrorism?</p>

<p>To oppose goverment, you need:
* Mass support of folks that recognize you as government and not the "oppressive" government.<p>Simply stating that government is oppressive does not qualify. 
Do you actually recognize those people in this article? Are they opposing government on your behalf? Have you mandated them to oppose government... that you elected? Do you have judges that have different opinion on this case?<p>The whole discussion and article  about this topic seems to be oblivious on these very basic legal issues.</p>

<p>The constitution is fine. The main issue is about definition of oppression that is shifted by Left. And can I point the dissonance here as you seem to not get it - you want to overthrow "oppression"... and AT THE SAME TIME complain that "opressive" government has unfair laws against you? If you do not succeed at overthrowing "oppression", expect to be punished like losers, as state has monopoly on violence and is free to punish harshly those that challenge that monopoly.</p>

<p>>>>It is also possible to terraform Venus, although much more difficult than for Mars.<p>I would argue that it is very much opposite. Venus has already 80% mass of Earth. Mars on other hand have not much different gravity than that of Moon and Moon is much closer to Earth if you plan to make something suitable for older folks that look for lighter gravity.</p>

<p>No. Most of that is co2. There are a lot of comets that can deliver ice(of water), but if that is a solution then that works for Venus as well.</p>

<p>True... I had to look if wiki has some new information, but no - as expected it is frozen ice of co2 and not h2o.  Getting that h from somewhere to make water is still going to be an issue on Mars.</p>

<p>But there is dualism in our minds - we have two spheres of brains and one of those is in master position over other and synchronize both parts. As a result the enslaved part of our brains is silent watcher. But sometimes brains get damaged and these mechanisms malfunction.</p>

<p>There is nothing wrong on blaming individuals. The blame is not on what they are doing but what they are not doing and that is not becoming organized.<p>PS I for one do not blame anyone. If you enjoy something - that is not going to last forever.</p>

<p>I really disliked Quake when it came out. Aestetically it was not pleasing and graphically even step back to DOOM2 imo.
But there were players that had different views and played it... also probably they had shooter genre in higher priority while it was not on my top genre list - after racing, rpg and strategy games.</p>

<p>I can't seriously regard Skyrim as RPG - it is simulation of RPG - visually pleasing, but no challenging enough. Too much loot in Bethesda games is really killing RPG vibe for me.<p>Yes there are some rpg games coming out... and I have played some of them and I can understand why I would also declare that RPG genre has died, because many of them are resurrected corpses of older games and are not bringing fresh ideas of their own. It can leave impressions of those who have never experienced previous era of rpg games. But then again I have no experience of even older era of first rpgs and might have similar opinion about games I enjoyed.<p>I have library of Wizardry games and I think I snatched that remake as well - I've only played Wizardry 8 and realized that it was different and worth exploring.</p>

<p>You clearly have a different understanding for meaning of the words and what is meant by them.<p>Look, there is no depth in Fortnite, just like there is no deepness in minds of kids that are under 10 and playing it.<p>Same for other points. Fortnite is arcade shooter - no one is expecting from it realistic mechanics, which would also ruin the game. Fortnite is a niche and it was kids game - some of them have grown up and moved on.</p>

<p>I was so looking for this type of comment.<p>There is no survivor bias, you [insert insult]!<p>So many of those games were really bad even at their time. BUT YOU CAN STILL PLAY THEM. I've tossed many games out of my catalogue and for some I wished they vanish from existence and they all have survived!<p>While article is recycling narrative - it has a reason, but your recycled opinion is not only wrong but has no reason other than lowkey nitpick article.</p>

<p>CS was 3D shooter and not a DOS game - quite important distinction as it gave better(and nonpixelating) graphic. Pre 1.6 CS had many modifications already - frankly I stopped playing CS before 1.6 and had my fun.</p>

<p>The article is not radiating original narrative and some mistakes can be made, but it is missing very big issue that modern game developers are able to solve with live games. All the old games became popular because they were heavily pirated. Sometimes that was the only reason. Up till 2010s I only played pirated games - even when they were on steam. The only reason why some of those games are in my steam/gog account now is because I had played those games as pirated copies. Not all of them were good games, though, but at least I can launch them and try again.</p>
