The Sunday Mag - a look at some Linux stuff on sale and other odds and ends

I finished Life Is Strange - Before the Storm yesterday. I liked it, I recommend it, but... I wish I would have known before it's so much "smaller" (not only by size) than the first game. Well, the downside of being good at avoiding information about games I might play later... ;-)

Quoting: TheSyldatNot exactly feelings more like "in order for you to truly get what kind of psychological harm does society's gearing generates , you need to be in my boots otherwise you're only "fathoming it" but it's just that "fathoming" it's not understanding."
Now that's something I can totally (not sure about the English term) sign. The older I get the more I feel there's thing you won't even remotely fathom/feel until you've actually walked in their boots. (Which sometimes is impossible or unwanted, obviously.)

I get the feeling that a big part of what TheSyldat wants to express are actually feelings, not arguments. This would explain several things, including the piece of art needed or being on TheSyldat's(*) side of the fence. Proper arguments can be understood on any side of a fence, feelings sometimes way less so.

(*) I'm always working around the pronoun here. TheSyldat, is there any of your choice?

Quoting: liamdawe4) a player dropped in front of me, their helicopter backpack never vanished
Heck it didn't vanish for me either (the player in question) and it was still makin' me zippin' around at the heli back pack pace rather than walk. It took you shooting at me and being turned into a goat for me to be able to walk normally :D
What's this goat thing about?!?

Quoting: tuubiWill these people change if he calls me and the majority of the world's population "abusers"? Maybe it's a language barrier thing, but that's a serious accusation where I come from.
Sorry, I honestly don't see where Syldat has done so?
Quoting: TheSyldatYou just illustrated my previous points exactly with that very comment a knee jerk reaction that everybody have when they are told "if you're not LGBTQ then yes like it or not you're part of an overarching group that has been abuser" and somehow this is us classifying you as "an enemy" . No not an ennemy an abuser there is clear distinct difference but apparently you don't know that there is one ...

Quoting: scaineAgain, this isn't about Syldat, but about other people's reaction. Some of these people won't change.
How about letting people talk about what they find interesting? You're free to find something else interesting and talk about that, of course.

I didn't follow the whole thread, but what I wrote about in my last post what what stroke me when I read the last pages of it.

IMHO, it sums up to two easy questions, TheSyldat:
* Do you want people to judge and treat other people (including you) independent of their gender identity?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No
* Are you willing to judge and treat other people independent of their gender identity?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No

Quoting: TheSyldat"if you're not LGBTQ then yes like it or not you're part of an overarching group that has been abuser"
You're putting people into a group, a negative one, based on their gender identity. Which is wrong.
Everybody is fully responsible for his/her/whatever actions - and nobody else's.

Quoting: FeistNice to see some progress at last. Although, I actually hope it takes a month or two more until the full release. I just have too damn much to play right now and I feel I´m buying 3 new games for every single game I finish. :dizzy::D
