He/him
Looking through your past comments on Lemmy the only other thing I can see is this:
I wish there was some feature in the works to let me see less memes and US politics without having to block or subscribe to a bunch of communities.
You’re just not interested in doing anything at all for yourself, huh? You just want to sit there and mindlessly consume whatever shows up in front of you?
Why do you want to do this? What is your end goal?
If it’s to read a story, there are already more stories in the world than you could hope to read in your entire lifetime. Written by humans, with actual intention behind them, guaranteed to be coherent.
If it’s to create a story, well, you’re not creating anything by having an LLM do it for you.
Since OP isn’t the developer of the game, I don’t see how they could. Also it looks like a paid game.
Uh, are we not currently in a thread specifically talking about an October 7th game or…?
From the linked article:
Fursan al-Aqsa was released in 2022
Calling it “an October 7th game” is a neat little piece of propaganda though. Good job falling for it.
(Edit) Yeah, actually after taking a look at your profile, you’re not the kind of person I want taking up my mental energy.
Do you think Palestine sprung into existence on October 7? Why does every discussion of Israel being genocidal colonizers come down to an incident that happened decades after their oppression of Palestine began?
It has been removed in the EU on behalf of french anti-terrorist authorities. So this is an actual terrorism-concern and not just censorship.
Any support for Palestine is being called “terrorist” these days, so I’d rather make the judgment call for myself.
hey, a fellow linux user. Long-time or recent?
Been using Linux for 20 years.
I don’t even like this genre of game but I bought it (after downloading the demo to make sure it would run under Proton) because fuck this censorship.
(Edit) Just saw a post on Bsky claiming that “if you shoot soldiers who are surrendering, you lose”. Much evil, very terrorism.
I won’t be there, so I don’t care as long as it’s not something bad for the environment.
What do you mean by “real world politics”? Don’t be shy, tell us.
But transgenders and pronouns were never ever a thing in the Dragon Age franchise, and now they suddenly feature these so prominently.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krem_(Dragon_Age)
Every Dragon Age game has had pronouns because that’s how fucking language works. Your brain has just been poisoned by right-wing outrage over “pronouns”.
Also, “transgenders” isn’t a word. “Transgender” is an adjective, not a noun, not that I expect that to mean anything to someone who freaks out about “pronouns”.
This sounds like a plausible thing that actually happened.
Kind of seems like a contradiction
They don’t care. There’s no point in calling conservatives out on hypocrisy. Only a very small number of them will give a shit, and those will be the ones who were already having doubts.
What does this app do?
Holy shit, they remembered Eternal Blue exists.
What do you propose as the solution, then? Without any up-front disclosure of the triggering content being present, how can anybody make the choice whether or not to expose themself to it?
There’s evidence that trigger warnings actually worsen anxiety and are counterproductive
I’d be interested in seeing these studies.
The way to treat anxiety is to face the source of anxiety to try and change your relationship and reaction. The best way to do this is via controlled access that exposes one to the trigger gradually in a context that has no risk of harm (eg a media depiction, discussing the concept, building up to discussing the source of trauma that led to the phobic response if applicable)
Trigger warnings enable active avoidance. This sensitizes one to the aversive stimuli and makes the phobic response stronger. As a result when one encounters the stimulus (eg a friend, family, celebrity etc commits suicide, suffers an eating disorder, etc) your resilience to the trigger is now even lower and the response is more likely to be more significant than it was before.
These two paragraphs seem to contradict each other. Controlled access in a safe setting like a media depiction sounds great. That’s exactly what trigger warnings are for. How can you possibly do controlled exposure without knowing if the content is there or not?
Trigger warnings enable active avoidance.
Incorrect. Trigger warnings inform you that the content is present in the media you’re about to watch. What you do with that information is up to you.
I was reading Matt Parker’s new trigonometry book and they made some remark about triangles in spherical geometry and I went “wait, what if you did this”
They’re not curved; the space they’re embedded in is curved.
It’s never wrong to avoid having children for any reason.
