Anyone else have the same thoughts on the election?

(Only the first 3:30 is relevant)

My summary of the video:

  • A Harris presidency will allow the empire to continue to function smoothly. As a result, more harm will be caused towards the global south.
  • A Trump presidency will cause less harm outside the US solely because Trump is incompetent and surround himself with incompetent people. However, life will be worse within the US due to the empire being dysfunctional, also the conservative social policies.
  • So for the lives of Americans, Harris is better.
  • For everyone else, Trump is better.

I'm asking because I don't recall seeing a lot of people with this take and this has been my take for years.

I should clarify that I am from the global south. And I don't agree with everything in the video, in particular the part where he said Americans should suffer because of the suffering the US brought to its victims. I don't see the vast majority of Americans having any control on its foreign policy, so I don't think they should be punished for it. Also, I know it's 100% hitler vs 100% hitler, both are equally bad, I agree, just that they are slightly different variants of hitlers.

Ukrainian troops are in trouble in the eastern front, outnumbered 5 to 1 in some areas
  • Of course. They threw their best troops in the Kursk direction, they aren't Ukraine's priority at the moment. Maybe Ukraine thought their advances there would draw Russian troops away and relieve pressure from the east but from what I've heard, the Russians are prepared to lose some more ground in Kursk if that means taking Pakrovsk. Neither side is moving their troops and just lets the other side continue to advance. Bizzare, really.

  • LLMs in general have a context window length. While the platform likely appends some meta/summary in it. The AI at most only remembers what he said a few hundred lines ago.

  • Sunday is Gaming Day: what are you playing thread
  • Been playing Rimworld for the last week too. Yeah, given how rediculous the pricing is and how easy it is to pirate DLCs, I'm also rocking the base game + pirated DLC combo.

    (For those who don't know, download a pirated copy of the latest version, copy over the DLCs in the data folder, edit out the line with SteamID in each of the DLC's about.xml)

    Thoughts on the new DLC? I'm not too interested in the theme so I haven't bothered to pirate it yet. Watched a playthrough, seems like something you either commit a run into it or not touch it at all. It's like a story DLC instead of a gameplay mechanics focused one.

  • I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods
    • Favorites (13)
    • Hall of honor (1)
    • Local Multiplayer (6)
    • Trash Bin (11)

    (Hall of honor as of now contains "Brothers: A tale of two sons", game brought me to tears so I created the category, shoved it in there and never played it again.)

  • Check-In Thread: How Are You Doing, Comrade?
  • Just lost my job. Though I think it's a blessing in disguise. Last few months at work feels like I'm slowly killing myself. Going to take a month of rest or two, work on those personal game projects I never had time to complete, do some art, go out and meet some old friends. Saved up enough cash so I'm not too worried about the immediate future, but finding another job will suuuuuck.

  • Breaking: Weebs continue having the worst opinions, being dumb as rocks
  • Wow, never knew this. Always just thought MTL was a pretty practical "stop-gap solution" so you can having something readable early and at least understand some of it before someone does a "real translation". What's their reasoning?
