Season 4 has been the best so far. They made a lot of improvements to the game. It's the most fun I've had with Diablo 4.
This belongs in c/space. You can move it there if you want. Your choice.
The bodies discovered in a hard-to-reach well near Ensenda were those of the two missing Australians and an American, Baja state prosecutors said, citing identification by family.
What do you want? Do you want to see more posts/comments?
Beehaw is, specifically, curated for those who want high quality rather than a dumpster fire of trolls and assholes.
So, quality vs quantity.
Yeah, critical thinking is an important skill to have. Sadly, there is a very low percentage of people (specifically, in the USA) that have it.
I'm approximating that around 98% of the news media, here in the USA, are biased and/or propaganda. The first year of my university education taught me how to separate fact from opinion. What if you don't go to university? How do you learn critical thinking? I have a college friend that I've known for almost thirty years. He has a masters degree in finance and he is a certified public accountant. However, when it comes to USA politics, he has been completely brainwashed by the media. He is one of those MAGA nut-jobs.
Having second hand accounts of anything is, certainly, unreliable. I wish more people could have, at least, one experience that fell outside of what we know from science. Unbelievably, I've had several of these. I'd say about five that I cannot explain using the best of our scientific knowledge.
I'm sorry you feel that way. I did not intend for anyone to be uncomfortable.
...does this mean that saying “Joe Biden is acting like a fascist autocrat”, is ok, but applying it as a title, as in “Joe Biden the Fascist Autocrat” is not?
In my opinion, yes. However, this is something that I would want to discuss with the other administrators/moderators in order to reach a conclusion.
Name-calling is a form of argument in which insulting or demeaning labels are directed at an individual or group.
Labeling Joe Biden as a 'fascist' is name-calling. Whether or not he is, truly, a fascist is not what is being addressed here.
Beehaw is a space that strives to be(e) nice apart from the thousands of Internet spaces that could care less.
This has nothing to do with FOSS and, therefore, is being removed.
...staff here defend these people from criticism.
Show me where Beehaw staff have defended anyone from criticism.
The subject at hand is name-calling. It is not nice.
The subject that you keep reiterating is current events and politics.
Do you understand the difference?
I have had many years of formal training and education under the umbrella of science and the scientific method. This requires both skepticism and questioning.
When I say that I am open minded about subjects such as NDE, OBE and the like I mean that I'm using the aforementioned.
Obviously, science does not have the answers to everything. Science still questions everything while, at the same time, acknowledges that there is much more to know.
I have had several experiences, so far in life, that I cannot explain using what we know from science. For, at least, the past decade I've felt much more comfortable and inspired with more questions than I have answers.
Science and/or the scientific method is a tool. A tool that has been developed by humans. But that's all that it is.
As with religion, I will not hold science up on a pedestal.
Name-calling is a form of argument in which insulting or demeaning labels are directed at an individual or group.
That's what we, at Beehaw, don't want. It is not nice.
Iceland's Krafla Magma Testbed project aims to transform renewable energy by tapping into a volcano's magma chamber.
This is a 'soft warning' about name-calling. Generally speaking, name-calling isn't nice. Please, be(e) nice when using Beehaw. Thank you.
I read the article and I'm, fairly, open minded about subjects such as this (as well as OBE, NDE, Remote Viewing, etc).
What do you think/feel about this subject in particular?
'Traumatic' just means emotionally distressing. He was disappointed. He wasn't harmed.
You have made a mountain out of a molehill. Neither of my two sons have ever experienced trauma.
Go through and read the other comments in this thread. Has anyone else raised alarm bells? The answer is no.
Please, don't make accusations here at Beehaw. It isn't nice.
I have spent a great deal of time in forests (and still do). I have not experienced anything like this.
YouTube videos of 6K celebrities helped train AI model to animate photos in real time.
I've expressed this many many times to him over the years. I've said something like "I want to play games to have fun. If the game isn't fun for me, then I will not play it anymore".
I believe that he understands this. However, he just wanted so much to understand Elden Ring and beat it.
Personally, Elden Ring is NOT fun to play and that's why I don't play it.
I'm just astounded that my 8-10 year old son persevered so much to beat it.
I grew up hearing all the talking heads (media), religious groups and parents strongly criticizing video games. You've, probably, heard some of this. For example, video games involving any type of violence causing people to become more violent, etc. As far as I know, the academic community has failed to produce any negative relationship between video games and real life.
At the age of 8 my son began playing Elden Ring with me. We were both new to Souls-like games. I, quickly, became disheartened by the difficulty of Elden Ring and stopped playing altogether. On the other hand, my son continued to play Elden Ring. He had several meltdowns, over the next two years, trying so desperately to advance in this game. One of his most recent meltdowns was so traumatic for him, that he smashed the PS5 controller into our brand new TV screen which caused a square inch of it to be irreparably damaged. He was punished severely for doing this.
Two weeks later, he continued his quest to overcome Elden Ring. I remember hearing him say to himself, his mother and brother "I am not going to give up until I beat this game".
Three weeks, and many more meltdowns later, my 10 year old son beat Elden Ring. I remember hearing him scream "YES! YES! FINALLY!".
I ran into the room and found him sobbing with tears of joy. I hugged and congratulated him. I ran outside to tell his older brother and he ran in to congratulate him. His mother was overjoyed with his accomplishment.
For someone so young to persevere, spending over 300 hours, trying to overcome a tough game like Elden Ring is a huge accomplishment.
I am so proud of my son to have learned such a valuable lesson, on his own, at such a young age.
