Gripweed posted:aaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH Chapo spreading that Millennium Challenge bullshit again! it's annoying because the ways RED cheated and the ways RED "cheated" are difficult to disentangle on the one hand, loading up speedboats with missiles bigger than speedboats is just some absolute script kiddy trying to break the game horseshit on the other hand, "wait if I know the opposing force has compromised electronic communications, what if I don't use electronic communications for important poo poo" is exactly the kind of strategic decision we've been screaming NO FAIR at our opponents for using since Vietnam

i say swears online posted:drat I never knew this part it's revealing of the underlying flaw, though. Riper or Ripper or whatever did what he did not as a demonstration that the US could be beaten by Iran, but as a way of saying "this entire simulation is loving stupid." everything is contingent on RED's commander behaving exactly on-script. if he messes with what the simulation was designed to do, even slightly, the whole thing breaks down. and he was not interested in only slightly breaking it.

Ytlaya posted:The recommendation to listen to early chapo was a good one. I didn't know that they had gone on Street Fight podcast before making their own, and that Street Fight even existed before Chapo. What did they even do before the podcast? The awkward pauses in the first episode were kinda funny. felix occupies a not-uncommon niche in the comedy world, and an extremely not uncommon niche in the podcasting world: The One Who's Dead Weight 95% Of The Time But Holy poo poo, That Five Percent. that was the deal with Graham Chapman in Monty Python; guy was an alcoholic by even English standards, and ended up playing the main characters in the movies mostly so he wouldn't have to keep track of who he was from scene to scene. he did not contribute much to the general writing, but when he did, it was stuff like saying "you've got something there, but a broken toaster just isn't funny enough. what if it was a dead parrot." admittedly he accidentally invented the whole monkey cheese genre of humor as a result, but in his defense the dead parrot sketch still slaps regardless.

from a mechanical standpoint FF6 is astonishingly bad, and its back half is the birth scream of the dread god "if you run out of budget in the second half of your game, just throw everything you've got at a random spot on the world map and make the player buy the guide to figure out where/what anything is." chrono trigger aged well; FF6... was a bold step forward, and like most bold steps forward, it didn't age well

the article suffers a little bit from the boundaries of the PMC being vague enough you can slot anyone you don't like into it, and also from the inescapable need of the academic to blame the problems of the world on the kids these days showing insufficient respect to their elders, but good article. every other one of the chapos has an uncertain future, but it is an absolute certainty Amber's includes the time she gets pissy at some adjunct for poo poo-talking her and sues, completing the cycle

Trabisnikof posted:Sorry dude but Jorden Peterson sucks. peterson's funny because he's about as close to an academic's academic as you can get, with politics that are a pure expression of his material circumstances. the things that annoy him in his day-to-day work are students who won't respect him and other professors who won't agree with him, and therefore, he builds a political worldview where once -those- issues are dealt with, everything else will fall into place. amber's certainly smarter than that low bar, but you'll notice her takes get a little more galaxy brain every time discussion strays towards those topics. there is a reason for this.

Historically states have suffered losses to plague and war upwards of 70 percent, and still kept running. There will be no grand balkanization, no regression to a primitive state. The absolute worst that I see happening is a regression to early 20th century standard of living en masse...which while bad, will not free you from the tax man. I mean, there's gonna be a nontrivial amount of balkanization
