actually, yes. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking and talking about the ethics of my work. ”it’s good actually” is not the right conclusion, but if you don’t realize that even torture is a legitimate question that doesn’t have a clear moral answer you are not taking it seriously.

yes, please thin harder before you come to a conclusion on how good torture actually is

perhaps it is that simple. how else could it knee-jerk “hosed up beyond belief” as being “good” is beyond me ...

how many europeans still play a 16 year old game though? probably they decided to ditch the 5 active users instead of overhauling their entire account system (that is apparently for some reason wildly incompatible with basic decency?)
