When Topic A discourse is applied to Topic B, it changes the entire context and tone of the conversation. I’ve seen it used to make humorous posts where the OP was transparent about the fact that they would change their posts to make the person responding to them seem crazy. While being upfront about that for the lulz is fine, it can easily be abused if the OP has ulterior motives. The OP can post flamebait, some people fall for it, then the OP edits their posts to seem more grounded and reasonable, while making the people replying to them seem unreasonable.

All that said, I’m sure the mods have change logs of posts and some people would definitely notice the edits. Not to mention the Way Back Machine.

I’m sure someone smarter than me could come up with worse abuse of the post edit system, and why it wouldn’t really matter too much in the end.

That’s not a bad idea. I might have to steal it.

And at the time of writing my previous two posts, I was a little drunk so I hope I made my point lol.

But yes, I understand where you are coming from. There is always an alternative, more “polite” way of getting a message across, even if that message itself is not polite. Using curses is a crutch for people that do not have the wit and vocabulary to say what they want to say. Did I get that right?

I feel like we agree to some extent. However, where we differ is in our attitudes towards the use of curses. You seem to look down on people who curse at all whereas I look down on people who curse profusely. By profusely, I mean in situations where cursing is not warranted (inappropriate setting) or just general overuse.

I think people can do and say whatever they want so long as they don’t hurt anybody, cursing included. I don’t see how the use of curses actually hurts anyone except maybe the recipient of a pointed “fuck you”. Anyone else around to hear the curse word only gets offended because society told them to.

I draw the line at racial slurs. That’s just not cool.

It’s entirely possible to get your feelings across without ever using curse words. I commend people for having the emotional maturity and the vocabulary to do so. However, I feel it is emotionally disingenuous to censor yourself with “polite” versions of curse words, for example saying “shoot” instead of “shit” or “fudge” instead of “fuck”.

I can understand if your surroundings aren’t conducive to curses, like being around children or in polite company such as a work or religious environment, but if you’re in a position where it is socially acceptable to curse but instead choose to censor yourself, I find you to be emotionally disingenuous or at least emotionally immature. If you choose to never ever curse, that’s cool too. Again, I think it’s commendable to never have to resort to curses. But if you have to use a curse word to get your point across, just use it if the environment is appropriate. Doubly so if it’s in a written medium.

I know what you’re trying to say when you type “f**k”. You’ve done nothing but demonstrate to me that you would like to seem “proper” while still resorting to using offensive language. Emotionally disingenuous, or at best emotionally immature. If you feel like you must censor yourself, then just don’t curse at all.

I thought two-stroke engines mix the oil and fuel together? Every time you refuel, you should also be topping up the oil. Am I wrong?

I agree to an extent. If overused, cursing can be “edgy” and offputting. However, sometimes you just need to emphasize the emotion of a given statement that mere “polite” words cannot express.

Quite frankly, I do not trust people that do not curse. I feel that they are not emotionally genuine. Conversely, I feel that people that curse too much are emotionally immature and do not know how to express themselves properly. Cursing is an art. It’s a linguistic balancing act where one must take the audience and message into consideration.

Yep. I’ve been there myself. It’s strange being “between worlds” as it were, but I’ve come to terms and even celebrate my multiculturalness.

Coconuts as in “brown and hairy on the outside, white on the inside”?

That’s pretty funny lol

Same. If they ever add a way to farm plants, I would consider having a few permanent biomass burners just for funsies.

For me it’s more kicking me while I’m down. I do not need a new windshield right now, life!

Keep in mind that if you start doing this now, this method may not work in 1.0 once it goes live for the reasons explained in the video. Regardless, I don’t see why this method shouldn’t work in 1.0.

There is a creative mode for satisfactory. It involves going into the menu and selecting something. I can’t seem to find the video that explains it, but if you select it and a warning pops up that says something along lines of “this change cannot be undone”, it’s that.

This is the sole reason I want contacts.

I’m talking out of my ass, but it could mean that the natural conclusion of democracy is mob rule, where nothing matters besides the sentiment of “the mob”, a large group of like-minded people. Here he was falsely accused of theft but because enough people believed the lie, he was taken to jail based solely on sentiment.

Or not. This is my take on his “democracy manifest” comment.

Mama no me entiende 😫

“Jorge wants to be hardcore and his mom won’t let him”

For all my non-Spanish speaking peeps.

Naked dudes is one thing. The guy you replied to is talking about a gaping prolapsed anus.

I used to work at a toy factory making plastic Draculas.

There were only two of us, so I had to make every second count.

Now THAT is a shower thought.

Am I expected to believe that that will be the actual in-game model of the pioneer? That is a lot of detail.

The Ficsit logo on the shoes is a very nice touch.

No, because that would be too clever and only nerds would get it. But I like where your head is at.
