Xiahou Dun
His image as a one-eyed warrior was popularized by the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in which he ripped the arrow from the socket, devoured his own eyeball, and rejoined the battle.
If they animated all of that I would be suitably impressed.
I intensely dislike this trope.
It's to have everything abstracted and animated well. You click the dude and click murder, but they're more skilled so it shows them dodging or parrying or whatever. Fine. Believable. They're a badass.
It's okay to let me aim and if I click on their head they die. The arrow hit them in the eye? No one shrugs that off.
Mixing them, like Bethesda games and some ass-creed games, is the worst.
Some people love their country like a child loves their parent. Uncritical. They can do no wrong and are the best ever. Don't be like that.
Some people love their like like a peer loves a peer. You see their flaws and want them to be the best they can be. Be like that, even when it's uncomfortable and difficult.
Venture capitalists (idiot husks with more money than brains, but tremendous ego and unjustified confidence) give world-changing amounts of money to a lot of stupid shit and hope at least one of them somehow turns into a big payday. Sometimes they break laws (eg: uber, airbnb). It's a horrible way of running a society.
We could be solving homelessness, hunger, diseases, the climate crisis. Instead, these fucking idiots are pouring millions of dollars into shit like "an AI to listen to music for you".
I've been saying that for years. Now I have about 250 albums drm-free on Bandcamp. A good chunk of that money went to the people making the music, too.
I know there are people out there paying a subscription to Spotify who listen to the same dozen albums over and over, too.
Imperial system (or whatever the US system is called ) should go away. Let's all just one standard.
Unfortunately, since I'm from the US, I only really know this one, and it's hard to switch when nothing else has switched. I'd put up with the pain of switching though.
Most people don't think much beyond their immediate needs. Their moral framework stops at "will I be immediately punished?"
Something abstract like this will miss with many of them.
Please start live streaming your actions in public for us all to watch. You don't have any abusive exes or family members, I hope. Also I trust you've never said anything to irritate right wing fanatics. Maybe if it's a little more personal, you'd have a little more empathy.
Also, of note, not all limits are from the law. Peer pressure and private businesses saying "You can't do that in here" are also tools.
Something being legal doesn't make it good.
People want to be able to go out into the world without being filmed. That was the case for thousands of years. It is not unreasonable to expect limits on recording in public.
Now one of the worst organizations on earth (meta) wants to record everyone and everything for their private benefit. People are mad.
I'm an outlier I guess. I don't think I have any subscriptions.
The people who pushed for such a blatantly unconstitutional law should be removed from office.
Notepad was supposed to be the simplest lightest weight text editor. It didn't need to change.
