Originally posted by Technologist There’s a thread around here about systemic racism, this subject has been talked to death recently,
Systemic racism and white supremacy is alive and well in America.
Yeah I'm too lazy to read 700 posts where every other post is talking about the jedis.
Time for some unironic serious posting:
Do you think systematic racism and white supremacy is something that has power on a national level, or has only survived in localised areas and incidents?
I would tend to agree if you said the latter. -

Eliminate welfare for single parents, or drastically reduce it. This will incentivize marriage and help fix the ridiculous levels of fatherless black homes. Boys raised by a single woman is probably the largest cause of gang-violence in america.
Culturally shame Ebonics and whatever else black communities think pass as the queens English. The fact that a Chinese foreign student can speak English better than black native citizens is shameful.
Increase funding to never before seen levels of the police force in these communities. Make it so any wanna be gangbanger can't walk ten feet without tripping over an armed officer. Yes, poverty causes crime not being black, but while black communities are hotbeds of poverty and crime, the state has a duty to be there in force.
End the war on drugs, or at the very least, legalise weed.
No tolerance or serious political platforms given to any black person crying about systematic racism holding anyone back. This is America. The average black person in america probably has more opportunities to succeed than 80% of the worlds population. The only verifiable systematic racism in place today is affirmative action which massively benefits black people.
Speaking of. End affirmative action. If you treat lack black people like democrats do, as inferior beings that need a systematic racist structure to help them out, they'll start believing it (and have) and start blaming everything bad on the big bad white man.
There have been some grievous and horrible offences committed against blacks in the last 100 years. Is is now 2020, it's time to stop entertaining conspiracy theories of systematic racism and white supremacy.
Blacks are keeping themselves down and sadly the democrats are only looking to make token commitments to keep them voting for them.
TL;DR Serious sweeping reforms are needed in black culture. -

The arrogance and narcissism to think you deserve the private property of others for "reparations" while you're doing nothing but destroying the lives of others.
Fuck BLM. Fuck Antifa. -
2020-08-13 at 10:23 AM UTC in Dark Souls / Bloodborne / Sekiro / Elden RingGood games. Who play?
I picked up Sekiro again after playing through it when it came out, and found it a lot more enjoyable than the first time, it really is a well made game.
Bloodborne of course deserves its title as the king of all Soulsborne games.
Looking forward to what Elden Ring can bring to the table.
If the Demon Souls remake is a release title for PS5 I'll be buying the console on launch. -

2020-08-12 at 9:13 AM UTC in Biden Picks Kamala Harris as VP. The left and right both claim this will win them the election.In a stunning display of genius, Biden picks Harris in an attempt to secure the black and female vote.
Rightoids jerk themselves over been able to bring Harris' black weed convictions into the forefront.
Lefists jerk themselves over Harris voting along side Bernie Sanders 95% of the time, as well as knowing Biden will resign early on and the democrats will get their black, female (but sadly not trans) president.
Will this help or hinder Trumps reelection? -

Nice to see you again. I haven't played EVE properly in a long time but every now and again I think about all the lost Skill Points I could be acquiring and resubscribe purely to train in the background of my life in the hope that one day I'll come back to it.
Hope life is treating you well. -

Either I have the worst memory or you're full of shit my man. I'm pretty sure the last time I spoke to you on steam was 2016 or even 2015 lol...
That said, you've change your steam name and I have no idea what it is and I can't be bothered going through every friend and checking their past aliases looking for you so save me the effort and message me again xo -
2017-05-20 at 7:29 PM UTC in The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfussand the second in the trilogy, The Wise Man's Fear are the greatest fantasy novels written in the last decade or so.
Sure, Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere is more epic, and his 50k short novella The Emperor's Soul is by far his best work but it doesn't come close to the level of detail put into NoTW and WMF. Even after a decade it still holds a strong fan base who continue to discover new things in the prose. The last time I saw this much theorycrafting was while LOST was on TV. Most books are a single read piece, maybe again in a few years. NotW? WMF? Every time you read it you'll pick up on more and more stuff. Every time you read it you understand why it took PR so long to write the damn thing. I've gifted this book about to a dozen people since I read it.
Most authors do about 5-7 revisions before publications. PR? Did over 30. And by it shows.
For those who haven't read this, do yourself a favor and grab a copy. -

Arms Merchant posted briefly a while back, someone has him added on facebook and apparently he's still alive although I haven't seen him in a while. Similar situation with Xlite. Not sure where O_RLY and crew are, he was keeping #totse going for a bit but I think it's dead now? IDK, haven't logged on in a long ass time.
It's great to see so many people still around! Does this site have its own IRC?
Originally posted by Malice Hey, I still remember that site you made! I can't recall the term for it at the moment (feeling really shitty/off right now), but it was one of those where you have to figure out an answer to progress to the next URL.
Actually got pretty far into it, one of the farthest. I remember collaborating with one other person, we helped each other out a bit, but then I got stuck and he surpassed me.
I was curious as to what the final answers were, but never got around to asking. Eventually it just died off.
I remember you! Thanks for reminding I made that site... I even made a leader-board for it... I think it pretty much died when I stopped bother paying to host it - glad a few people enjoyed it! -

2017-05-20 at 1:26 AM UTC in Just found this placeJoined totse late, was around for most of Zoklet. Even had a chance to be a terrible mod for a while. Was inactive when it shut down... found this place through the totse subreddit on at 2am whim. That fucking URL jesus.
I assumed this would be another dead clone with 1 post every 2 days but then I saw Spectral is still around and has massed 5k+ posts in 6 months. Definitely him.
I remember Lanny and a few other names from Zoklet - good to bring back some memories. Is DFG alive? I remember him.
I just found-out a bunch of Zoklet is around on the wayback machine so I found the map of Zoklet I made, maybe some of you are on there:
https://web.archive.org/web/20140909195039/https://www.zoklet.net/bbs/showthread.php?t=102534
Xlite, Zoast, Infrared, Daguru (man that was a saga right there, guy basically killed zoklet by himself) - ArmsMerchant (wasn't he the old fuck? Used to be Grey something?) Snoopy, Unwyred, The Cheshire Cat...
Fuck there's so many I remember just browsing the names I see on the wayback machine. Any of them here?
