2018-09-09 at 9:28 PM UTC in Road WafflesRoad Waffles is a webcomic ran between 1999 and 2005 at roadwaffles.com on Keenspot. It is one of Eight's few finished works, and could be called his flagship series. It was followed by three very loosely related sequels, left unfinished.
The original story chronicles the adventures of Haley, a young blonde female comedic sociopath, and Bruno, a thirtyish-looking bearded man in a cowboy hat, who embark on a random and surrealistic road trip, meeting Loads and Loads of Characters who randomly join and are just as randomly killed off. It primarily ran on Road Trip Plot and Comedic Sociopathy tropes, and grew a bit of a background plot during time (not that the main characters cared very much) involving alternate universes, Time Travel and a Zombie Apocalypse.

2018-09-09 at 5:42 PM UTC in The Odroid GoI've downloaded a variety of games for this device, mostly from this site:
https://vimm.net
However some games had to downloaded from other sites.
I have mostly been playing a ROM hack called Pokemon Red DX. It feels like the classic game with new features and new surprises. -
2018-09-09 at 5:35 PM UTC in The Odroid GoI recently purchased an Odroid Go for $32. An Odroid Go is a DIY portable handheld game console/emulator that plays NES, Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Sega Gamegear and Master system as well as Colecovision if you update the firmware to the latest version.
Putting the device together is fun, easy and doesn't take very long. You can also buy replacement parts if you were to break something. There is no soldering required, all the parts simply plug into place. An SD card is required and is not included in the kit.
The screen is excellent quality. The shell feels like good quality, the buttons feels great. The battery life is great, lasts me days with the amount I use it, have heard that it will last average of 6+ hours of constant usage with low volume and normal backlight setting.
The sound quality is not the greatest at higher volume but is absolutely fine at low volume. There is no headphone jack but the device is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capable - these are currently not utilized but future updates maybe possible to use Bluetooth headphones with the odroid go. Currently I have seem one person who is selling headphone jacks that plug into the 10-pin port on the top of the device for about $15 online.
I recommend this device for anyone interested in portable classic gameing.

Originally posted by Captain Whether or not you feel it doesn't matter here, neither does what you feel on this specific issue. It doesn't matter because you don't even know what it means to feel a moral obligation. This entire conversation is meaningless unless you can surmount this particular hurdle.
I'm not necessarily in favour of Zanick's argument in specific, what I am trying to explain to you is how you could feel a moral obligation to do anything, and then you can actually have a rational conversation with Zanick or Lanny.
In my system, you can feel a moral obligation to not eat meat if you believe that your justification for eating meat will somehow be a degradation of your own ethics or rights, or if eating an alternative to meat would somehow lead to a greater expression of your own freedoms.
So for example if you think that the practice of eating meat (or any other relevant activity, maybe driving a gas guzzling truck) will increase the chances of someone being flooded, and you do not want others' to raise your own chances of being flooded any higher than they are through their meat eating (or other activity), you have created a moral obligation to not eat meat, because if everyone ate meat and used the justification that they'll do it because they can and because it's tasty, like you do, then your chances of being flooded go up, and you have now hurt your own interests if your behaviour was generalized. You've made that determination of bad and good, but you've made it through consistency and self interest.
Why do you assume I don't know how it feels to feel morally obligated? Just because I think morality is relative doesn't mean I don't feel like things are right or wrong. I just don't feel like the things I feel are right or wrong necessarily applies to other people and vice versa. -

2018-06-28 at 9:53 PM UTC in We have a moral obligation to stop eating meatI know you're trying Falcon.
I still don't understand.
How am I morally obligated to not eat meat? I feel no such obligation exists. -

Originally posted by Captain Why would only morality be irrelevant? You are literally making a logically incoherent statement here.
You gave subjectivity as a sole and direct reason for why morality is irrelevant (irrelevant to what?). If subjectivity makes morality irrelevant, why doesn't it make anything else irrelevant?
Because if morality is subjective nobody necessarily agrees with any one individuals preferences, so to say "you have a moral obligation" is like me saying you have an obligation to love vanilla ice cream because it's my favorite. -
2018-06-28 at 7:57 PM UTC in We have a moral obligation to stop eating meatI only said morality is irrelevant. I think it's fine to say "vanilla ice cream is the best". But I don't think saying "we have a moral obligation to not eat meat" is very useful for anything.

Originally posted by aldra interpretation of morality comes from the same place as any other one of your thoughts or desires; I think he was trying to use that as a parallel to discuss the difference between objectivity and subjectivity
I had to dig too far back to get through all the retarding so I don't know exactly what the original point of contention was
Thanks for trying to help but still don't understand... if individuals are "interpreting" morality is that not subjective?
If one person interprets a behavior as moral and another person interprets the same behavior as immoral... to me, that means morality is obviously relative. It's all in an individual's mind. To assume morality is objective must mean that one of those individuals are incorrect in their interpretation. So ... what do we look at to see who is incorrect? What is the objective part of morality Lanny and Falcon are claiming exists?
Do you understand what they are trying to explain to me Aldra? Can you explain it in a way dumb ol' Obbe might understand? -
