The only brain twisting I see here is you trying to sympathise with terrorist organisations. The Palestinian health organisation is controlled by Hamas. They regulary lie about many things, including casualties. Just look at the hospital “air strike” a few weeks back. It turned out to be Hamas’ own rockets that hit the parking lot. How many casualties did Palestine say it was? 500 on an near empty parking lot… I find it hard to believe, that the Hospital put 500 people on the lot. And if they did, where were the bloody corpses in the footage? There were probably casualties by that misfire. It was neither 500 casualties (probably closer to maybe 20), nor was the IDF responsible for that one.

Yes, there is a lot of suffering and I hope for a soon end to the conflict. But please, don’t blindly trust the Palestinian goverment like that. Neither do blindly trust Israel, either. Both sides can’t be fully trusted, not until independent organisations can verify all claims.

Hamas has switched to informational war with fake numbers and campaigns on social media and this has been proven over and over again. Both sides are exaggerating, but Israel at least is not undermined by terrorists.

Now downvote me to oblivion, because I don’t trust everything blindly like the Ministry of Truth want’s us to.

You are putting words in my mouth. I never said I’m opposed to mod support across platforms. In fact, I wish that more games would do this. I looked into mod.io for a bit and have to apologise, though. It seems I fell for the privacy concern myth, if you can call it that.

I still oppose some implementations of it. The game “Ready or Not” especially is atrocious with its mod.io implementation. You can only install + enable, or uninstall mods there. No disable option what so ever. Really fun with mods that are multiple GB in size, like maps.

Bu-but muh free games, tho?

• Dimwits, probably

Worse is, that Epics Spyware finds its way onto Steam releases as well with their online services… And don’t get me started on other cancer like mod.io

But Israel is not just randomly bombing Gaza? Hamas uses the Gaza People as a meat shield. They have taken all of Gaza hostage.

Should Israel just let themselves get bombed by those degenerate Terrorists without attacking themselves, because Hamas has a meat shield?

Honestly, Israel could just glass the Gaza Strip in a few days. Instead, they target specific buildings and points, even “knocking” before blowing it up, so civilians (and the terrorists) can escape. It is tragic that there are civilian casualties, but it cannot be completely avoided in this specific circumstances. Hamas desperately has their launch sites near hospitals and schools and playing fields.

Considering how the main line games are doing — no. Our only hopes are Spike Chunsoft with Mystery Dungeon now. I hope they don’t mess it up if they get to have another go at it.

And what about pedestrians? Are they getting fucked over as always or does this Goolag shite include people with functioning legs as well?

Assuming that Goolag is a US business, I guess it probably doesn’t… You know what would solve emission problems in the big cities, though? Getting rid of private cars and instead investing in busses, trams and subways. Trying to “cure” the symptoms won’t get us far if the main problem still persists.

And I still don’t give a damn! There are two scenarios in case of sponsors.

1. The creator already got paid for the ad before the video. or
2. The creator is payed by percentage of their affiliate link.

It doesn’t matter if I skip for number one, obviously. Number two could be an argument. But 99% of those sponsors are borderline scams anyway, so I really don’t care, because I will never buy something off a sponsorship like that. Not NordVPN (which still tracks you btw…), nor Raid, nor any other crap.

Additionally, SponsorBlock also gets rid of those annoying reminders to “like and subscribe” barely a second into the video, and other such annoyances like fillers or those dumb spoilers that show the best parts of the video right at the start.

SponsorBlock isn’t the issue. It is a symptom of Googles unfathomable greed and the creators/consumers collective Stockholm Syndrome. I value my time more, than hearing the same five sentences about World of Tanks, Raid or any other braindead “game” repeated 500 times.

The only sponsors I don’t skip are the ones from InternetHistorian. He at least puts effort in and makes it fun to watch.
