I've always wondered why it is that video games have received such sustained hate from older people when, at this point, enough time has passed for people that were playing video games in the '70s or early '80s to have grown "old." Is it because there were not as many people playing games back then? Am I overstating how much of an issue that this actually is?

TopicTrans women banned from top-level female chess
Shadowplay
08/16/23 8:08:57 PM

There's potentially a male advantage because, on average, men have much greater visual-spatial ability, while women have greater verbal ability. That means that the typical man can visualize things and move objects around in his head more clearly and easily than the typical woman can. Again, this is just the average; there are indeed women that have greater visual-spatial ability than most men and most women. And for all we know, women may be able to use some sort of alternate strategy when playing chess as opposed to picturing all the possible moves in their head.

The explanation of having a women's league due to comfortability or something of that nature makes a lot of sense, though, and I wouldn't be surprised if women participating in chess had nothing to do with these average differences in cognitive ability. And for all we know, trans women might skew towards the average verbal and visual-spatial ability of ciswomen.

Correct, people on the right often use conception as the point where legal personhood should apply. Its just a pet peeve of mine when pro-choice people knee jerk respond to their life begins at conception by saying it doesnt. Yes, it does; acknowledging that doesnt mean you also have to agree with pro-lifers on the issue of personhood.
This is pretty much correct. Life does begin at conception, but human life at the zygotic stage is not some precious thing that deserves protection. A lot of these pro-life people are only pro-life because they believe in some supernatural quality of humans, like the soul, (which doesn't exist).

I don't mind sci-fi but Quake 1 was this weird mash up of medieval, goth, horror and Trent Reznor. It would be cool to see that again.

Wasn't that Quake Arena (Quake 3) Relatively popular? I only ever played the 1st to any real extent and just watched some videos know some of the others.
Quake 3 pretty much started the trend of "arena" style shooters on the PC, like Unreal Tournament. So yeah, it was pretty influential. I also like how the console version had an unused voice for the Doom guy:

Off the top of my head:
1) Crits don't work
2) Agility as a stat doesn't help with evasion like it should and only works to slow down the roulette for trap chest.
3) Lots of glitches like your cast times still "casting" while you are in the menu.
4) Duran's shields don't work for anything aside from the raw defense they provide.
5) Buffs and Elemental stacking works jank. If you give yourself a buff, and THEN put elemental on will result in the elemental property overwriting the buff, so you have to do it very precisely.
6) Kevin's werewolf form was absolutely broken as it wasn't supposed to give you such insane buffs from my understanding but does.
7) Some classes were significantly worse to the point that they were basically useless.
8) Your special bar would sometimes just not be consumed when used which allowed you to spam it. In some cases it didn't empty fast enough for you not to use the move AGAIN.
Remake fixes a lot of things like:
Angela being bad. She's amazing in every difficulty but Expert.
o_O The Mana Collection version didn't fix any of that?

This is news to me.
He was a storm and warrior deity. His exact origins are mysterious, but he's believed by at least one leading scholar, to have been a god of the Midianites, who lived south of Judah and Edom. Moses flees there in the book of Exodus and it is there that Yahweh reveals himself. It is believed that that represents a trace memory of the Midianite origin of Yahweh, especially since Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, seems to know who Yahweh is already.
