it's not actually that helpful because a lot of the skill comes from muscle memory and that's not just for aiming but mousemovement also has a significant influence on movement

for example there's something called a circle jump where you use precise mouse movement to get the most efficient angles so that your movement speed is maximized from your first jump

worse even, it killed off many vibrant quake 3 communities that had been going from 1999 to 2008 because half the people started playing quake live and the other half stopped playing alltogether

there's nothing religious about entertaining the idea that sentience could just be an emergent property

hard to answer that without it looking like religion bashing to be honest

it's an uncomfortable topic for a lot of people because the idea that sapience/sentience is just a side effect of our brains being pattern matching machines with a giant knowledge graph of neurons means that we're not that special

if you frequently discuss these topics you should be aware that those were always just nice sounding soundbites that were never rooted in any kind of conviction

because it makes absolutely no sense here. what op is criticizing is on businesspeople lying to make more profit, not scientists

it's interesting, when you start getting into debating politics in your teens it's easy to fall into the trap of attacking authors instead of arguments, then as you get older you try to be better about this and then it turns around again as you age because giving the people the benefit of the doubt again and again and spending time dismantling their arguments only for them to turn around and publish the next article repeating the same things is a waste of time

op made no value judgement as opposed to you

this is a transparent gotcha attempt, op wrote "what they've decided are reasonable terms of service" and you pretend that op wrote about their own defintion of reasonable

but looking at it like that doesn't make people feel like they're some kind of freedom fighter (freedom to be bigoted trash)

and the british electorate could have used its power in controlling the levers of one of the most pampered and privileged members of the eu to keep laws friendly to british business in the same way they've done it since thatcher, but apparently that wasn't good enough
