It's cast iron, you don't wash cast iron pots or pans.

Why would you buy a pot you cannot wash? Do you just let bits of food rot in it? Is this an American thing?

quote:

"According to Immanuel, people can tell if they have taken an demonic spirit husband or spirit wife if they have a sex dream about someone they know or a celebrity, wake up aroused, stop getting along with their real-world spouse, lose money, or generally experience any hardship.

Alternately, they could just be having dream-sex with a human witch instead of a demon, she posits.

“There are those that are called astral sex,” Immanuel said in the sermon. “That means this person is not really a demon being or a nephilim. It’s just a human being that’s a witch, and they astral project and sleep with people.”

Immanuel’s bizarre medical ideas don’t stop with demon sex in dreams. In a 2015 sermon that laid out a supposed Illuminati plan hatched by “a witch” to destroy the world using abortion, gay marriage, and children’s toys, among other things, Immanuel claimed that DNA from space aliens is currently being used in medicine.

“They’re using all kinds of DNA, even alien DNA, to treat people,” Immanuel said.

Fair enough...but I guess I was using meat eating as an example. There may very well be things I’m doing now that it would never even occur to me will be frowned upon in the future, it’s impossible to know. And I understand that could be taken as an obnoxious justification to not self-improve in any way. But I don’t mean it that way...only that we have to be careful about patting ourselves on the back too much in comparison to people in the past. Many of those people did suck, but it’s highly likely we all suck in ways that we are entirely unaware of.

TLDR: Burgers are delicious

You're right, that does sound like you're justifying not changing your behaviour even when you clearly believe that it's wrong.

I think you've kind of answered your own question through your own actions: plenty of people in the past knew they were being lovely but didn't care.

learnincurve posted:

The french however built their capital city in the wrong place and the aristocracy turned all the fertile land round it into vineyards. This meant meat and fish was pretty much rotten by the time it got to the city and then navigated through the packed streets. Their solution was to invent marinades and sauces that would hide the rotten meat, as the British didn’t need to do this and would serve meat just lightly dry spiced. Made sense for the french government to push the lie that french cooking was awesome look at the plain English food haw haw in case the general population looked at the champagne region and went “hang on why are there not sheep on here”

dude, they weren't slaughtering the animals in the distant countryside and transporting slowly rotting meat into Paris. They brought the living animals into the city and slaughtered them there.

50 seconds in. Video's from June. I didn't notice it when I saw it, but I'm not an epileptic or person designing a game.

Person with photosensitive migraines, ditto. I can't find the tweet now (there were a lot of them) but another person with epilepsy pointed out that Cyberpunk 77 had three different photosensitive triggers: blinking lights, alternating colors, and IIRC strobing patterns. It's not a single trigger, it's multiple of them layered, which raises the odds that people will be offected.

Is that three different triggers in one scene at the same time or separate ones?

its a cyberpunk setting but the protagonist being a cop is antithetical to the premise

there's no hacking/illicit information access/cyberspace component to it either

Deckard isn't reeeeally a cop, he's exploited/blackmailed by the cops and used as a tool to do their dirty work.

boar guy posted:

eh, he acts with a cop's authority and in the sequel his partner pretty much confirms that he was A Cop

and then joe, in the sequel, is even more explictly A Cop

cyberpunk is about bucking the system. even gibson's stuff that includes ex cops or ex military as protagonists has them pretty explicitly become criminals as plots unfold

I don't necessarily think that Blade Runner is cyberpunk, but like the whole premise of the movie is Deckard realising that the system is a exploitative nightmare, that he's murdering people and eventually that he needs to escape it.
