can we please stop metashitting and go back to discussing virginity already?
me, i think it's really cool how if you live in america you have to do days worth of individual research and end up like the dude from the always sunny screenshot w/ the hundreds of different pieces of thread tacked to a bulletin board just to find a brand of oats that hasnt been sprayed directly with carcinogenic pesticides
remember this next time some politician is saying some populistic shit and pretending to give a shit about the common man, they literally do not care if you and your children end up eating literal poison every day if it means their wealthy benefactors can make a few more dollars. other countries have banned pre-harvest glyphosphate desiccation because they actually care about their citizenry, it's just too bad that the USA isn't a country but the world's largest open air cattle farm, and u are the cattle
>>100
as someone who has lived in the us and 2 other places, putting sugar in the bread is worse than using pesticides, just because some farmers cant dose for shit
I bet you freak out about fluoride in the water too
>>104 what a total non sequitur
stop eating bread btw, problem solved. are you a cow? no? then stop eating grass.
it's ya boi the ratkilla
but yeah fluoridation of water is another thing the US cattle farmers do to keep their cattle in line that isn't done in countries where the common citizen is viewed as a human and not livestock, fluoride is a literal neurotoxin

carbohydrates should come primarily from things like fruit, berries, non gluten-containing grains like oats and rice
I cant tell if you all are being serious or not but this thread is gonna be in the top 5 worst current thoughts threads. I blame /img/.
ketosis is like your body's backup generator, it only happens in "wild humans" in times of extreme famine. the "increased alertness" people report while in ketosis is literally just your brain saying "i'm fucking starving dude, feed me already" and desperately looking around for any edible source of glucose. that being said, wheat is still a systemic poison unless u have a ruminant stomach or sprout/ferment it before consumption.

These are about contaminated groundwater, actual dosed water is fine.

>>112 this is a 20 year old study from the same people who spent the past 60 years telling you that sugar was fine but eating butter once will make your heart explode. it also makes no recommendations for or against dosing water with fluoride.
if it's such a public health concern though, why is public drinking water not dosed with other water-soluble nutrients that much of the population at large is deficient in? why don't they put methylcobalamin and magnesium chloride in the water?
>The mechanisms by which fluoride affects cell functions include the generation of superoxide anions (Garcia-Montalvo et al. 2009; Izquierdo-Vega et al. 2008); mitochondrial toxicity,[...] and the modified release of the neurotransmitters acetylcholine (Flora et al. 2009) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (Gardiner and de Belleroche 1990).
weird how environmental toxicity always seems to come back to these three things! but i guess the science is settled and we should totally trust the UN and the WHO!
preempting even more attempted ideological pigeonholing: i don't think there's some global systemic lizardman conspiracy to make you drink the fluoride and eat the bugs(but it's fun to pretend sometimes), i DO think the 80 year old geriatric fucks that are in charge of everything are making policy based on outdated science and shareholder profits rather than basing it on what's in the best interest & health of the common person affected by those policies. never assume malice when stupidity is an equally efficacious explanation.
also im gay & not white, just to preempt that as well

out of all the odd things that have happened in retrospect, i wouldn't have imagined mdickie's shit games would eventually net him modest success. who could've foretold the introduction of smartphones would lead to an insatiable thirst for garbage, disposable fart apps and that he would directly profit from it at the very beginning of the app craze. he still has the /prog/ interview in his website, lol, what a petty man.

I never got the hype of New Vegas (and 3D fallout in general), it always felt like you were map painting the region to a level that was unrealistic for most individuals who werent nearly deity-like. The hardcore mode also didnt feel survival-y enough, just more meters you have to micromanage.
I do like the world and some of the writing though (The hearts of iron mod feels like what Fallout tactics should have been.), I also think being able to viably do unarmed runs is really cool too.
imagine living in korea, surrounded by the best kimchi in the world.
you live with your korean grandma who lives in the same house and makes you eat her kimchi though.
and she's terrible at it so you never get to have the good stuff
>>142 oh dude i played new vegas after hating fallout 3 because the hype was unbearable and guess what
It SUCKED
not just a little either it was UNBEARABLE
probably the most overrated vidya of all time
did i learn anything? yes, i learned to love myself and not listen to people's shitty advice. and never again with fucking bethesda

so what you're saying is, we live in a society
thank you for informing me, i was not aware of this

New Vegas was Obsidian not Bethesda, that's what contributes to people having a favourable opinion of it

New Vegas wasn't bad. The gameplay mostly sucked, but the plot, writing, and environments were pretty good, and I liked how they handled skills. That said, I'm not really a fan of post-apocalyptic settings.
>>153
well i just checked the world's most accurate encyclopedia and:
"... and published by Bethesda Softworks."
and the proof's in the pudding, because new vegas was pretty much indistinguishable from fallout 3 (which in turn was basically oblivion with a skin) in every respect, including the plot and characters and writing. i hadn't bothered to check into the details of the development because as i said, the proof's in the pudding, but i'm guessing bethesda brings a pretty financialized development environment to any game they publish, even if they outsource the development to a different company, and even if that company employs some fallout 2 devs (apart from my heuristic speculation about anything bethesda touches turning to shit, there's ample indication that tihs happened in the development section on the wiki article too). it's the financialization that's the problem, same reason all of EA's games suck.
in fact i'll even say oblivion was the best game out of those three, not that i have any love for it
sorry, i know i'm being autistic, i just really hated it, lol
How the fuck do they do that?
Fallout 3, New Vegas and Oblivion are all good but only if you use one of those modding guides that add like a billion mods and takes like 3 days to do
>>157
Publishing is not the same as developing, really all they did was slap their sticker on it at the end
But whatever it's besides the point
Why do her knees smell like Raid
>>161 i'm well aware publishing is not the same hting as developing but if you think they're totally disjoint you're fooling yourself. i'll go quote more from the world's most accurate encyclopedia
>Bethesda commissioned a sequel.
so, again, they outsourced the development. it's not like obsidian pitched the game to bethesda and bethesda just handled distribution
>Bethesda rejected Obsidian's idea to set the game between the events of Fallout 2 and Fallout 3, but they did approve of setting the game in Las Vegas.[19][20]
so bethesda actually had substantial creative input
>Obsidian were unfamiliar with the Gamebryo engine
(because it's garbage and it's impossible to make a good game in it)
>The game had a somewhat short development cycle of 18 months.
you really think bethesda didn't have something to do with this? i bet it was in the contract. this kind of dev cycle is exactly the kind of thing i mean about financialization. they spent 18 months shitting out mediocre dungeons, making a crude overworld map of LV, and trying to patch up the engine into something usable. the only actually interesting characters/quest i can remember was the elvis impersonators. everything else was just content farm schlock
but you're right, it's beside the point, because anybody who has played both fallout 3 and new vegas can tell you they're almost exactly the same game
>>159
i disagree, these mods improve things but there's still basically no way to make an action game good when it randomly lags because the engine is shit. and there's no way to make believable / relatable characters when the faces are right in the middle of the uncanny valley. it was a fool's errand from the start
to me it's honestly the weirdest thing that other ppl dont hate it as much as i do

>to me it's honestly the weirdest thing that other ppl dont hate it as much as i do
there is a contigent that hates it, but for the most part because they like fallout 4 and are embittered by the difference in reception or they interpret liking it as a partisan political statement because modern internet

new vegas is remembered fondly mainly for being the best 3d fallout game which is frankly, not a very high bar to clear at all
all the mechanical/gameplay problems of 3 are still there but it at least had some interesting characters. the design docs for van buren project looked fucking awesome and im still mad to this day that we'll never get to play THAT version.
navigating the overworld and fighting enemies were generally more of a tedious chore than a fun challenge. where it really shined was the branching dialogues, deep (for a 3d CRPG) characters and the overall plot and worldbuilding. the character building and branching plot also made it possible to self-insert basically any backstory and personality into the PC that you wanted. want to be a gay antifascist wandering the mojave murdering racist white male slave traders with your doctor boyfriend? u can do that. want to be a cowboy drifter blowing from town to town like a tumbleweed, staying just long enough to kick the dust off your spurs and solve all the towns problems? u can do that too. i don't think ive ever felt "this game would have been much better as a visual novel" about very many games but new vegas was one of them.
>>171
I dunno about a VN, but definitely would've been better in the OG fallout style.
I agree about the self insert thing, the courier also has way too much influence. The only realistic thing is the Kings stuff and that's because you're in the ear of an already powerful person.
Most stuff the Courier does would have them be a nearly religious figure in whatever faction they help.

Buy my shit on ebay you cowards, fuck. 18 watchers now.
They're trying to wait for me to lower the price when it's 30% off the nearest listing, it's in good condition and complete, and ebay is going to take a 10% cut, I'm not doing that.
wonder if you could mix white monster with salmiakki vodka
Shout out to the brave impulse buyer who just bought my listing after I complained
