The universe doesn't exist in human terms though. Stars don't care about genocide, or abortion. Black holes don't care about gender or identity issues. I'm certain the universe does not exist on human terms, and human morality is only an idea that has meaning to other humans.

I don't believe there is a single valid, unassailable concept that can prop up the idea that objective morality is likely, or even possible.

Would morality exist once the last human dies? Did morality exist before? It's just a useless question.

That's literally exactly how all humans work. Our ideas is morality come from our peers, and culture. That's all relative and very mutable.

While that works with 'facts', it doesn't work for opinions. A sense of morality is exactly an opinion or set of opinions that define what is and isn't right. It is exactly mired in perspective and again this is very self evident.

Muslims say that music is Haram because it is said so in Hadith, does that make music objectively wrong? They believe when a religious authority states this is true, that the religious authority has made a canonical judgement ( fatwa ) that is basically binding.

Am I a heathen for liking music then?

I can't believe people are so naive as to think objective standards for morality are even remotely possible.

People who down vote genuinely believe objective morality is possible, but it's literally impossible and it's incredibly obvious and self evident this is true.

It's not farfetched, it's the most likely, realistic outcome. I think we're already too late, and we've blown our chance these last few decades. This is the deciding era.

Awww, reading this makes me feel sad, but I also suspect this was a wrong number and they played this up.

It seems really obvious that it was either extra judicial "justice" that the guards and other parties conspired on, or he was put into a witness protection program for giving up contacts and this fact is so critical to take down trafficking rings that everyone must play along with him being dead.

I can't imagine other rational outcomes, he was high profile, and I absolutely expect Americans to think the vigilante justice is justifiable here, and lots of people would openly support that too. If he had compelling enough information on high profile individuals though, I can absolutely believe a deal was cut for his life, and his death faked.

Right? That's actually supposed to be three accounts.

Still here. Never went back, but it's so hard not to.

I knew CC was crowd control, I just don't know what that means in the context of this game. Is it a specific class, stats skill / spell? What is CC in BG3?

What is CC?

Couples with AI this really is an it begins situation.

Straight up expect to see AI in law enforcement and observation. Drones everywhere? Sure, but have you considered insect sized drones? That's where the fun begins.

Entirely overengineered. Redundant with better solutions. This is being pushed for hidden reasons.

Let me be real. I never noticed outages stopping. It feels like it's daily, I'm used to it, but I think it happens so often that lemmy.world has lost its growth opportunity, and we alienated the normies. I'm still going to stay on Lemmy, and I believe you're doing the best you can, but we lost for the time being, the migration to Lemmy from Reddit is stunted.

A monolith game is going to be published by Donkey's company? Is this real life??

Wow that's looks... actually good

I know people who used to work in game QA work, the key term is used to, the work isn't there anymore. Yes those jobs literally still exist, but it's not like it used to be, they're almost always contractors and where they used to hire in droves, the cycles are shorter and more last minute, with less people.

The dirty truth is that day one patches are a result of trading a release date for money - they budget for releasing, getting money from the sales, and using that to pay the last part of development. They're borrowing against the future, and they collect so much data from games that they get to effectively test games they know are not finished on consumers.

It's so much worse than you can imagine.

That's an astute way to conceptualize the issue! If perfect and fair moderation were possible, I guess I wouldn't have issue with it.

Because they're automatic and irreversible, and mistakes happen. I once worked for a different game company that auto banned people from games too, but I know at least some of them didn't, it ability to detect wasn't perfect and we absolutely banned people from time to time incorrectly. We just left people with no recourse and pretended that just wasn't possible. We never reversed our bans either.
