Well, shit like that is always nice to hear (the end bit, I mean).
I may not have noticed your temporary departure, but welcome back to the madhouse, you just missed the start of some funny shit.

I live in Wales.
It rains. Everyday.
I'd like a piece of that action.
Or at least, I suppose you think you do until you're living it.
Oh no it's definitely not fun.

I try my best, but there's far too much to keep track of.
I follow along with politics in the UK & the EU (mostly BBC and whatever Meta posts, though keeping aware of bias and lack of info either can provide) and somewhat in the Middle East (although ISIS has royally fucked up my following of the Syrian civil war).
But I fail to follow along anything much outside of that, unless it's blown up on the news or related to the above.
As for debating about these things, I know I'm not as articulate on these matters as many here and I'm fine with that. Hell, usually I learn something or get a new perspective. But fuck, I don't have to know everything, it's not my job.

You mean me?
the only reason why i don't like mods is because you're screwing with someone else's art
even if the devs intended to add more to the game, i think the finished product should stay the finished product
Would this still apply if it's broken and has no post-release support? (I.e. "Unofficial Patches")
for me, yes
a game that's broken on release is probably not a game worth playing anyway
But it's worth playing if someone fixes it...
I never get your stance on mods, because to me, it's like this: You go to the store and buy a wheelbarrow, but when you get back you notice that it was sold to you with a bad wheel. You already have a spare wheelbarrow wheel, so you replace it, making the original product better. What's so bad about additions? About improvements?
I see it like an old or partially unfinished painting being restored.
But then as Verb says, a half arsed product is not really worth buying.
But if you restore an old painting, it ruins it for everyone. There are unlimited possible copies to a video game, choosing to mod yours only affects you.
That's true. I'm not against modding, you know.

I got Bernie Sanders at 88%, but some other peeps got pretty close... I don't follow American politics so I've no idea if that's actually who I'd follow, although I'm veeeery doubtful that I agree with Hillary Clinton.

Because, when they named it, the 'centi' was referencing 100 legs and not its size.
But really, does this look like it's a centimeter long to you?
Problem is, centipedes don't have 100 legs nor even pairs of legs. The same goes for millipedes, they have around 700-800 IIRC.
I know that, but when they named the centipede I don't think they were counting very closely. The name literally mean "100-footed" in Latin.
Scientists sure were lazy when they named them. " Eh, it looks like 100 legs... now, pub anyone?"

I make good steak.
Hopefully in a few years time I'll be helping fuel the world with it's demand for oil or other resources after I get my degree.

Well really you could become a detritovore to do the best possible Why would that be the best possible?
Detritovores only eat the refuse material of plants and other animals, and seeing as naturally dead plant refuse hasn't suffered and still contains nutrients...

Nah bro you kill living things too. The point of veganism is to do the best you possibly and feasibly can.
I am doing the best job that I possibly can.
Well really you could become a detritovore to do the best possible, but still veganism is an admirable effort. And for plants, it's ending a life in much the same way of any living thing. Saying killing something that doesn't feel doesn't make it any better, otherwise it means I could eat paralysed-from-birth animals under the same premise without worrying about my conscious.

Getting more efficient at it will mean less goes to waste, thetefore less animals are killed for food This is called veganism.
Nah bro you kill living things too. Technically speaking, detritovores have the true moral high ground.

Sure it's still shite by your own imagined standards of what is perfect, but life is still here, and getting better at it.
getting better at what
Well you want everything to not eat each other and only eat relatively inanimate things because you believe eating other animals is immoral. Thing is, nature doesn't just decide to work in your favour because it isn't sentient or have a moral belief of... well, anything. Neither can life just suddenly make an animal that is in dietary terms, moral. Life will continually develop to get more efficient at getting energy to sustain itself, but it will always derive off taking the energy from something else, be it a star, a plant or another animal. Getting more efficient at it will mean less goes to waste, thetefore less animals are killed for food, less greens being grown for food, and less energy that is being taken from stars that through entropy will eventually lead to a cold death of the Universe. Jesus, that was a long sentence.

Can, and just have. well, you're wrong
I mean, life still exists, but it's not "perfect" (by our own judgement of that definition). so if it exists, it works
that's pretty retarded m8
You've appeared to misinterpret what I've said in the first place. Perhaps this way; first animal life on land was comparitively shit to today, and were carnivorous (early spiders), or detritovors (ate rotting plant material) because it was easy to develop from these systems because they already occured in the oceans, and it was at the time impossible to get nutrients directly from eating a live plant. Today, we've (our branch of life) survived, developed, and evolved to a point where our diet can be carnivorous, omnivorous, vegetarian, vegan (though that's purely a human construct), and there's a few detritovors still banging around. Sure it's still shite by your own imagined standards of what is perfect, but life is still here, and getting better at it.

Yep. Face it for what it is, cruel, retarded in some cases, and horribly inneficient.
But hey, it works. Most of the time on Earth, anyway.
you can't say that something is inefficient in one breath, and say that "it works" in the sense

Arguing with nature seems stupid. Describing nature as precisely what it is--stupid and messy and wasteful--is probably a good idea.
