I’m really trying to think of a single upside to putting it in space. Unfiltered solar power, does that matter at all? Not that you would ever break even on the cost.

The Nazis were active for 25 years before WWII shattered them. The American Civil War lasted 4 years with a looong lead-in to the actual secession. The Coal Wars took 40 years.

We ain’t seen nuthin yet.

It was a pretty standard anti-corporate satire that would not have stood out against films like Brazil or Joe vs the Volcano.

Activists being assassinated by the government should tell you what the people in power are actually scared of. (It’s armed, organized resistance rather than one-day protests and email campaigns)

Yep, #3 is a sad necessity due to the gaps and inequities in our legal system.

Yeah, if you want to chat off-topic take it to AIM.

Old-school forum with under a hundred people and a couple mods that give a shit is peak but does have problems with stagnation and over-specialization. Casual chat rooms or a -chan style board are a good counterbalance and nobody should exist in only one social space. Reddit et al. is a weird in-between and Discord feels like worse IRC.

Consistency is a very big deal for commercial products, they have a legal requirement for accurate labeling.

Because it doesn’t last long in cans. All the extra ingredients are to keep the appearance and taste stable. Meats and starches are particularly hard to safely can without preservatives.

Not how evolution works.

If the rest of the world doesn’t learn from our example I’m gonna be very disappointed. Your government needs real checks and balances, actual power in the hands of citizens rather than billionaires.

I do not want to have to sit through every cutscenes I already know by heart.

Forget it, there’s no way you’re taking Kairi’s heart!

“Tummy hurts, gonna hard reset the situation and see if it helps.”

It’s literally how societies function. We’re seeing it collapse in real time where that’s not an option.

Kind of underselling addiction there with that “don’t want to be sober.” And ignores the mental problems that arise due to the stresses of poverty and homelessness.

All the tech fascists steal words. Palantir is from Lord of the Rings.

Encumbrance makes a lot of sense in the context of old D&D, progression was tied to how much treasure you could get out of a dungeon. It also works well in survival-type games where resource management is a key mechanic. But like many facets of old D&D it is applied widely with no consideration.

It’s very important that we find a healer or we’re going to die! But also, you can only get one camp interaction per rest so take your time~

This doesn’t bother me at all. It’s kinda weird that games are often expected to give 100% of their content to average investment players. Leave some meat on the bone for the tryhards!
