Don’t forget to clean your horse off every few hours by brushing it in the same spot 3 times. Just… Why

I’m really curious about your idea of a well-executed open world. Can you give an example? Also about the caring about the plot. I could argue your point about not caring about the fate of the central characters for any game.

Thanks!

So for a total novice could you elaborate on this? Like why a certain build is better for gaming?

So is Mint still the easiest distro? I think I’m switching for good this time.

Some of the terminology is from Dan Simmons’ Hyperion series.

Haiti should have just patiently waited to gain their independence.

Just come to Eastern Europe where every trend arrives a decade later.

Ok I just don’t see a reasonable way that less children helps to fight the oligarchy. Not having enough nurses to take care of all the dying boomers does what to further the cause? Eliminating labor doesn’t work the same way as withholding labor. I can’t exactly imagine a childless adult union so what would the plan even be?

Who do you think suffers most during economic turmoil though? If you want to fuck up the economy in a productive way you need mass action, for which you need a mobilized working class. Reducing the number of workers doesn’t help with this.

Yeah funny thing is this is basically what we’re already doing. China’s one child policy and neoliberal austerity everywhere else ensured the current generation of children is smaller than ever. We’re running the experiment now, and overall we’d be fine if the countries that have negative growth rates weren’t so xenophobic and let immigrants in to replace their ageing workforce.

Twenty years ago I would have agreed, there’s too many people, but now the pendulum is swinging the other way.

I used to think this. Then I remembered everyone will get old and no one will be around to run the economy.

Here’s a great exposition on 37.

I recently moved to the Czech Republic and found out that their hotdogs are already like this. The meat cylinder goes into a tube. It makes so much more sense than the sandwich!

So instead of a janitor you become a robot technician. No thanks.

It sounds however your own biases make it sound. This is a dumb game.

Ok, not what I meant at all. Especially the part about making things up (why insert this?). I just meant that there’s no rule that small talk has to stay as such. You’re making it seem like I meant one should be an unhinged narcissist bragging about their life while ignoring everyone around them.

If you have an interesting life then you can commandeer small talk and make it interesting. It’s an opportunity to introduce other material.

“We didn’t start the fire…” But you guys threw a bunch of petroleum and coal and tar sands on it

So the first sentence says TV and movie streaming replacement is trivial… Can you elaborate for someone who still uses the pirate bay for movies?
