about your second point: the text outside the speech bubbles symbolises background noise, e.g. friday i’m in love is playing in the room.

we’re in web 3.0 now, apis and data access are a thing of the past. so scraping it is!

i expected like… a generic file or media organiser. but no, it’s literally designed just for porn. til.

it’s gonna start counting as prostitution, which is legal to practice but illegal to buy. of only counts when it’s personalised, apparently. i have no idea how they think they’re gonna do it.

right, that’s what i’m saying. what they did with the blurring of lines in tlj could have gone even further. what if there is no “light side”, it’s all just puritanical bullshit by a bunch of dried-up space monks that unilaterally decide what’s good or evil. they’re basically thought police.

oookay.

considering the previous entry, who knows.

the main thing was that while jj leaned heavily on the ot, johnson took things from the prequels. say what you want about them but at least they continued the story rather than rehashing it. of the top of my head, the most interesting thing they weave into the narrative is the possibility that the jedi and sith balance thing was based on a complete misunderstanding of the force. this ties back to not only the eu but also episodes 1-3, and opens up the gray jedi and force-witch paths again, not to mention that it basically retcons midichlorians. they also tried getting rid of the prophecy crap, which didn’t make sense to begin with.

man, i was hoping for less action more puzzles. the setting lends itself so well to that.

i much prefer where rian johnson was going, even though the main plot was meh. he left so many open plot threads that tied into the old eu that they could have used, but then jj went back to his first idea.

unless you’re swedish, where it’s illegal to make requests on of.

ps

i have the theme song ready

is this where the boof pack hangs out?

because it’s actually great

i mean, think about it. the more people you have, the more counters you can have. you make your districts so there’s at most a few thousand people per district, and you designate a counter (or three) from each district. then you get a few central counters per region to verify the district counts. the more people you have, the more you can decentralise.

takes about a day or two to get the results.

it is a very random number. it’s also a very large small number.

that doesn’t seem related but it sure is interesting that it’s the same number

no, voting is a lot older than computers.

put it this way, do you know how all the software in your phone works? because i could describe to you every step of our voting process and you can request to be present at every step to follow, open, and tally the ballots. with electronic voting, all that’s out the window.

someone brought a voting machine to defcon a few years ago as a “try to hack this thing” project but it basically turned out to be pre-hacked.
