The strength of life to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.

Religion doesn’t belong
That one is enough, IMO. It’s an archaic concept we really don’t need any more. (Note: That’s not me saying we don’t need belief or belief systems. We don’t need religion.)
It’s almost as if someone could have learned something from the fact that NASA struggled hard without institutionalized deviation whenever their budget was constrained and they were pushed for results.
Also, it’s almost as if there’s a reason no good government should let any corporation go un-controlled. Ever.
Question: If you had to design a bridge, and you did, and it was built, and then you noticed it sways in the wind, would you tear it down?
And if you answer yes: This is normal. Bridges are designed with a certain level of flex in mind, and they have redundancies to allow for this. Too much is a problem of course, but a certain amount is normal and budgeted for.
And it’s similar here: The helium leaks were not planned to be there, but there’s a certain redundancy in the system which means that a certain level of helium leakage is not an issue.
I’m doing my part! 💪
Yeah I do. I disagree with most of their posts, but I agree with the motion that using the same labels indiscriminately is a problem in online discourse.
For example, far as I know so far, I’d call him a pedo, but I am unsure whether I’d call him a predator (of course, language differences apply, too). That’s just because I need words to express the predatory nature of people like Maxwell who prey on teens and YA.
That’s kinda what I meant, there’s too few words to just use the same label across the board sometimes. Doesn’t make something someone does less reprehensible. Rather i prefer to sometimes use full sentences instead of quick labels because it more accurately expresses the matter.
I did not disagree with that, so I’m not sure what you’re on about.
Yeah that’s a fair take.
It is reprehensible and disgusting behavior, but it doesn’t mean we should universally apply labels across vast swaths of different issues, as it devalues said label and poisons future discussion.
Simple labels simplify discussion of course, but that runs the risk of losing nuance for the specific way someone was a disgusting creep.
Yeah, I decided to nope out after the beginning, too. Seen too much shit in the one year I volunteered at the hospital, don’t need a reminder of those. What the fuck…
Nah, it’s not that old.
*looks it up*
Fuuuuuck I’m old! 😭
I think one possible resolution for increasing the popularity of RTS is to take a hybrid real time approach. You can build and do things in real time, but under the hood battles and the economy operate in discrete chunks of at least several seconds.
Come to think of it, I saw two approaches that were similar to this before:
I’m not disagreeing, although I will say that as I have aged, I started to prefer either of:
I don’t know. I just no longer find the extra stress from the real-time element engaging. I used to love it, but preferences shift of course, and now I prefer the relaxation of taking my own time to figure out what I want to do, then checking whether I “solved the puzzle”, basically.
Damn this looks amazing. Like Papers Please but with a cannon instead of two stamps.

Yet… silence.
Imagine never reading any news or discussions about environmental impact, but coming in here trying to defend Keurig by doing full whataboutism.
I think the problem is not in pod-based single-serving coffee machines. Those are common, and well-loved for a reason.
But there are easily available alternatives that do the exact same thing without requiring so much plastic, namely Senseo coffee pads (they’re grounds in coffee filter paper) or CoffeeB and its compressed coffee grounds balls (so it’s all just coffee ground, both the coffee and the pod). Probably a fair few more I don’t know about personally.
Possibly even Nestle with their Nescafe pods. They’re aluminium but some countries achieve effectively 100% recycling on that, then the only issue is the filter membrane they place inside and I don’t know whether that is easily separated during recycling or not.
Thank you for beating me to mention this.
K-cups are really amazinlgy bad. And it’s not like there aren’t much better solutions available. Philips has those fully bio-degradable pads, a local store now sells a type of coffee maker that uses just the coffee powder in balls where the outer shell is compressed grounds that is cracked open to get to the powder inside.
But no, Keurig and their fucking oceans of plastic waste.
Ugh, I know the games are divisive, but for me they really did not work at all. I can’t even truly say why. They were below-expectations, yeah, but not terribly so. Just didn’t connect.
I got the same issue with FF16, tbh. While FFX worked for me (even though I’m weird, and think FFX-2 is better 😅).
Do the models appear finished before you even start printing?
Ugh. How to kill all hype in one headline.
