  • so many good options on here already so I’ll add one that’s a little more of a dedicated game:

    Arkham lcg.

    you create a deck that represents the character you will play in a series of approximately eight games where you cooperatively work through Lovecraftian mysteries loaded with interesting stories lore and twists.

    has almost a tabletop RPG feel to it if it was converted to a card game, absolutely love it.





  • people look at this stuff as a yes or no and that’s a major misunderstanding.

    I work in tech, and I can tell you 100% you could not just give a job to AI and call it a day.

    I cannot even imagine this type of response generation ever being capable of that without developing some sort of true intelligence if for no other reason than to turn bad prompts by people who do not understand what they want or what is possible into functional projects.

    that said, but I do believe is possible is that it makes like 5 to 10% of the job a little bit faster. programming is like 10 to 20% writing code and 80 to 90% understanding what that code should be and why it isn’t working that way yet.

    Even the code you get from it is generally wrong but sometimes useful.

    best case scenario I could see right now is not that it replaces jobs but that it makes people more effective, kind of like giving a framer a nail gun instead of a box of nails and a hammer except not that big of an efficiency gain.

    ultimately this might mean you do the job with 8 people instead of 10, or something like that.

    if it reduced the total number of jobs because it was a tool that made people more effective - did it take the job away?






  • yeah they definitely need to improve degradation time, but there absolutely is reason to use them instead of TP.

    I don’t use all the time but tried them during recovery based on the recommendation of the surgeon that removed my hemorrhoids.

    significantly easier on the healing bum than tp was, bidet gets most of it but you’re not 100% clean every time.

    (I don’t think I’ve ever not had to wipe a time or two even after lots of movement and higher pressure on bidet. wipes clean better than tp, and bidet just doesn’t get everything unless you’re one of those lucky people that wouldn’t use much tp anyway)






  • maybe I am missing something that I don’t see why that is an objectionable position? like obviously the ceasefire needs to happen immediately but what is wrong with hostage release as part of it?

    not that long ago politicians were doing anything they could to avoid the word ceasefire and now they’re actively calling for it I’m really not thinking that this is an unchanged position but I am willing to listen if I have some drastic misunderstanding.


  • honestly doesn’t it seem like this change of direction is him listening? Even weeks ago I would have never thought I would have heard the words ceasefire out of his mouth.

    to me this seems like a direct response of the message people sent to him with the Michigan primary and I am happy to see it.

    doesn’t mean I’m happy with what he’s done so far or even that he has not immediately taken direct action but this is a pivot and failing to acknowledge it weakens protest actions like this in the future.
