I was looking for a winter jacket a few years ago and tried Amazon. I was scrolling through, and I wasn’t finding anything. So I sorted by price, high to low, thinking, I’m not poor I can splurge on a nice jacket.

Top of the list was a jacket for $20K. I decided to stop saying shit like “I’m not poor”.

I don’t think there is a James Bond origin story. So it would be original and not a reboot.

And usually just take pictures of things at work as a note taking method.

I don’t know the physics behind it, or if it’s even true (could just be a placebo effect), but if you scrunch the paper there is less streaking on the clean up.

Sure. But the folks who put the knowledge in a digestible format should be rewarded for their efforts.

What are you farming in 20 min that gets a billion credits?

I set up a Stasis Device farm and can get ~300 million in about 10 minutes. Just curious if I can do something a little more efficient.

I believe it’s “Medical Assistance In Dying”.

Unfortunately talent is less important than branding.

Hey he’s not exactly wrong. The company who can release humanoid automatons would very likely be the richest company in the world. Exponentially richer.

But I’ve seen what comes out of Tesla. I’m not betting that will be the company that does it.

Your reasoning is solid, but I’m not sure I’d trust someone who steals and bribes to honour their word.

Shit like this is why I always demand full payment up front. It’s just a shame I have no influence to garner bribes.

I’d estimate that 90%+ of us would be dead in a matter of months if not weeks.

Consider the significant lack of food available. Think about how much food the average person has in their house. Probably a week, maybe two. Perhaps a month if you’re wise and start rationing immediately. But most won’t. Most people would be in denial at the start and assume someone or something would rescue us.

Now consider how much food there is available at your local grocery store. And how many people that store could feed. Compare that to the population of the geographic area that store supports and you’ll see that for the most part we would be out of food in a matter of months.

Sure we could scavenge and perhaps hunt small game, but that’s limited and not something most people could do. But to get to a point where we’re actually able to do some level of substance farming, that could take up to a year to complete depending on the season society collapses. Before we get there most of us would have staved to death. Probably too many would die and there wouldn’t be enough labour to work the farms either.

And that’s just considering food. There’s still the issue of clean potable water, and infections or other health issues that turn deadly quickly without modern medical intervention.

And these issues are all compounded if you live in a high density urban environment. Which many do.

TLDR: if society collapses, it might be wise to just bow out before things get really bad.

As others say…. Multiple monitors for work. One big ultra wide for gaming.

My only “complaint” about ultra wide is that most gaming ui’s aren’t configured for them. Meaning that to look at the mini map in a game like Cyberpunk, you have to take your eyes off the centre of the screen. Then you will crash your car.

I don’t think that’s entirely accurate. There were other paths to citizenship (iirc something akin to the peace corps and perhaps even business success? It’s been a while since I read it). But it wasn’t just military. It’s just that military was the easiest for most people.

As a metaphysical solipsist, I haven’t decided yet.

“Not a fan” is generous imo. That looks like a beta project rushed to production.

My first glance at the title was that it was one six year old responsible for 60% of playtime.

AFAIK, it’s not the legality per se that keeps the actual incest off the provider, but that credit card companies won’t allow their cards to be used to pay for such services.

But I’m just a regular pervert on the internet. I’m only parroting what I read online.

How you gonna write all that and not even give a hint at what Means Testing is?

Missing the mod that allows one to plant in a grid. That’s the only really essential mod you need any more.

And here I thought the Jewish faith didn’t have an afterlife?

So much conflicting information in this religion thing. I think I’ll just avoid it all together.
