But stabbing your neighbor isn’t exactly something most people are willing to do.

And any sort of attempt at organization leads to Alphabet Squad raids and whatever bullshit charges they feel like throwing at you after deciding you’re guilty of being a dirty commie/socialist/librul/not them.

Every single company pouring money into the incinerator is positive they’ll be the one to crack actually useful AI or even actual GAI.

My favorite part of control is how they go into juuuuuuust a little bit of explaining how things work in a science way, and sometimes you can almost feel how things are connected, and then it’s like “Yeah we have no fucking clue how any of this actually works, we’re just trying to keep it all from destroying the universe and keeping notes along the way.”

And then you meet the next thing that almost makes sense. Until it doesn’t.

I don’t remember if I ever finished AW but I do believe I have the disk around here somewhere. The control dlc definitely rekindled my interest.

Control was great

I love games that make me think outside the box

Step 1: block archiebot

Step 2: enjoy about 75% reduced spam

“hey let’s release the same thing over and over again, charge almost full game price for it, and whenever something new comes out, just delete everything they’ve already paid for.”

“hey why aren’t people continuing to buy our game…”

Yeah. Great mystery, that one.

Bungie will never get another dollar from me.

Five) is a good one. Like “oh shit… I fucked this one up too much, I guess I’ll see how it turns out but I’m gonna start over with a new batch”

I’d love to see someone more creative with writing than me do some writing prompts with that premise. Maybe have someone from this universe ascend or something and actually confronts god as they’re spending time with their new family creation.

六> is also a good one, it reminds me of the idea that every single person is God. And when all of humanity has finally lived and died, god will become a single consciousness and join the rest of their kind. It kind of pairs poetically with Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot.

The way I figure it, one of a few possibilities is true:

1 there is a god. He lets all the bad shit happen, and therefore isn’t worthy of dedication.

B: there is no god. Shit happens. Nobody is there to be worthy of dedication.

III- there is a god. It kicked off the big bang and sat back to watch. Either it has the ability to affect positive change and doesn’t, or it can’t. In which case, it’s still not worthy of dedication.

The end result is the same for me

Even when nobody mentions you, you still show up to let everyone know…

It’ll just be more gun control for the poor.

There are a lot of things the government is perfectly happy to let you own as long as you can pay the extra fees and permits.

Me, every time my wife tells me a story of her childhood dealing with her narcissist mother, enabling father, both of whom were neglectful and emotionally abusive to all their children, and her insane sister who for reasons too numerous to count, deserves a spot in whatever hell is the worst one.

Most people are too lazy or stupid to take the initiative though

Full stop, go fuck yourself.

I still sometimes hit ctrl/alt/del to open the task manager if I’m not thinking.

Too many years of doing that when I was younger and it only brought up the task manager.

It’s the same reason I can’t watch people play games.

If I’m watching a let’s play, I’m yelling at the screen inside 5 minutes because the player missed the SUPER FUCKING OBVIOUS SLIGHTLY HIDDEN DOOR GO BACK AND GET THE LOOT YOU MISSED OH MY GOD

and if I try to watch someone play in-person, I’m still screaming, it’s just all internal.

You have to follow up any looks or double takes with something exra.

“Oh don’t worry. That’s for after.” wiggles eyebrows

Idk how hard water coding is, but I imagine it’s hard since good looking water seems rare.

That is some damn fine looking water

Excellent shots.
