Jeez, shots fired

The two that lie in a shape are part of the first “w”

Hehe, that’s some top level spaghetti. Remember, space is cheap! It’s easier to keep it nice when there’s plenty of space around everything.

Are there any sources for this?

A covered space is easier to keep warm. Also the crater hole might well have let in rain that could be blown around by wind.

I was quite surprised when I first had to handle large amounts of cash. Securely transporting it to and from a bank is quite a hassle, and making sure you always have enough change is as well. Idk about the specific economics of it, but it’s easy to underestimate for those of us who don’t have to deal with it at scale.

It’s for sure a product of its time, but it really doesn’t feel like a 1999 movie. Around that time we had

• Sixth sense
• American beauty
• Eyes wide shut
• Being John Malkovich
• Fight Club

Matrix has such a stark level of visual and thematic modernity compared to those. Maybe Fight Club comes near, but the other movies look like they’re from a different decade.

Surely not?

Handling cash is expensive and difficult for shops, so it might make sense to not require shops to accept cash.

I guess certain crimes also become harder.

Not sure I support it, but I see that there are points to it.

I still can’t believe The Matrix is from '99. The themes and the effects hold up incredibly well, it feels far more modern.

I think it’s someone lying on their side? Like a sexy lying down pose with a leg and an arm stretched out.

Just because they’re filthy, people south of the Rhine aren’t necessarily animals…

It’s called RockShotgunPaper

Wasn’t he more criticizing the scale? Like, a sith warrior is great, but he can’t really compete with the power of the Death Star when it comes to sheer scale. Just ask Alderaan.

Those are some sweet stories :)

Arguably it is better than mining for coal, lithium, etc. since those have similar issues, but one gram of uranium contains energy similar to 3 tons of coal.

Fairly so - it isn’t emissions, and does not contribute to the problem in a meaningful way.

The reason why emissions are dangerous is because they trap solar heat at large enough scales to change the global climate. Server farm heating isn’t really anywhere near contributing at that scale.

Something like this, perhaps: https://youtu.be/HNMq8XS4LhE?si=XqWX5uZFBWKNbJAb

Looking great! Genuine cis question, when I come across fabulous looking trans people, I get really conflicted, I want to look and admire and wonder and praise, but I’m nervous that they’d really just like to blend in and not be ogled. I guess I often end up “staunchly not looking”. What’d you prefer if it was you?

I found the lines poorly written, the narrators not very convincing, and the whole concept limited and simple. It’s likely that something better comes along further into the game, but it really didn’t pull me in.

It always fascinates me that people can have such different experiences. I’m really happy you found your perfect game, wish I could see it like you see it!
