Oh shit I don't want to be a poor people I need to get something with spatial computing!

The new goggles have a feature that merges digital apps and one’s surroundings into one immersive space

Isn't this just AR? We've had that for years. Or is it somehow different from existing AR?

It's beautiful 🥲

As much as I want things to collapse too I don't think that's a good thing. A lot of the people who built up Seattle and it's culture got priced out, if things collapse the tech workers are all going to leave (more than they already are). Tons of desperate people will be left and the city will do an even worse job at maintaining the infrastructure.

Maybe it needs to burn down to get built back up better but I wouldn't say I'm hopeful for it because that could mean decades of hardship for people who don't deserve it. If this does all go sideways though and I haven't left the country by then, Seattle is my ride or die in the US. I feel so at home here and I'll be in the dirt trying to bring life back to the city.

Why is everyone @-ing the same group of people in this post?

The problem here is not about any one persons YouTube habits. It's that we've been pouring so much into it as a group that if it goes away it'll be torching even more history. The Internet has a bad problem with losing things and it is already making finding old data difficult. This is especially noticable with games or even more specifically mods. Morrowind mods have a long and vibrant history of being lost forever because the hosts kept changing and archives going under. There are many games and mods I played as a kid that are gone now and forums talking about them that are also gone. YouTube is a single point of failure for a ton of video history and losing that history is generally considered to be A Bad Thing ™️

I'd never support a tag for pointy eared leaf lovers that's going to far

For rock and stone!

I needed something like this in my life

they can STILL get punished if the market goes "Yeah, but our analysts expected you to bring in $921 million in profit."

This happened to the company I'm in. We had record profits, were positive for the first time in years, and beat our goals by a decent bit. Stock prices tanked anyway because "the best we've ever done" wasn't good enough for the shareholders.

I live in a corner apartment with floor to ceiling windows. I leave the blinds open all the time because I just couldn't care less if people see what I'm up to. I'm in Seattle, nudity is legal here, and I already go around topless a lot in the summer heat. Doesn't bother me at all if someone sees me clipping my toenails naked or whatever mundane stuff I'm up to I'm just being human. Maybe if I were on the ground floor within full gawking distance I'd feel more like a spectacle but at least in this unit I'm just another person nobody's going to pay much attention to

I'm pretty sure it is rooted in the stereotype that Mexican food gives people the shits, paired with fast food in general can fuck with people's guts. Doesn't help that taco bell actively goes out of their way to make unholy abominations... They've been the source of a couple food poisoning and salmonella outbreaks but that's just a lettuce/produce thing iirc and hits a lot of places

inappropriate slurs

This implies there are appropriate slurs??

I'm not engaged because the company I'm in keeps firing everyone and I spend every day wondering if it is me or someone I rely on who is next. I also got in right as the last of the small company culture was getting strangled by big corp nonsense so I've basically just been adjusting from one game plan to the next every month for the last couple years, while listening to what's left of the old guard talk about how much better everything used to be. I spend more time in meetings about all the different bureaucracies I have to engage in than I do working on anything meaningful

If the ghouls completely take over it will be only them who use these laws

That'll fly all over the place. Handle slightly offset with a forearm strap equally offset the other way, much better support with two anchor points

As someone with a lot of memory problems, it's actually pretty spooky feeling and confusing losing any memories good or bad. Idk probably that's different per person but even when I forget the bad the sense of loss is for real plus the "who am I" existential dread.

The fee CGC charges though is based on the value of the item. The reasoning I got was because they couldn't determine a value they didn't know what to charge for their fee and eventually I just told them to send it back (this was after months of trying to figure it out). It has been a while though so maybe better luck this time around? I didn't know about CBCS either so might just try them thank you for the suggestion

Depends what you're in the mood for:

• I personally love Paranoia. It is very much a comedy game but it can be played with a serious take with the right work. Plus it is just a fun read even if you don't play it.
• Rifts is pretty baller conceptually but I don't have first hand experience playing it.
• GURPS has a Car Wars crossover making it objectively one of the best games, can be played with any level of tech, and has buckets of supplements.
• The Burning Wheel is more fantasy but the book is basically a philosophy of play which could be adapted to lots of things, and the same author wrote Burning Empires which is more scifi but I haven't acquired that one so can't give first hand info on it either.
• Can't forget Car Wars. It is scifi though it is a mix of ttrpg and strategy/board. If you want to drive a car off a cliff while dropping mines on a helicopter as you go by and have your robot gunner leaning out the window shooting lasers at a tank it is the way to go.
• Finally I'll pitch HōL because the game is just so unhinged. It is all hand written and scanned, it's edgy and crass, and is a great parody of roleplaying games. It's engaging and fun to read with great art but realistically quite difficult to functionally play because the rules are intentionally a mess. The Buttery Wholesomeness supplement added character creation rules which don't exist in the base game because it is a mess.
