  • We already have that much food. My folks were paranoid WAAAY before the economy turned shitty so it's easier to keep up with what is already there

    If I had to do it myself with nothing to start with?

    Fun fact! Did you know a layer within the bark of a tree is edible?

  • The problem is that you won't ever get a full communist country, at least not for a very, VERY long time, because you always get those few fartweasels who end up hijacking it and turning it into a dictatorship. You need to eliminate that problem first, and with how the world is sliding into fascism, it doesn't look like we're any where near close to solving that dilemma

  • No it isn't, but it does highlight the main issue:

    Communism would work if it weren't for people trying to co-opt it for power

    Fully Automated Luxury Space Communism is the end goal (since, it being automated, means there should effectively be no way to hijack it), but we ain't getting there for a long time. Let's go for socialism first and work from there

  • That actually relieves me. Like, people going, "I won't vote/will vote 3rd party" seem to not realize that if Biden doesn't get in, Trump will, and he not only would push genocide MUCH more, but also WILL destroy the electoral system to stay in power and avoid jail.

    Hell, Project 2025 leaking proved this

    So a good reminder that the Fediverse is being echoey helps the fear some

  • Apparently it's not even Nintendo, but trolls. Just that this is such a Nintendo thing to do that GMod doesn't want to even risk it

    EDIT: So the domain is owned by MarkMonitor, a service that monitors for copyright infringement and sends DMCAs. Nintendo HAS used them before. So that clears up any confusion there

  • I've actually been writing a story with a more realistic idea on this

    Dude has the stamina to do all that walking? His mother made him do a sport and track is the only thing he could tolerate. Still ends up exhausted when he has to carry the stuff a normal adventurer has to deal with

    When he first arrives, he is flipping between trying to find the cool side of it and freaking out because, "Oh fuck uh I actually was ripped from my home"

    Lots of action happens within the first few days? Has a mental breakdown when his brain finally catches up and he can no longer distance himself by comparing it to isekai tropes

    "My modern knowledge makes things easier"? "...We uh, have magic that does that, why the hell would being able to harness electricity to make light matter? Besides, another country figured that out ages ago thanks to magic, just many of us prefer to use magic for it because cultural momentum"
