  • It's one of those industry things that are incomprehensible to outsiders. I work at a hospital, and my office is directly on the route between the ER and the morgue. I know how bad a day it's been by how many morgue carts roll by during a shift. Just one of those things.

  • Suppressing repeated notifications has been a thing since messaging has been a thing. If your service doesn't offer it, find a better one. Also, this is a hypothetical, and a bad one. Why would you not simply read the texts?

  • Point of order: Nobody in Texas has been ordered to do anything. They're completely allowed to put up razor wire under whatever rule Abbot cited. The court order was to allow the federal border guys to cut the wire if they needed to.

    Legally, Texas is allowed to put up wire, and also legally the feds are allowed to cut it. That's it. It's a literal Looney Tunes situation. The nonsense from Abbot and the rest of the Rs is just chest-puffing.

  • As someone used to Old Internet: how is having multiple communities for similar topics a 'problem'? If you like Overwatch, do you demand that Activision, Steam, and GameFAQs all combine their forums about it? If you like baking, do you demand that all of the hundreds of sites dedicated to it all blob into one? This seems like a very wierd idea to be so definite about.

  • I kinda disagree with all of this. Big abilities that come with in-universe complications are the bread and butter of RPGs. E.G. Connection: Mafia: You know a guy in the mafia you can ask for help, but he might want a favor later...

    Or think of things like Wish, etc.

    It kinda sounds like you want a wargame with a bit of story connecting the battles. Which is fine, but then just play a wargame I guess?

  • Switch to an in-universe time length.

    'This spell recharges at the next dawn, as long you have fleemed the scrabinator.'

    'This spell can be recharged by having a really good meal with your closest friends.'

    'To recharge this spell, you must sacrifice a male hare on an alter to your god under the full moon.'

    This provides a sub-task that the caster is motivated to reach for, which helps with RP and moving the story along.

  • Or, you know, the Israelis could stop bombing hospitals, undo their Constitutional amendement declaring that Israel is 'for Jews', extend the vote to the entire occupied territory, and start a justice and reconciliation commision that punishes current and past acts of bigoted violence.

    But nope, the only two possible choices are that somebody gets genocided.
