I've had a rough week :(

That would require data to be saved.

If any such thing happened, it would be seemless.

Nope

It could have happened a dozen times already.

If your data is in memory only, crashing will revert to the latest save, which could be forever ago.

This one resonates with me. I fucking love science fiction, and when they forced me to read The Giver, the closest they every got to science fiction, I actually enjoyed it. And then the rest of the time I hated it all.

If I had actually been given the chance to read some good science fiction, I would have been reading a lot more as a kid.

2nding this, but also I'm looking forward to KSA, hoping it can be the true successor

If you like building sets, you should check out Rolling Line.

That wouldn't be very lava chicken of you to do, to ruin a phrase like that.

I was recently introduced to Death in Space.

Things that I like about it:

• it's a simple system
• it's got cool lore (the universe is dying, aberrations are infiltrating the local solar system, all ships and technology is scavenged)
• it's got some overlapping mechanics with 5e, which makes introducing it simple (advantage, d20 checks, etc)
• it's got some nice rules for ship combat, space walks, etc
• combat turns are basically just go next if you have something, then the enemies do their thing, and players coordinate on whatever works best for them

My fiancé was running it, but lost the time to continue running it. I might take over with my own group soon.

Good

Just finished them instead of reading them right now, but "The Left Hand of Darkness" and "The Dispossessed" by Ursula K. Le Guin. I liked the world building of the first far better, but it didn't hit at the politics I wanted to read about as much as I wanted, the second being the opposite.

I don't know why, but I just need content wrapped in sci-fi for me to find it enjoyable, and "The Dispossessed" in particular was what I was looking for, an exploration of anarchism grounded in examples and thought experiment.

Both of them are fantastic books, and definitely worth a read for anybody interested in science fiction, sexuality & gender, and anarchism.

That tends to happen in autocratic states.

Horrifying, I love it.

It could definitely use a cover for the gears though. It'd be kinda gross to get the lube on your hands using this thing.

Like I said to /u/entwine413 I am talking more generally, not just about literal files.

I'm not talking about just the files. I'm talking more generally.

To own something is to control it.

You clearly don't have control, therefore you don't own it, microsoft does. You can fix that by seizing the means of computation and install linux.

Somebody take a shit on him

Party of small government everybody. If they didn't have double standards and lies, they wouldn't have any standards or things to talk about.

Thank fuck

Hopefully he wins the general
