This is the rule I've tried to follow. Exceptions for vulnerable people. When I'm pushing the pram though I'm getting the inside lane.

Daily, but on a much smaller, pettier scale. What if I'm wiping my ass wrong? Nobody taught me exactly how to do it, and it's not like anybody is around to notice and say "hey, you know you do it like this?"

I try not to think about my own opinions on big picture stuff as I can spiral fast.

amazed at what a birch you are

That's just an incredible play

I might have to install fortnight again for a quick shot at this. I've never knowingly voice chatted with an AI yet and want a go.

I'm excited for this sort of thing to be properly implemented in games, it's only a matter of time, and wouldn't mind a sneak preview.

Would a dipping sauce change your mind at all? They stop being the worst part of pizza and start being luxury breadsticks.

In my defence I said "certain kind". You must have met some. You tell them to press the green box that says [OK] and they just look at the screen confounded. You tell them to use their finger and they try and give it you back saying they don't know how to work it.

I tried showing one VR, and they just stood there motionless saying it's not working. I tell him "you need to actually move your arms, like you're there, press that button in front of you with your actual hands" "what hands" "your real hands holding the controllers you need to actually do it like it's real". Stands there motionless for another 10 seconds. "No. It's not working. It's not doing anything." Forget it. Come off the thing.

If there's one of these people in the room Jackbox will quickly become a tedious chore.

Boring TV shows tend to make money. Daytime TV for pensioners. It's boring as hell but you're at work, or streaming content, or on the tiktoks doing virals for dings.

Broadcast TV, where most shows still come from, are not for you. You ever notice just how many procedural cop shows there are?

Viricide sounds like a topical cream for an STD

blood is not magnetic

I thought it had iron in it? I mean you're right about the MRI, I never thought about it until this thread.

no one gives a shit about international law nowadays

Scares the living shit out of me. The only reason it's them and not me is because I happened to not be born there, and if it can happen to them with no repercussions, it can happen to us.

Quick warning about Jackbox, older people may struggle. It's incredibly simple, nearly foolproof, but there's just a certain kind of old person who becomes completely toddler-esque useless around technology.

I still give the recommendation a +1 though. It's cracking fun.

Is there a word for killing someone because he's a man? Not trying to be "that guy" but I literally only just heard the word femicide and am curious.

I don't think it's rational today, but I don't have anything more than gut feeling to back it up. I do think it will be realistic quite soon though. It's not hard to imagine a world even more digital than today.

Honestly are you OK?

As is psting and h***f and aj.

I always liked the idea of twitter but then humans human'd all over it. If everyone agreed to only use it for sensible things I'd love it so much. Useful announcements and updates and so on.

If I follow a singer for instance, I want to hear about concert announcements, album release dates and the like. I don't want my feed filled with their opinions on global economics or hot dog condiments.

Yeah, there are good reasons to want to know where someone's from, but pushing the issue for no reason with a near stranger is kind of weird.

Would it be possible to "just" fly over and food-bomb them?

It's just an invitation though right? He's not actually planning on actually coming here? This is when you bump into someone and say "yeah let's get a drink sometime" and you fucking hope they don't actually do it, right?

Mine is slightly similar. I'm back in school at playtime and in the sky you can see the planets lining up, each one slightly overlapping the next to make like a chain of them. The largest one like 3x wider than the moon, the smallest about moon size. I'm running around freaking out telling everyone and nobody gives a shit. The only person I can convince to even look up just tells me "yeah so what they always do that". Then it gets nighttime dark really quick and I wake up panicking.
