You're not allowed to keep Jackie hopped on stims in the Delamain until you reach Vic but two hours earlier you had a cutscene moment where you stim a hostage to wake her back up from basically death.
Leviathan doesn't work as a first name, you'll get picked on. That's one that you need to keep on reserve as a middle name so it can be pulled out when necessary.
Meanwhile Sigurd Felix Wolfgang Atreides has 5 kids and two wives by the fifth grade and will be the coolest kid you've ever met.
I genuinely believe something like this is what some of my professors wanted me to submit back in school. I once got a couple points off a project for not having a clarifying comment on every single line of code. I got points off once for not comment-clarifying a fucking iterator variable. I wish I could see what they would have said if I turned in something like this. I have a weird feeling that this file would have received full marks.
I've been buying skateboard sims trying to chase the high I got from Skate 3 but none of the more modern ones are able to replicate the sheer fun of it somehow. I no longer own a ps3 and Skate3 runs like shit on an emulator so my options seem limited.
Re: The MUD situation, I know from personal experience that Iron Realms has still been cranking out a few of them in the last few years. I was a big fan of Starmourn but that one just got demoted to Legacy recently, I guess because of lack of players. Shame because it was really neat and polished. But they've got a triumvirate of Lusternia, Achaea (my personal favorite) and Aetolia as active MUD worlds.
Now granted Iron Realms is a whole ass company, not just some nerd hosting a game off his basement server rack strictly out of love for the game, and open source self-hosting enthusiasts may not be super jazzed about that. But as far as I can tell they're about as harmless as a company can be and do seem to still be in business more as a labor of love than anything else. At least as far as I've ever been able to find out. They mostly exist on donations so far as I know, I've never had to buy anything from them or been served an ad. And I do really, really like their Nexus client, the interface is really slick and it adds a lot of features and conveniences that I found lacking in other older MUD clients (though, granted, the only non-Iron Realms MUD I ever put any significant amount of time into was Aardwolf and I think I had to use a third party client for that).
All that said, MUD is a dying genre and any influx of new users would help revitalize many of these worlds. If it sounds interesting to you don't hesitate to go check it out. Veteran users have always been universally helpful in my experience, unless they have an actual lore appropriate reason to be hostile to you - then, watch out! Although even most of those guys won't stomp on a brand new noob without warning. Players who enjoy social roleplay will find themselves at home in a MUD. Players who enjoy social roleplay and have, or gain, a little bit of scripting knowledge will find themselves especially at home in a MUD. Give one a shot, they're free and fun and it'll raise your typing speed a lot.
Yeah and besides, what the fuck are the cops going to do if they did respond to it? Swim out there and catch the boat? They'd have watched it hit the bridge just like everyone else.
We've been able to stick an electrode to the outside of your head and pull electrical activity data from your brain without invasive open-skull surgery for a couple decades now. Neuralink hasn't actually accomplished anything new except making this same thing way, way more expensive and way, way more likely to end in death of the patient.
but why even build such a """feature""", if you'd get sued to hell and back for it in any self-respecting country?
Just don't activate it in self-respecting countries. And in America, wow, look at all this free data that is being stored on our servers! Surely we can parse that for something interesting and sell it or train an AI on it. Once users get used to it we can even charge them for the privelege.
When you find any business decision that makes no sense and you ask "why the fuck would they do that??" just follow the money trail and you'll find your answer. It's always about money. Every time.
Plus, if he did sue for libel, how would he ever get paid?
It's hardly even about getting paid at this point, I just want to see them rack up the high score. Left to his own devices I'm very confident that Trump can increase his own punitive damages beyond the actual GDP of the US.
I can defeat the world's most dangerous apex predator in unarmed one on one combat. The human. It's me, I would defeat myself, I would die trying to fight off any animal in this thread.
Wolverines are a very puntable size but if you put your foot that close to one that's picking a fight, you're not getting that foot back. I would also consider snakes to be "puntable" strictly speaking but wouldn't recommend trying. You might get it over the back fence but the chances you come back unscathed are slim at best.
Counterpoint: the potential for harmful abuse from a source that has proven itself willing and capable of it, can in itself be harmful abuse. With that action Spez pointed out "your reality is mine. I can make you say anything I want and there's nothing you can do about it." So, then, people stopped saying things, one of the contributing factors to which was the fact that Spez could just sockpuppet your account whenever he wanted, to say anything at all.
That sounds like an abusive relationship to me. It creates reliability issues like you said, it breaks the bond of trust, and that won't be restored. The damage is done at this point regardless whether he ever took it farther than the initial threat.

It's fucking bullshit
