AI will analyse video of dirty bums and generate the exact pressure and aim required to get them clean.

Or maybe that’s not a sin 😏

Can he just run as someone else’s VP and then the someone else abdicates or whatever? No messing with constitution required. Obviously requires a lot of trust though.

I think it’s both. You activate and deactivate it in the mods menu.

I didn’t realise the new stuff was mods and I’ve just been playing regular factorio for the last week. I should have been in space two science packs ago!

Shadows of Doubt

An alternate universe corpo city filled with generated crimes to solve. You get a case board, scan for fingerprints/footprints, talk to witnesses, look up sales records, check out cctv cameras among loads of other stuff. All of it is happening live in the city - everyone has schedules, an apartment, a workplace, an inventory, an email account, a blood type, a shoe size… - so that murder/kidnapping/robbery literally happened in the game while you were crawling through vents looking for an envelope with sensitive documents that someone asked you to steal. Just yesterday I got to a crime scene super quickly and caught a murderer leaving the scene of the crime with the murder weapon on their person. There are deus ex style body augmentations too.

One of my favourite cases was a woman who got murdered. I had the husband pegged for it but couldn’t pin it on him. His fingerprints were all over the place and he was on the cctv but they lived together so that wasn’t really evidence. The case went cold. A couple of days later the HUSBAND is murdered and I’m stumped. Just go looking for anything related to the guy and hope I stumble across something useful by accident. So eventually I break into the husband’s boss’ apartment and find a bouquet of flowers with a note for the boss from the husband. It turns out the husband is having a secret gay affair with his boss. The boss kills the wife so he can be with the husband. Husband doesn’t want to be with a murderer I guess so the boss kills him too!

It’s occasionally a little buggy still. I was supposed to follow someone, take a photo of a briefcase handoff, follow the recipient and get the briefcase back and have done this type of case before. Yesterday though the handoff never happened and I waited with the original owner for a few in game hours. My guess is the recipient is dead or was someone I knocked out earlier while I was solving another case and I messed up their schedule.

In case you’re in this situation in future, you can use section breaks before and after the page and give the middle section a different header/footer. It’s still not great because you can’t (to my knowledge) tie the section before to the section after so now you have to change both the first and third sections any time you want to adjust the main header/footer.

When did they add Frostmourne to the game? Need that mog ASAP

No jesus was not a fuck baby, Mary probably was. Immaculate conception is not the same as virgin conception. Immaculate means God did not curse her for the sins of Adam and Eve (which God had previously done with everyone else), which is usually called “original sin”

Truly it’s a hard game even if there were no cylons. Humans rarely win in my games. Alas, it’s out of print 😭. Its spiritual successor Unfathomable seems good as well, though I’ve only played it once

Then you discover the board game and it’s a whole new level of great

Linear housing, quadratic taxes

I have a colleague who is trying hard to do it, but it isn’t good enough yet fortunately. I point out as many issues as I can to deter him but it ain’t working.

Or the person telling the story lies some of the time in which case it’s not a riddle and you’re just talking to a normal person

With the way multiverses are so in right now, more likely he’ll reappear as Hawk from Titans

For anyone as dumb as me, these are types of university degree.

KG is also in two other bands, he has his own shit going on

In practice, this makes these networks very resilient to fraud.

Could like, 51% of the owners just coordinate to kind of, do a fraud?

Sybil attacks sound like the kind of thing you’re talking about. I don’t have the expertise to go into it, but one person (or a group) creates lots of nodes and uses that influence to do bad things to the network, potentially including fraud. Or as you suggest, legitimate users can just coordinate to do whatever they wanted (see ethereum vs ethereum classic if you want a chuckle).

I want to make a note that the networks are only resilient to a specific type of fraud - people trying to enter data in a way that doesn’t meet the criteria of the system. That’s all well and good for wallet to wallet transactions, but when you have transactions going off chain (like buying something, trading for other kinds of coins, doing anything with crypto exchanges), there are still plenty of other kinds of fraud that are possible and happen all the time, because while the chain is fairly trustworthy, nothing else about the system is. Most kinds of fraud involve doing things that technically you have permission to do, because you lied to people to access their password or promised them bigger returns in the future or missold a product or service etc and all of that is still possible under crypto. In some cases crypto is more vulnerable to these things because of having no central authority or regulator or laws or whatever.

sadness-sadness would be depression.

Wait I thought the implication in the first film was that depression was when your emotion console thing stops working and you can’t feel properly at all. Granted it’s years since I seen it

All makes perfect sense, thanks for explaining!
