Makes me imagine stock image sites in the near future. Where your search term ("man looks angrily at a desktop computer") gets a generated image in addition to the usual list of stock photos. Maybe it would be cheaper. I imagine i

The current situation with abortion will pose a threat similar to the slavery divide. There's a clear division of states which allow it and those with bans. Some of the states with bans are threatening prosecution of women who cross st

I hope you realize the fallacy of proclaiming a "crisis" based purely on anecdotal evidence.

From what I can tell, people in America generally work and they work hard. American productivity is usually high. I'm not seeing any large waves of unproductive twentysomethings. It's always strange to me when critics look at this

I should add: the aesthetics of the game are also great. It's all water-powered (and sometimes wind-powered) wooden gears and buildings. I'd call it steampunk in looks, but I guess it's more waterpunk (?). The building system

It's extremely playable. If they had called this a full release, and not early access, I would have believed them. The district system is a pain at first. It's different than every other city builder and tycoon system out there. B

At night, I sometimes scroll through the live TikTok streams. There's one I've really come to enjoy. Some drag strip somewhere in Texas is open to almost all comers. People bring in their street cars or custom vehicles. And duel i

I was amused by this from the article: > As it was probably thought that secret writing would not appeal to girls, the coding/decoding facilities were omitted from the manual. Whoever made that decision at Mattel was probably male a

It's sad how much has changed in the past 10+ years. I remember arguments advocating for ipv6 for exact reason. 1 device per 1 ip. Back then, it was seen as something great. I agree with what you said. It's just interesting how it

Do weed shops in legal states not have "light" options? Seems weird if they didn't, but I guess that might be a side effect of recent legalization. That the heavy stuff sells better to consumers who used to take whatever they

> People want boring, safe experiences Looking at the popularity of the Soulslike games, I don't think that's true. I think what people want is a system which feels fair. A big part of fairness is not letting randoms online des

The market's largely spoken. They don't want a new WoW. WoW does still have millions of players and is a recognizable part of pop culture. Though much less than it used to be. FFXIV seems to have around the same numbers these days

I enjoy Twitter but I agree with your assessment. Disagree a little about Facebook though. No argument about FB the company being soulless, evil, etc. But FB groups can be a great experience. Especially the smaller ones focused on a niche s

I was worried this would happen to me. I made an entry in my notes app. "Doctor Harry Bottomsmith 801-421-8623 9 am Friday" where 4218 was my PIN. That's saved me a few times when I blanked out. This note, in theory, will loo
