There is actually some evidence that musk was unfortunately successful at reaching some of these people. There was a lot of talk about “strange” ballots that only voted for Trump and nothing else, usually called “bullet ballots.” Well apparently part of musks outreach plan was getting to low propensity voters and telling them “don’t worry if it’s confusing, don’t worry about knowing the candidates, the only thing we need is a vote for Trump and he’ll fix everything.”

It seems like it worked out for them… :(

That comic isn’t the trolly problem though. For it to be a problem you need to give a shit about both tracks. This is just an image of the real world. :(

As far as management goes x4 foundations is an awesome space game! I have hundreds of hours in that game spent just messing around with an industrial empire, buying mining ships, setting trade routes, all that fun stuff. You don’t even have to fight anything if you don’t want to.

I’m enjoying it quite a bit!

… except for the fucking lockpicking…

Whyyy did they have to make it so much harder?! It’s so unforgiving now and they took away the noise cue! I used to be able to do it without even looking at the screen because you could hear a distinct sound when it clicked into place. Now there are 3 different drop speeds and the sounds are so minimal…

I was always pretty interested in geology, but I knew that the only secure work would be for oil companies so I never went for the degree…

I was always really interested in gems and minerals, but admiring them isn’t a job, and photography in that field is insanely specialized and not exactly a reasonable goal to shoot for, so I never got that degree…

I was also always really interested in astronomy, but there’s literally no work in that field at all so I didn’t go for the degree…

I never “found myself” because all of my interests either has you working for “the enemy” or there just weren’t any jobs to be had. Now I’m stuck working in a factory and I have an upcoming job that’s for the Israeli military…

My friend is on one of the teams working on that so I suppose I’ll know soon enough if they’re gutting that portion. So far he hasn’t said anything, so here’s hoping they’re safe!

Marketing asshats: so… How do we get more people talking about the release? No press is bad press remember!

DO THE PAID HORSE ARMOR THING!

I want to end all my cream cheese conversations like this 40% off waffle iron:

Piss on carpet.

The argument we usually see in the US is some nonsense like “you’re comparing the Democrats in America to the left globally, you can’t do that! They’re to the left of Republicans so they’re the left!”

…ughh…

You’re not alone in feeling this way for sure. I’m only still alive because I have older family members who would be devastated if I did anything to myself. Once they’re gone I can finally go too.

I love my family and want them to live happily, but like… Please don’t live to 100… I’m growing impatient lol

I’m so happy to have been wrong about the shadow drop! Now I just need to get through the rest of the day at work lol

I have a coworker that does this and he’s the type that not talking is literally impossible for him…

If he even walks anywhere near a conversation he has to insert himself into it and talk. He hangs out near another coworker usually and when that guy gets asked a question the annoying one will always start talking over the guy who was asked… He’s not even in the same role.

He’s otherwise a nice guy and all, but holy shit is he one of the most annoying people I’ve ever met…

The heritage foundation is a terrorist organization.

Booooooo… So not today. I’m doubting the same day drop. Knowing marketing asshats they’ll want to run a week or more of advertising first especially if they’re calling this a reveal. :/

It’s actually pretty fun especially if you’re watching something on another screen and just like to grind for items/levels. They have a free demo as well so I’d suggest anyone that finds this concept interesting to try it out!

They even have simulated global chat where people are assholes to each other lol very true to life.

It depends on what was needed at the time, but probably things like tools and housing. Obviously considering the time we’re talking about it would be very “primitive” lol

I’d probably be something of a builder/ “engineer.”

I’m not actually an engineer, but I have a knack for utilizing what I have around me or simple enough objects to serve other goals. I suppose I’m what people used to call a Macgyver or “mechanically inclined.”

Very true, after a certain number of cows they stop being inside your house and you start being inside their barn lol

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to have the adult conversation about what constitutes a socially acceptable number of cows to have in your house. It’s a very important conversation.

Media researchers found more than half of Canadians still say they get political news from Facebook,
