They shouldn't be required for employment or taking part in sports. So sports with roided up monsters destroying each other until their hearts explode? Surprised this isn't already a thing lol.

I've rarely found a game that had a reasonable balance between crafting and looting. Often the crafting aspect feels like an afterthought, something they decided to tack on at the last minute and gets shoehorned into a game world that isn't balanced for it. That, or crafting is so potent and necessary that actual loot is nothing but trash and reagents, and your progress is gated by needing to build a Mithril Grappling Hook or whatever. Some games try to address this by giving equipment limited durability though that can get tedious too if it is an item that needs to be frequently replaced.

Killingyouguy! posted:Lol. Lmao, even It was mentioned in the boomer thread, that baby boomers were one of the first generations to be able to really start to recognize being in a toxic family relationship and having the financial means to escape. Unfortunately this helped to reinforce a more atomized society in which the end goal was being as isolated as possible from anyone and never having to compromise or share anything. Living as a collective group puts more social demands on individuals with regard to making compromises about space, personal time, resources, labor etc. The people with the boomer mentality can't really envision a hierarchy where they don't aspire to be at the top so they'll shun such living situations. Not every family is the ideal for multi generational households but in the current economic climate the alternative is still often even worse.

Some engines are supposedly optimized for premium octane fuel . Like sports cars. Seems silly when you are not going much faster than the speed limit most places. Mid grade fuel is literally just half premium+half regular.

Many fleet trucks are governed at 55mph or whatever presumably for fuel efficiency but it often causes traffic snarls since you have multiple vehicles slightly not fast enough to effectively pass slower vehicles so they kind of clump together. I feel like overall speed has a bigger factor in adverse road/visibility conditions and vehicles traveling at wildly different speeds (not necessarily just too fast) tend to cause more accidents when weather is not an issue.

JollyBoyJohn posted:Most 80s videogames are better than modern ones in that you can sit and beat them all in usually way less than an hour At a mall kiosk they had one of those "200 retro nes games on a USB controller" gadgets you can plug into your TV so for funsies I fired up Contra and beat it in twenty minutes after not playing it for decades, all the little gen Alpha kids were like like I was some kind of speed runner or something. It was one of the few NES games I was able to beat on my own consistently thanks to the Konami code (though at this point can probsbly handle it with the lives/Xtra lives you pick up along the way by default). You also reminded me how much I loved the Game Genie because it made so many more NES games beatable for me by allowing me to bypass bullshit mechanics or unintuitive design choices that held me back.

My unpopular opinion is that a lot of WFH advocates really take for granted the sheer number of people who simply cannot take that option in order to make the WFH person capable of being a recluse. While I think it's good for a lot of reasons to let people work from home if it's feasible in their job, it also trades one person's in-person labor for another somewhere along the infrastructure. It can also create divisive situations within various businesses and bureaucracies where some jobs can work from home (Admins, tech support, clerks/secretaries/etc) while others simply can't (janitors, repair techs, drivers, warehouse workers, medical staff, etc).

You know there would be people huffing mystery pill dust so hard.

Gripweed posted:“Woods porn” was nowhere near the widespread common childhood experience people act like it was. I blame climate change. Changing weather patterns and earlier, stormier spring rains affect the migration patterns of Juggs and Penthouse species. Habitat destruction of printing presses and declining sources of subscription forage have also greatly impacted their proliferation. These days you'd be lucky to find a scraggly colony of them holed up in an attic somewhere.
