Hello! Welcome to reading this thread, idiot. Your funeral. I am continuing my series of posts about going to The Most Inhospitable Places On Earth! Last time in this series I went to Antarctica, which is cold and has penguins who are angry giant birds who smell like dead fish. Everyone loved it: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3675525. I've been to antarctica several times, but have not for quite a few years entirely because of Republicans/Conservatives, who are awful. You should be a Communist if you think people going to cool places is important. I posted this in YOSPOS last time, and am posting it in CSPAM this time, so don't make me regret it. This time I'm going to Burning Man, an anarchistic gathering of artists who build a city in some dead lake managed by the imperial government in order to have fun. I am camping with someone I met on eve online. There is apparently a possibility I will die. Stay tuned! I'll be at 3:20 and esplanade if anyone else is going and wants to say hello to me. I leave on Friday.

oh also if you want to talk about how awful it is for the environment to set a bunch of stuff on fire, you'd probably love the Biosphere Collapse thread: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3979579 don't talk about that here, because no one cares. we are hosed. deal with it.

NeonPunk posted:Isn't the entire place all flooded and muddy because of Hilary? apparently the "ancient" lake was a suggestion and it is also a contemporary lake as well. I'll let everyone know when i get there on saturday, or possibly a week from then because there aren't any working cellphone towers there (federal government is lazy and incompetent)

John Charity Spring posted:are you going to visit the orgy dome I wasn't going to but now I will and also will be super loquacious about what happens Red Baron posted:I thought this was co-opted by people with more money than sense long ago and has been only a shell of whatever past glories it might have had for years if not decades now? I heard that too but also I've heard the opposite of that. This year there are lots of tickets available, so it seems that the rich landlord class has decided they dont like it anymore, which means it's cool again Cuttlefush posted:shoulda posted this on yospos this time too it's way more politics related than computer related, which antarctica had at least the pretense of being because i said so. maybe you should post about this is qcs/sad and see what they think,

a very cspam thing is that normally relisting burning man tickets is just like concert tickets, except now there are hundreds/thousands of unsold tickets and people are basically giving them away so if you bought a ton to relist them you're just super mega hosed, which is super burning man probably

theflyingexecutive posted:stereotype, how would I ask for you? I'm sure as poo poo not stumbling into a random camp and asking the stairs question to everyone I’m in SFO for the next 1.5 hours until my flight to Reno! I doubt I’ll get internet there, it’s in the middle of the desert! I heard maybe from certain spots? but my camp is *cats at 3:20 and esplanade (it’s part of the hive). we have a “blinky dome” and a “dragon egg” so just wander into a camp that fits that description and start asking who has stairs in their house!

Real Mean Queen posted:I support you in this op. Even if it’s total wall to wall dogshit, it’ll probably be funny. It’s good to have experiences as long as I don’t die I will consider it a success. I also want to meet and fall in love with someone and also have a transcendent life altering experience that elevates my consciousness to a higher state. also maybe take some cool photos.

Real Mean Queen posted:This is interesting, is it like a clock face/concentric circle deal for addresses? Like the number is your direction from the center and then the second thing is how far out from the center? oh I never responded to you! yeah you nailed it. super easy. stuff seems like it’s from like 230 to 930, and then the streets go up to J maybe? man at the middle, temple at 12. you can find a map online if you google it. I got a bike for free and united will let you check it for free! I’m gonna try and stash it in the container for my camp so I don’t have to lug it back, because dragging a 60lb 5ft long 3.5ft high box around so far has been difficult.

mark immune posted:2nd most difficult place behind Xi’s uighur concentration camps the climatologist camp did a talk about how they used the measurements of black rock city to determine some measurement of ground caused object turbidity that is important for doing meteorology models. it’s useful because brc has a lot of similar characteristics to a refugee camp.

also while there are clearly some camps with just boatloads of cash, most of the people are not rich tech bros. I haven’t actually found any billionaires, tho I heard they have some camps out near 9:00 and G. I imagine they mostly stay over there.

Lacrosse posted:The weather is drying out Monday, I don't really see any military intervention needed. The portos on my side of the city even got serviced today so the city isn't overflowing with sewage or anything. My camp planned to strike Sunday so we just had our plans pushed forward a day. We are all overly prepared and provisioned with food and water so it hasn't been much more than a mild annoyance for the people near me at least. I’m pretty sure I saw a helicopter picking someone up yesterday lmao

I think I understand why people think cspam posters are a bunch of unhinged psychos who only want to believe the worst possible things and then get really passionately defiant when it turns out the reality is just sort of normal and fine.
