Your life depends on millions of people.
You and I need millions of people.
We can’t know them all. We will never meet them all. But, self-sufficiency is an illusion, often an expensive and thinly drawn one at that. The more high tech and comfortable your life is? The more true this is.
I do not care if you have a cabin in the woods. I do not care if you “reject modern medicine” —
This is one of those things I find “obvious” but I can imagine it starting a big argument for some.
@vga256 Yeah, reloaded a few times, it seems very flaky - I seem to get Internal Server Error (ie. HTTP 500) about half the time on a given request, so something's probably in the server's error log about it.

Politics, meme; United Healthcare, morbid
People on Twitter will really be like "you believe in voting? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, assassinating a CEO" and then not assassi- wait, I'm receiving word from NYC.
@vga256 Hmm, the site seems to break a fair bit when trying to load it?
spicy take, that shooting
Honestly, the revolutionary potential in this event is immense.

I think it's excellent, actually, that the cops and media are spending so many resources and attention on tracking down the shooter.
Because they're doing an excellent job at driving a political turning point and possibly a revolution, by continuing to keep the event and its motivation in people's minds for such a long time.
@rune If you're not restricted in what you can change, this is actually achievable - in the commercial construction space there's a lot of stuff like wallpaper you can clean with water, backboards that are trivial to clean, fully-sealed bathroom cabins, stuff like that.
Probably wouldn't be trivial to retrofit into an existing house, but *possible*

I have been thinking about this ever since years ago Julie explained to me that the reason she dislikes graphical user interfaces is they feel like prisons because to a much larger extent they are an experience fully orchestrated by somebody else.

We choose or are required to engage with a person, organization, business, government. They dictate what software to use for the interaction based on what is most convenient and advantageous to them.

The notion that people choose to use computer applications because they are useful at accomplishing tasks is extremely outdated. The vast majority of software use is not voluntary.

My life would be so much easier if things worked like in The Sims. Toilet getting dirty and instantly changing from the "clean" asset to the "dirty" asset? Nice, that's a call to action I can understand.
Meanwhile in real life everything just gets slowly and continually more and more dirty and my brain completely filters it out because it "doesn't look different from yesterday"

But like, quickly hopping back to Cyberpunk and taking a really quick shot in photo mode there... I'm kind of sad they're not planning on using this engine again because they have absofuckinglutely stacked it with ray and path tracing options. I think it's the only game I've seen so far that renders the screenshot. Even a quick and dirty half assed shot looks nice in this engine.

It's a pretty inexpensive way to freeze the world and play with composition and lens options.
I also kinda miss my widescreen monitor because it was also a way to play around with very wide compositions. But hey.
