This may be unpopular but the marraige model was never good for women in the west, and Im glad we are free of it.

We were expected to be live-in bang-maid-mothers. Women were lobotomized during the ‘golden 1950s’ that some (often conservative men) worship.

I think I am starting to prefer a model where I live together in groups with friends/ family for protection and support.

🙀 😸

Probably ‘Talos Principle’. I still haven’t finished it though. A tier puzzle game for me. Maybe S tier by the time I finish!

Sounds very cool. Thanks for sharing your experience with it.

Thats pretty interesting. Do you mind telling us rough numbers on time spent building and sale price? Did you set out to make something you thought you could sell or just end up selling it?

Kind of. I saw there were marketplaces like Xpiece, GitMarket, etc popping up and I'm wondering if anyone tried those or something like it. They don't seem to be exactly branded as 'template marketplaces' like a lot of the old source code sites were, but maybe there's no difference.

steps down with a golden parachute, all the richer.

We need real consequences for greed that is ruining everyone's lives.

I also got into disc golf over the pandemic. I hope the sport sees a lot of growth. I like that courses don’t require much upkeep or forest clearing

okay ‘chemically’ vs psychologically is the distinction I was looking for, thanks.

Although if we give science enough time maybe they will arrive at the conclusion that its the same mechanism, ‘psychologically’ addictive just means a dopamine addiction as far as I know. Its still a chemical.

I thought we had generally agreed that anything can be addictive?

And this link is broken for me. Anyone else?

as if rich people care about how much they pollute

hahaha I really want to know what you’re talking about!

Can we not abandon facebook to be reclaimed by nature? I haven’t been on that site in years

same, I assume you have heard of / watched the train wreck that was Action Park?

If I add in the 85+ to the disney calculations it only makes your case worse (drives the # higher). I left it out to be nice.

Would you seriously take your family to disney as long as less than 10 people a day died there? Like get your head out of the #s for a second think with your common sense.

Lets do another really simple one. Imagine a playground near you serving kids 5-14. Are you taking your kids as long as less than 13 kids died there last year? Or are you maybe thinking its unsafe after 1 death? WHY?

You seriously are not understanding the importance of comparing representative groups and this ‘compare any slice of the country to the entire country 1:1’ method is ludicrous, nothing to do with burning man

edit: hmm the park example is complicated by the fact we don’t know how many citizens the park servers. Im finding numbers ranging all over, from 2k to 10k to much higher in cities. For this example we can use a city park with 10k annual visitors, so we would expect 1-2 deaths a year at this park and not bat an eye yes? Either way I think you get my point. Good luck

fucking hell mate, do you think selection bias is a fictional concept inapplicable to your calculations or are you going to continue to pretend that taking an entire countries population and comparing it to any sliver of the country 1:1 doesn’t fail basic representativeness analysis?

I like how you chose casino, establishments known to especially attract the 85+ cohort, which I didn’t even include in my 10 a day disney # to be nice. How many 85+ you think they got at burning man?

Do you think 10 people a day die at a single disney park behind the scenes? You’re dying on this hill?

tragedy of the commons. People impacted arent in position to change it, people in the position to change it aren’t impacted.

One day we will realize individual actions wont cut it and we need to unite against those burning our world instead of quibbling about who recycles more.

Haha I don’t care so much about burning man as much as this method you have.

So by your math, Somewhere like disney with 50k visitors a day is still remarkably safe as long as less than 10 people a day die there?

go on take it, it won’t cost you much
