Look Duras, we want you to express yourself, okay? Now if you feel that the bare minimum is enough, then okay. But some Klingons choose to wear more and we encourage that, okay? You do want to express yourself, don’t you?

No they don’t care. It’s why bike thieves are such assholes, there’s barely any money to be made off it at massive inconvenience for the bike owner but they do it because they know 99% no one comes after them.
I don’t think LaForge is religious
Every rose has its thorn
Yeah it’s virtue signaling for free market simps

A quick search says 150m so it might be close, maybe be a bit too big?
Exactly! They’re putting in the work there and getting some fantastic things done. Lots of other great stuff on that ballot too.
And I’d add - get active the other 364 days of the year.
If we want better options we first need ranked choice voting and we need to get money out of politics. And none of that is going to happen if our only political action each year is voting.
If you’re adventurous try some pickled onions on that thar grilled cheese and then come back and thank me later
Oh damn didn’t know that. Definitely changes the calculus
Love this game. My buddy and I are waiting for the next full release to start a new campaign. Looks like they’ve added a lot since we played last.
Really looking forward to NPCs though, hope they don’t wait too many decades to complete that.
Yeah corporate goals are different and sometimes at odds with the need of their users so what’s the point
No that’s very true, I had it look up leather repair shops not too long ago and it listed six completely fictional shops with fully fleshed out trip-advisor style blurbs for each one. It was hilariously convincing and a complete waste of my time. But it does seem like that happens less and less lately.
Yeah I told my partner about some of the stuff that goes on and her first thought was ‘they shouldn’t allow kids in religion until they’re old enough to decide for themselves’.
I’m extremely wary and nervous about how disruptive LLMs can/will be but one relief is just getting an answer directly for things instead of wading through page after page of SEO optimized BS. Just really nice when you can get a quick answer and get back to the things you want to be doing.
I suppose the AI overlords will screw that up somehow too but IMO it’s at a brief moment of usefulness.
I grew up in a sect that I like to often describe as Beer Drinkin’ Christianity because it’s really chill about most things including homosexuality and gender. It wasn’t until I had grown out of it and basically gone full agnostic that I really realized how coercive even my version of religion had been. I could go on and on but the funniest thing to me was realizing during an Abnormal Psychology 101 course in college that my Church Camp basically used every last technique they listed for brain washing. It was a fun camp and not scary in any way but yet extremely manipulative in a subversive way.
Thrawn would have been such a home-run no brainer
It would be except I forgot it existed while it was in purgatory on Epic
