The whole “more cows and computerized milking raised prices of milk” reeks of anti-industrial Luddite garbage.

You could learn this internet if you decided to.

Near my university there was an underground bakery open from 18:30 to 6:30, and whenever you were drunk or high coming out of some university party or just a night of drinking with your friends you’d end up going there and it was amazing. At a reasonable cost, some high sugar and fat pastries, or just a warm croissant, served by an immigrant man in his 50s who would call everyone nephew. All this through a tiny barred window below the earth. A wonderful thing.

We’ll have warm seas like in Earth’s infancy soon enough.

I was wondering if they would ever add it just this week, it’s a welcome addition

It’s unfortunate that he’s lived to be 95 and still hasn’t managed to swallow his ego and admit the Bosnian or Cambodian genocides happened. I guess the ideological blindness is just too strong.

I don’t know how you can look at a map clearly showing the aftereffects of decades of communism and blame it on capitalism. Why would east Germany vote fascist due to rampant capitalism but the rest of Germany not do that? I just don’t understand.

Destroying the subsidies that the previous governments had has made inflation worse in the short term but should improve it in the long term. He says this and people believe it, so they’re powering through the bad times awaiting the better times. In a way he’s in his honeymoon period, and some people like him better because he’s actually following through his policies instead of being all talk.

Makes me think of Half-life 2

Evangelion was written by an insane religious fanatic searching pointlessly for a divine reason for choosing to exist. You don’t have to watch it, I release you.

In European Portuguese it’s “Feira da Ladra”, or “Fair of the (female) Thieve”

The state shouldn’t be in the business of killing people.

It was just a joke, I was hoping someone else would be able to turn it into something with meaning.

My favorite sin is Lust. My favorite virtue is Chastity.

As long as Venezuelans keep blaming the US for Venezuela’s problems instead of looking inward, especially to their own corrupt government, things won’t get better for them.

Using the US as an external enemy is great for holding onto power but it doesn’t improve people’s lives. Transparency, democracy and accountability improve people’s lives. These are things most of Europe have and Venezuela does not. Venezuela has vastly different policies from center-left European countries and I’d know because I live in one.

You don’t have to defend China or Cuba because I don’t want to attack them. I wish Venezuela would be like China or Cuba. At least my family wouldn’t go without power, starve or die needlessly.

Maduro has to go, and chavistas need to stop blaming everyone but the government for their problems. But I suspect even after everyone has left and only chavistas remain, they’ll still blame someone else. Don’t encourage them.

But lower pension costs, and overall it saves money to allow people to smoke themselves to an early death. Even if you count the cost of their treatment, it’s cheaper than 20 extra years of pension payments. It’s a terrifying but sound economic policy.

Just finished it yesterday, it has more bugs than I’d like, but I really enjoyed the story and puzzles, even if some were beyond my abilities (I guess I was rushing too much to check the rooms for clues). Watching The Truman Show always left me wanting more, and this really scratched that itch.

The worst bug was cutscene volume playing at 100% even if master volume was at 10%. The funniest bug was a chase sequence where the chaser got stuck and my character was running further and further away from the chase while talking as if they were next to each other. That sequence ended in the game crashing because I guess the game couldn’t position the chaser in their place for a cutscene.

I use Ecosia for the environmental aspect, not the privacy, so I’m gonna stay with it.
