  • Once you get past level 18, you can start picking your own party. You might need to keep some of the old members around as support for a bit, but building out your own roster can be way better than the starter pack.

  • They measure stress. Kind of ironically, it's likely more reliable on people that think it works and thus get stressed while lying during the test. Of course, it can't tell why you're stressed so false positives happen a lot.

  • Late response, but anyways: the big advantage over regular bank transfers is you can use it like a virtual card without Visa or Mastercard. In essence, the biggest draw is pushing US companies out of the EU financial system.

  • This is even dumber when you consider we're ~2 years away from the launch of the Digital Euro. As easy and fast to transfer as a cryptocoin with none of the drawbacks. No Blockchain nonsense, backed by banks, transactions can be cancelled and refunded just like any digital transaction, and standardized to all EU banks.

  • House parties and board game nights, basically. Supermarket prices, and guaranteed to be around people I enjoy the company of. There's also normally events going on every week, so there's normally some kind of food fest/pedestrianized road with buskers/something going on that's either cheap or free.

  • The ending is a real cop-out though

  • Like sysiphus, we must continue pushing up the hill, forever. There is no final victory. If you're tired, trust in others to continue pushing, very understandable. Just don't piss on the people continuing where you left off.

  • That was for tabling the vote, actual vote is happening on the 14th of October

  • In an episode of Enterprise there was a Klingon lawyer who talked about the honor of law and finding the truth. I'm sure you could definitely have a respected Klingon scientist character and still make it sound Klingony with the right motivation. "To best the mysteries of nature and discover the true nature of reality is an honorable calling" or something like that.

  • Yeah, that's exactly where I got that first rhyme from :))

  • There once was a man from Orange

    Who had a very squeaky door hinge

    He poured on some oil,

    It started to boil,

    And made the nastiest porridge

  • DESKTOP! Wait, snake desktop? How'd that get in the script?

  • Of?

  • Now, this looks like a job for me

    So, everybody, free the detainee

    'Cause we need a lot less guilty

    'Cause it feels like this man will go free

    I said this looks like a job for me

    So, everybody, free the detainee

    'Cause we need a lot less guilty

    'Cause it feels like this man will go free

  • And then the recipient of the knowledge realizes the problem was never the technology, it's the incentive structure of the system.

  • Don't be ashamed of being a Luddite. The Luddites were actually fighting for a righteous cause.

  • You got me interested, so I searched around and found this:

    So, if I understand this correctly, the only fundamental difference between level 4 and 5 is that 4 works on specific known road types with reliable quality (highways, city roads), while level 5 works literally everywhere, including rural dirt paths?

    I'm trying to imagine what other type of geographic difference there might be between 4 and 5 and I'm drawing a blank.
