If you want to ruin your life and sink a couple thousand hours into something, Warframe is free, has a decent backstory and a few bangers on the soundtrack.

The regular gameplay loop boils down to “Be a ninja with space magic, build weapons and biomechanical suits of armour out of blueprints that RNG drop from different enemies to customise powers/damage types, level up weapons to rank up so you can get bigger and better weapons, save the solar system with the power of friendship and this gun I found.”

… “becoming”?

It already is, and was designed to be, a tool for technocapital to funnel money into their coffers and manipulate the users while remaining unaccountable.

Of course they’re based in Delaware.

Deep heat, condoms, superglue, brillo pads, and a tube of pringles.

Inb4 he’s flirting but autistic so doesn’t know how to do it without coming off as agressive /j

Less jokey tone, if he’s making you uncomfortable, have a word with him about it and say he needs to take a second to think about the way he’s saying these things, because they’re making you feel bad.

If he continues after youve spoken to him, then it’s time to talk to your manager.

If the manager is worth their salt then they’ll speak to him without making it an HR problem, but there will be a record of it happening in case it’s malicious and he doesn’t stop, which will definitely require HR involvement

Gotta be Tepoz, all that mercury would have ruined the pulque

Commonly clay, but looks like OP used sandy loam :D

Treat yourself like the owner of a dog with a pinecone when it comes to phone in bed.

Gotta halt yourself before you turn the screen on and flashbang your brain with “WAKE THE FUCK UP THE NIGHTMARE RECTANGLE REQUIRES YOUR ATTENTION” signals

Warm drinks, cool room, heavy blankets and no screens or bright light for ~1h before

Sometimes if my thoughts are getting loud it takes longer

I had a similar one with Turboflame, had sat on a shelf with a broken piezo for 10 years, sent an email out asking how much spares were and they posted a pair of piezo sparks for free.

Now isn’t the time for your scamazon shilling. Have a little respect, the man’s in mourning.

Completely incapable of foreseeing the profound negative outcomes for all of us, just fixated on the tech and the challenges involved and the excitement of being on the cutting edge and being “patriotic”. It’s not even sociopathy, it’s like a complete blindness to the lives of others and the knock-on effects of their actions.

I’m 100% certain he knows exactly what he’s doing, but the public dont get to see that face. That’s for the investors to know and us to die finding out.

(Also isn’t what you described sociopathy? I’m not a psychoanalyst so couldn’t tell you for sure but that sounds exactly like sociopathic behaviour)

Wow, that’s almost as many people as are buried under the rubble of Gaza

• The myth that the deranged tech elites use to justify fuelling the oncoming collapse.
