Just spent 10 minutes fooling around with fluxer via the web ui. Was able to invite a dice bot, but couldn’t get it to respond. (Also it’s very D&D-specific, but that’s a separate complaint)

Looks so much like Discord

Nice comic. Link to source doesn’t work for me.

Suburbs are the worst of several choices. The density is a big factor in what makes cities appealing.

Anyone who has those needs to go straight to therapy and community service.

Retire. Don’t like my job. Tech is circling the drain.

Other people posted some details but essentially if you’re not an idiot you can park that in safe investments and live a happy life.

I get so frustrated when I read about people who like win a few million, blow it on like stupid cars and houses, and end up poor again. Just don’t do that.

My understanding is a lot of the rich assholes with the power to do something about this view these deaths as desirable.

I would only intentionally live somewhere with good mass transit. I don’t want to own a car. I don’t want to feel like owning a car is playing on hard mode.

That’s a big factor in why I’m in New York City. There’s good transit that runs 24/7.

There’s also places to go. Things to do. Saw like five bands play this summer. If a band is going on tour they’ll almost certainly play here. There’s beaches. There’s parks. You can take the train and hike up a mountain.

Some stuff is expensive but there’s deals. My favorite bar has $5 beers. My favorite grocer has $1 fruit. My friend lives in a house with a bunch of fellow queer weirdos and pays like $1k rent for their room.

I’m not really involved but there’s a lot of queer content here, too. My friend really found their people and filled a void they didn’t realize they had when they lived in suburban Midwest.

Agree with the other poster - too open is a net negative. There’s like 3 games I don’t want to play for 1 game I do.

There’s an RPG meetup I go to sometimes. They list some games on their blurbs so people know it’s not just a DND hangout.

Personally I would want to know what kind of games. There’s a wide range. Monopoly? Catan? A six hour indie extravaganza? Same with cards and video games. Like I would go to a sekiro tournament but avoid a CoD thing.

I’m pretty happy in New York City. But I’d probably go to somewhere in Europe if I had to leave. Or maybe Montreal. I’d want to do some research and visit before picking a long term home though.

I visited recently and had so much poutine. Everyone was super friendly. Great time.

If Sony just sold games on more platforms…

This is dangerous and unnecessary.

And it seems like when someone driving one of these kills a pedestrian, they won’t be charged with more than like a misdemeanor.

I dislike AI. It’s like the one ring. Stop trying to use it. But all these people think they’re stronger than Boromir.

That’s tough. Lot of choices. Are we filtering by “most impactful” or “most likely to replay” or something else? I’ll go games that made a big impression on me. There’s some boss towards older games.

• Diablo
• Final Fantasy 7
• Baldur’s Gate
• Dark Souls
• Guild Wars 2

Perhaps you would prefer to live in a dystopia where the bread is full of sawdust and the milk is rotten.

If there are desperate unhappy people it will probably not go well. Our society produces a lot of desperate, unhappy, people.

But as construction moves forward, some drivers say the projects are creating frustration in the short term

Boo fucking hoo.

Would really like these newspapers to not waste time with idiots opinions. Idiot car lovers are not really qualified to speak on the topic. Quote experts. Stop platforming idiots.

Linux has been fine for me for a couple years. Fuck Microsoft.

You shouldn’t be allowed to sell “raw” cheese. It’s unsafe.

The people who did so should face charges analogous to, I don’t know, attempting to poison a bunch of people. Fucking nail them to the wall.
