Someone else already provided a real and insightful answer to your question, so instead I’ll just leave this here
- Comment on According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century 5 days ago:
Sheet says 2000-07, starting on the WB and their last season concluded on the CW. Maybe you only saw it on CW?
- Comment on According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century 5 days ago:
Though the majority of its runtime has been in the 21st century, it initially aired in September of 1998 (British version was back in '88). Every other entry on this list starts at 2000 or later.

Seinfeld ran from 1989-98. This is a list of 21st century shows

You should check out a book named “Blindsight” by Peter Watts (and his side-sequel called “Echopraxia”). They delve into forms of intelligence that evolved completely separately from what we would consider ‘normal’. Also biologically-plausible vampires in space! Anyway, if you’re interested in splitting hairs between what really counts as AI I think you’d enjoy it. There’s even a passage that directly references the Chinese Room but if I say anything more I’ll spoil it. Plus it’s just a good book and a personal favorite of mine and I try to get as many people as possible to check it out 😆.

Almost as unsettling as having 37 open tabs. Like, I’ve been there before, and it’s never turned out well 😆

Brass is an alloy where the two metals are melted together, the pennies are a zinc core with a thin copper coating. Think of the former as a chocolate/vanilla swirl and the latter as a vanilla cone dipped in chocolate but ya know, with chemistry magic going on

- Comment on New Age Cartel (NAC) | Modern Browser Mafia PBBG — Dev Showcase & Playtest 1 month ago:
I have a few questions regarding what it will look like to “do things” in the game. It seems likely that for stuff like Training it will be as simple as telling the browser ‘I want to train my Strength’ and then a timer pops up and when it’s done you go up a level. That’s all fine and good, but what about more complex activities like performing a heist or something? Will that also be timer-based? Will it be possible to lower the amount of time spent if my character meets a certain skill check? What if I’m like level 20, trying to do a level 15 job, and I bring along three level 2s to help, will that increase the likelihood of failure (and presumably prison time), just make the timer longer, or would the level 2s simply not be able to assist since they are well below level 15? Will the various operations have different specialized roles (point man, safe cracker, get away driver, etc) or will we all just be lumped together? Lastly, you said PvP combat will be stat-driven, so would that be EXCLUSIVELY number based a la Yugioh (my 2450 ATK point monster beats your 2200 ATK point monster, dealing you 250 points of DMG) or will there be any elements of RNG thrown in as well?
Sorry, that was a lot, but take that as a good sign! The game sounds mighty interesting and I’m anxious to see how it all plays out!

Like everyone else has said, Control is a fantastic game all around, but I have yet to see anyone else in this thread mention the absolute banger of a soundtrack it has

Don’t forget the soundtrack!

I’m not the original guy you asked and I’m not presenting any genuine evidence, but it isn’t so much that the games are causing groomers to appear because they lack community guidelines or terms of service or are outwardly open to letting anyone play. No, it’s more so that these games are insanely popular among children and the pedos are chasing after the kids wherever they happen to coalesce. It could be Minecraft or Roblox, it could even be something like TF2 or Quake or even Microsoft Flight Simulator. The game itself doesn’t matter, what matters is that they’re on the prowl for kids and will follow them wherever they go and try to talk to them however they can

I too love Five Guys, but yeah they’ve gotten really expensive over the last several years, even before (or like, faster than) the current market trend of everything else getting more expensive. Plus 99% of the time I’m only buying for me so that helps(?)

I do? Doesn’t mean I have to be happy about the fact that portion sizes are shrinking, the cost per sandwich is growing, and the contents of my paychecks remain… let’s call it “aggressively stagnant”

That’s EXACTLY what the MAGA proto-cult was saying about Trump during his first election. Hell, most of them are still saying it to this day
