you see, so, in my city, there's like 3 roads currently under construction to the place where my Gym is at, the 'city government' has basically controlled the masses now and change the route they have the travel by car, but me, as a freedom loving individualist, can still get past those road closures because I am riding a bike.
Take that.
My mom drove me in her small Smart to the gym yesterday because I needed to get something from it, it took around 20 minutes to get there, which is like 5 minutes less than when I get there by bike.

You're technically more inconvenienced in a car in europe than you are with a bike.

#

also no there was no controlled closure, it's called road maintenance.

#

that one road is completely getting redone with new bigger bike lane too.

devout quiver
solid sun
#

yeah it will be a pretty great road for inline skating then.
Super smooth.

#

looking forward to when it is completed in another further 7 years probably

#

man I wish road construction would be faster...
That's the only complaint I have.

#

where is the AI to help us with making that faster huh?

devout quiver
#

road construction is quick, getting all the permits from the people who hate change and claim their freedoms are infringed upon when you make improvments for all is what takes all the time

solid sun
#

I don't think so.

#

road refurbishment is financed by the city itself, and I don't think you need special permits to make a road better.

#

cities get a certain budget to spend on things, and they can request financial boost from the uhhh Region, which then requests it from the State which then requests it from the Country or something not sure exactly what the chain looks like, but each pot has some budget they can do stuff with.

But sometimes they spent that budget on rediculously stupid and not needed things that are just tax payers wasted funds.
like stupid blocks of concrete that cost a bazillion and they are supposed to be benches, but look like road construction blockers or something.

teal iron
solid sun
#

yeah... I watch some show on TV that regularly highlights the worst examples of tax payer money wasting.

#

that was the one that came to mind at first

#

there's hundreds of over examples, of new benches made of metal, that get insanly cold in winter and insanely skin burning hot in the summer.
Or car ramps to highways that don't exist randomly placed in a field.

I'd like to thank the good people from here who posted about the Mamon King game here. I just beat the main campaign. While the game is relative short, considering the price tag, I've found it enjoyable for what it was.

Mamon king?

It was that game that was funded by a japanese youtuber

It already sold over 60k

Also, I was looking at the Steam achievement page... At first I found weird ||that after you become king, they simply seal your mon andd have you start over. Then seeing it one the achievements is beating your mon that was sealed. Man, that's clever.||

Excuse the title translation, lol

There hasn't been a Monster Rancher game since the one for DS I believe

#

And I will say it again ||make you to grind all the way to King... Then get you back to square one... And then you have to face the monster you raised. Brilliant. ||

#

I haven't reached that part. Nor I know I want to because I know it will be frustrating

#

That’s a pretty big spoiler

I used tags though

My total playtime ended up being around 12 hours and I feel like I didn't even grind that much. Heck, I literally started it last sunday, I think.

there were concerns they might have to charge despite saying they wouldn't if they could help it

let's you play it on switch 2 if you own the switch 1 version

some games charge for it but the dev promised they'd try to make it a free upgrade

#

I'd honestly avoid the mouse controls on Switch 2, it's a gimmick at best, carpal tunnel syndrome at worst.

#

Split-screen co-op seems to be it

#

Does the Switch 1 version not have multiplayer

tranquil obsidian
#

due to the switch being the switch, cutbacks were necessary in many games

the switch 2 version removes those cutbacks, but requires the upgrade pack

thankfully for stardew, the pacl is free

Don’t ya know? Switch gamers are casual gamers. Carpal tunnel is only for those that game more than 2 hours a day popcat - Nintendo execs, probably

I'm starting to understand people like Genghis Khan

#

I did this job, painted a lounge, the plasterers ballsed up the finish coat of plaster, so I did what I could, sanded it to death, mist coated, finish coat twice

It looked awful when the sunlight hit the wall, the plastering is knackered

#

He asked me to try and rectify

#

SO I brought a big old tub of filler

#

Filled it to death, sanded it all smooth, repainted

#

He's complaining, that didn't work, still looks crap, the plastering is that bad

You put the filler, wait 8 to 24 hours, sand it smooth, wash the wall to remove all the dust, put 2 coats of primer, then paint

GOG is entering a new chapter.
︀︀
︀︀Michał Kiciński, co-founder of CD PROJEKT and GOG, has acquired GOG from CD PROJEKT.
︀︀
︀︀The mission stays the same: Make Games Live Forever.
︀︀
︀︀Going back to our roots allows us to double down on what we do best: reviving classics, giving you a library you control rather than one that controls you, and offering the most gamer-friendly policies on the market.
︀︀
︀︀At the same time, we will continue our close cooperation with CD PROJEKT, and their upcoming games will be available on GOG.

Nuclear fusion is one of the holy grails of energy generation. The amount of power released from turning hydrogen into helium is absolutely staggering! The sun is a perfect example of what fusion is truly capable of, and it is 100% natural!

And yes, Kyran's right. much of the geothermal energy we have here on Earth actually comes from nuclear fission, where large atoms spontaneously break apart into smaller ones and release a lot of energy. And yes, fission is the same process that makes nuclear weapons work.

I'd like to think that something beneficial to more people will come from new research into it, but I doubt it'll ever make it past celebrations in the lab

#

you forgot about ICING, stupid

teal iron
#

Basically there are places where you can dig a fairly shallow hole, pump water down it, and then it'll get boiled by the super hot rock, and then you can extract the steam to drive a turbine

#

Technically it is possible ANYWHERE as the earth's crust is borderline molten all around the globe, but most places it is WAAAAAAY too difficult to drill that far down

#

However I was watching a video about a startup that is using the plasma laser tech normally used to kick-start nuclear reactions (I think it's mainly necessary for fusion) and instead pointing it straight down to vaporize rock and soil in a vertical slice deep into the earth, and the superheated plasma created by the beam will flash-cool into a hardened obsidian layer that acts as a structural support and sealant on the hole, basically digging a really deep hole without any of the hassle of getting a drill really far into the ground

#

This technology, if effective, would make geothermal theoretically viable anywhere you have the infrastructure for the water itself. There'd still be more expensive locations, but pretty much anywhere you would build a coal-driven steam boiler plant, you can use this laser to make a geothermal plant
It's got a lot more potential because it uses existing infrastructure, and unlike a fusion or fission plant that require unfathomable energy to turn on, and which cannot adapt at all to energy demand, it's basically just a coal plant without the coal. Very easy to manipulate

peak folio
#

The main thing with just about any application of geothermal is that while the surface and air tend to vary in temperature between seasons or even the time of day, the temperature underground stays pretty consistent.

#

Now if you want to run a power plant this way it gets pretty involved…

solid sun
#

so I had the glorious idea, how to combat the rise of the sea level, by just digging a very deep spiral into the ground in or near the sea and then letting the sea water flow down through several tourbines until it hits the hot downstairs levels where it just boils off and becomes clouds.

solid sun

#

Makes sense, but utterly useless

teal iron
solid sun
#

I mean, you don't need to dig fast, you just need to dig down in the first place, the rest is done by nature.

#

like you're not just digging a hole that's supposed to fill itself up. it's supposed to turn that sea water into steam to make it so the sea doesn't spill over into land.

#

like a reverse dam

teal iron
#

you know a fun fact about when you boil water

#

it turns into rain

#

So you remove X water, yeah?
Because you boil it.
And that water will make its way into the sky, diffuse the heat you boiled it with, and then fall back down as X rain

#

Hits the ocean
-X + X = 0 change to the amount of water in the ocean

#

Also, when the water diffuses that heat, it doesn't exactly go off into space either...
Some of it does, something something inevitable heat death of the universe

#

but the point is, channelling ocean water into geothermal power is a terrible idea, and we haven't even considered SALT MINERAL DEPOSITION

Honestly, the incessant ai accusations are starting to grow even more intolerable as the ai art itself, especially when no research/investigation is being done before said accusations are thrown out... such claims, even when proven false, have actively harmed honest art careers due to mob mentality taking over and harassing artists off the internet when a couple of neanderthals pointed fingers rather than dig a little deeper into the details...

I have a script on PC that hides the "x blocked messages" but I still see them when I'm phone posting. I just choose not to click because with the people I have blocked, 90% of the time I already have a good idea what they're saying anyway.

i have like 2 people ignored ever and both were literally down to spam

i do block spam accounts on occasion if they're persistent

oh, actual scams i block and report

if its someone who's way too zealous with the everyone pings, thats an ignore

#

discord hides the profiles of people who block/ignore you so you can always tell if someone has you blocked or ignored

neat iron

if they ping everyone that much, then chances are i'm not going to be in the server for much longer

I thought the point of ignore is that the person who gets ignored doesn't know about it, chill

There was someone a while back who couldn’t shut up about their 125 IQ or something, but blocked half the server for no reason and wondered why he was on an island.

125 IQ ain't even that much

Something around there, I recall wondering how that automatically validates him as the smartest one in any room. croajirokek

I was tested to have 133 when I was a teen, but idk, I didn't feel any special

IQ is really only logic and problem solving; its not an all-encompassing measure of intelligence

My first ever block on this account, and I won't name names but I'm sure they'll see this comment and reply, was me asking for help when I first started modding, someone replied literally bragging "I'm one of the smartest people in this group" but when I said "oh ok well can you help", "no I learned how to do it myself, go look it up in YouTube".

Funniest part was getting told my multiple other people that person is basically known for "having extremely poor people skills".

you can have high IQ but still be stupid

Which is the polite way to say "yeah, they're an ass."

Typical the people who brag about how smart/good they are are the ones who aren't worth listening to.

🤔Guess I'm not a good person, I let people know how awesome I am on occasion

is that dunning kruger or am i confusing it with something else

hieracy of competence:
stage 1: unconcious incompetence. you are unskilled and you dont know it.
stage 2: concious incompetence. you are unskilled and you know it.
stage 3: concious competence. you are skilled and you know it
stage 4: unconcious competennce. you are skilled but dont realise it.

#

essentially, when you master a skill, you become so natural at it, you dont even consider it, and thus yourself, skilled anyore

Or it’s suggesting confidence drops off again, but I don’t believe that’s what it’s trying to convey

tranquil obsidian
#

its more
"oh wow, youre really good at this"
"...this is nothing, i just got bored one night and thought "fuck it, im gonna make palworld playable on a pregnancy kit"

#

usually when someone has truly mastered a skill, its just second nature and they dont consider themselves "good"

#

its just natural to them

#

its more "humility to the point of self-deprecation"

They see every imperfection in their efforts/craft that nobody else will ever notice.

Just looked at steam:

Palworld was one of the top 100 best sellers, and top 50 most played. And top 50 played on the steam deck (btw got my steam deck oled working as far as I can tell it can run palworld on max settings)

Idk what controller means but palworld got top 100 in that category too

I like my dogs. Nothing exciting, but I enjoy them. I would have a bearded dragon though. My mother's friend had one. They were chill.

We always had cats when I was growing up, and they’re amazing pets, but I really like the idea of pet foxes and raccoons

#

Anything warm blooded with fur looks fren shaped to me

I feel like I heard there's some big downside to pet foxes, but I can't remember what it was

glad needle
#

And yes, I meant to say “families”. Foxes mate for life and the fox dads are VERY present for the babies

#

And in a pet fox’s case, that family includes their humans

#

Also, ferrets and otters are good pets

You know what makes good pets? Frogs. Unless you get some expensive exotic breed. Just get a bull or tree frog. A tank, some water, some leafage, a few crickets and meal worms every now and thing. Boom. Happy pet.

Well, my cat for a whole year would steal any cellphone she saw xD
To entertain her, I got a game on my phone and she became addicted. It caused the phone stealing. She even stole a phone from a contractor I had at the house to give a quote xD

Our cat is "screen addicted". My wife downloaded some mouse/fish tap games on her phone and would blad bird and mice videos on the TVs, so now when he sees someone on their phone he comes running.

I had to stop letting her play it so she would stop going after the phones. My oldest cat gets bored with it after 2 taps and my middle cat just doesn't understand it
