I won’t even pick up a new game if it’s got more than 3 types of tokens/currencies anymore.

Especially if it looks like it takes more time to set up and explain the rules than it takes to actually play the game.

This is what happens when we let foreign interests fund our politicians.

I have to admit I have no proof other than it wouldn’t be the worst thing these kind of companies have done.

That, and as far as putting down any sort of ‘grassroots’ movement, making them look like fools is a move straight out of Freakonomics in regards to how the KKK was effectively out on blast by the Superman radio Broadcast of the day.

By showing how crazy and dumb the organizations ‘secret codes’ & ‘rituals’ were, their numbers dropped precipitously.

I’m still not convinced that these guys aren’t being fronted by oil conglomerates to make real climate activists look like morons.

Considering that a US hospital will charge you a few grand for even looking in their direction these days, $2,500.22 for something serious, like seizures, sounds like a steal :(

Ideally, it would be the same word over and over, so that we can trick the AI into ending all sentences with the word. Bonus points if it is the word “buffalo”, since it can from a grammatically correct sentence.

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo

Damn, has it been that long already!?

That’s the ‘soon’ I was referring to, I guess. He’d been working on another game in the same universe when he got the rights back.

Mentioned in this thread.

And I believe the designer got the rights back fairly recently, so I’m hoping for more of this!

I’ve had a lot of fun with Book of Demons, which is a bit more simplified, but really respects whatever amount of time I have to put into it!

Or worry about all of the asbestos, lead, and formaldehyde -laced building materials that were all of the rage in previous decades.

The only things in that range around these parts are going to be burnt out husks of a house with a cheery “fixer-upper” in the listing title…

Doesn’t matter how similar it looks though.

The only way to tell is to open up both models and look at individual points of the 3d mesh. If their positions in 3d space match up to, say the hundred-thousandth of a decimal, then it is a copy.

But if the model was scaled or rotated or whatever, there would be no way to prove a case because there wouldn’t be a match.

The same thing was done to prove games was lying about copying models from previous games when they claimed that it was too difficult to add all previous monsters into different games because their converter tool was giving them issues.

Did they say how they analyzed the models? Because looking at the silhouette and other similarities isn’t enough to prove plagiarism when it comes to 3d models.

What you have to do is open up both the original and the suspected copy models and select a couple of similar vertices (the points that give the model geometry) and compare the position down to the decimal place. If they are even a little off, then it isn’t a copy.

It’s worse because they are a suicidal death cult.

They wish to bring about their version of the end of the world and are doing everything they can to make it happen. All the while, they are dragging the rest of the world down with them.

Didn’t even have to be the US.

Israel has been known to threaten US politicians with financially backing their political opponents unless their Zionist line is toe’d.

God forbid Federal Highway Administration or the Department of Transportation actually work on removing distractions along highways…

The longest of the redud expeditions so far, it took me over 9 hours to complete, far, far less than the last time it was here.

The wisdom is incorrect though, in the sense that you aren’t ‘disposing’ of the oil using this method. You are simply hiding it while simultaneously toxifying your immediate environment.

How they used to get rid of motor oil back in the day.

I managed to do the entire thing in a couple of hours.

Some pointers:

• Metal Plates. You’ll need a lot of them so mine a bunch of ferrite dust if you want to speed up some of the base building, specifically for the power grid & mining.

• Chromatic Ore. Used in just about everything. Find a copper vein after you get the terrain tool, set the tool to it’s smallest setting, and mine the entire vein. You’ll have just about all of the Chromatic Ore you need after processing it in a refiner. If you dig a tunnel underneath the vein, you’ll also avoid the weather.

• Finding water is your best bet for the crystals you need to fix the ship. Floating crystal formations also carry them on occasion, I believe.

• Take a look at the other tiers of tasks, doing them out of order is sometimes preferable. One of them grants the magna-gold recipe for another part of the ship repair.

• If you have trouble finding Larval Cores, look for distress signals from planetary charts, there’s a <20% chance that they’ll point you to the abandoned building that’s surrounded by the eggs.

• you can build a tiny base using the 1/2 size pieces to complete the base building. They cost 1/2 as much so you need less ferrite dust.

• build the minotaur as soon as you can (via the expedition task that grants you the recipe). It can keep you safe from the weather and the hostile creatures. Plus, it’ll drastically cut down on on-foot travel time until you get your ship fixed.

Hope this helps!
