"We need AGI to figure out how to fix climate change!"

We KNOW how to fix climate change.... We've known for donkeys years.... It's Difficult & Expensive (though cheaper than doing nothing).

What they WANT is AGI to cast a Magic Spell to fix climate change, and are betting everything on that...

You do get circumcisons that are done on medical grounds (the reason I know of is the foreskin being too tight at birth, interfering with urination), but finding enough of them? And there’s likely a genetic susceptibility? Yeah, going to be difficult.

I do remember liking The Martian.

Same place, you can put a frame rate cap on. For a VTT, I think 30fps will be fine. :-) That should also help.

Because of the changes Musk made to The Algorithm, left-of-centre posts get MUCH more engagement here anyway. Which rather nullifies his argument....

And that's before you start to look at relative user base sizes, which TBF isn't easy given things like X's rampant bot problem.

The depressing thing about this is: If they're THIS bad at writing stuff for where we're expert enough to spot the problems, are they also butchering writing about subjects we don't know well enough to spot them fucking up? I suspect largely yes.... :-(

I got Curious & went looking, and there isn't anything that's a great match for Star Wars Saga ed. There's a generic sci-fi set that seems mostly aimed at the Fantasy Flight Star Wars RPG, but that's about it. Though maybe one of the Cyberpunk RED / 2020 sets might work? I feel doubtful...

I wonder if there’s a good set for Star Wars on the marketplace?

I got it too.

Yep. I feel that letting it be widely known that voting Reform is something to be ashamed of is actually the correct thing to do....

It's not OUR behaviour which needs rethinking....

I can only think they’re hoping enough gets deleted that the data centres can decommission some racks of hard drives.

Ah, yeah, that makes sense then. And means it's Epic who really should be allowing other methods.

Yes, though Blue Sky have made it worse through the implementation. BBC news points out verification by e-mail address is explicitly an allowed form of age verification in the legislation, and there's a company set up to do it already:

Why not join the Green party? Pool resources rather than fracture the vote more?
