Alright how about this: mandatory health insurance for pets. This could have multiple positive effects. People wouldn’t carelessly get pets without considering the costs as often. Any insurance would ask for very high rates for any of the incredibly defective breeds people keep buying. I know people find that flat faced pug funny/cute but they literally can’t breathe ffs. This might lead to less demand and less breeding. Vets and their customers wouldn’t have to worry about costs so much which would take a lot of the stress out and make many currently difficult decisions a lot easier. As a responsible per owner you have these costs either way.
I don’t even have a child. If I were to end someone else’s spawn would that count as -1 child for my footprint or theirs? Just asking out of curiosity…of a friend…an acquaintance really.
I beg to differ. In a mad maxian wasteland the child would still burn a lot of gasoline. Witness them.
His brilliant tweets X’s had me convinced he’s a genius but now I’m like wait a minute…
Same as oil companies claiming they care about going green now after denying the mere existence of climate change tooth and nail for decades. Apple even already confirmed that they’ll weasle their way out of the EU law for replacable phone batteries with the waterproof loophole.
They’ll just film it in skid row to save money on sets.
Oh you rascal, you know we can’t stay mad at you.
When I was in 7th grade I was given the honor of “paper duty”. The fuck is that you ask? Well, our school was giving out free paper-anything (think notebooks, folders, anything a kid could need to write stuff for school) to every student because no student should suffer from his poor family background and a lack of writing utensils. Fantastic concept if you ask me but it had an issue back then. The unlimited power of the paper kid. As such your job would be to hand out paperproducts to those who needed them for the entire school year. How this hasn’t been abused until shithead teenage me came along is a mystery to me. I took a lot and I handed it out to friends, filled up a closet at home and would slip notebooks to kids for personal favors. The corruption was absolute. If I liked you a simple nod would be enough to get some juicy paper ware. If I didn’t care about you, you’d have to show me your full old notebook to get a new one as was protocol. If I didn’t like you I’d give you some anyway but not before breaking your balls for a bit. I was drunk on paper power and loving every second of it. In hindsight I feel very bad about abusing a social system intended to help kids like myself who didn’t have wealthy parents but with 13, growing up poor as fuck I’d take everything I could get. Anyway, at the end of the school year they noticed how many supplies had vanished despite no increase in students but they couldn’t tell who had taken more because guess who had the responsibility to fill up the paper closet with new paper from the unsupervised storage room? They just handed us all the keys and let us do our thing. My thing happened to be paper embezzlement. End of the story was an overhaul of the paper duty concept. From that year onwards it was done in teams of 2 who had to promise not to take anything and keep a detailed inventory spreadsheet that was checked once a month. Additionally only the teacher had the key to the storage room. The moral of the story is that no 13 year old should wield that much raw power.
There are plenty of games like this from the last few years. Elden Ring, Zelda, TLOU2, GoW2 just to name some AAA titles. Many indie games too. It just got a bit more annoying to filter out the cash grabs.
Yep. Denying those slave owners their rights to own slaves ended slavery. Onto the next issue!
Username checks out. Didn’t mean to offend your people. At least you suck blood for nourishment and not just for fun.
Every day some engineer would have to answer his questions. “Can we remove brown?” “Pardon me?” “The color, brown, can we remove it?” “I’m sorry I don’t understand, remove it from where? I don’t think our rocket has any b-” “No, I mean from the world. Maybe with our satellites?” “I…don’t think that’s something we’ll be able to-” “How about birds? I don’t like them. They remind me of god.” “We…we’ll look into it.”
Bold of you to assume he’s not already doing that.
I really don’t think they’ll replace the team nor do I think that’s the cause anyway. This patch was rushed for the season which was rushed to grab cash. Aggressive monetization remains the most toxic factor in game development and it usually comes from upper management rather than your hands on developers.
The vampires of the Nestlé board don’t like being blinded by bright screens as they roam the night in search for the blood of the innocent.
Finally the iconic red phonebooths can shine again and big ben will be the primary source of the time in London. Oy, it’s seven bong.
There were none before the patch two days ago and it wasn’t in the patch notes so they just fixed an accidental change there.
How much are we talking here? If it’s a shitfuckton I’m pretty sure it would get warmer as ice and land mass would get covered by less reflective water and more water vapor would accumulate in the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas. Also Kevin Costner would be out there doing his shenanigans trying to find some land so we just generally want to avoid this whole scenario because the man is too old for this shit at this point.
The dumbest thing is the mentality between workers sometimes. “Don’t be a pussy” some will say when you ask for masks/goggles/ear plugs/etc but none of them will be there when you eventually get injured or sick. None of them will congratulate you, hand you a tough-guy-trophy and pay your medical bills + pension.
