Knowing very little of the economy, it seems bad on a long-term scale. If you don’t produce anything, you’re reliant on donations or tourism. Heh, good thing the orange buffoon loves people from other countries, right?

So that would correspond to a min wage of $20 per hour, whereas people were bitching hard about my area going up to $15.

If wages kept up, I think a lot of things would be easier. As is, ya got too much greed up high.

The partyhats were a limited time item available through the consumption of “Christmas Crackers”, which you had to open with another player. They were only available for one season way back, and were tradeable. Because they could be traded to other players, and because they were limited, they shot up in price, and their cost only grew as inflation occurred.

I had the goal once of gaining enough gold to purchase the cheapest color (purple, coincidentally my favorite), and by the time I had enough gold, the price had risen by 100x what I had saved.

The company has made a point to not allow any limited-time items to be tradeable since.

I’m sorry on their behalf. Thank you for providing a viewpoint of someone who’s affected by this; we all need to keep in mind that war is not a good thing.

Huh, it’s like the Prisoner’s Dilemna, but there’s no benefit for cheating. If both sides don’t use AI, it’s fair. If one side uses it, they lose. If both sides use it, they both lose.

In the instance where only one side uses it and verifies the information, they might win because they’d be using it as a work multiplier, presuming both sides have equal capabilities.

Would it have seemed the same if the reporter was a guy?

Sweet, thanks for the info!

I was unsure of the effect of the dead-blow, since “minimizing damage” and “same driving force” sound contradictory to me. The latter makes it sound as if both would drive a nail to the same depth, and I was thinking the beak is effectively a nail. I’m glad the paper mentions concussions, and I’ll give em that bird and primate brains are probably similar enough in that respect.

Odd that the tongue wraps around though. I’d figure it would just slide down the neck, since that seems closer to what we have.

Your link says the page does not exist.

By my thinking, the damage to the brain could outweigh the better foraging. Then I thought that the brain mooshing into the front of the skull later in the peck would turn the head into a dead-blow hammer, which are still quite effective hammers.

“A dead-blow hammer delivers the momentum over a longer period, resulting in less peak force, but similar total driving effect for the same head weight.”

Oh jeez, there’s smaller ones? Yeah, I bet that’d help! Still, it was a lot better use of time than doomscrolling. Almost meditative, since I was following a mental flowchart. Thanks for the post! :)

Like, if Starbucks put a swastika on their cups, and the symbol came out 45° rotated on some of them (as the third reich did), and they just decided not to ship those ones to Germany, it’d be pretty hard to defend.

You either die a Netscape Navigator, or you live long enough to become a… any of em, really.

They’ll probably hold to it for that exact product. If they rebrand it and add it back, that’s no longer the same thing you paid for ;)

It makes it a little better. I appreciate the analysis. It’s always good to get in something like “This too, shall pass.”

Omg, did you know that the word dumb has a ‘b’ in it!? It’s like watching Reading Rainbow again! /s

Took me over an hour for my first play of this game, oof. I kept making mistakes, so I decided to brute force it.

I love the cataloging aspect. Maybe official names like those, plus imaginative names from whoever lives on it, or whoever discovered it.

Thank ya. I remember my favorite times with the internet being those when I had a list of small sites I’d check each day. I’d like to rebuild that :)

How, uh… how do we find them? I’m presuming Google isn’t really an option, since they drive traffic in the opposite way. Got a link to a list of them or something?

I was wondering what issue they were having until I read your comment. If it was a wall of text, I’d have passed on reading it. You did well in clearing it up!
