I don’t feel like nobody can understand my POV. I grew up moving country to country and my classmates growing up led similar lives and probably had similar POVs. It was only in college that I realized most people lived their whole childhoods in one city, not counting vacations.

I think you’d be interested in looking into the concept of “Third Culture Kids”. I think the original book may be a bit outdated and lack some of the complexity of modern globalization, but it definitely made me realize a lot of things about myself when I read the book the first time way back.

I’m really hoping more adoption of Ubuntu Touch and other alternative mobile OSs will come from this, and with that, more support and development to make them feasible alternatives for the average user

I feel like they’ve been talking about this since I was a kid. I remember reading in school about phytoplankton as a carbon sink and how it can be used to fight climate change back in the early 2000’s, or am I losing my mind?

Edit after reading more carefully. Yes they’ve been working on it, it’s the potential side effects that are the big deal

Researchers have long known that adding iron to the sea leads to blooms of phytoplankton (back in the 1980s, one scientist declared: “Give me a half tanker of iron, and I will give you an ice age”),

Weird, working fine for me on Voyager

Found a 2021 reddit post as well

But I feel like I saw this first on imgur back in the mid 2010’s. Might be getting things mixed up though

Definitely not, I’m old, introverted and generally just wanna play chill things after getting home.

Interesting, I pretty much exclusively look for single player experiences. Can’t be bothered to coordinate with people just to have some game time anymore and randos might as well be NPCs IMHO.

Also, enjoyed Slime Rancher for a good bit. Nice for chilling out but eventually it wasn’t able to keep me motivated to come back. Got up to the racing stuff and something about that killed my interest. Waiting to see if Slime Rancher 2 is good once it’s out of early access

Remember when basically all CEOs were espousing how their company was working to make the world a better place? No one even pretends anymore

In a different AI comic conversation someone used the term “slop sepia” and I hope it catches on.

The term, not the slop

Maybe I’m somehow lucky but in the year plus that I’ve had mint on my gaming machine with an RTX 3050 I’ve had no issues. Maybe cause I rarely play demanding games? But modded Cyberpunk has been fine as well

It can stand alone I think, but it also is pretty deep in his expanded universe. I’ve only just gotten into act 2 and there’s stuff that ties into other stories, some of which I haven’t read, and I’m still enjoying it. Definitely no worries about missing the short story though as he sprinkles it in as flash backs in act 1 of the story.

Just started Isles of the Emberdark. Just realized that outside of manga I’ve been reading nothing but Sanderson novels for a good bit

Wow, I legit almost forgot about dat boi

What’s your favorite piece of media and why?

I don’t see any sane governments trying to make deals with him going forward. He’s shown that he will just ignore/change any “deals” he makes in all aspects of his life as he sees fit.

I do suspect he’ll go TACO in the end but the fucking chaos in the meantime…

Honor is dead, but I’ll see what I can do

I like that term. AI comics definitely have some kinda weird feel, something about the color choices/solidness and the line work I think. Gonna be using slop sepia in the future

AI? The guys legs be weird.

How can anybody with a brain not understand

There’s your answer
