Dalvoron,

If I understand correctly we can’t do it to anything new because the ratios in the atmosphere got messed up after nuclear weapon testing in the 1950s. Anything breathing after that time can’t be properly compared with this technique. Maybe that will change though.

Bg3 just pulled this off towards the end when you >!just removing the spoiler altogether as the tags didn’t work for some people!<

Dalvoron, (edited )

It showed up as a spoiler on my device, really sorry ☹️. I used the same tags as you suggested though.

Dalvoron,

I am using sync, yes. It’s strange, in my inbox your spoiler format appears correctly as the colons, but in the thread it appears as greater exclamation mark. I think sync is not only using a different tag to make it work, but live changing other users’ formatting 🤔.

I checked my post in browser and it was changing the less than sign to the HTML character code do that may also be the issue.

Dalvoron,

In tech, for the last few decades, the goal of so many startups is not to be the next Apple/Google/Facebook but to create something that Apple/Google/Facebook want to buy.

Yeah unfortunately not taking a buy out often means one of the Big Five making their own version of whatever you’re doing / buying out your competitor, and then bullying you out of the market. A bleak possibility for start ups

Dalvoron,

There is an addendum to his plan that might have made it make sense. If he had said something like “I’m giving the universe the chance to make better decisions”, suddenly having half as many people means (probably a little more than) half resource consumption, half the carbon emission, and more time to figure out and implement solutions to these problems. I’m not sure how the housing crisis would pan out, I expect it would get worse. It also makes more sense that he destroys the stones after “I gave the universe its chance, now the ball is in its court”.

This also solves the doubling resource problem. His motives are to pressure people to change their ways. Giving them more stuff might cut hunger, but you’ll just have that hunger again in 50 years and we’d probably increase carbon output to boot, and destroy more environment to get these doubled resources.

I don’t know enough about the stones to say whether “infinite resources” or whatever cheat code would have worked, but they certainly could have dropped a line that it wasn’t possible, or that it would cause more problems than it solved (how does chemistry even work in this universe? If nothing ever gets used in reactions then the chemistry that makes our bodies work is borked)

But anyway, as the Russos did not put this line in, the premise was flawed

Dalvoron,

Pikmin 4. It’s real good. I was always more interested in the environmental puzzles than the combat so the lower difficulty suits me just fine. I got to credits yesterday, then ::: spoiler turns out there’s a whole extra pikmin 1 campaign in there and seems like at least one more area in the main campaign. Must save Oatchi! :::
