Argentine tango. I like doing it with my partner, but I have zero desire to compete or travel to Argentina or even seek out the best teachers available. I can lead strangers and have enough variety in vocabulary that I don’t get bored. That’s enough.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Did you at least include the shrimp

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

I think you’d lose just as much iron if not more iron in the blood you’d lose consuming that apple.

Tunic is another example that he goes over in the video. There might be some others mentioned but it’s been a while since I watched this.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Have you never met a Klingon before? They’ve got redundancy.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Yep, I wish Darn Tough had socks that didn’t look like the ugliest mosaic ever.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Ah, the Costanza school of wallet organization.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Nature’s Nether Regions. About weird sex stuff in the animal kingdom. Evolution winds up making some strange things like dragonfly vibrators and snail impregnation duels.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Wait, memes aren’t serious business?

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Yep. The male lead from The Cutting Edge talks about loving the smell of ice. Toe pick.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

That sounds like a fun story, like a Pride and Prejudice and Zombies but instead it’s Master and Commander and Megalodon.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

There’s a snake in my free real estate?

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Ah, I was squatting and it was becoming a thumbs down. Thanks for the clarification, I can now tell the person with the traffic cone they’re doing a great job.

Stardew Valley and Stardew Valley: Fire Walk with Me

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

So I’m still going to need the wiki to understand anything.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

The amount of carpet in wet locations 🤢

Triton fighter. Finally, underwater combat.

Plus they love it when you pull off their headphones to ask what they’re reading.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

I mean, kinda. But not in the same way, more like Bethesda makes shit games that modders fix.

What did you think of Sea of Stars?

I thought that it was overall good fun. The battle system is excellent and the music is great. The characters are cool and generally quite enjoyable. However, the standard ending of the game really annoyed me. It’s totally anti-climactic. I really don’t want to go back and do a bunch of side quests (collectathon in...

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

The combat felt really slow to me, but I continued for a while until the game soft locked by just putting the characters in a small, black room. Nothing I could find fixed that and there wasn’t enough of a draw to really look for a fix. Might try again at some point but it was only so so for me overall.

“chemically similar”

Ffs, chirality is just one example of chemicals that are “similar” but that can have very different effects. Thalidimide is one example where a molecule was useful for morning sickness in pregnant women, but its mirror image molecule caused birth defects.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

The dairy industry can have a little cruelty to calves, as a treat.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

For example: Third Mate Gregory Cousins. I mean, I certainly wouldn’t invite him to a party, but I can’t choose to not interact with what he caused.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

How does it prevent that?

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

“neither of which would be acceptable…”

And how does one reject that? Do you think profit maximization goes away under anarchy? You’re missing very basic parts of your utopia to deal with things when people don’t act perfectly, intentionally or not.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Nifty, didn’t know much about the economic specifics of anarchy (ancaps give you guys a bad name and are much louder). I’ll have to dig a little deeper there as I’ll admit I’m ignorant.

I still don’t see how anarchy provides sufficient mechanisms to deal with economic bads. Like even if the worker-owned cooperative handles hydrocarbon transport perfectly, there’s still environmental impacts from the use of that product. The incentive to do damaging things to others (pollution, climate change) is still present even in the absence of non-personal economic incentives (e.g. portable fuel for personal vehicles). Do you have anything to point me at for learning a bit more about how anarchy deals with that?

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

I’ll look into it a bit more, but claiming decentralized hydrocarbon extraction wouldn’t be feasible but biogas etc would be is a stretch to me, especially with the caveats of needing minimized demand or having new technology available.

And while I understand not claiming to have all the answers (and this not being the best medium for long explanations), dealing with economic bads is a fundamental issue. Not having a sufficient solution is a big part of why we’ve got climate change, micro plastics in everything, etc., in the current system. I’m not a pollyanna; I don’t think figuring it out along the way is sufficient.

Anyway, thanks for the conversation. You introduced me to some new ideas. I think it’s getting a little too hand-wavy to continue, though. You’ve got me curious enough to look up some things, so I think this counts as a success for both of us. Have a good one.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

“they often don’t really need someone telling them how to do it…”

I don’t share that level of optimism. So many current laws are written in blood, so to speak, because people are lazy or just ignorant even ignoring the crappy incentives in capitalism and hierarchies. I absolutely want standards for bridge construction, for example. Or food handling. Gotta get all that grease from somewhere, right? Doesn’t take a jack in the box to give people e. coli. Got any ideas for a pessimist on that kind of point?

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Satasupe. It’s a Japanese ttrpg. The name is a shortening of Saturday Night Special, and the game focuses on zany crime capers. I did a translation of it for a friend but nothing much came of it. If your character ever became too good or evil, they became an NPC, which was a nice mechanic to keep players from acting like saints or demons. …wordpress.com/…/happy-15th-anniversary-satasupe/

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Mine are named after ATLA characters. Vacuum is Aang, mopper is Katara, litter robot is Lin Beifong (it has clay litter; the previous iteration was Toph), and the cat feeder is Lau Gan-Lan.

If it’s not illegal, why would it be on the deep web? Legal businesses that want to be on the web can be without much effort.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Not a full answer, but some interesting info about metals and cremation collier-law.com/…/cremation-what-happens-to-the-m…

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Yep, especially if you’re a Green Lantern

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

The male model only version could be c/bricksanddicks

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Typically you want the business end of the salt shaker aimed towards a dish.
