Being an activist ≠ ok to be killed.

Or am I just being confused by poor wording in title?

Yeah, probably so he can start a similar company and get his piece of the pie.

I still have to take a second to actually process the analog time (at least for minutes)

1. Analog clocks are not “common” out in the world. Not where these kids are.

2. people with an interest in watches are a small percentage of people with watches. And most are “boomers” who don’t actually have an interest in watches beyond as a status symbol.

I would imagine so - smell alone probably gives them a pretty accurate idea, but people also pet differently (probably not as uniquely as a fingerprint but differently enough)

Some people are heavy petters some light, some only pet in one direction, some only pet certain areas (head only, flank only, etc.) And so on.

At least with a brick and mortar store you actually know what you’re getting*

*to a degree. You still won’t know how well it will actually hold up in the real world - but you can at least get an idea of it’s construction (Materials/stitching and so on) that you don’t/can’t get via an online shop (especially with all the bogus reviews nowadays)

"The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet."

I mean thats kind of a good thing? And it’s right in the name? Universal Basic

UBI should be enough to comfortably survive - at least enough to cover food and shelter (with associated costs ie electricity/water/heat)

Working a job while on UBI would pay for enrichment type stuff - vacations night at the movies etc.

As it is now working doesn’t guarantee any of the 1st category that UBI should/would cover never mind the 2nd.

As far as I’m aware it is bullshit, but some places may have it as an actual rule.

In single-player games I occasionally “lightly” cheat.

Using “infinite” mods or unlock “everything” mods just ruins all the fun for me.

But unlock a specific thing or get a small amount of rss type cheats that reduce grind I like.

Yeah that’s why I never really got into the scouts - it felt culty (not that I could articulate that back then.)

What’s that thing on the corner kitty’s collar?

It depends on a few factors.

The biggest one being why it’s flaccid and/or has runny cheese - Some pizzas are just greasy and lead to flaccid crust/runny cheese. And a greasy pizza isn’t necessarily bad.

Just like a burnt hot dog isn’t necessarily bad either. Seriously - a somewhat burnt hot dog can be delicious depending on the circumstances - just like an ice cold beer hits different outside on a hot day.

Ooo it’s finally on steam early access!

Yes it’s better in a group. Or at the very least just playing on a multiplayer server is better imo than single player. (At least until npcs are in)

“Our current strategy is to use quadruple that amount every month”.

One more step towards the great firewall.

Get to know my neighbors? C’mon dude no way.

They’ll just keep carrying on
