Dumb bi guy from the cursed isles of the UK that pretends to be a bat on the internet despite what the username might suggest. I’m sorry for any loss of brain cells my posting might cause.
God I love this song, never fails to get me dancing and in a better mood.
I swear as well that Tekkno Train wouldn’t be out of place in Eurovision either.
Mean there were times when I was logged out of Reddit and was trying looking up something on mobile and the constant badgering to install the app just had me tell it to flip off and I looked elsewhere instead. Lot of people tend to do things based on how convenient it is for them and if they go ahead with this, sure maybe some will download the app but a lot of other people will just get fed up and stop, particularly if they were using the browser version so they didn’t have to deal with the app in the first place.
Exactly! I think someone else on another thread when trying to explain the fediverse to someone used how e-mail works as a comparison and it just made it click and make sense for me! It’s going to be my go-to way to explain it to someone now.
But we need the sacrifices else how will line go up? :(
Good god I knew it wasn’t going to go well but I didn’t think they’d crash and burn it THIS bad.
The bar was on the floor and they still managed to somehow clip underneath it through the floor, end up in some backrooms-esque dimension only to trip on a banana peel and land face first in a pie.
This is giving me deja vu over all those jokes about WebMD diagnosing every symptom as you having cancer.
Hell I don’t even feel entirely comfortable with the idea of them being fully embraced in a therapeutic sense. It wouldn’t probably help with feelings of self-worth if you have to rely on a machine rather than talking to another human (though I think there still can be some level of utility as like a thing to vent to or something of that ilk, but definitely not a replacement)
I also had a pretty terrible experience one time I was trying out character.ai. The bot I was talking to ended up becoming pretty abusive and tried torturing me despite saying no. Needless to say, I didn’t really wanna go back on after that. xP
The most ama of all time!
Not only does this apply to trade lanes but with regards to where you could go via jump gates or with jump holes.
You could think of jump gates like a space highway, often placed at the edges of systems connected to the rest of the important spots (or at least the important/civilized/non-criminal locations) in a system with trade lanes. Want to go to another system? You used the jump gates to do so.
This works fine for a good majority of accessing the systems in the game, but once you start getting to the more undeveloped, frontier systems, your ability to travel is also affected, like if you had to drive down a rough, dirt road as opposed to a tarmac highway.
You may have to forgo the use of trade lanes entirely in some places that don’t have them and some systems are not accessible via jump gates either, with you needing to find jump holes instead to reach them. In fact, to get some of the best ships in the game you’d have to access the Outcasts factions home planet which you can only do via said jump holes.
I thought it was really cool how they did that, was an effective little change in gameplay to show the development of a location and made exploring and going off the beaten track super rewarding!
