That page says 05/2020 launch date, so I think it’s an old tech sheet. Can’t find the tech specs for the mini that’s being announced myself, but didn’t try that hard.

I had no idea it had some basis in mormanism, but I also really wanted a sequel to it. It ended on such an interesting cliff hangar and with Orson Scott Card it seemed like the plot would actually go somewhere.

Haha, I think it’s very likely there are even earlier examples than both of those. I debated counting final fantasy, and did not recall the final boss of Dragon Quest 2.

I think ultimately, Man v God is a story that’s existed for a looong time.

“Doom” is a pretty good one.

“Advent Rising” you find out you are a god.

“Dread Delusion” prisoner to decider of gods fate.

A lot of Kirby games.

Yeah if I had to take a guess shin megami tensei series (1987) is solidly in the “… And then you fight God”, but a lot games even earlier probably did the same.

Sounds like it would be easier to have a single government entity focused on fraud and Healthcare outcomes though.

The main arguement for private health insurance is that it will help better optimize how healthcare is distributed, but in a capatilistic society it seems unlikely we’d get anything other than means based optimization. However, Healthcare shouldn’t be optimized for financial status, but most likely should be optimized for optimal coverage.

Only if your not denied (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

Interesting to know it’s more powerful.

Sounds like they might have improved some of the build quality. That first GDP Win though has probably sullied my opinion of them indefinitely.

It actually makes sense if you think about it from the perspective that ML is about generalizing trends/functions. Simulating the world is hard, generalizing the world based on past observations - easy (with some lossyness).

I had the first GDP Win and after that would never buy something from them again.

Maybe the fourth iteration is better, but I can’t imagine it has better build quality or performance to the deck.

With Tropical Freeze there are ways to make it easier or harder (e.g. funky Kong in the switch version is invulnerable I believe). However 100% the game is a challenge as there are secret levels and collectible challenges (that you don’t need to finish to beat the game).

The issue is it’s going to be trained only on places people go. My understanding is that most geolocating systems are more focused on the uncommon or less traveled locations. Maybe I’m wrong, but I guess they’re probably tested it out before announcing it.

Seems I need to read up more on the specifics of MMT. It feels like you keep contradicting yourself between your posts, but maybe I’m just missing something?

Is that right? I thought the general notion is that demand outpacing supply causes inflation. Doesnt printing money inherently increase demand? That’s why the Fed raised interest rates to fight inflation in the US, it slows money down by making things more expensive (in simplistic terms).

Every senate/house seat the Democrata win makes it all the harder for Republicans to pass any significant legislation.

Just look at what happened with both Trump and Biden. Slim majorities in both house and senate led to a lot of legislation getting killed. Just recall how long it took the house to pick a speaker, while Republicans may have a majority it doesn’t mean they can weild it.

I’ve been saying this since it released. Cool mechanics, but boring world and gameplay. I’m still a bit salty about the loss of real dungeons, nothing in BOTW or TOTK feel as memorable as the previous games.

Maybe they changed things up in later seasons? I don’t recall the first season really getting into anything like that (and I think I only made it 1-2 seasons in).

This was my issue with comedians in cars getting coffee. Felt like being talked down to by rich spoiled celebrities.

Did they actually do that with Leisure Suit Larry? Cause that’s kinda funny.

They should just release metroid prime 5 at this point. Literally dump you into the game as if 4 actually existed.
