whole trip home was audiobook instead of music Just on a whim I figured I'd listen to a new audiobook to kill some time initially, not immediately go to music But instead, I just kept listening to it instead of music So, I guess I've got another series I'm reading
moon
that sounds fun! i love long drives too baddy my caddy is shitted up too much to take a long drive
it's very enjoyable this new toyota got cruice control, so as long as there aren't people ahead of me unable to keep a consistent pace, I can really relax >>1154682 there's an ocean!
naw this is a 2015 model, doesn't have all the new bells and whistles
My mom's shelling out for installing a new head unit in it though, with android auto and stuff I told her it's not necessary, but she's insisting if I want it And I mean, I do want it, I just am not entirely comfortable actually asking for that sort of money I know I'm her only kid and she's fairly well off, but I do feel a bit like a leech asking for money
moon
hell yeah thanks scmom
moon
yeah it's hard to adk for help sometimes especially if its for ssomething you can do wwithout
they got a new car too Like an actual new car A zeekr 001 chinese make, kitted out like crazy with electronics, it's got the gamer LEDs in the doors and dashboard and the front seats even have a massage function fucking thing has a "cinema setting" for when you're parked so you can watch movies or whatever I guess, too insane piece of transport
It was expensive to match, to be fair, but being chinese does push the price into a manageable realm fully electric, doesn't even have a gearbox really cause it only has the one gear plus reverse stupid acceleration I'd have to redline the engine to match by keeping it in first all the way up to like 100km/h
really cool I don't drive enough to really justify an actually new car, though, not to mention I obviously can't fucking afford anything like that
Kinda hope I can move in with my dad again, save up some money, and get a real new car sometime I want the new cool gizmos and stuff, though I don't really want an electric cause then you need a charging station and stuff it's cheaper in the long run, but I like having the option of keeping a can of gas in the car
they can be set to visualizer mode so they bounce and change color with the music
It's a lot of extra stuff that really doesn't matter and will only be used in a "see it can do that too" sense, cause you can't be fucking with that while driving anyway But some of it is real nice from a driving perspective surround cameras for parking and stuff, for example, is something I'd love to have I have the reverse cam but that's all I've got in this one, and that doesn't have the indicator predict my path based on turning, it's just a static image indicating distance and car width on the display
their car also has real bass my toyota doesn't really have good bass, you don't feel it at all, you just hear it which is fine, but I'd love to have real bass
S C
A LOT of this kind of stuff really comes down to "what I have is fine, but I do kinda want the new cool stuff" My peugeot was fine, too, and that thing was fucked in several ways, and the price indicated as much It worked fine, but I'm happy to have something a bit more modern, with better AC and integrated bluetooth and stuff
S C
I also realized the cruise control has two settings it has "keep me at this speed" and you can take your foot of f the gas, as long as you're geared properly but it also has "this is the speedlimit" and it just keeps you from speeding Not entirely sure how much purpose that latter function has, realistically, but it's neat Not because I speed habitually, but because it would be real annoying if I'm trying to pass someone and the car just goes "no you told me this is the max!"
It'd be awful as an always-on function, even if it sounds really good some mfers out there drive slow enough to slow down traffic, but still fast enough to make passing while keeping the speed limit impossible\dangerous
S C
that and just the fucking logistics of making it work are stupid you'd need a comprehensive and always up to date speed limit database of the country's speed limits in the car's GPS system, or it would need to read the signage, which usually or at least somewhat frequently don't show up until you're already onto the highway from the onramp, just cause it's the fucking highway, everyone knows the speed limit there isn't 30km/h
S C
my mom and stepdad's car will also bitch at them if they look away from the road it doesn't DO anything besides make a noise, but that's a neat function even if it's probably really fucking annoying if it's slightly poorly tuned it seems to be well tuned though same with speed limits, it reads signage and nags if you're above it you can turn both those off, but it turns on when the engine's turned on, so you gotta do it every time
work being so close by is a blessing and a curse it's good cause it means the commute is barely even a commute, it's like 4 minutes by car, if that but that also means the drive is too short to listen to audiobooks and the like on the way
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
short is best can always listen on a walk
S C
yeah but having to walk with a uniform sucks ass, and walking back if I end up being on my feet a lot during the workday is painful it's all uphill on my way back
PEAK is actually really fun indie games keep being the real heart and soul of video games
and for once it's not a streamer game streamers will no doubt love it, but it's not one of those games that's way, way more fun to watch than to actually play
made it to the Caldera died immediately on the actual first time through the alpines, so I choose to count this as a first try completion of it I legit just fell down before I even touched ice or snow for the first time, the actual first time around, so
Avorion offers a fair bit more freedom in terms of actual creativity, lets you design ships and stuff The tradeoff is as mentioned that, as a result, it kinda has to fake everything not happening in the sector you're in at any given moment. Voxel-based stuff like that hits a hard wall when you try to do what X4 does, it's barely even a question of resources anymore, you couldn't possibly muster the sheer processing power necessary
X4 is more restrictive in those bits, but the return is everything is very much real. If you post up near a gate critical to a faction's trade and blast everything that comes through, you cripple their econ, and that has real gameplay consequences
S C
well, not everything is real there are a few things that are just kinda magiced into existence Pirate ships, for one, spawn. They're not results of mutiny or infiltration, they do legitimately just appear somewhere in the galaxy But pretty much every other ship, including the AI faction, is built with the same constraints you have as the player I don't even think they cheat resources
S C
Oh, they DO have infinite credits though, which I guess is kind of a cheat, but it's arguably a necessary one to facilitate gameplay.
Anno
ya I should have played it I don't think that this craptop can render the graphixs
The primary hurdle with X4 is your CPU Graphics can be turned down super low, and really it's not that GPU intensive in any event because well... the map is mostly just void to begin with. >>1154756 Couldn't tell ya I'm not entirely certain what I've got myself in this thing
RAM is a bit of a bottleneck too, but the CPU is the really important bit as long as you don't have RAM with mismatched clock speeds
Anno
so what chip set hurts with it? i5, think got a i7 too
Idk played out ED tons and got loads of experience in that
Anno
>>1154755 ya I'm way past the >>mismatched clock speeds >>mismatched clock speeds part of all it :P
S C
mismatched clock speeds is really only something you're gonna encounter with a desktop anyway Laptops are gonna be built with matching sticks
Anno
some LT's you can over clock a bit depending but not really with ram. ez does it :)
S C
you can overclock RAM, too Though I think it's less advisable than overclocking a cpu
S C
then again, I wouldn't advise overclocking anything in a laptop, those things already get way too hot as is
Anno
ya you can upgrade ram cpu on a Lt is not worth it. you can upgrade ram but not cpu socket on LT obvi**
I've just been using it to tell me a story and directing where it goes it's pretty enjoyable
Since it's cut short now, I'm almost tempted to just start it over from scratch and write the thing myself But... I mean, it doesn't actually mean anything It's just a story with a main character I got a little attached to over the course of it, it doesn't have any sort of ethos behind it, so I could never find the dedication needed to actually write it
It was fun while it lasted though, deepseek's gotten surprisingly competent
Well Part of it does mean something The main character eventually became somewhat important to me, which makes sense, I sculpted her and the machine just followed my instructions for her characterization So she has meaning to me
If I somehow get the neurons aligned and write something else, she'd probably be there in spirit, surface details altered to align with the different setting This setting was kinda military-focused, heavily borrowed from youjo senki but without the magic, but I'm not actually much of a /k/ nut, so I wouldn't be able to write something like that, nor would I really care to beyond parts of it catching my interest
I imagine what the machine gave me wouldn't be very interesting to anyone else either, since it just followed along with what I wanted throughout

Can you even call yourself a gamer if you don't hydrate out of one of these
This was "one" of the most remarkable games I've played. The player was better then me, (I think) Anyways it was so back and forth the whole game. I was losing, and started picking off what I could. Idk if it where me I would still have gone ahead and played it out with those knights. I didn't think I could win this game. A GG, no doubt.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
never resign especially when you have a knight
well unless they actually know what they're doing but ya knights can get you forks in a hurried endgame
Anno
ya
Anno
ya it's knid of rare to have two like that towards the end of a game, so rare in fact (unless it's an intended endgame) that I don't think I've ever played a game where it ended with the opponent have a king and a two knights before. kind of*
Like say if you are asking questions and then it after 15 mins or so doesn't respond and then stops loading
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
idk man im sure that happens just if the service goes down or hits a limit or somethin i dont use grok
Anno
ya I don't have much experiance with grok either
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
an LLM will always respond with some kinda token even if it's just "end of response" token it must write something at the end of the transformer pipeline, there is no mechanism where it can decide to give you the silent treatment (but it could write ....... or gibberish or whatever)

hmm ya like it most allways kicks something out thats kind of what it's for

>Mads Mikkelsen, a 21-year-old Norwegian tourist, claims he was denied entry into the U.S. and detained at Newark Airport on June 11 after border agents found a meme mocking JD Vance on his phone.
He was questioned extensively, including about terrorism and drug smuggling, and forced to reveal his phone password under threat of fines or jail.
Two images triggered the denial of entry: one was the JD Vance meme, and another showed Mikkelsen with a homemade wooden pipe.
Mikkelsen says he was subjected to harsh treatment, including a strip search, fingerprinting, and hours in a cell without food or water, before being deported back to Norway.
He described the experience as humiliating and traumatic, and he no longer sees a point in trying to appeal or return to the U.S.
Norwegian authorities reminded travelers it’s their responsibility to know and follow U.S. entry rules, and they cannot intervene in U.S. immigration decisions.
I don't buy them often, but those little cheese wheels that come in nets, like babybel and stuff, are real good snacks this one I got this time is a little sour for me, but still good just not exactly what I'd prefer
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
yeah those are good I prefer the baby bel reds but I dont get them that often cause they're a little pricy
S C
yeah the price is the real sticking point, and you can't really snack on cheese indefinitely like that these are uh happy zoo cheese snacks, dunno if that's a widely sold brand or not, first I've seen of them
!ReneWy59x.
Hytale cancelled it's over gamers
S C
yeah, it's a shame was it another gofundme project or similar, or just self-funded?
!ReneWy59x.
They were funded from a server I think and then Riot stepped in im not too privy to the details
ah It's honestly a little bit strange something like kickstarter or gofundme for stuff like this hasn't shown up with like, the funding not being donations but carrying some form of ownership Like stocks, basically, just a more easy way to get that going and presented to mass amounts of people
Like sure some stuff will still go bust either way, but at least it'll be somewhat buoyed by the stuff that succeeds giving some return on investment to the people who actually helped fund it, beyond a free copy of the game or whatever
The risk:reward of contributing to projects like this is real fucking skewed as it is You carry in essence the entire risk as the one donating, and your potential payout is a copy of the finished product which in most cases will retail at less than your donation to begin with Sure you get the satisfaction of helping out, but you get jack shit and you're just down financially if it peters out into nothing, as a lot of them do
!ReneWy59x.
if only they were gofunded I could say they took the money and Hytaled it
S C
Hell you don't even have a real recourse if they just... scam you outright Say they're making a game, produce a few years of bogus "dev updates" to keep you placated, then disappear as they "ran out of money" I'm not saying many are doing it, but legally speaking they certainly could, as it's just donations with no actual obligations from the receiver's end
S C
though I think kickstarter does have some legal print that technically holds people accountable, to some extent Something like "if the goal is reached, you gotta actually make a good faith effort to see the project realized" or whatever, I suppose you could demand an audit of the project if\when it goes belly up to determine if they pissed the money away or just failed despite their best efforts
also I know it's already a setting with what amounts to magic but isn't the whole idea of something "draining your lifespan" just kinda... strange? Unparseable? Nobody ever just like, dies due to time When someone "dies of old age", it's not literally age that killed them, it's usually something like a failing immune system or something like that Those things are in a sense on a clock, sure, but that's a sort of "after x generations, cell replication begins to fail due to accumulated errors" thing, not literally time
In and of itself, there's no reason humans wouldn't be immune to the teeth of time if our cells just replicated perfectly the whole time. Hell we have cells like that, we as in the species. There's a cancercell culture extracted from someone or other way, way back that's still being used for whatever they use that shit for, it's replicating fine. To some degree I guess the perfection of replication is what makes something a cancer That and refusing the kill code, which I guess is the actual defining trait
well, caught up on the nana manga remains pretty engaging 100+ chapters in, though some of the stuff that's been introduced is a little... Idunno, kinda kills the stakes a bit I guess
without spoiling too much, at this point in the story, practically any issue that goes from activation to end result within the span of 24 hours is trivialized and can only remain meaningfully tense through idiocy
The story's managed to stay worthwhile by raising the stakes a bit and actually developing the plot further than "Cute girl serial murders supes on an island", but still
S C
I suppose there is something to be said for how the whole story's very clearly premeditated, though None of the reveals feel like asspulls, there's a powerful sense of all of them having been planned from the outset, not introduced and pulling on pieces of information from earlier to make it SEEM planned Whether that actually is the case isn't possible to really know, but that's how it comes off at least. The Big Bad's motivations are the only thing that really seems like it's gone through multiple stages of development before landing on the current one, mostly because he's set up as hypercompetent but the actual stuff he's done doesn't seem like a good way to go about it
Also there is something really weird about Nana's phone not having Kyoya's Talent, immortality, actually listed Not because "they should know! they sent him to the island!" since at least conceivably they could just know he's real fucking resilient to physical trauma But because it is revealed later in the story that him being immortal specifically is something he found out through some sort of government office that evaluated him, he didn't even really know he had anything that special about him prior to that So like Paperwork exists explicitly categorizing him not as "tough", but immortal And that's the sort of power you'd put high priority on conveying to someone tasked with eliminating all the people on the island, including him And even if it develops further than immortality, as some powers do in the story, immortality itself is already at the actual S tier of superpowers
I wonder if his relatively lean and unmuscular build was consciously decided on because his power would, realistically, actually make it really really hard to get swole, since he has done a whole shitload of manual labor, like an excessive amount. A normal person doing the work he did prior to the island would be fucking built But since he's got wolverine or better healing factor, he wouldn't really be able to get all that much stronger. Shielded from muscular atrophy, but prevented from the process that builds muscle by the same mechanism, you know Or was it just like, "we gotta have a bishie"?
I guess you could go either way with healing factors, if you wanted, though It can either completely cripple your ability to gain muscle, or make it REALLY fucking easy Just depends how you make it function
Wolverine seems to be in the "it's easy\somehow unimpacted" category, since that short king is kinda ripped
actually... why is wolverine so short? does he just want to be short? I mean OK, post adamantium skeleton, it's not viable, but prior to it he could literally have just broken his legs on purpose to extend them by healing, right?
I get way too caught up with details when it comes to powers like regen, really It's just one of a few select powers where the specifics of how it works actually matters a great deal Wolverine and Deadpool both can come back from being like... at least broken down to individual cells, possibly atomization, which means their regen is not just "faster healing", it's the ability to reconstitute their entire physical form, brain and all. The concept of "death" literally doesn't exist for them beyond a sort of "dead god" type deal where you lodge something in their heart or something and keep it there with more force than the regen can muster in opposition If you cut their arm off, they grow another one. It can't be dependent on something like available calories or the like either, cause as mentioned they can come back from being broken down into individual cells, none of which will have the actual energy in them to refabricate the whole body, obviously. So they're outright producing new matter, or at minimum reconfiguring the matter around them >>1154936 Yeah that's certainly possible
It does mean they should in theory be able to do a lot of cool shit nobody ever does with this particular power though Very big wall? just uuuuh... produce whatever amount of corpses of yourself are necessary to climb it It does imply there is some singular core cell, though, since when split apart into many tiny pieces, it's not like several of them grow back into a guy, it's always just one guy coming back >>1154937 Naw, you only ever get the one wolverine
It could be some sort of etherlink between the cells I suppose, with several "core" cells, and whichever one starts regenning first issues the others a kill signal so they don't do the same That would make the most sense, as there's never like, a new wolvering growing back out of his body because the core was separated by some sort of attack or something
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
short king lower center of gravity more stable
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
maybe the cells are really good at using ambient energy
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
if you got two wolverine cells separated would you get a clone
S C
hell if you wanna get really dark with it, you could conceivably make an eternal powersource by just locking wolverine in a furnace and lighting a match organic matter burns, he regens relatively fast and with seemingly no concern whatsoever for any input
So you could just burn him eternally and produce a steady electrical output It's not gonna be enough to power a city or anything, but I'm sure you can find a use case for it
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
reminds me of distributed replicated servers when in a disorganized state they have to vote on who becomes the new leader it gets complicated
why doesnt academy city just lock biribiri in a room with a tesla coil
S C
Well biribiri does need to eat, and while I'm not entirely certain, I do think her electricity adheres to some sort of rules Still viable though, I mean they do have a lot of biribiris
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
disrupt the wind turbine industrial complex
Anno
>>1154942 ya spider girl doesn't really much either mostly kale chips and well maybe some other stuff
S C
What makes stuff like this more important for Nana than most other stories though is that the specifics of how powers function is front and center as perhaps the single most important detail in the show, at least the part the anime covers
So it's actually kind of important what is happening when someone manifests fire or ice, for example
teleportation is another one of those powers where the details matter a lot if you can teleport objects or people by touching them, what counts as an object? I'll happily accept that your clothes just come with you because the author isn't writing porn, but like, what exactly is "an object"?
not really, it's kinda distinct with no insult or aspersions intended, it kinda reminds me of how some people react by throwing out tangentially related greentext >implications when they're questioned on something wrong they've said Like that's not what you do, but it has a similar vibe to it somehow, like it's just how you talk even when not defensive
Anno
well, if I'm wrong about something and someone points it out and it makes sence most time I'm will to accept it and learn from it if there something to be gained.
S C
well I gotta bounce, it's 10 to 8 and I start work at 8
Anno
dont't be surpised if I bring up or convo about teleportation and other sci fi type topics at least it's something worth conversing about even if it's hypothetical or in my case boarderline "vauage"?!?!? :P

i wish we as humans had more chewable snacks we have chewing gum, but i mean like fibrous stuff
i mean our great ape cousins have all sorts of barks and bamboos to chew on our masseter is our strongest muscle and it's directly connected to our mandibular nerves, and thus our brainstem we're meant to be chewing things like all the time it's just good for our mental health
that's what they do in thailand with the kratom leaf but you try to get kratom over here in the states and it's just ground up powder like you're supposed to chew on that and get the alkalines in through your saliva you aren't supposed to digest the freakin thing in your stomach
S C
dog tastebuds aren't similar enough to human to make >>1155021 a viable option, really dogfood is fucking nasty, but dogs love that shit
Anno
dundundun raw hyde wwwhooppish
Anno
>>1155022 hey what the deal woith kratom I'm not experiance with that leaf in partic it's a relaxer like hippy lectus
It won't actually help the whole chewing craving, but flavored snus is actually a good way to always have something moderately tasty in your mouth, and also it's better than smoking I mean it might fuck your gums long term, but your gums aren't nearly as vital as your lungs, so in terms of lesser evils, snus goes crazy
moon
you're supposed to dip the leaf in water and chew on it kinda like a mint leaf
Anno
oh I seem a ad for it it was pillls so get it in the natural essance?
You trade charisma for endurance, basically scuffed gums looks bad scuffed lungs is really fucking bad in a lot of ways
it's why I swapped, I know myself well enough to realize outright quitting is gonna take some doing, but I don't wanna end up with like 15 stamina points at age 30
Anno
>>1155027 A wise one trained me to drink the mint leaf tea! I don't do it enough I forget some times I have a glass jar witht some in it and fuggin <3 the shizo, it's good and you only need a tiny pince xcause its strong pinch*
moon
>>1155025 it's an opioid stimulant it binds to the opioid receptors but it stimulates so it's a weird thing where it's not // it helps you relax but keeps you kinda focused on whatever you're doing without being a CNS stimulant
S C
I guess there's chewing tobacco, too, though I honestly don't really know if we've got that here we've got oliver twist, my stepdad uses that despite quitting smoking entirely My mom's off the nicotine, none nicotine products at all anymore A short while before they both decided to kick cigs, they were in sweden and bought as much as the quota allows, so when I came over I returned with like, several cartons of cigs. Not my brand, but still, that was neat
moon
ah yeah i should get some chewing tobacco i like that stuff a lot but i keep forgetting it exists and just getting gum instead
S C
You could get nicotine gum outright, but personally I just don't get the same satisfaction from gum as snus or cigs It's in a weird place cause it's too active and also too long-term Cigs are 5 minutes of active smoking, more if you're being slow about it Snus is like, an hour, hour and a half of just passive nicotine drip under your lip Nicotine gum is the worst option cause it's active for like, way too long
my ass is just addicted I'm sure I COULD quit, it's not like it's gonna completely screw me if "oh no, nicotine is banned now", but I don't really want to enough to actually do it Besides I'd miss the snus pouch I miss cigs now and then, so I do carry a pack with me. Lasts fucking forever cause it's like maybe a cig or two a week, but still
moon
i feel like i just want the actual tobacco leaf like not chewing tobacco all ground up but an actual tobacco leaf to just chew on
or like those grape leaves or whatever they're called that they wrap rice in sometimes to make it real sticky and tasty i could probably chew on one of those for a while
Anno
Ia get Nicugarian stoogies and much on the leafs helps tons and it's not even addictive as nico salts I get* >>1155039
moon
>>1155036 do you got american spirits up there? i kinda figure you wouldn't but idk
oh no it's a cigarette brand called american spirits they are 100% tobacco without any additives for "smooth smoking" or whatever and they end up being so dense as a result, like they take 15 minutes to smoke one and they burn super slow but they're really good and just one of 'em is more than enough
so the packs last a really long time, but they're a bit pricier
S C
like, booze? I mean, some of the more common brands sure
Oh, naw Maybe some non-chain store carries it, but certainly not the big grocery chains, I've been behind the register of all of them on at least one occasion and never seen taht
S C
Oh, maybe they're classed as cigarillos instead of cigs so maybe we do have it I can check on monday if I remember
I tried cigarillos once on a lark but it's just not for me, even when I primarily smoked
>>1155041 they would be classed as cigarettes they aren't cigars or cigarillos it's perique tobacco so they're like kinda rare i guess? but maybe there's an equivalent of some sort like without the additives to make them all cancery
ah then we ain't got them, naw we've got like a handful of cig brands Prince, Paramount, Marlboro, Ken, L&M, Level, Lucky Strike, Petteröes, Tiedemans, and... I think that's it? Prince is by far, like REALLY by far, the most smoked brand of cigs here The little cubby with the cigs behind the register has like 1-2 slots for each brand, but Prince has 4 slots dedicated to Red
>>1155045 i had a cigar in vegas with doc i got a terrible headache from the dehydration afterwards they were so fuckin thick i think it took us like two hours to smoke it
Oh, we've got camels, too Camels I've sold... less than 5 packs off in my whole time behind the register, Marlboro's more common, Paramound is a second to Prince L&M I didn't even know existed until I started this job, but there's maybe 3 people in the area who smoke it and buy stuff at our shop
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
I have a friend who is super nostalgic for Camel cash. you would get these lile *like fake dollars with Camel brandinv on them and trade them for prizes.
moon
>>1155047 maybe it was over a decade ago i dont remember cray to think we found /moe/ in 2011 and it's still around
S C
My ass was a Lucky Strike enjoyer cause they used to have these flavored cigs that came in packs of 5x2 of different flavors >>1155054 Naw, I think you gotta go to the pharmacy for those here Gum I tried but gave up on, too inconvenient
turkish tabacco is pleasent camels are the bomb marbrothers too are sort of the same
moon
camel turkish royals are some good shit
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
they should make nicotine sucking candy
S C
I mean lucky strike probably still does make those flavored packs, but they pumped the brakes on it at a government level, too easy for kids to start smoking the potato chip and bubblegum flavored ciggies
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
would probably violate a ton of drug laws though...
Anno
just get the boy some kools menthals and no more overclooking EVER
S C
>>1155057 I mean snus is in many ways kinda like that, though you don't actually suck on the pouches
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1155061 snus destroys your gums cause of all the garbage in it
>>1155064 I use the synthetic stuff Skruf Epok before, but they discontinued my favorite one >>1155067 Still counts as snus here, just called white snus
but yeah the white pouches are synthetic Apparently actually kinda worse for you than real tobacco snus, in some ways, but the real tobacco doesn't come with blueberry or jalapeno flavor

I gotta fucking find that picture of this ome guy's desk I'm in a discord with him and when the vtuber did a desk review stream he had like 20 fucking zyn containers on his desk and a life size vtuber standee to the right of his desk. so we were joking about him spitting zyn at the standee whenever she said something he didn't like
S C
I'm not entirely sure I've ever sold a single pack of zun zyn
I think we've got'em, but I've legit never seen or heard of anyone buying one The ones in the snus fridge could have expired years ago for all I know
yeah well this is Norway Right next to Sweden, home of the snus Though I think there are some Norwegian brands too, I just dunno which they are

when i worked at circle k, there was a thing where you buy a pack of cigs and zun would give you a free pack of those things but nobody ever asked for them, so the manager would just ring it up and then take a pack for himself after they left
>>1155075 That shit wouldn't be legal here lmao That's tobacco advertising, outright illegal Same with alcohol adverts, or gambling for that matter
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1155076 advertising tobacco and alcohol is illegal? that's fucked up I'm okay with banning gambling ads though
S C
yeah I mean you're allowed to present the wares in the store (not tobacco, hidden behind a little screen even, though it does say tobacco sometimes, behind the register) But you're not allowed to actually put out ads or stuff for baccy or booze
moon
that's not fair imo all advertising should be illegal what's with the preferential treatment
I mean gambling establishments aren't legal in the first place, but there are like, state-run slot machines and horseracing and stuff, usually in gas station ...actually, horse races and a few other types of strictly speaking gambling aren't covered, I'm not entirely sure of the details, might be something like "has to be actual % gaming" or something? Cause horse races aren't actually RNG machines, those are real animals running fast
Anno
oh ya there K O D I A C too
S C
Though, ALL forms of anything that counts as actual gambling, like, really any sort of money game more involved than a coin pusher at a carnival, is state monopolized At least I think the horse races are government, I'm not 100% certain now that I'm saying it
S C
There IS the recycling lottery, but I think they're getting around it cause you're not technically putting in actual money, you're putting in your recycling credits, which can be turned in directly for cash, but can only be acquired through, you know, recycling a bottle or a can
S C
that and the recycling lottery is red cross I think, so they might have a deal with the government on it Proceeds go to charity, every now and then you get a payback bigger than your recycling return would have been
S C
hell, getting VERY technical, you're not actually turning in your recycling credits, you choose whether you want that or the lottery once you're done putting in the bottles and cans in the machine
S C
in any case it's not something you can realistically use to fuel a gambling addiction what are you gonna do, stand next to the machine chugging coca cola and spinning the wheel?
moon
can you recycle unwanted pets or children
S C
unfortunately not, though people do try with the pets

>>1155108 check this shit out https://suricrasia.online/iceberg/
Peak gets really difficult once you start doing ascension levels level 1 isn't that bad, some extra falldamage is very manageable as long as you're careful level 2 gets a fair bit worse, hunger increasing real fast means you can't always be so careful and you're always on the clock level 3 makes items weigh moer so that's another problem level 4 I dunno yet cause dutchfriend and I didn't start 3 yet
i met one of my oshis at offkai a bunch of times and now she keeps telling me she wants me to fly out to see her other performances this year whats gonna happen to my wallet
>>1155063 what if you had a clean leaf of bacco and added your own flav's even a pinch of sea salt well maybe it would work, could it work, it could work, you know?

en passant is forced
Anno
ya I was like wth but shouldn't that have been check though seeing as the queen made the CM right after like if you were playing on a live board you got say say theres no move to make? or maybe you could have moved a different peice and then it would not have ended there?
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
in live chess usually if you make an illegal move the opponent points it out and you just take it back unless it's a Serious game then you just lose
