>>218785 Today with my mom: cancer-sniffing dogs I guess its true but still
>>218792 You can avoid having sex with people that have HIV and avoid sharing needles with people that have HIV. Both of those are things people with the kind of money to afford that kind of dog generally do naturally with some exceptions here and there.
Rich people generally have their prostitutes screened, too.
Maria
>>218793 What if you're rich and a manslut. Then you'd have a use for the sniffer dog. >prostitutes It's just not the same thing
>>218795 Oh I assumed that the dog could just sniff them That'd be really awkward I think the moral of this story is that having sex with strangers is a bad idea
>>218794 Even if you could just have the dog sniff someone, people would need to be aware that it's an infection-sniffing dog, otherwise they'd interact with it in ways that ruin its training. And then it wouldn't sniff out HIV anymore.
>>218798 ToN will be trying to play from his phone.
That'll be really difficult considering we have two threads to monitor, typing on /moe/ with a phone is kind of difficult sometimes, and phone posting is considerably slower than normal posting.
If it slows down the game so significantly that we can't do anything, I'm going to have to rethink how we do things and figure out a way for us to play.
Do you wish you as a leader could reduce the amount of your disgruntled subjects who are taken seriously? Introducing poverty Your people will disregard the opinion of the poor, because they have failed to be rich in the system they're complaining about, rendering their complaint irrelevant

I like this image. It's so cute. On one hand, I wish it had the upper portion.
But at the same time, what if the upper portion isn't as cute as the bottom portion?
Maybe I only like this image because the upper portion is missing. Maybe that's what makes it so appealing. The upper portion exists in my mind, so it's exactly what I want to see.
>>218914 It's extremely cute. That struggle to retain your modesty is extremely cute!
No way. There's a balance you have to find. If you go too far in complimenting someone, it sounds unrealistic and they might doubt you! You have to be precise in compliments.
>>218931 I want my compliments to be taken seriously. When I compliment someone, I really mean it. I compliment people because I want them to know exactly what I think of them or their performance. If I go overthetop, it won't be taken seriously! When I tell Fish that she's beautiful, I want her to be absolutely sure that I mean it. I want that because I think it's important for people to know when they're important to you, and also a little bit because if she thinks I'm exaggerating and doesn't take it seriously, she might not get embarrassed and fidget cutely.

We watched kimi wo name of whatever last night. The animation and prdocution value were really both tip top tier, but I feel that such good production was kinda wasted on the plot. The story and characters weren't really anything special.
Attwood attacks kannagi with Ancient Mace (87%) Kannagi blocks with short spear 51% 86% hit chance Attwood is blessed by orc gods Attwood hits with 44 damage, kannage is launched at bang2 and collides with him for 38 extra damages kannagi has armour of 4 points, so kannagi takes 78 damage and is in coma bang2 takes 28 damage

i think we would probably use agenda, schedule, or calendar for anything that's keeping notes about upcoming things
They are like this. You usually get them for a period of year but mine is a 5 year diary. All the dates are preprinted, you just fill in what appointments or future plans you have and check if you are available or when you need to do something by

A Jap I follow on Twitter posted a screenshot of a character's upskirt from Dragon Quest 11 the character has spats under her dress. He's really upset about it.
Anno
You get to pick between three options for girls bottoms in Splatoon 2, either spats, close-fitting exercise pants, or a skirt with spats underneath with the spats sticking out slightly. The skirt option is actually pretty nice. More 3D games could go with dress/skirts with spats underneath and I'd be happy with it
It irritates me when games have like libraries where you can rotate and look at all the character models but the ones wearing skirts have some ridiculous limitations on how you can rotate them.
I wasn't aware that persona 5 had that, a lot of the ateliers and valkyria chronicles is like that though. They should use spats or a darkening effect up there instead of limiting how you can rotate the models.

>>219496 There's a lot of numbers in economics, but in the end I think people need to remember that economies are made up of ordinary people. It's sad when the villagers get thrown out of their towns because the local governer got bribed.
What sorta restaurants do you like? Is there a particular kinda food you love?
>>219498 Wow they're a friend to everyone. What a nice person.

>>219510 Because the invester guy wanted to build a city I like the food at restaurants, but I don't like the waiting at all or the need to constantly make small talk while waiting for food Seafood is delicious. Prawns and crabs are the best. I like with crabs how you gotta scoop the meat out of it's claw and stuff. And then afterwards you've still got the claw left over and stuff Muscles are also really good I don't know how to explain it, but crab meat tastes good in a way that feels healthy and filling But something like KFC tastes good in a way that's greasy and gross

>>219570 The big thing on the front of it It's not the thing tht the bullets come out of though
>>219576 People buy apartment buildings because they think that some day they'll be valuable and they'll be able to make money off of them So then other people see those people buying it to make money which raises the price, and then they buy them This continues and the price keeps on going up because people keep selling these apartments to other people who plan to sell these apartments Eventually it gets to the point where they realise that the value won't increase anymore and the value of the apartments drops
A few people do live in these cities, but not enough. It ends up looking very deserted.

Would you still love him if he became a robot? Do you have a favourite robot?
>>219627 thank you, i believe that it is but it's more fun to make it for other people so they can enjoy it than for myself but if everyone's allergic then it's no fun at all in fact it's the opposite of fun it's gay
Anno
>>219630 That is sad. Can the people get better jobs so they can afford the apartments?
I would love him no matter what. Do marine drones count as robots?
Maria
>>219634 It depends on where they live and their circumstances. Some people move up to the middle class. A lot of them seem content in the documentary to live in little villages instead of apartments though. China has a lot of villages with their own little historys and subcultures. I guess marine drones would count as robots. It's pretty impressive how far deep some of them can go. They take the pressure that humans wont. Deep sea life is cool. I hope we can build cities on the ocean floor that'd be cool.

>>219704 People would not be able to go deep enough to go into them without assistance. They are usually full of dead animals though. >>219706 Sebastian lied to you!
>>219708 This is very cool. The theory is that about 200 million years ago there was a small sea where the lake is currently located. As the world changed the area was flooded by seawater but the concentration of methane and hydrogen sulfide was so great in that sea that it could not mix with the seawater. This resulted in a large pocket of very hot and very deadly water contained within a large, underwater basin. There are areas where the basin is broken which creates underwater rivers which carry the water away from the lake.
>>219705 maybe someone who's into taxidermy (like my sister) would like to go there and collect the dead animals to taxidermy i don't like dealing with dead animals personally, it's kind of creepy but i've seen my sister's taxidermies and they're cool what kind of animals die at the lakes? like sea horses, sea deer, sea porcupines?

You will be able to see the layer where the fresh water transitions into salt water. The ocean has a layer called a halocine which is a layer of salt. Halocines are common in many caves too. >>219735 My favorite deep sea creature is the blobfish. >>219738 What do you mean by stale?

>>219758 it sounds like a lot of fun my body couldn't handle diving too well! i got really sick i will wait until VR diving is more commercially available to try again
Anno
>>219759 The blobfish is mostly a gelatine-like fat with low density so that it can float easily. It lives at depths where it does not have the guarantee of food so this adaptation allows it to avoid using energy. The pressure where it lives is about 100 times higher than the ocean surface so its gelatine-like body looks differently at lower pressure. Does that make sense? I am not sure if I am explaining it well enough. >>219760 I like to dive. It is sad that not everyone ca Matt thinks he is busy with my paste button on the tablet pasted by accident. I am sorry about that. It is sad that not everyone is able to dive.

haha it's okay
Anno
>>219761 Yeah, I get it. That was a very good explanation. I'd like to see a blobfish at its natural depth. Is it difficult to dive deep enough to see it?
>>219761 it made my ears bleed when i tried and also other places bleed it was a really cool experience but i am happy with the one i had and will enjoy watching videos of dives in the mean time i sometimes watch livestreams of diving expeditions and submarine oceanographers i think that stuff is cool, but i'm a physicist so my only knowledgeable connection with the ocean is its floor and the tectonic plate formations which can be pretty interesting
Anno
>>219767 The area they inhabit is roughly 7000-9000 meters below the surface of the ocean so it is difficult to see them at their natual depth. >>219768 That sounds very scary. Do you think VR diving will be big? Matt thinks it will be.
月
>>219771 I think that it already is big. I tend to be a little over-ambitious about things though I've at least come across it and been excited about it
You need a pretty nice submarine to go that deep, don't you?
Anno
>>219771 There's already established video games that involve exploring underwater environments. Subnautica in particular comes to mind. Being able to transition that setting into a VR system would make the immersion for the game even more interesting.
And that's putting aside the concept of just free exploration of an underwater environment without video game mechanics involved, for people that aren't as interested in video games.

>>219775 A solo submarine that cost roughly 8 million dollars was able to reach almost 11000 meters below the surface. It is very dangerous though. Similar unmanned submarines have imploded at lesser depths. >>219778 I do not think anything but diving will ever feel like diving.
Anno
>>219781 What about underwater VR simulating underwater diving?
Anno
>>219785 I do not think so. Being underwater does not feel like diving.
Anno
VR does extend the chance to enjoy diving to people that might not otherwise the visual and auditory experience though. Might not otherwise experience it, even. If they can get to the point where they can imitate those experiences as close as possible, then that's pretty great.
>>219781 So the person who was in it risked having the submarine implode on them?
Anno
>>219793 I think you would need to be able to simulate water pressure and temperature. If someone cannot dive then the pressure will probably be a problem for them. >>219796 Yes. It was James Cameron in the instance I mentioned.
So he makes movies but he also dove super deep in a sub?
Anno
>>219809 What else would you do if you had a million billion avatar dollars?
Maria
>>219809 I hear he likes the ocean a lot. He made Aliens which makes him cool.
Anno
>>219809 He dives in submarines and films underwater scenes. He also is planning an asteroid mining business.
Anno
Cameron engages in a lot of diving activities.
>>219810 He was doing diving expeditions even before he directed Avatar. I read a rumor once that he got on-board directing Titanic so that he could do diving expeditions down to the actual ship.
Anno
>>219813 I guess famous movie directors have hobbies, too.
>>219812 >he also is planning an asteroid mining business That's so cool. I hope it gets up and running so we can go into space a bit more.
Anno
He'd probably just be using remote-controlled robots for the task but if he ever wanted pilots for flying the route from asteroids to Earth I'd be down for that.
