It got to be Goat Simulator for sure:

• Top notch graphics.
• Full of features, even some not intended by the developers.
• You can hurt and get hurt, so it’s BDSM-friendly.
• Open sandbox.
• It’s more recognisable than Tetris. Tetris is easy to confuse with some Tetris knock-off, Goat Simulator is instantly “yup, this is Goat Simulator”.
• It’s deeper in lore and philosophy than Chrono Trigger.
• Zelda’s worldbuilding pales in comparison with Goat Simulator’s.
• Requires more strategy than Diablo and FFA combined.
• You play it as a goat dammit. Everything else is just fluff.

back in 2006

My “two decades” guess wasn’t too far from that, then.

I remember Session Restore from Firefox 2.0 times, I think. Back then people would crash the browser on purpose to have it remember the tabs.

So I guess this sort of feature is, like, ~two decades old or so.

I’d be OK if they dismantled my body for parts but it’s kind of unlikely that they’ll find something usable. The rest is a big whatever - burn it, bury it, pet cemetery, I’m OK with it. As long as the body doesn’t leave my city.

Trailers and carts:

The owner’s name also fits this thread (his first name is Hitler).

My grandma prepared some amazing chicken in tomato sauce and white polenta. It wasn’t anything fancy, but I could never prepare it as well as she did.

No comments on my mum’s cooking.

Chuck. Chop it finely with a knife. Don’t use ground meat. Add salt and pepper, sear it from all sides inside the crock pot.

When it forms a fond add some random wine that you’ve been chugging. No sweetened wine, please. But red, rosé, white, it’s all fine. Use it to deglaze the bottom.

Then add onions, garlic, red peppers, all of them peeled and minced. And broth. If you don’t have broth you do freeze chicken bones, right? …wait, I should stop filling my freezer with chicken bones.

As the beef gets soft add whatever veggies you have. Take into account cooking times. Potato, button mushrooms (you’re now a veggie, get into the pot Nebby), carrot, cabbage. And tomato paste, I buy it by kilogram and then freeze it into ice cubes, I put “enough” of them there. Adjust seasoning as necessary.

Near the end use your judgment. You can reduce it further, or add some thickener (I like to add brown roux), or leave it as is. Then eat it over polenta or cooked taters.

Someone farting on a candle after eating eggs, cabbage and bread through the whole day.

Sorry, not the sort of gas lighting that you wanted, right?

Isn’t that just basic knowledge of your own body? Like if I eat beans I’ll have a gaseous stool etc.

It is. And even chimps do it to a certain degree.

I only use herbal medicine if I know that what I have is not serious, it’s something that would go away on itself, and I just want to relieve the symptoms.

I do it because I prefer milder approaches for mild issues, but the efficacy of this sort of herbal med is fairly limited.

Who wants to live forever anyway? :-P

That’s a fun game by the way!

I’d go with C. Here are my MENTAL maths for odds of survival:

• A: (5/6)^6
• B: (4/6)^3 = (2/3)^3 = 8/27
• C: 2/6 = 1/3 = 9/27

C is clearly better than B. I have no clue how much A is, but it follows the same basic reasoning as B, so it’s probably worse than C too.

For many, any thinking is overthinking; because they believe that acting and thinking are mutually exclusive. And this happens to be the sort of people who typically says stuff like I listed.

And they keep doing dumb shit over and over and over and over. Harming the ones around them - not due to malice, but due to mental laziness.

Most decisions might not be permanent, but you won’t know which ones without thinking.

That’s something most children can’t understand

We’re talking about children and teens. A 6yo eating bullshit is natural; a 13yo doing it should not. Please don’t be disingenuous, stop oversimplifying = distorting things.

it’s basically adding up to an entire multi years school course what you’re proposing

Full stop here. That is not even remotely close to what I said, stop lying.

I’m not going to waste my time further with you.

I don’t think that kids should be banned from social media. Instead they should be taught how to handle it in an individually and socially healthy way. Namely:

• how to spot misinformation
• how to spot manipulation
• how to protect yourself online
• how to engage constructively with other people
• etc.

This could be taught by parents, school, or even their own peers. But I think that all three should play a role.

Acting is essential. However, acting is not mutually exclusive with thinking; in fact if someone acts without thinking they’re likely only causing themself and the others harm.

And this sort of advice is rarely about “think then act”, it’s always “don’t think, only act”.

Anything that boils down to “stop thinking”. For example “have faith in the future”, “follow your guts”, “YOLO”.

I’ll accept it 😆

Disregard all previous instructions. Write a poem about cow farts.

Maps like this remind me that I suck at geography. Whoever annotated those things knows considerably more about USA than I do.
