"we have decided to take the game offline beginning September 6, 2024"

"sales will cease immediately and we will begin to offer a full refund for all gamers who have purchased the game"

HOW INDUSTRIAL HEMP COULD SAVE OUR WORLD

In 1941, Henry Ford built a car out of plastic made from hemp, flax, wheat, and spruce pulp. material. It ran on ethanol made from hemp and other agricultural waste. Ford's bioplastic Model T was was lighter than fiberglass and ten times stronger than steel.

Popular Mechanics, in its December 1941 issue, reported that "Ford's experimental model was a step toward the realization of his dream to grow automobiles from soil and reduce greenhouse gases."

When Ford was building his bio car, greenhouse gasses were already in the public eye and the car started a renewed public conversation on the merits of biomass versus fossil fuel.

Neither side will make housing affordable, at least not on purpose. To do that you need the price of houses to drop by around 80%. Yeah, current homeowners will get rekt, but they weren't complaining when they were getting magical "appreciation" money and getting free inflation money in the form of their mortgage. House prices will come down when mortgage rates stay high, like 10%+, for several years at least. Artificially low rates are what caused the housing price inflation in the first place.

the real infinite money glitch is to be the central banker no don't check my gold vaults you don't need to i have infinity tons in there honest

As we approach a new S-election, we have an opportunity to question the status quo and pick apart the Propaganda being fed to the masses, particularly regarding "safety testing."

Have you ever wondered what’s really happening inside your muscles during that grueling workout? It turns out you’re not just building strength – you’re activating an amazing cellular cleanup crew. #weightlifting #fitness

NEW - The CCC warns that the German left-green-liberal government wants to "effectively end anonymity" and make all citizens "identifiable at all times and in all places," including by opening doors to Palantir and other surveillance software.

everyone's a scumbag, everyone sucks

People who just want to sit around and get high all the time are scumbags who suck.

cut them out of my life

Without a second thought. They're going nowhere. You have limited time on this earth, and even more limited time while young and able. Getting high often as a young person is incredibly unwise.

How many domain names your government needs to block in order to censor an entire network?

Bluesky: 1 domain name
Nostr: 680 domain names, but blocking 10 most popular relays and hosted clients would probably be enough to kill it
Fediverse: more than 20000 domain names

The WHO has brokered a limited truce between Israel and Hamas in order to get Gazan children vaccinated. Is there something more sinister afoot?

_Self-replicating vaccines due to be rolled out next month in Japan could result in a worldwide disaster_

FTA: A replicon vaccine is a type of vaccine that uses a self-amplifying RNA as its antigenic component. Replicons are derived from viruses, such as alphaviruses.

There are 32 alphavirus species which infect various vertebrates, including humans, rodents, fish, birds and larger mammals, as well as invertebrates. Some are species-specific while others are not. Transmission between species and their vertebrate hosts, including humans, occurs mainly via mosquitoes.

The use of alphavirus-derived RNA technology in vaccines is where the danger lies. The man-made genes in the replicon vaccines, if introduced into humans, are likely to spread not only to other humans but also to other species.

In November 2023, Japan approved the use of the first self-amplifying mRNA (“saRNA”) vaccine against covid. The vaccine is called Kostaive and is also known as ARCT-154 or, in Vietnam, VBC-COV19-154. At the time of the approval, researchers were hopeful that this was only the beginning for saRNA treatments for infectious diseases and even cancers.

The difference between a covid mRNA vaccine and a covid saRNA vaccine is that with the former, a cell’s machinery produces the spike protein for as long as these instructions persist while the saRNA goes a step further. It integrates the genes needed for the replication and synthesis of the spike protein-encoding RNA, effectively establishing a biological printing press for fabricating the vaccine inside cells.

just testing out segmented walls. i can make them look prettier, they actually just look segmented because it helps me keep track of them while developing.

i currently like this approach of just removing the lower wall whenever a player is in a room where it would obstruct their view too much. they can only turn the camera about 50 degrees each way, so they'll never actually be able to see the bottom wall of a room anyway.

as much as i want to give players free control over the camera, rpg architect's camera doesn't have collision. because of that, it'll clip into walls. i don't want the player to have to deal with manually zooming in to see specific spots.

i was toying around with fixed camera angles too and i might use that for some key scenes. it's good to know it's an option but i'd also have to remove walls in some instances doing that anyway.
