The expected outcome is internet collapse. The internet is a mass communication tool that allows bothersome peasants to organize and educate themselves if they are inclined to do so. Which means it must be destroyed.
The poor, disenfranchised, and uneducated are significantly easier to manipulate. So the goal of the 1% is to break society, eliminate the ability to educate, eliminate the ability to organize, and the use their near total control over mass media to assure everyone that they are better off under the thumb of the technocratic state.
I want to like this game so bad. On paper it is exactly the kind of game that I love, but trying to play it multi-player with my partner is just an experience in frustration. It seems so perfect for multi-player, but so much of the interface just seems setup for one player only.
It's a co-op base building game similar to minecraft only top-down pixel art graphics. Easy to sink hundreds of hours into, and if you get yourself a copy as well, then you can both play together
Exactly this. It can absolutely be a fulfilling relationship, but it takes significantly more work than being a pair does.
It also isn't a good fit for everyone. You have to be not only extremely confident in the existing relationship, but also secure enough in yourself to understand that your partners are going to have independent relationships with each other just like you have an independent relationship with each of them. A lot of people just struggle with that.
Personally I find it to be a very rewarding experience, but I full expect that to not be the case for most.
If it is something OP decides to engage with I would definitely recommend lots of reading on poly relationships, seeing a relationship counselor who specializes in open \ poly relationships, and visiting poly forums to talk about the potential pitfalls \rewards.
When I lived in an apartment, we did balcony heirloom tomatoes. Once you get some of the tomatoes you can't buy in the store, even a few plants are well worth it.
Checked there and searched online for any demo modes/ testing codes that would allow me to mute it. Evidently, a lot of folks online absolutely hate my microwave as well, because no one can mute it. That said, the community of microwave haters has provided me with instructions to rip out the speaker if I choose to silence the wailing banshee for good.
My microwave has an un-interuptable 6 shrill beeps, that then repeat if the door is not opened in 10 seconds. There is no mute option, and it can be heard everywhere in the house. I have seriously considered just ripping the speaker out of it. It is, without a doubt, the appliance I hate most in my house.
Some will probably exist as exhibition pieces in places like Williamsburg, but a lot of the practical skill and techniques are in danger of being lost due to lack of use. Among the skills that I would like to see preserved are things like flint knapping, blacksmithing (blade smithing is still doing fairly well), foraging, manual land navigation, and to an extent manual stone carving / banking masonry.
Much of the manual nature of these skills has been replaced by automation or handheld electronics, so they are practiced by a dwindling number of artisans.
