That is true. But we now have consumer drones that are very easily weaponized. The guards don't need to be human, but neither do the attackers.

And there's a limit to how good human/nonhuman security can be.

Gonna stray a bit from the other games mentioned here for the sake of adding something unique.

It's not your traditional nazis per say, but the half life series fits quite nicely with this urge. The combine are genocidal, totalitarian, they use shit loads of propaganda, etc. They don't have the looks of it, but they're clearly the nazi type.

Surely this will make groceries more affordable.

It doesn't need to be sudden. It's a fucking problem.

Do you have an actual argument, or are you just giving up? Because that in no way rebuts anything I said.

The native americans had lots of contracts and agreements with the U.S. government. It didn't mean shit, and the government was still tyrannical.

A contract is meaningless when corporations can:

  • bulldoze any citizen they like with legal teams
  • force people to have go through arbitration
  • delay and deny claims to demoralize claimants even if they have a valid claim
  • use AIs that deny cases for the sake of it

They wield what is essentially unchecked and arbitrary power to the detriment of the people. It is cruel. It is oppressive. It fits the definition of tyranny easily.

Two weeks of work at locally owned company is not in the same vein.

A local CEO is still a CEO. A new employee doesn't rule out a copycat motivation.

This guy had mental health issues.

The same can be said of the copycats of Columbine. People who do these sorts of things can always and easily be said to have mental health issues. That still doesn't rule out copycat motivations, as that's not mutually exclusive.

 

There is no evidence this is an official donation fund

 

So it turns out all of the rails in my old blueprint book are now labeled as legacy rails. They are semi compatible with the new rail system, but not completely. To the credit of the devs, they work together so seamlessly that I didn't notice until I hit the 50 hour mark for my current save.

But that's the issue, at least for me. About half of my rail network is legacy rails, the rest the new stuff. And worse, the grid doesn't perfectly align between them, so creating new blueprints that align with the old rails doesn't really work.

From what I can tell, it doesn't really effect anything. But if any of you are about to start a new save and use an old blueprint book, it's probably worth updating it all.

 
 

I don't know if anybody else has noticed, but this area has been hit particularly hard by creepers. If you come across this chest, please donate some dirt/sand to fill these holes in!
