  • Does it feel like every new ship that comes out in a category is somehow better than the others in the same category.

    I get that is the natural iteration of things, but I just hope that older ships get an update pass to bring them up to par.

  • As their power wanes, Wisconsin Republicans push conservative agenda through constitutional amendments
  • Gerrymandering is complicated. Simplest version; it involves diluting the vote of smaller groups who likely would have been able to vote in representation into the government if not for the interference.

    This is done by breaking up that voting group among groups that favor the manipulating party.

    The wiki on it does a good job of providing the details.

    You are right that anything done can be undone BUT it requires the same level of governmental control. And if you can gerrymander the heck out of the voters, you can pass almost anything.

    Note: it is not a purely 'popular' vote. That would bypass gerrymandering. Gerrymandering depends on block voting.

  • How has your life changed between backing and now
  • Game wise: started with Pathfinder package in 2016, origin315. Now I'm quite a bit further in... I like the ships that have utility vs combat ships... And there are quite a few of those.

    Personally: sold a house, moved to apartment, bought a house, moved cities twice, made 3 career changes and in a fairly decent spot now. Very different from where I was.

  • Citizen Con 2023 - Day 1 Impressions
  • I definitely want that 'realistic audio'

    Server meshing proof of concept is a huge hurdle they at least demonstrated they can do it on small scale.

    Totally on board with those who were not impressed. Expectations need to be tempered with everything CIG.

    As an engineer working with power distribution, I actually liked the little FTL like system they are going with. I have feeling highly experienced engineering players will be able to recover highly damaged systems that normally are behind repair, this making them good for salvage teams too.

  • A Lab Test That Experts Liken to a Witch Trial Is Helping Send Women to Prison for Murder
  • Relevant quote from the article for the critical info to save some the read:

    But the problem with using aeration as a proxy for proof of life, many medical experts argue, is that babies don’t have to take a breath for air to enter their lungs. Air can be introduced when the baby’s chest is compressed as it squeezes through the birth canal. If there is an attempt to resuscitate a stillborn baby, that pressure can inflate the lungs. And if a body has started to decompose, gases from that process can cause the lungs to float in water. Even the ordinary handling of a stillborn baby can allow air to enter the lungs.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I suppose it all depends on what you want and what value you place on it.

    I am doing the $120/yr unlimited, so that is $10/mo for me. Same price as some streaming service and I use proton a lot more than I do them.

    If you find no value in the other features like proton pass, drive or calender, then yeah, maybe it a singular service would be more attractive.
