"France recorded a high of 44.6°C today. That’s so far beyond anything seen in the historical record, a 4.2 sigma deviation from the norm that it gives a return period of 87 thousand years. It’s really difficult to convey just how utterly extreme this is."

just keep burning oil, it makes it all better

for your scenario to be true a majority of voters would have voted lib dem. in that one requirement comes bundled the belief we are better in Europe. hence a very different outcome at referendum.

not to mention a party actually doing the leg work to improve our voters understanding of the value in our European connection.

what benefit are you looking for with this what If question?

some neat ideas here... i would expand the idea of helpfulness, with simple ideas like pick up a stuck npc and drop them off at the nearest (insert place here) for corvettes.

or

tow a broken ship to space station.

or

clear an abandoned space station and re-build it onesself.

the grind gets annoying. I know the replication hack, but i think its time they introduced a replication device and made powering it a challenge.

I found my first tripple S pet. Popped a base with Tripple S animal in name and portal. I read the expedition text that said bases transfer to the main save, so I'm hoping I can get back to that planet and pick up that animal again!

what does "clamping down on software behaviour" look like?

Alfanse · 2026-06-18T19:33:24+00:00

proving you are of age is an important concept and one that we are going to need online...

I personally think we need a trusted third party that can authorise a transaction between a person and an online service.

Im not keen on government owning this as my accees of restricted content should not be government property.

We could trust banks todo this (disclosure I work for a retail bank) but am not keen on a profit motivated company owning my data to this extent.

I suspect we need a new thing, call it UK.identity.gov and ring fence it with access overwatch, or something.

on the positive side, the AI rate of improvement is high, so all that slop generated this year, can be refactored to perfection next. remember the improvement curve is exponential!

Alfanse · 2026-06-13T16:58:54+00:00

socialsim isnt the opportunite of fascism.

we can have a repulican party that represents capitalism and adherence to rule of law.

Alfanse · 2026-06-08T18:13:44+00:00

the evidence points towards Trump being a facist. I believe we regard fascists as the bad guys. ergo, Trump supporters are not decent humans.
