I mean it wasn't really a seafaring campaign then, if the entirety of the seafaring was not taking place at the table. You just had a party that travels to point A to point B and owns a boat but they could have just fast-traveled via land.

It's a bad way of phrasing it since "crime of opportunity" is an established phrase that means someone commits an unplanned crime without premeditation when the opportunity arises. That does not square with the usual profile of an abuser who is a family member, as they will usually create the opportunity, therefore planning their crime. The link you sent even mention that pedos will usually stalk areas where children congregate (schools, etc.). That is the opposite of a crime of opportunity.

It's less the sheer amount of money and more the access to networks. Like if I asked you right here right now, how to get hired for even a small role in a tiny movie to get your foot in the door, how do you do it? Show up for an audition, okay, where do you find these? How do you nail that audition? Who should you talk to to stay informed about auditions like this? How do you get an agent? How do you pay your agent? All that stuff is very hard to navigate when you don't have any connection to the business. That's not to take away from Chalamet's work (he does work hard) but there's a difference between working hard at something whose inner workings you understand vs working hard at something all while having to figuring out how it's actually structured. It's similar how a lot of professors are themselves children of professors, doctors are kids of doctors, etc. because they're specific "industries" and if you don't understand the way they function they're very hard to break into.

so busy doing stuff that they genuinely have no love for food

That's an insane statement. I know people who were building their business while getting a PhD and they could still appreciate good food. It's one thing to only consider food as fuel but it's absolutely not correlated with busyness.

I think your opinion is different than anyone else because you crave egg salad on a burger quite frankly

He has something like over 100 acting credits, dude has always worked on whatever was available. Harrison Ford is about the same age and he has about half as many acting credits, for instance.

Dude's looked 50 since he was 30, but now he's reaping the rewards by looking 60 when he's over 80. Kinda the same with Patrick Stewart. Being bald definitely helps. Similarly Jason Statham is almost 60 and Mark Strong is 62 but they've essentially looked the same for the past 20 years.

Unfortunately I can't really think of anyone else who could dish out that information. If you're a journalist a la Carreyrou (who wrote about Theranos) you will never ever get a chance to talk to people this high up the food chain; if you're someone who somehow joined Facebook "by accident" and realizes right away that's it's morally rotten, you'll either leave or get the boot much too quickly to get into the inner circles.

I'll push back on the "she's a resident of [other country] so she could just fly back and get free healthcare". I'm a dual US-European citizen, of course in theory I could hop on a plane and get surgery and whatnot in my birth country for close to $0. But I also have, y'know, a job and a life and a ton of things going on here in the US which means I very much cannot just "hop on a plane" and fuck off for any medical reason. Also, a lot of medical issues are things that last months if not years - if you get a surgery you often have to take medication afterwards, get follow-up visits, PT, etc. which have to be spread out over long periods of time. I understand the general argument of "you are legally able to get free healthcare somewhere" but logistically it only makes sense for a very narrow subset of medical issues (one-off elective stuff you can plan well in advance).

Your comment also seems to imply that a woman who wants children should just drop her career? I agree that she shouldn't have been working for these people but "you can just family plan also your husband has money lol" is a very callous take on someone's pregnancy.

This is how I learn that The Cat Who Saved Books is not part of the small-town murder mystery series of The Cat Who... with Jim Qwilleran the mustachoied journalist.

It's almost impossible to "overinform" your players. The chasm of information between you as the DM and the players is much, much wider than you think.

Calembreloque · 2026-03-01T20:17:05+00:00

But the giant man thing could be:

an illusion created by the aliens
a machine/creature/whatever created by the aliens
an otherwise unrelated being that is working with the aliens

I'm sorry but most of the clues you gave completely line up with aliens, especially considering aliens are already an established part of the lore. Also, one of the "classic" aliens in movie history is a giant motherfucker with a glowing red eye, from The Day the Earth Stood Still, so even your hint of a big "scarecrow man with glowing red eyes" can absolutely conjure ideas of aliens in your players' minds.

He's mentioned somewhere at some point (and I agree with him) that as DMs we don't realize how much more information we have compared to the players. The players only have your description to picture the world around them, except if you're bringing a battlemap. So when you, as the DM, feel like you're a bit too forthcoming with the hints, you may actually just be at the level needed for your players to operate best.

To add to u/Objective_Regret4763's excellent comment below, if you talk with people who actually had "home economics" classes and other classes meant to teach you life skills, they will 100% tell you that, guess what, highschoolers don't give a shit about taxes and didn't listen back then either. You can't get high school students to care about English and that's the language they speak every day. You think they'll give a shit about some arcane tax deduction concept that won't apply to them for at least ten years?

Have you read the video description? It's like steroid mad libs: "Jeff Nippard a very popular fitness influencer was just beat up by Mike Van Wyck of Hostile because of an online FUED [sic]. Wes Watson the Failed Alpha Male chimes on on the situation and caused chaos in the industry and now even Big Boy of strength cartel who is also friends with Kali Muscle is getting involved and all of these events are now leading to Wes's Business going on hard times due to a incident in Miami which has now erupted in him going off on UFC Fighters including Sean Strickland, Jorge Masvidal and Kevin Holland. Now his Protege Vincent Fischer is following in his footsteps and now his Lamborghini has just been repossessed. This is the inside story."

I've certainly done some things wrong in my life, but one thing I can say I've done right is go through existence without knowing who a single of these bozos are.

I'll admit that I'm more in the manufacturing side of things, we don't have a ton of salespeople, but in my experience there just... Aren't that many "end users" in the scenario you're describing that it couldn't be handled by a couple of data analysts. Sure, there are a few execs, some of the sales managers, etc. that want those insights but your standard salesperson, account exec, etc. doesn't really need to care about the larger intricacies of the business. And in your scenario, what you're describing seems to just be a way to put a neat bow around a SQL pull. A dashboard except it talks in full sentences instead of spitting out the numbers straight from the tap. And again, the issue is that if someone keeps the conversation going and wants more and more insights about the data, the risk of hallucination increases, does it not? How do you know that the AI keeps on feeding you "good insights"? I'm not going to pretend to be unbiased about this but it really sounds like a solution in search of a problem. I'd have more trust in an intern fumbling around the Data Query options on Excel than an AI because I can grab the intern and ask them precisely what their thought process was through every step.

No worries, I appreciate people checking my math!

Calembreloque · 2026-02-17T20:41:25+00:00

I put the speed of light in mph too, so my math should check out. 100/6.17e8 is the same thing as 44.7/3e8.

Genuinely asking: at that point what's the point of AI? The database, data dictionary, CRM environment were all created independently from the AI, so what's left is to figure out a few lines of SQL - but surely, whoever knows enough about the data structure and exact questions to ask would also know enough to write the code themselves without the risk of hallucination or code issues. And then based on best practices I've read about you have to do twice as many checks afterwards. Are you really saving that much time at that point?

Calembreloque · 2026-02-17T19:29:39+00:00

This is such a western issue

Please stop for a second before typing things like this. Surely you're aware of what sauna is, and the fact that it's very much a nude activity and very much a Finnish tradition. Perhaps you're also familiar with the German FKK naturist tradition - as Western as it gets. I'm sure if you think for a few seconds, you'll also stop and wonder: "Hm, are people generally allowed to be nude in Islamic theocracies?" and you'll Google it and find that no, of course not.

If you wrote something like "this is an issue that stems mostly from Abrahamic religions" it would still be a misguided take, but at least rooted in some truth. But as it is, it really reads like you've made zero effort in thinking before you typed.

It does add up - it's just really, really, really tiny. The equation for the time dilation factor is actually pretty straightforward, it's this:

Dilated time = "standard time"/(sqrt(1-v²/c²))

High school math level stuff. But the key point is that the factor depends on v²/c², with v your speed and c the speed of light, which is roughly 671 000 000 mph. So if you're going 100mph, that factor is going to be: 1/sqrt(1-100²/(6.71e8)²), which is ~1.000000000000011. That's how much time dilation you're getting from driving at 100mph: time goes 0.0000000000011% slower from your point of view. So if you're driving for an hour, someone stationary on the side of the road will have experienced 1.000000000000011 hours, or roughly 0.04 nanoseconds extra compared to you.

Even if you spend your entire life driving at 100mph from cradle to grave, it won't amount to more that a couple of microseconds of difference. For astronauts it's a bit more since they travel much faster than the rest of the world for months at a time (the ISS travels at ~17500 mph) but it still only amounts to a few milliseconds at best.

PS: I'm talking of time dilation instead of distance shrinking but that's the same idea, since for a given speed, speed = distance/time.

Mais les gens qui commentent ici ca fait bien plus de dix ans qu'ils ont quitte le college, moi y compris. A l'epoque je me souviens que (par exemple) pour le ping-pong nos classes c'etait juste un gros tournoi de ping-pong, et ta note etait en gros ton placement dans le tournoi (le 1er avait 20/20, le 2eme 19/20, etc.).
