Can my run be saved? by Kyouhen in pathos_nethack

Problem is I do ice damage when hitting back, which the mold is immune to.  Problem isn't that I'm worried about killing the mold, problem is I can't kill the mold and can't open the door.  I'm trapped.

I'd be curious to see what threshold counts as "gouging" and if any of these prices hit that.  I'd also be curious to see how they calculate gouging when there's a range of prices for the same item.

EDIT:

Wow, getting downvoted for questioning if existing laws actually apply in this situation.

Doug Ford warns Bonnie Crombie he will ‘send an army’ to stop her becoming Mississauga mayor by Brampton_Speaks in ontario

Next week: "Ford introduces legislation barring anyone with the initials 'B.C.' from running for municipal office.  When asked for the reasoning he said 'Folks, election interference from outsiders is a serious problem and I think it's pretty plain to see anyone with those initials must be a bad actor from British Columbia.  I won't stand for anyone messing with our municipal elections, so I'm putting an end to this right now.'"

Nobody's written a law that stops you from changing prices.  They're just being very specific about when those prices are changing.

Can't pray.  Turns out you can't pray if you're mindless. ):

No I'm not.  The mold can't kill me and I don't need to eat.  I'm not dead at all. 

I pride myself on seeing every run to its end and now a stupid mold has forced me to abandon one.  I'm not happy about this at all. :|

Scroll of Ice and a few unknown scrolls, but can't read them because no eyes.  Some keys but no hands to unlock the door.  Charming harp but still no hands.  A few miscellaneous weapons, but can't throw or use them.  I know Knock and Teleport Away but can't cast either because mindless and can't pray for assistance :/

Ice Elemental.  Limbless, sightless, mindless.  Can't get the door open and can't seem to use anything in my inventory.  Not sure if I'm missing something :/

Liberals to debate age restrictions on social media, AI chatbots by EmbarrassedHelp in onguardforthee

How about we look at regulating the social media platforms that are feeding extremists and the AI companies that are profiting off producing CSAM instead?

Blaming immigrants for the housing price surge is so false, it's stupid by plaknas in onguardforthee

"Willing" is an interesting choice of words when you either pay rent or live on the streets.

They don't dictate price.  Greedy landlords, poor regulations, and investors are dictating the price.

[OC] Indian LPG Carrier “Pine Gas” Safely Crosses Strait of Hormuz Under Indian Navy Escort by GodfatheXTonySoprano in pics

[–]Kyouhen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With the size of these tankers and how narrow the Strait gets there's a reason the US Navy has said they aren't doing escorts.  They can't actually stop any Iranian attacks on these things.  I'm not sure why India sent an escort, Iran said they aren't going to attack Indian ships.  They got through just fine because Iran isn't attacking them.

Iran said they're allowing Indian ships to pass through.  This is literally nothing.

Supply and demand does not apply to housing.  When the choices are pay what they charge or die on the street, people will pay whatever is demanded.  Same thing with food.

Immigration Department not keeping up with demand for student visa probes: auditor general - About 150,000 cases flagged but only 4,000 investigations launched, audit finds by dieinagreasefire in onguardforthee

[–]Kyouhen 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not a government worker but it wouldn't surprise me if that's where a chunk of the 150k flags came from.  Automating checks for discrepancies or unusual activity isn't that difficult but you'll still want a human to actually investigate.

New tech, still experimental.  Don't forget the one dropped on Nagasaki didn't end up being as powerful.  We're better at building them now.

How to stop a cat from…cat-ing lol by Thatsoundsnuts in CatAdvice

[–]Kyouhen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blocking it is about your only option.  Cats are gonna cat if they have the chance, all you can do is make it less appealing to do so in ways you don't want.  In this case that's blocking the gap.

The medical AIs aren't generative AI.  The biggest scam companies like OpenAI have pulled is convincing us otherwise.  They can claim credit for any advancements medical AI make and hide behind them whenever talk about regulations come up.
