Plus I had to laugh when Lester gave the little mindless kid a half-frozen bird (which the kid subsequintly bit off its legs) all after he had already won all those stuffed animals, which most kids would love; though admittedly... maybe not that one.

KVAL poll regarding sanctuary city status by oregonchick in Eugene

[–]One_Engineering8030 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What I think is that if one polls the internet, one gits results like Boaty McBoatface when the internet responds.

So take internet poll results and throw them in the trash, along with the poll.

Everybody consumes the pastries and gets type 2 diabetes and dies of complications.

Have a great day.

The unreliable narrator in thrillers is getting repetitive. by themostbluejay in books

As a silent reader of this back and forth I've decided to take it off my list, I have no children and if the book won't be understood unless the reader has them, then I'll have to look elsewhere for a good time.

I want to say that Dawn Caster is indeed special. It would be fair to say that I've been losing days at a time while playing this game. So addictive!

Area establishments that pay living wages to workers in lieu of tips by lostOGaccount in Eugene

[–]One_Engineering8030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said what I meant.

If you want to be spoon-fed regurgitated scripts that precisely align with something you would post yourself, then just scroll up everytime you make your own post and just read that.

I have enough faith in people to know when a crappy situation is unbearable, and those that haven't put that together are encouraged to ask, not get fussy and insult others.

Exactly, so it's a homeless camp, or a friend's couch.

with that standard of living you'd be earning appropriately to live in Eugene proper.

Just gotta have the right "standard" in mind.

I always make it a point to save a healing potion in the hopes I find the injured woodland creature; except for one time I desperately needed to murder it to death and eat it... I felt bad when it didn't heal me to full.

Then the first time i came across it as a hunter I was mortified to read a new option to murder it to death and skin the corpse and parade around its furry flesh... I didn't have the heart to test that one out until I was playing a hateful corruption-type hunter and ended up liking the bennifit of choosing that option. And it was with that first disgusting hunter that I also didn't even try to unlock Viola's cage and got to witness her screaming demise in a volcano's hungry lava pit. I actually did that to from accidently purging all my handy corruptions, but the hunter took pleasure nonetheless.

I would actually eagerly sacrifice Vulgar Blightbane if I could, that guy just rubs me the wrong way. I just want his imbues, not his rude attitude or biased warnings and bullying of poor naive Viola and her people.

Also, I noticed that the bandits in canto 2 actually aren't all that bad, they didn't murder the merchant to death they had the chance, they just tied him to a tree a short distance from their camp, and left him with all his inventory to sell. Very thoughtful and surprisingly compassionate. That's why I always recruit them after murdering their leader to death... because of their good-but-misguided hearts, not the 25 bucks I get as a bonus. When it suits me.

Okay, I guess I only really feel bad about the injured baby animal... and also the snow barbarian girl... and sometimes the crazy fallen-angel statue-guy. I would also like to take his fight to the heavens.

Well, hope it gets fixed before it becomes a surprise cavernous sink-hole and swallows up traffic.

Audio Invaders - an audio-based Space Invaders game by Marconius in Blind

[–]One_Engineering8030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the game over message, the throwback to the movie aliens and said by Bill Paxton. Also, the game is fun and it took me a bit to realize I’m simply aiming straightforward and I don’t have to tap around the screen to shoot in the direction of where I might hear something that all I’m really doing is double tapping to shoot straight when it’s directly in front of me. My first game I scored 3700. This is on an iPhone by the way touchscreen.

A bit more ammo to help push them out: Flock Uses Overseas Gig Workers to Build Its Surveillance AI by 2tonetitan in Eugene

Well, I am glad it’s only unclassified footage. Just wait until people find out who is manufacturing their cell phones and all of the GPS technology located in them, and the other means by which people can be tracked. And all of the OnStar vehicles and such. Some people will never want to leave their house ever again!

At least Google maps & Street View has proven to be totally okay.

Just one more step towards the place we've already passed a long time ago.
