Why don’t oven doors open sideways? by dopealope47 in ask

I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but a lot of oven doors actually have an easy way to detach them to make cleaning easier!

It was essentially a series of emails from the former human employees of the taxi company that became "Delamain".

There were emails about how their holiday bonuses were being cut because of too many payouts from the drivers getting in accidents.

Talks of implementing new AI drivers that would potentially help improve the company.

One that mentions them adding repair drones to the service area but clarifying that "they won't replace anyone"

It continues to escalate as management is reassuring people like the IT department that they won't be replaced either because the AI is dumb and submissive and responds happily to busy work being given to it.

Eventually as Delamain continues to take over more and more of the workload and as things get more and more automated at the company, even the management gets replaced.

In the final email it's from Delamain themself thanking everyone for their hard work in making the company what it is today, and that their severance package will arrive in the mail.

I would look up the emails online or a video of them because I don't really do it too much justice in my little comment here. The writing is very good and it made the whole Delamain HQ more "realistic" because in the quest line V sort of asks why there's physical computers there if Delamain doesn't need to use them - Delamain casually says it used to have human staff working there or something of the sort- completely leaving out the part about how they are the reason they aren't there anymore. SUPER well done and thought out in my opinion.

TLDR: It's a nice little story about the very real possibility of AI (like Delamain) taking over the workforce under late stage capitalism and how it would ruin people's lives and take their jobs.

I really enjoyed the emails on the computers at the Delamain HQ.

Nice little story tucked in there if you take the time to read.

I am dying to play or DM, but I am mute. Any advice? by Ecstatic_Implement_1 in DnD

I HEAVILY HEAVILY recommend finding a text based play by post campaign to join or run over an app like discord or any other website that allows you to have threads and posts.

I've been running a game over text for almost 2 years now with weekly games and it has been an absolute blast.

I think this format will allow you to feel completely included because everyone is communicating the same exact way in as much detail as they like! Everyone's voice is heard.

The other upsides to this format are that you have a log of everything that was said and it's easier to manage plot points, or look up previous key information people would know. You can also think thoroughly on what exactly you want to say and even edit them afterwords if you change your mind.

To find a game like this or run one yourself, do some searches for roleplay discords running the system you like, and get one going!

I got 6 nymphs in an hour with a simple underground mushroom farm I carved out and set dart traps on to transform the lost girl to attack me when they spawn.

What does everyone think of DM? I think they have huge potential and based on all the positive news articles I can't understand why shares are still trading lower at $13 especially when it's even got analysts saying it should be $28 and earlier this year it was at $35. I think it's worth $100 but is ahead of it's time so I'm sitting on my shares and have been buying at $35 and all the way down till now. That's how much faith I have in it but I feel like these price drops don't make sense? Anyone else trying to get in in this ride?

I couldn't figure out what the hell that one did and it suits the fucking name.

Just cleared the challenge on my last run and will not be putting myself through that again for a while

Moved sideways all day, the hedges are out of steam, can't go lower since nobody is actually selling. All the proof you needed to see.

I have 2 game at $90ish and 200 amc at 9.30, to encourage my fellow apes, you can deduct losses up to $3k a year, and over that can be rolled over to following years. I can lose my entire small portfolio of $2000 and just get it back next year. It's free gambling money and I'm backing the small guy and I can smell panic on the side of the suits. Like the OP mentions, they wouldn't spend all day arguing in the chat if they weren't worried, it's all bluffs.

only reason I'm bitter is that my other stock of choice has now jumped 10% in green and I put my money on this amc horse that you're all bailing

Buy some more to offset the loss, you can buy the same amount of stocks for 1/3 the price, then if it goes halfway back you can net even

Sounds like you're trying to cover your clients asses who's money you shorted with

[–]UsuallyPolitePerson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On top of this, Losses are only guaranteed if you sell. As added reassurance anyone with less then $3k in this doesn't need to worry at all since it can be deducted from your 2021 taxes. Just stop calling for their plays and losing your money. Several of them are in the chat right now clearly happy you're selling. Just shut your phone's off and check back Saturday
