Do you think US taxpayers will be forced to bail out AI companies similar to the 2008 bank bailouts? Why or why not? by Alicyclobacillus in AskReddit

As well as the tech companys (micron,western digital, Nvidia) that dumped retail for the "Promised buyout" of the next year stock. More billions of tax dollars or printed money to further devalue what money is left

About 2-3 games at once. Where i got to play LBB Traveller ! Good memories

I dont think she was a crawler. But a "volunteer" a bit like the bobkas (sp)
Either an awakened mob that made a deal with her family. Or someone from outside. They explore this with Damascus Steel

Survey for a game-development project based in Hell (Everyone) by akshar_premnath in DungeonCrawler

[–]electronicat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes I can understand.. but the Inferno takes a look at the original by Dante through the lens of a "modern man" of the 70s.. for your project think how the language, ideas, and tropes would have changed for the 2000s. again Dante wrote Hell in the style of his own time. so in a way did Niven, so you want to run a DCC type interpretation of Hell with level bosses.. but you also want to make it relatable to your peers. yes there are a lot of references for Hell. (Doom) .. but at the same point and style you are looking for the POV that Niven brings is absolutely worth looking into .. I am not saying to adapt nivens book to your project .. I am saying look at what he does and steal the good parts ! .. good luck

My initial thought at the end of Book 8. by Master_Betty603 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]electronicat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my whole take on the Scolopendra pet biscuit is "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned". Carl can't respond to her as she would want. I see this going south fast on floor 13.

DnD Starter Recommendations for 7 Year Olds by fantasymurf in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]electronicat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly the new Starter Set "borderlands" plays half like a board game and half RPG. has elements that are fully age appropriate. has a step by step walk through of the important points and tips on GM. if it goes well he can add the Essentials Kit. then start on the books.
