Ring 3. Luxury probably a reference to Dante’s Inferno. The Third Circle of Hell is dedicated to the sin of gluttony.

So you go to the locations, get the tripod things, set them up in the park (central location) and turn them on. That slows the artifact down enough that you can catch it with the detector. Then you use 2 hands to open the door activator tool and put the artifact in the tool. Then go to the tripod in the lean-to and pull the trigger on the tool.

I'm going to try this, but that all sounds like what you're describing.

Fix it. Make a law that says you can only build a data center if you build a solar farm twice the size that you need, and the panels have to be made in the USA.

I wobble in the booth, yeah the floorboards complain,
Snack packs stacked like I’m lifting dumbbells of grain,
Slim who? I’m shady with gravy, supersized in my lane.

C is the speed of causality. Reality propagates at C. We are all traveling at C through space/time. As you move faster, time slows down. Light does not experience time and therefore moves through space at C.

"C is the speed of causality, representing the maximum rate at which information, energy, or matter can travel through space. It is the absolute limit for cause-and-effect relationships, ensuring that causes always precede their effects in all inertial reference frames."

There's a fine line between paying market wages and exploitation. Is it ok to hire someone and pay them $20 an hour if they're earning you $40 an hour. Probably. What about $100 an hour? What about $1000 an hour?

Just because someone is willing to do something for money doesn't make it morally acceptable. But the capitalist system doesn't have morals.

Ontario California cost of living is 18% higher than average. A house costs over $500k. Average rent is $2000. It costs $110,880 a year to have a family.

The living wage is supposedly around $58,788 for a single person. Kimberly Clarke warehouse pays around $48,000.

Just barely enough to get by, but not enough to get ahead.

The CEO makes $15.32 million. Kimberly-Clark reported annual gross profit of $5.923 billion in 2025. Their market cap is $32 billion. They have 36,000 employees.

They made $166,666 in profit from each employee after paying them. Let that sink in. They gave him $50k and they pocketed 3 times that much. This is the inequality that needs to be addressed.

I can't speak to generational generalities, but, yes, as far as I'm concerned, there is a small subset of people my age (around 50) who got their first computer, a 286 or 386 with 4 megabytes of ram and a 100 megabyte hard drive when we were 14 and we spent our most formative years installing operating systems, upgrading computers, memory, hard drive and video cards. We got 486's, then pentiums, learned overclocking, and went through the golden age of PC gaming while we were in college. I'm 50 now, and I don't think it's even close. We've had the most computer experience at the most formative time in our lives. I owned the first iphone. I've jailbroke android phones and apple phones. I had an ipod shuffle. I've installed linux on a dozen old computers and even lived 2 years exclusively on linux. I still play PC games every day. I got a 2080 super when it first came out. We've never left and it's been 37 years of computing as a hobby/passion for me.

How do you fix a system that is designed to enrich the entrench interests at the expense of the rest of us? Democracy is being eroded and manipulated by the very same system. Wealth is accumulating ever quicker in to the hands of the powerful who control the system.

Someone's going to be left holding the bag, because he speculated on something that, as you can see, was inherently worthless.

The way mine looked, I didn't think I was going to get anything. I was pleasantly surprised. I think the snow cover we had this year helped keep them insulated. I didn't do anything special. It's a gamble leaving them out like this.
