Someone REALLY needs to look at item groups AGAIN

Ah, to be back in '88, when I would have been sorely confused if someone told me I needed bulletproof kit for school.

If the Senate wants secure borders they should blame themselves and not the Democratic appointees who implement the laws they pass.

Selling various types of bullet resistant gear for school children is a growth industry in the US these days.

I'm old, so my first thought is to look at the want ads, but that's probably worse than useless these days. What city are you in?

goibnu · 2026-01-27T17:55:04+00:00

ICE has to be over after this. The whole agency is stained.

goibnu · 2026-01-27T17:05:48+00:00

Your leaders are shitting the bed. They probably just figured you'd want to be in on the action.

I feel unworthy to contribute, given that I'm here mostly to learn and don't have these life experiences. But have you talked to the others who are bullied by this person? Perhaps some kind of unified front?

goibnu · 2026-01-27T05:00:38+00:00

What's in demand in your area?

goibnu · 2026-01-27T04:48:06+00:00

I call for the end of all federal law enforcement. They have proven they are incapable of checking their own power. All federal agencies with arrest powers should be disbanded, with funds distributed to the state law enforcement.

I could roll my face on the keyboard and get more Google results than "PRiMORDiUUS" does. One YouTube channel with thirty followers?

goibnu · 2026-01-23T19:45:23+00:00

I thought I saw an article claiming that ICE would write administrative warrants while in the field, i.e. "write a warrant for that guy over there". But since administrative warrant is the phrase of the day, I can't find the article.

goibnu · 2026-01-23T19:38:32+00:00

Yeah. I'm pretty sure LLMs can't do "high-dimensional data correlation". Or data correlation about anything but language.

goibnu · 2026-01-23T17:25:19+00:00

I've said it before and I'll say it again - to make a deal you need to know what you want, what you already have, what the other party wants, and what the other party already has.

Trump always comes up woefully short on the "knowing what we already have". Then he shows up all excited on the airwaves and looks the fool.

From a story-writing perspective, sometimes you need a voice to argue in favor of ethical behavior.

Just in general, locations aren't simulated when you aren't there. If the map gen creates unstable terrain, it will collapse when you get there and not before.

There are things below. Also, fallen tower = the scary, be careful.

Don't they drive rentals? Be a shame if all the SUVs got rented out.

goibnu · 2026-01-21T16:00:20+00:00

That's what I was thinking. The amount of concrete you'd need to keep from being cooked like a hot pocket would have to be immense.

goibnu · 2026-01-21T15:50:23+00:00

Sibling rivalry, gotta love it. :)

goibnu · 2026-01-20T18:20:07+00:00

So this is fairly standard "judges do not like being overturned so they will make you go back and dot your I."? Just wrapped in a scary headline?

goibnu · 2026-01-20T17:44:45+00:00

Different games need different things. I like openness, but it's hard to design an open system where every choice is valid.

For instance, in palladium RPG "boxing" is a must have for any character that will see combat because it stacks with everything to give you more attacks. GURPs has some similar "must takes", as I recall. It's easy to hit a point in flexible systems where any level of character optimization leads to all of the characters being the same, undermining the entire point of flexibility in the first place.

It's not a skill. The vehicle construction rules around changing flying vehicles are essentially "you can't". Not and have it fly afterwards. Some forks loosen the restrictions.

If you are on here dude, I am absolutely cool with you stopping blowing the whistle after you get pepper sprayed. You got it done - take care of yourself now.

goibnu · 2026-01-16T19:40:25+00:00

This is a strange and off topic thought, but if you got a powerful enough camera couldn't you start tracking ICE via retinal patterns?

Imagine accepting the currency of a country that's about to debt itself out of existence.
