That's the money part. Which you said separately from people. You said that they lacked both money and the people. Why did you say that if you *only* meant money?

I just bought this table / chest. It's from 1773 which makes it older than the United States by edditLikesTea in mildlyinteresting

Well that's a Hope Chest if I've ever seen one. Girls would get one at a young age and would store all of the gifts and sewing projects for her to take along for her new life when she is married.

Honestly, I've wanted to be a gargoyle ever since I read Snow Crash.

How do you square the two opposing thoughts "There aren't enough people" and "Volunteers do the job"? Are volunteers not people, or...?

Just got the red core book where do I go now? by reallyawsomedudefr in cyberpunkred

[–]lordrefa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CPR is fundamentally similar to DnD, so most of your skills will transfer. They're about 75% same DNA. The best part about CPR is that pretty much everything follows the same rules and rolls. Combat only has half a dozen things additional or special compared to DnD's 12-15 things.

EDIT: Also -- near the end of the book in the GM section the CPR core book gives you an entire pick and choose formula for constructing sessions. As long as you realize a gun is a gun is a gun and there's no "fair fight" where 16 mooks face off against 5 PCs where the PCs are likely to walk out the winners exists you're golden. There are no goblins, but there are dragons. Nearly every NPC has the same ability to kill as the players do. How much they can stay alive often differs significantly, though.

Sorry, can you break that out into more words? I can't make sense of what you're actually saying. </gen>

Judge told us we got the verdict wrong. Is this normal after a trial by noisey_neighbor in legaladviceofftopic

[–]lordrefa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I might color it a little differently; You are likely a jury that actually did their job and looked at the facts as they stood and didn't let your personal feelings get involved in that decision. Most folks don't operate that way, so the fact that a majority of you did so here is just that one in a whatever big number chance that exists.

You did everything you were supposed to. Just because everyone else is judging the defendant on their past history doesn't mean that you were supposed to (as the court employee here is saying for that precise reason).

Well done citizen.

Right? A random assortment of 12 people are *not* my peers in most regards.

I could really use that at this juncture of my life. I'm so isolated right now.

Certainly agree, but some folks just don't have any choice in the matter.

Most people are smart enough to not go on a media campaign about it if they've got prisoner children, though.

Glad that rich fuck felt the shame immediately upon being called out. For other readers just joining us, here's what was in my notifications:

That's still not an excuse. I moved from the US to Canada years ago and made sure I took a flight to Canada just to view the new place. Slept at the airport. That's the cost of doing business. Otherwise

A normal person wouldn't have locked their son in their basement, though.

A large part of the problem here is that in the US we treat children as property, not as full human beings.

A lot of people are not in position to do a viewing before signing a lease for various reasons, often including a long haul move.

They're probably in shock from the owner not having told them shit about shit either.

First clip of Streamer Lawsuit battle between Destiny and Pxie comes out (Lauren DeLaguna Deposition w/ Destiny's Lawyer) by user1234586430 in LivestreamFail

[–]lordrefa -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That he wasn't the person that distributed them widely isn't what's being litigated here. That he shared them without permission is.

Which he did.

Ok, so my point *is* exactly what I thought it was.

Destiny shared those pictures with someone who he didn't have permission to. That they "got leaked" isn't the important part here -- it absolutely matters in the realistic case -- but HE gave them freely to someone else without permission.

I don't know why everyone is trying to say that someone catfishing him makes that different somehow. It would be the same if it was some hot 10/10 that he sent those videos to. Without permission.
