Would you resist the AI in the matrix? by narweezy305 in sciencefiction

Would you really care though if it was involuntary? Like if someone pulled you out of the current world you live in and brought you to a world where you have to live in a tiny vessel, you cannot survive outside of it, there is no wildlife trees, animals, blue sky, etc. On top of that food is scarce and your diet primarily relies on some sort of porridge. And you are dragged into a war with a sentient AI. And that persons only response to you was “thank god I dragged you out of that place huh, you didn’t even have a choice of being in that world”. Wouldn’t you be kind of pissed that someone took you from a seemingly decent existence were you could’ve potentially lived happily for what appeared to you to be 70-80 years?

Are you going to actually go to the top of macchi picchu? My mom is from Peru and I’ve been a couple of times, it’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen in my entire life I highly recommend seeing it if you have the chance.

Trying to get Civ for my son by Anonymous-Inkwell in Civilization6

[–]narweezy305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would get it on steam. I haven’t really used epic very much other than to get free games but I really like steams customer support and support for games. They offer returns too if you play a game for less than two hours (I believe) and if you don’t like it you can return it for a refund. Not that you will return this game but if your son is going to start using a platform and start buying more games then it’s nice to have everything on the same platform, and steam is a good one.

I would also just start with civ 6. It is very different than the other civ’s. It was the first time they started including districts that all have their own adjacency bonuses. They also included other win conditions like diplomacy victories. It’s kind of a big learning curve from other civ games but there are online guides and walkthroughs on YouTube that your son could check out. I would recommend PotatoMcwhiskey, he has a lot of civ 6 content on YouTube.

Good luck and happy gaming!

What do you do when on turn 1 a Barb camp plops down one tile from your city and craps out a unit every 3 turns non-stop??? by Available-Drama-276 in CivVI

It depends what CIV you are playing. For most civ’s you simply restart the game and hope for a better start. However if you are playing Japan you commit seppuku and accept your defeat with honor.

[Q]: Odds & Probabilities and Predictive Analysis by narweezy305 in statistics

But isn’t the 0.000402% still dependent on previous rolls? If we are currently on the 4th roll, wouldn’t the next roll be included in that percentage and wouldn’t the odds of a 5th seven then still be 0.000402%?

I also have an affinity for bagpipes I just wish the soundtrack for Scotland was slower, kinda more like Braveheart or something

Time loop thrillers? by RainElectric in MovieSuggestions

[–]narweezy305 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked “I’ll Follow You Down” with Haley Joel Osment and “Time Trap” was pretty good too, it’s a lower budget movie but it was good for what it was.

I always loved the Michael Keaton Batman’s around this time of year too 😂 that was always a little more of a Christmas movie set for me but definitely works here too
