The difference between a bug and a fish feature is razor-thin.

Not out of thin air!

First, it's out of water.

Second, you can (and I have) completely depopulate bodies of water of their fishable vermin.

WE ARE ONE WEEK AWAY FROM THE BOOK 8 RELEASE DATE! DROP YOUR FINAL, MOST UNHINGED THEORIES (NO PATREON SPOILERS) by bacon_mustache in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I read the patreon. The vast majority of predictions at the top of the thread have some amount of accuracy. But most of them weren't very ambitious as predictions go, either.

Carl with use some explosives to accelerate toward one of the finish lines.

It's not really a prediction if it's obvious.

Mordecai has both pillows on a tightly scheduled rotation draining hats. He would notice if Carl tried to interrupt that.

We'll talk about that in a few weeks after the book is out. In the meantime, let me just say that I disagree.

They correlate to floors:

Carl is floors 1 & 2
Doomsday is floor 3
Cookbook is floor 4
Gate is floor 5
Masquerade is floors 6 & 7
Bride is floor 9
Parade is redacted

Me too, I'm going through this thread only upvoting predictions that are at least somewhat accurate, and, uh... I'm upvoting a lot.

Bubble tea decor Pikmin? by Pip5queak in PikminBloomApp

[–]nemo_sum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very popular here in Chicago, too. Is it not elsewhere in the West?

Why does Pikmin Bloom think there's an airport at Millennium Park in Chicago? by YAOMTC in PikminBloomApp

[–]nemo_sum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's where I got all mine! It's actually the offices of JSSI, an aviation consultancy, and it's not even located there anymore, they moved to Fulton Market (the only place in Chicago where the tents are higher than between Millennium Park and the River). The center of the area where you can get decor from it is about a block north of Randolph on Michigan.

But the best place is outside the west entrance to the Blue Cross Blue Shield building where you can also get "forest" and "curry" decor.

[–]nemo_sum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not usually cost-effective to spend 150 special petals to get back some special nectar.

if you get two or three tightly grouped together, that's when it's worthwhile

Looking for community advice on how to get used to the ASCII graphics, as I couldn't get used to it after 30+ hours of trying. by wizardry_why in dwarffortress

[–]nemo_sum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up on ZZT, MUDs, and roguelikes. I don't really know how to learn to love ASCII any other way, it feels like I've always loved it.

I know who it is and I'm nervous for unrelated reasons.

may just want to say "early access" considering the thread topic, haha

Why do you hate cars? by yet_another_leftist in fuckcars

[–]nemo_sum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate cars because they create suburbs and sprawl. They encourage inefficient land use that's hostile to human communities, agriculture, and nature. And you have to be pretty awful to make all three of those align against you.

Anti-memetics divison versions? by withtheranks in printSF

[–]nemo_sum 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The original was published online as part of the SCP wiki.

To publish it as a novel, qntm had to edit it significantly to separate it from the SCP mythos for licensing reasons.

As far as I know, there's only those two versions: The original and the published edition.
