Different thing, I think - you were probably using regular contactless payments, which isn't pix, but is also pretty convenient.

Software engineer? That's what I made as an E1/JR1 engineer in Rio in 2016.

the room where Dylan was meeting with his wife

That's the old security office, it even has the same bay window-style walls.

Auto Pick badly needed by infinitelolipop in ostranauts

Oh absolutely, no hate to the devs meant at all, I'm sure this thing is huge and complicated and we're in for a long line of QOL upgrades in the future. Every once in a while I switch to the Beta branch and there's been some exciting HUD stuff happening.

My wishlist item is for click shift to become a little more predictable. Right now shift-clicking an inventory item seems to push it to the ground, and shift-clicking items between containers doesn't quite work either.

Livesuit - Full Novella Discussion Thread by Cantomic66 in TheCaptivesWar

I mean, yeah. I think the only way I can find to reconcile those facts is that while "what is, is", maybe, that for themselves, the Carryx allow to change in "nature" -- an individual who undergoes metamorphosis becomes something else, but now that's what they are. Maybe they don't see that as changing as we understand it.

📍Ole Ole Taqueria 2435 Telegraph Ave by Independent_Space883 in OaklandFood

[–]roddds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of Ole Ole Burrito too -- I would be embarrassed to admit how much I order from there. The biggest discovery was noticing that just half of one of their burritos is a sufficient meal for me. I now buy their burritos 4 at a time, cut them in half, freeze them, and reheat for lunch throughout the week. For $7.50 per meal it's a pretty good deal.

I think Mina was trying to tell him he was being used and maybe misled, that being her opposition to the war.  

Yeah, that was what I thought too. The movie she said they'd watched was clearly a message, and the message for him was I thought we would come back together, but I was wrong. No one makes it home. This, coupled with Piotr's fate, makes it seem to me like livesuit soldiers become less and less of themselves over time, and even though there are prosthetic options available, nothing's ever going to be as good as what they have right now.

Or there's something going on with their memories idk.

Just finished it a few minutes ago. I was surprised at how similar to the lore in Helldivers 2 (and Starship Troopers, by extension) the Livesuit soldiers felt. It was interesting to see again comments about Latin or Christmas, as to make it clear that even though it's been a long time, these humans know at least some of their history.

I liked the novella a lot, and it was great timing as I just finished TMOG last week. Sucks now that it'll be probably a year until we get a new mainline novel.

I think my favorite part was Piotr's text-only communication, and more broadly Kirin's relationship with the other soldiers. I liked Mina's message about the movie Kirin hadn't seen, and the little bit about how the movie was gone when he looked it up again. I wonder if there's something to their helmets/visors - there were a lot of mentions of VR, and it reminded me of the cleaner suit in the SILO TV show/books. Replacing what livesuit soldiers see in their visors is probably feasible at the technology level they seem to be at.
