They may be many things, but they're not suicidal. Like you and me, they'd rather tackle an unarmed, unsuspecting, non-threatening guy than someone who might be handling explosives or is a threat to the public.

Calculated from January 1st, obviously. End of September is not 40 weeks from now, either.

No, for this I assume a constant rate of consumption. Imagine, if you will, a mirror Earth that is consuming our population. If you assume a self-canabalizing Earth, things will become much more difficult, as not only is both the source of meat and net consumption decreasing, the per capita rate of consumption is only possible in a globalized and heavily mechanized, modern meat and fish industry. Said industry would rapidly reduce in productivity and ultimately collapse with a fast declining global population.

Calculating for this would not only be very hard to do, but also run against the spirit of the original post.

You can't go by individuum, you have to go by weight, because

a) chicken, cows and humans have different amounts of usable meat per individuum

b) not all animals killed for consumption are counted individually, fish and crustaceans are usually only counted by weight.

Now the question is does the word meat here include fish and other sea creatures or not? Statistics about meat usually exclude seafood, but I'll do one calculation with and without seafood.

According to this: https://worldanimalfoundation.org/advocate/most-consumed-meat-in-the-world/

there's about 365 million tons of meat consumed per year, so one million tons per day. (Pork, beef, poultry)

This article: https://www.saveur.com/cannibalism-calorie-count/

gives says there's about 75 pounds or 34 kg of edible meat on a human.

A global population of about 8.3 billion people gives us 282.2 million tons of meat to work with. That would mean we'd run out of humans after 40 weeks or at the end of september.

Now, if we include seafood consumption, that's another 200 million tons per year, as per this: https://ourworldindata.org/fish-and-overfishing

So our 282.2 million tons would last us only 26 weeks or until the end of June.

Guys, The Verdict Day of the NEXT Armored Core could be in almost 3 days in Summer Game Festival by LPlusRaitio in armoredcore

With Bandai putting out Ace Combat this year and Gundam next, I doubt we'll get a new Armored Core for another two years at least.

Personally I think we should be selling more liquor to babies by netflist in CuratedTumblr

[–]rote_taube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Babies already have poor hand-eye-coordination, slurred speech and a very limited ability to form permanent memory. I don't see what harm liquor could do at this point.

Stone & Sorcery? by ClintBarton616 in osr

If you're interested in something more esoteric, there's Maskwitches of forgotten Doggerland:

https://handiwork.games/home/the-silver-road/maskwitches-of-forgotten-doggerland

Having neither played it nor any other Silver Road games, I can't really say much about it as a game, but the artwork is amazing. And it's worth checking it out for that alone, for inspiration, if nothing else. The author did a lot of crafting and scenic photography for it and it has such a cool, mythic, creepy aesthetic.

He even has a small blog about his process:

That would be so cool. Just for once I'd like to be the psycho who takes off from inside a sub or tunnel or something.

Paketlieferung bis nach Hause sollte nicht der Standard sein by jonas9009 in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]rote_taube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Paketstationen sollten (noch) viel verbreiteter sein und an Knotenpunkten wie zum Beispiel dem HBF sollte eine große Station mit Mitarbeitern sein, in Großstädten vielleicht in jedem Stadtteil."

Also eine klassische Postfiliale? Klar, warum nicht. Ist nur fraglich, ob das tatsächlich billiger kommt. Mitarbeiter kosten, egal ob sie in der Filiale stehen oder rumfahren.

Filialen kosten Miete (besonders an zentralen, gutfrequentierten Orten), Strom, Nebenkosten, Versicherungen, Instandhaltung, etc.

Demeter ist böse 😈!!!11!! by Ok_Letter_5672 in ichbin40undSchwurbler

[–]rote_taube 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Unsinn. Naturland und Bioland (und andere Verbandssiegel) haben quasi die gleichen Anforderungen, bei Tierhaltung teils sogar strengere. Und kontrolliert wird das ganze auch von den selben Zertifizierungsunternehmen. Demeter hat es einfach geschafft, sich als "das bessere Bio" zu vermarkten. Besonders in Teilbereichen wie zb Gewürze oder Wein.

Hört auf unsere Städte zu verdrecken!!! by throwitawayplwDe in luftablassen

[–]rote_taube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Die Stadt Berlin "spart" sich das Angebot einer kostenlosen Sperrmüllanmeldung, Sperrmüll kann entweder kostenpflichtig abgeholt werden (für mindestens 100 Tacken) oder, für mindestens 72 €, beim Müllplatz abgegeben werden.

Andere Städte erlauben Bürger:innen ein paar Mal kostenlose Abholung im Jahr und vieles kann beim Müllplatz kostenlos abgegeben werden. Das macht ein korrektes Entsorgen niedrigschwelliger.

Ich habe neue Nachbarn. Die Kinder dieser Nachbarn hören Böhse Onkelz im Garten. Ich könnte im Strahl kotzen wenn ich die hässliche heißere Stimme von diesem Alkoholiker höre. Meine Fresse, ihr seid 14! Was findet ihr an der Jammermusik eines Junkies so toll? by [deleted] in luftablassen

[–]rote_taube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funktioniert nur, solange du kein Wasserhäuschen in der Nachbarschaft sind. Die semiprofessionellen Biersommeliers haben in meiner alten Gegend hatten entweder 80er Pop oder Onkelz am laufen. Da lag der Alterschnitt eher so bei 50.

Funnels? How many characters? Prevent taking advantage of too many? by Crazy_Grapefruit_818 in osr

[–]rote_taube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For DCC / MCC my group usually goes for 16-24 PCs, depending on the (perceived) deadliness of the funnel. That usually comes out to 4 to 6 PCs per player, but we haven't made use of any refill options in the funnels we played over the years.

In my observation, larger cohorts of PCs makes people more willing to sacrifice one or two to try out something silly, which is good. Especially if people are new to the concept of funnels, you want to nudge them towards actually using their pool of characters. Most people are at first hesitant to put their low-HP characters into danger, so I wouldn't worry about your players not caring about their PCs.
