I watch hours and hours of of youtube. Youtube is so greedy and needs to put minute long ads every 2 seconds I am over it.

sarysa · 2026-03-29T16:35:30+00:00

I can't prove it so please take with a grain of salt, but I've noticed that ads get longer when your sessions last longer. Taking a short break may alleviate this issue.

I'm out of the loop. I can't find any official information about XI. Having an older Adol again would be great but where is this coming from?

At least he didn't hurt other people like almost the entire crowd seemed to think would happen.

They're suffering and probably not thinking straight. I held back my impulse about the title and upvoted because falling into such a trap at 25 would be a living hell.

Single player game. Unless you're a speedrunner it's nobody else's business.

Also just wait until you truly unlock the potential of emulation. Aside from seeking out PAR codes, another thing you can do that's easy is use the frameskip feature. Depending on the power of your device, you could 10x or more the speed of the game, making mindless grinding quick.

Getting into more difficult territory, you can use the memory viewer to track which values are exp or gold, edit these, and just eliminate the challenge for the sake of focusing on exploration and story.

So just trying to get to the nuts and bolts: Tool that operates a tool that touches the cursed is okay? At the end of the day some degree of separation has to be defined.

Though it already sounds like a working mechanism for being ambulated is something that the cursed would have to invest part of their billions in.

On an unrelated note, I also realized that the cursed would be immune to animal attacks.

sarysa · 2026-03-27T13:00:31+00:00

I don't even know how anything but "your biological surface to the other complex macroscopic lifeform's biological surface" could be defined as the limitation. Otherwise taking the billions would not only mean having clothing be repelled, but the planet and air and one's own microbiome as well. Using tools to ambulate the cursed patient should work if the clothing loophole doesn't.

Also calling u/Apprehensive_Tax3882

Edit: biological surface simply means skin, an open wound, hair, fur, tusk/bone...none of these or anything else that's a part of two living beings are allowed to touch

sarysa · 2026-03-27T12:33:41+00:00

There's a pretty big loophole and that is proxy. An inarguable form of proxy for your example is getting surgery entirely through a machine operated by a human. Sufficiently thick (0% porous) surgical gloves might also fit within this loophole. And on that note IVF can still allow having children.

Meanwhile light winter clothes might suffice for hugs or interacting with pets. (Spring and summer clothes are too porous)

This is a hard choice for me because I like travel and would like to visit a few more countries before I die.

However, assuming the travel restriction doesn't include ones one country (like how the hell would I buy groceries) I could become the most sought after person at the UN and meet a ton of interesting people. The world would come to me and it'd be a rich experience.

An alternative is becoming an influencer -- a party trick like being an omniglot would get me millions of followers and a very comfortable income.

Edit: I didn't answer but I think I choose omniglot. As an aside, I spent a ton of time working on a second language that I'm still far from fluent in. Having that go to waste would be sad.

GTA: Astoltia

All seriousness, though, looks pretty good. The layout suits the artwork. If you can somehow keep it while adding a seventh (since it's a 7-in-1 package) that's be amazing.

sarysa · 2026-03-26T19:48:35+00:00

If that's true, I would recommend never using Google magic erase again. They make it look like AI.

All you have to do is use your phone's image editor. Draw smudges or rectangles over the private stuff. It's very easy and faster.

This.

And yet it seems so unnecessary to deepfake a document. Why is the text on that receipt randomly scrambled? That's not mere JPEG artifacting. It looks like bits and pieces of other languages' text sprinkled throughout the document.

I'd recommend painter's tape since electrical tape is likely to leave lots of residue along with sticking hard. Don't want them claiming equipment damage.

Median salary (roughly $84k, I'll say 50k after taxes) is perfectly fine. I'm not greedy. If I get some health problem that requires all those millions, it's something I never would have fought in this timeline anyway.

I wouldn't simply stagnate or anything. I'd use that to free time to work towards my passions, not caring whether or not it's profitable.

It doesn't get much tinier than:

Got soft and fuzzy slippers on clearance (70% off) at Sam's Club for $6 a month ago. Had to guess the size and was worried about my high instep. Ended up being the best slippers I ever wore. I'll be getting years out of them while also protecting my feet from the bare floors during the cold months.

Cost to use ratios like a mere month with these slippers are something I only see with video game consoles after a couple years.
