    in that game Recettear does anything carry over to future games / unlock? Like in the Kairosoft games I mean.
    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    I believe inventory and store improvements carry over.
    There's no living with a killing. There's no goin' back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand... a brand sticks. There's no goin' back. Now you run on home to your mother and tell her... tell her everything's alright. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.

    Yes. If you fail at capitalism, your level and inventory carry over. If you beat the game, the adventurer with the highest relations with you gives you a card that let's you use them from the beginning.

    Well, initially yes a towel, but then it just hangs to dry.

    I used a towel getting out of the shower, but my hair is still all "drip, drip, drip mother fucker"

    This what I do

    (no I am not a lady but my hair is exceptional)

    gentle towel dry after the shower, then give it 10 minutes or so to air dry before another gentle toweling (lets water do its thing with gravity and surface tension, letting you get a bit more out) then tie it back while still damp

    if you aren't tying it back this could be problematic

    Sweet.

    Played my first game of Raiders & Relics V0.4.0 and i won, but it was close.

    I got a lot of good data on how to improve the game! :D

    Have I mentioned that the mendacity of spherical objects is not in question?
  • syndalissyndalis Aballah Can Tah Advancing the Human ConditionRegistered User regular
    So my flight:

    1: 3.5 hour delay before boarding.
    2: there was "deferred" equipment on my plane, which is a fancy way of saying "we need repairs but fuck it, there are redundant systems" - also, the cabin smelled of gas the whole flight.
    3: as we took off, I heard a very distinct "pop pop" sound from the left side of the plane, and there was a weird lurch. Otherwise everything was fine. I later found out two birds were sucked into the engine and we luckily didn't go into the water like that other flight a few years ago.
    4: we hit turbulence so rocky that my laptop levitated off of the tray, the guy in the bathroom hit his head hard against the ceiling and knocked himself out, and the dude across the aisle from me puked over himself and his girlfriend.

    Fuck. Planes.

    I'm playing Actraiser. This game is the best. Actraiser 2 eliminated the city-builder parts, which was stupid. It needed to EXPAND the city builder parts and link it back to the action parts in more ways. Are there any more modern takes on this idea? Like what's the deal with Black and White?

    That was a fully-loaded cargo plane with its very heavy cargo not secured properly. It couldn't happen on a passenger jet. Not like that anyway. And it's incredibly unlikely to happen at all. You should be shitting your pants when you cross a street instead. You're way more likely to be murdered by a mode of transportation then.

    @Tamin shit, sorry, I missed this, but honestly I don't think there are anymore. Maybe way out in the boonies, like Independence or something, but pretty much all the places I know of got swallowed by Gamestop.

    I can do something about that to mitigate my risks. I'm sure there are similar civilian maintainenve fumbles that can lead to a dozen seconds of pants shitting terror before I go

    What you both seem to agree about is that people don't shit their pants often enough.

    i tend to have that louis ck view of flying

    like parts of it are annoying but they way we used to travel it took months to get there

    you get to where you going and people have died on the way

    new people have been born while you were traveling
