Desert wasn’t really a cyberpunk setting until BR 2049. Post-apocolyptic sure, MadMax had that stitched up in 1979, but not cyberpunk.
Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

The Kingdom of Loathing guys (Jick and Mr Skullhead) had a development approach to keep their game system balanced. They felt that players had different primary motivations/enjoyment in the game and they wanted to make sure there was something for everyone. They divided players into four groups: Hearts, Clubs, Spades, and Diamonds.
Hearts enjoyed the social aspects of the game and would use the chat system and clans extensively.
Clubs were the PvP crowd and weren’t happy unless there were meaningful opportunities to battle other players.
Spades are explorers and look to every nook and cranny of the environment, and are interested in underlying game mechanics (this is me).
Diamonds are collectors and completists. They will scour environments to ensure they got everything and do all the sides because they want all the stuff.
Sheets weekly. Towels twice a week, but I shower twice a day.
Neither sex nor drugs were ever discussed…at least not by my parents.
It may helpful to think of this in terms of human rights; some rights apply to individuals so even though there may a group of them we’d refer to them as persons e.g. displaced persons. Some rights are held collectively and we would refer to them as a people e.g. Indigenous People of the Amazon.
eta: “Those people” and “you people” are both seen as racist dogwhistles. Your sister was probably laughing because you didn’t intend or get the subtext of your phrasing.
I think the larger issue is that the blood supply is for profit in the US. Everyone is getting exploited, including the people that require the transfusion.
I donate regularly in Canada and give it away for free as does everyone else. I don’t donate plasma because it’s not especially useful with my blood type (AB+ is universal for plasma, O- for other products).
Don’t make me tap the overlay.
This is true for every regulated profession. It’s not exceptional.
да, брат! продолжай в том же духе!
молодец, товарищ! демократы будут сбиты с толку твоей умной метафорой!
I’ve done the Burgess Shale hike. I was surprised to hear how few anomolacaris specimens there are. Lots of pieces, but very few segments are attached to each other. The species is now being found in China and I understand that some of those specimens are more complete.
I went with Ryobi under the rubric of “if you use it enough to break it then buy a good one”. I have a wall of green tools because most of them are used only occasionally. My hammer drill is the one that is gonna go. And yeah. I will buy something f’in awesome. Because using an underpowered hammer drill sucked.
Be prepared for endless mockery no matter which direction you go. Best of luck sir.
By number 3 there were extended scenes. No penis or vulva.
Tell me you’ve never played a Witcher game using a whole paragraph.
Anything that presents a risk of viewing a penis.
Eastman Color for the win! I hadn’t heard that before. I thought the term was strictly descriptive because the creative teams were mostly Italian/Spanish. Filming locations were in Italy and Spain as well.
