I’ve never understood why people have such a hard time with the trolley problem. Obviously, if you pre-emptively move that lone guy over to the rail with the five, you can hit all six at once to maximize your score. Just requires a bit of setup.

It’s amazing how something so innocuous can provoke such a viscerally disgusted reaction in me.
Technology was a mistake. It’s time to return to the wilderness.
The 5 is a little taller than the 2, but it’s clear and easy to read so I’ll give you a 9.5/10, which should be added to your UNO score sheet under the “Draw Evaluation” section.
As I’m sure you know based on the official UNO rulebook, your Draw Evaluation scores will be averaged at the end of the game and then Average Draw Evaluation (or ADE) will be added to your other overall metrics such as ACH (“Average Cards in Hand”) and SAC (“Summed Attack Cards”, generally defined as attack cards you have played on others minus attack cards played on you, but some house rules assign different point values to different attack cards).
The metrics you choose to play with in any given game is of course something to be discussed with all players beforehand, but competitive UNO will of course utilize all standard metrics.
Did you know: the “Card Color Multiplier” metric isn’t a standard metric? It’s basically the Free Parking of UNO - very popular but not officially recognized.
Wow damn I only wish I had those urban planning skills. My cities all turn into sprawling traffic-congested nightmares.
Let him play in the legacy code. You can just hose him off later before letting him back into the office so he doesn’t track it everywhere.
Oh, thank you, I’ll see whether I can get an appointment scheduled.
I woke up shortly after turning 31 and my shoulders hurt. Then they froze and I couldn’t lift them. Then that sorted itself out over the course of six months or so, but now they’re in pain every time I lie down any way other than flat on my back, and my hands occasionally go numb while lying in bed.
Of course, I’ve seen doctors and they just ¯\(ツ)/¯ “looks fine to us, you’re still young lol”
I’ve been able to mitigate the other pain issues like my back and stuff with stretches and basic exercises. Seriously, fellow “no longer young adults”, I cannot stress enough the importance of stretching and basic exercise, doesn’t even have to be serious exercise, just take a brisk walk or play some VR while standing up, get your body moving, don’t let it calcify.
Ricardo’s just out here doing his best. Good job, Ricardo. Your notification test was successful.
“oh shit we drove away our core user base by making our site actively hostile and it turns out the end result of that is no money”
It’s interesting that they plan to just milk remaining nostalgia rather than move forward by converting games to HTML5, etc., as that indicates no new games. Or, being more optimistic, maybe the plan IS conversion and new games but this is a stop-gap?
Neopets has changed hands so many times. I was there from the beginning, when it was more of a weirdly British satire site (the original Bruce was not a penguin FYI), and watching everything unfold has been so weird.
However, like PlayStation Plus, you’ll only have access to those games that you claim as long as you’re subscribed to the service.
Not a fan of these subscription services that don’t let you keep what you’ve already claimed. I would vastly prefer a subscription service that allows access to discounted games or something, and then if you cancel you still can access whatever games you have bought. But, then again, I’m a known games packrat - maybe for the duration of time one might reasonably use the Quest, this shakes out to still be valuable? How often do regular users go back to old games?
So, the physical release is just… actual garbage? Like sure, someone may proudly display it in their bookshelf or whatever, but then, it eventually becomes trash, and there’s no reason to keep any of it because there’s no physical copy of the game which can be resold or even borrowed out to friends?
That’s not a “physical release”, that’s a piece of merchandise, as useful as a Funko Pop.
Y’all kids and your speedrun strats. Some of us have poor reaction time and need to perform safety setups.
