Sometimes I would sit in a noodle bar and just watch NPC's come and go. It really does feel like this game got so close to a living, breathing world, but there just wasn't enough hours put into the small details of certain areas.

They could just setup auto moderator rules to bury all new posts

I'd like to hear whether return2ozma believes this or is just posting for points. It seems very out of character for them to post this article.

They're going to get sued into oblivion, so that's one alternative path forward.

Good question 🤔

Last I read this morning it was still a category 4 and never made 5.

Helene was only a category 4 and did this amount of damage. It's insane.

There are many more we won't know about until next week. This is a national tragedy.

I could not for the life of me get into frostpunk, but IXION was pretty good.

We don't grow our crops in a desert. They grow in very specific regions of the world, often in areas that are suitable due to natural formations and easily obtainable water. Most of Canada is forested land that is uninhabited with no infrastructure such as roads, running water, or electricity - not to mention there has never been a large agricultural presence in those areas, so it would have to be started from scratch, if it is possible at all.

When you say we'll huddle around the proverbial fires, it might be a very small human population. Our civilization (likely including both of us) probably won't be around at that point.

Plants don't grow without light. Plants can't survive extreme heat and drought.

Once it gets too hot or too dry to grow crops, it won't matter anymore. Call me a doomer, but we aren't doing enough to stop that future from happening.
