Not trying to be argumentative, but I've seen this stat of there being more empty houses than homeless people thrown around a few times with different numbers and no sources given. Do you have a source for those numbers?
Hmm can't seem to load the archive site so haven't read the whole thing. Anyone know details of how this works? Are we all fucked if we have a phone or is staying off social media and hardening security with something like Graphene OS enough to keep you out of their system?
Agreed. Anybody with an ounce of empathy watching these pigs panic and mash their bodies to a bloody pulp while trying desperately to get oxygen, knows this shit is wrong.
Nitrogen is a lighter gas than CO2. Because air is 79% N2 they have about the same density, meaning if you fill a pit with N2, other air will mix in easily and the whole thing just becomes breathable air. Fill a pit with CO2, which is heavier and the process takes much longer, so it can actually be maintained if you keep adding a bit more CO2 to replace what drifts away over time.
It's still possible to make a killing machine that would use N2 instead but it would involve airtight pens for the animals and gas pumping systems, which would be much more expensive than a pit filled with CO2 that you can dip regular cages into. So, sadly yes, it's just about the money.
Everything around them is built for cars. When that's the case, and you have no car (are underage to drive) you essentially have no freedom because you can't go anywhere or do anything. Bikes are great, they are also exhausting and impractical to cover the distances that cars can. An e-scooter can get you there faster than a bike and without being exhausted. I think it gives these kids a taste of freedom and independence that they crave.
Hmm. This is a good start. I feel like it needs to better express the feeling of being a squishy human, being ground up in the relentless and uncompromising gears of the machine. Maybe throw some gears lubricated with blood on that badboy...
Nobody has mentioned Blue Isle Studios yet. I played Valley, which is a single player, story/mystery driven game played in a wilderness setting with some cool movement mechanics. I can certainly recommend it if that sounds interesting to you. Their newer games are horror (slender man) or multiplayer pvp games that don't get great reviews and aren't my jam so I haven't tried them but Valley was great.
