I mean provided there was a distinct surface to see then it could happen if it was strong enough, but the problem with the bucket is it's limited depth. If the bucket was 20 foot tall I doubt you would see the bottom before those struc

How many other tasks is it not suited for now though? If we wanted a device to automate limited specific tasks then we don't need advanced highly advanced robotics. A human has strength, dexterity, high balance, very sensitive tactile

It was more of a storage problem than a production problem. Plenty of grains and foods people grew throughout known history were more than capable of providing all the calories someone would want or need without crazy effort. The problem is

This is why im not worried about "AI" taking over the world. Robotics still has a LONG way to go. A human can balance a plate on their arm with food while holding a glass of milk in that hand and a donut in the other and still man

I don't read AI slop as a general rule so I don't see it is a personal problem. It just isn't trustworthy enough and it is just full of extra verbose language that lacks the nuance I expect from a human writer. Maybe LLM repl

If they gave a crap about the will of the people then why is marijuana still illegal? When you defy the will of the people 99% of the time, claiming your motivation is the will of the people when it is convenient rings pretty hollow.

I haven't played since the GUI release, but in the past you definitely had to set a fortress population limit to prevent FPS death. Also, assuming DFhack still exists, you can try using it to clean up the messes and splatter which can

Why? Dwarf Fortress only exists because it was given away for free for decades, bringing in tens of thousands of dollars in donations, and eventually leading to a fandom popular enough to bring others onboard with the project to produce a G

I wouldn't consider that a universal feature. It can certainly help, especially if you are aiming for a generalized audience, but not every game needs to be either intended for or accessible to every person. I would use Crusader Kings

I mean being a known fraudster, requesting money from Epstein, and asking about some girl he met through Epstein is context too which is not a good look. He may be innocent, but he certainly has a large stain and stink about him.

Is it really that bad? I haven't played since the GUI update but was thinking about getting into it again because I still have years of muscle memory from it. But if I am forced to use the mouse im not sure I even want to bother. There

Well I guess its neat they added a tactile map for the blind at the beginning of the maze, except the solid hard barrier at the bottom within the very narrow spaces and with hard corners is a massive tripping hazard even for people who can

We should also note that it is a gimmick meant to sell expensive specialty bulbs. Addicts don't need good light to find a vein. And even if it was a problem they still have a lighter and/or phone.

You can't make 1000+ trash robots just to produce one that works okay sometimes and somehow make the economics work from that, so I very much doubt it.

Except the distributed ownership is FAR from being anywhere near evenly distributed. 7-11 doesn't have half the population holding 50%+ of its value. It has 50% of the population holding 1% of the business, 1% holding 10% of the busine

I think that largely depends on what you define as "efficient". I see nothing efficient about funneling profit margins to a larger single entity that may not live in the same state, or even the same country, versus going into loca

They aren't but they should be. Many lives could be saved by making gun safety a mandatory class for all US students. If every kid had to learn the basic rules of gun safety, a significant number of accidental deaths could be prevented

That doesn't seem like much of a threat anymore with China as an industrial powerhouse and contries like Norway sitting on state owned industries.
