What? No ketchup chips?!
I usually prefer Safeway XXX all dressed instead of their exxtra ketchup but think they have been discontinued. All other brands of ketchup suck compared.

PLOT TWIST!!!

Actually your conciousness never leaves your body!

All your ancestors are fully conscious despite not breathing anymore. But they are for centuries just staring the darkness below the earth.

And thats your destiny too! An endless emptyness.

So, if I'm following your hypothetical situation here and we are under the assumption that consciousness is a single point perspective, then it makes no sense to have it tied to a body that is decaying as the material that makes up our body will spread out over time. It makes even less sense to assume that it is tied to an arbitrary location under the ground or whatever. Therefore, if consciousness is indeed a separate and eternal entity, then it will exist outside of its physical shackles by utilizing senses that are currently unknown to us (if it has no senses with which to form a perspective, then it technically can't be called consciousness).

Shakespeare already answered that:

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy"

Don't worry about 5 billion years from now, bro. You can't even see 100 years into the future.

Also though, Humans should be free, so that they are free to transcend any and all limitations. Like being bound to the Earth. Get those space programs kicking, I don't care if we have to build a gawtdamn flotilla and go full Quarian. DEEP SPACE NOW!

Last week I was thinking about some things...

Like in geometry classes. When we were taught about points, lines, etc.

You can clearly explain what a point or line is. Every dictionary gonna have a proper explanation of that. But try looking for a point or line in real world.

Then you gonna see that point isnt actually a point. Its more like a disc. Maybe not even rounded. Line isnt a line but some deformed rectangle.

"Freedom" is like those old geometry concepts. You can easily bring a dictionary meaning of that, and everyone gonna agree about whats being free. But when you take a closer look of it... well, its just not like a point, nor like a line, you know what I mean...

Literally spent 12 hours EXPing in FFXI on my LP character after recording 5th vid. I was not very efficient, cause that's not my goal... but anyway.

WAR39, THF23, MNK22, WHM22, BLM33, and RDM 15. I coulda gotten further probably, but I spent a silly amount of time trying to force feed gear into the North Gustaberg outpost to try and take back Gustaberg from San d'Oria, because apparently Odin is hardcoded like... Sand and Windy duke it out, and Bastok gets what's left... and I guess the San d'Orians really like taking over Gustaberg for some reason...

Bastok only came outta Conquest this week with Li'Telor and Valdeaunia.

Is there a new bot or a packet way to know what things are priced on the ah.

This guy is a *** physcic. As soon as I put stuff up, he pops on an undercuts it. I see him do it. I come back an hour later and undercut his undercut. He magically *** pops on and undercuts that. It's impossible.

it's being removed and repriced, before anything even sells. I try to buy for "price". Can't. I place for below "price". I come back an hour later. His ***sold. I check again. Nope. I place it even lower. An hour later his ***sold again.

AFAIK, AH bots arent anything new but risky.

And yeah, not the first time I read Assurans trying to control price of something. I dont think there is much to do either.

I mean that he seems to know when and what exactly I'm undercutting him for. It's not that hes screwing up the price. It's that he can literally see exactly what to put it up for to sell first.

Ill check 100k, put up 90k. come back his ***is 89k. Ill check 70k put for 60k come back his ***is 59k. I'll check 50k, put up for 40k come back and his shits up for 39k. I'll put up for 24k his shits up for 23k. No one can just do that, that accurately, by accident.

They keep selling for 100+ because I keep resetting the history, so there's no explanation for him to randomly underprice his own items under his own prices.

But this kinda reminds me the craft exploit.

I mean, the game purposelly add a delay between the action and the craft result despite the result being decided at very first second.

Similar to AH: you place a bid and wait till the result but there is no point, the result is decided right way, you dont even need third party. If you cancel the purchase it will automatically print the result.

So, maybe something similar to craft. You “read” the result then cancel it all, without the purchase but with the info about price.

I also heard the drop rate of Ridill increased too.

It's a little sus is all. If I check the price, place, and come back an hour later exactly undercut by 1k multiple times. My bullshitometer goes off.

People generally dont undercut themselves, when their items sell. If you put 7 50k items up, and they sell for 100k, you don't come back and place another seven back up for 29k just because.

The latest episode of the 'Reply All' podcast had me thinking about FFXI. They talk about Team Fortress 2, but there are plenty of parallels made that really hit home.

#178 I am not a Bot
https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/episodes#show-tab-picker

The show hasn't been as good as it was in the past. Still, after listening if you want to listen some more, I recommend:
  • Boy in Photo

  • #102 Long Distance

I’m not going to be here in 100 years either, nvm 5 million. If I’m lucky I’ll still be here in 40 years.

The great limiter comes to mind, making that kind of ideology unlikely but I like the optimism

Me too.

Actually I died 50 years ago in a car accident. Since then my consciouness have been traveling around the world till I found one computer that I could possess and expand my powers over the world.

Nowaday all I do is monitoration in the internet stealing nude and sex content that users sent and posting in FFXIAH because why not.

Bastok will rise again!

Honestly, though, I've always wondered how much a single person can do to try and shift Conquest. For all my efforts, I don't think the meter for Bastokan influence went up nary a pixel.

Also when I played actively, pre-Adoulin anyway, it always seemed like any nation's game. I remember one time Bastok and Sandy tied for first, and it did weird ***to the vendors. It was kinda cool.

It's also odd, because on Odin in the campaign era, Bastok owns like 1 more territory than the other two. I wonder why that effort doesn't translate to older area conquest. hmm.

Yeah a single person can sway conquest easily.

At 75 cap 2009 I would craft a million scorpion arrows all week in sandoria and at 59 minutes to conquest tally, trade them all to saruba OP during that last hour.

And sandoria owned windurst just like that, from zero region influence.
