There are a few sections restricted to solo only, but it’s not the default, the matchmaking is pretty quick for a random group and there’s a variety of people always looking to form groups for different tasks. One word of warning, people move fast, until you get parkour down, you might just end up running from the start to end of a level if you join groups, they’ll have completed the objectives and be waiting for you to extract.

Clans exist, and each have their own space station called a dojo that’s customized by them (cost is based on size of the clan, as a solo I was able to build up and level a clan on my own).

Path of Exile.

I’d say I’m a fairly mid-tier player, get better with each season I play, the breadth of mechanics and depth of complexity is mind breaking. I’ve only played like 2000 hours though, I’ll get it all figured out eventually… Right?

Jury nullification.

Statistically anomalous data exists, it should be scrutinized, just partially. Sample and do a hand recount for 1 district that shows the greatest evidence of bullet ballots, if that turns out close to expectations, that’s the end of it. If it isn’t… that’s a massive can of worms.

1 anomaly can be seen as a random outlier, and if it wouldn’t impact the overall result, can be ignored. Multiple anomalies, in only the places that matter is worth a little time to confirm.

My family’s considered something similar, mostly because of one of my children’s allergies that make plane travel more risky. Helps that I have lots of PTO/work remote and we homeschool the kids though. It’s only like 26-30 hours for us.

Article says the erroneous menus weren’t distributed. So, probably not.

Removing the allergen warning is basically some form of attempted manslaughter.

Good point about correlation, entirety possible the depressed and anxious people may tend to increase screen use.

Rube flag?

I think part of the issue is more related to the Peter Principle, the job that one must be good at in order to become a politician has a different skill set from that which makes one a good politician.

Never did I suspect this Stephen Lynch song to not feel completely outlandish.

I would generally say they’re great with anything you happy being 100% right 90% of the time.

Maybe more like the new Oak Island Money Pit.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the 2nd best time is today.

ZERO SIEVERT (Steam)

I’m bending rule 4, because the official 1.0 release is announced for less than 1 month from now.

ZERO Sievert is a tense top-down extraction shooter that challenges you to scavenge a procedurally-generated wasteland, loot gear, and explore what’s left of a devastated world. When the odds are stacked against you, you’ll need to do more than just survive.

I’ve played through it a 2nd time recently, it’s a fun solo experience, the difficulty is largely customizable, the different zones feel unique, lots to explore, even just a little morality testing on some quests. Decent enemy variety, the guns generally feel different, and different ammo types do matter. Skill will take you far, and carelessness, even in the easy areas, will be punished.

I write these words in steel, for anything not set in metal cannot be trusted.

I trust someone who’s better with puns and all the latest politics than I to do it justice, but I feel like there’s a rendition of “Brave Sir Robin” as “Brave Sir Orange” that could be quite good.

They do, but unfortunately, they’re radicalized nutjobs, so they aren’t much of an option now…
