    This is basic, but there are thousands of lectures, books, and papers on it, going back to the 80's.

    Or anything with Donald Hoffman, which there is a ton.

    Basically, our brain just handles our cognitive needs, and filters consciousness, which is a fundamental property of the universe. Think what you will, but this is a pretty popular theory in the past decade or so. Among physicists and neurologists alike...

    My first thought was, "Have you talked to the Fallout modding community?" They're huge masochists and love being shit on, even though they create such amazing things and deserve nothing but praise and monetary rewards...

  • The toll road scam: A government-made monopoly you pay for.

    This shit angers me to no end. Where I live, they built this wonderful highway around the greater metro area. Said it'd be a toll road for 25 years until paid off. We're on year 29 now, because they needed to "update" it.

    Then, you find out the tolls are managed by a for-profit company in Saudi Arabia...? The express lanes, that cause more traffic and wrecks than a simple exspansion of lanes, is ran buy a for-profit company, in a foreign country. It makes no sense, unless you're a fan of unregulated capitalism, I guess.

    They really expect us to believe this shit!? Those are definitely large alien spiders that are coming to the surface to mate and multiply as they prepare to attack Earth. I need to join up with United Citizen Federation, quick. I suggest you all do the same...

    Humans have a really, really hard time NOT assigning human attributes to every other living thing.

    One thing that makes this hypothesis seem possible, is that some researchers are suggesting consciousness is external, and eternal. Meaning all living things are essentially antennae.

  • [Heavy Spoilers] What effect has the Fallout TV show had on the lore?

    IMHO, it doesn't matter how the show does the lore. Just finished the 7th episode, and I love how they're tieing it all together. Sure it doesn't work chronologically, but it's pretty damn good how they've done it.

    As someone who waited outside an Electronics Boutique, at a mall, at 5am to get a copy of "Fallout: A Post Apocalyptic Role-Playing Game", I'm enjoying it. Every Fallout game since that day in 1997, I've loved. Although 76 was a little wonky...

    I have ~1400 hours in New Vegas, and ~1300 in FO4. Who knows how many hours in the others, as I didn't use Steam until 12 years ago....

    I didn't like Dune Part Two. I felt it was way too rushed, with all the emotion trod into the sand.

    I suspect there will be a directors cut/extended version too be released. If not, I know I'll be disappointed. David Lynch's Dune had a Directors Cut that added almost an hour. Although it was mostly... Lynchesque, abstract dialogue, strangeness, etc.

  • Heyas, wondering if there's an open sourced piece of software or the like, that could scrape media platforms for a specific topic. Platforms like YT, X, Lemmy, News Media, etc., perhaps using RSS? But, a program I can host on my server, that only I have access too, via webpage, CLI, whatever... Thanks for any info...

    Although, I thought I was on the right track to progress the game, I ended it accidently. So I'm wondering if I missed some que at some point, or made the wrong decision. I honestly don't know. I mean, I don't think I made it through Act II. So, without spoiling anything, I'd just like to warn my fellow players, that everyone saying there are thousands of possible endings, might indeed be true. So, think hard about choices made. The ending I received was very... anti-climatic. I didn't want to reload and backtrack, or make different choices. So I started anew. Pay attention to your companions, even if they're obnoxious, and overly horny. I think this is the most RPG game in the history of RPGs....

    Thanks for providing a place to discuss the difficult, and exhausting job of defending our city and state from Non-Natives, or even worse, Non-Subaru owners.
