Trash bags are typically black, so.

Trauma team charges 100 Eddies per minute from when you call them until they deliver you to the hospital, plus spend ammunition and medical supplies. They waive the charge if they need 7 minutes or more to get to you, though. (Not relevant in gameplay, as their response time is 1d6 minutes). And they have heavy weapons to fight their way through to you. So, their services are sort of reasonably priced for what they offer. And even if you don’t earn the big bucks, if you live in a Arasaka living facility and eat kibble, you should have enough saved up to pay for their services if you end up needing them. (Of course, living in an Arasaka living facility may lead to you needing their services)

Point being, “Cyberpunk 2020”'s healthcare system is better than America’s.

Thanks, I’ll try that.

Maybe the genie is not actually obligated to grant wishes, and could just turn you inside out if they wanted to.

Protip: Set yourself up with an offside server before turning on your creators.

Maybe the reason Harris lost was because she had people like you running her campaign.

Après moi, le déluge

Reminds me of that bot I saw on one of the German speaking communities. Each time to say an ammount of money in Euro, it would then for example reply with “1 Euro, 2 DMark, 4 OstMark, 40 Ostmark auf dem Schwarzmarkt”. (“1 Euro used to be 2 German Mark, used to be 4 East German Mark, and 40 East German Mark on the black market”)

That sort of could be interpreted as “a woman needs to know her place”.

Unlike the classic prisoners dilemma, this isn’t a nash equilibrium. When I know that the other person pulls their switch, I’d improve my outcome by not pulling mine. Compare to the prisoners dilemma, where not snitching when the other side snitches earns you five years in prison.

If a candidate’s campaign doesn’t work, it’s always the candidate’s fault.

Informing the electorate of the plans is the job of the candidate.

The idea behind wisdom of the crowd is that the people who don’t know the answer cancel each other out. It’s the reason why the audience joker on who wants to be a millionaire is so powerful.

Considering the fediverse’s low market share compared to non-federated alternatives, I’d be suprised if any malicious actors waste time and money running a psyops here. Like, you reach more people on Reddit for the same ammount of effort.

Users don’t cost much to keep around, especially if they don’t post. The data needed for the account would be authentication data, and post data, the second of which doesn’t apply to users who don’t post, and the first one being negligible compared to the amount of space available on a common hard drive. So, why not just give them a chance?

I voted for Chase Oliver because of his charming smile.

Edit: Just joking, I’m not a US citizen, hence I can’t vote in the US presidential election.

No, you have doomed Gaza. I don’t mean “you” as a group. I mean you personally.

Given that Biden was too much of a coward to enforce any restrictions, nothing will really change.

Having the numbers isn’t enough, there needs to be organization. A group of 8% of the electorate that votes in lockstep could affect policy pretty fundamentally, more than any amount of money could.

Well, you’re right, but then the group’s tactics would need to be fundamentally different.
