These sort of things, if unorganized, just show corps and govs that nothing will change because there is no real organization beyond a call to action.

The real thing to do here is to organize something. Get people to sign up, just a simple list of everyone that agrees to it. Set up some sort of text or mailing list as a reminder, and actually do the thing. This is probably one of the most likely “protests” to succeed with proper organization and initiative because all those that participate have to do is not log on for a day.

It’s gotta be a place to start.

This is necessary. Life feeds on life.

Too often contrarianism is confused and substituted for critical thinking. However to read anything about any new product without contrasting Astro turfing or propaganda is naive

I been paranoid about hacked games for a while but this seems sad. It likes like there is some sort of safety feature. I guess you can check the validity of the installer and then the hash of the game straight from gog? That feels as legit as the screen can get if so. Wouldn’t mind trying to archive this for historical preservation reasons but I have to find time to get a walkthrough

I’m really hoping for some fan mod of something down the line that converts all of these assets to a near perfect replica of the OG game just turn based.

I’ll probably get blow back but I was never a fan of the combat. I’d prefer tank heal dps. I love literally everything else about the game except the combat.

Thank you!

Jesus can someone help out and give me just the text. I can’t get anything but ad ridden hell on that page in my iPhone

Ah gotcha. I get the whole trying to explain in universe motives but sometimes I feel like that sort of thing needs too much detail and feels like it reaches too far. But for that exercise… hmmm… my Worfs razor would be that she is genuinely, to her core, all about life and healing it. Maybe just humans but that would introduce another personality flaw, but we’ll say just life. But it needs another angle because it’s not enough to simply be so pro-something that you become anti something else (without negative personality traits like racists), so maybe she had an experience when younger that really showed her that the computer that talks to her wasn’t alive and over time those two perspectives created the riff that we see when she meets Data. So close to your explanation I guess lol

Mind you it’s been a minute since I watched tng.

Doesn’t she eventually come around to him? I really think she’s just a moral lesson in character form. Even in trek people aren’t perfect when expressed to new things but have the opportunity to grow. If everyone behaved perfectly at the introduction of every new stimulus then there would be no growth and that is not good storytelling.

Very Larson-esque

Plasticity. Otherwise every one in the human race would be soft lobotomized before 3.
