If You Have a Random Thought, Post it Here.

8,000

If you want to learn how far some places really are, bike there. Or walk. Reminds you why you appreciate cars.

I find it useful to walk to the store,

Only having two arms limits the amount of food I can buy.

300,000/1,500= 200 pages

200/33=6 hours read time

Debate, Rounds, Characters, pages, averages, minimums, hours, read time, but what about invisible characters like spaces. .

I wonder how effective advertising on unrelated products is.

Make a cheap and/or good product,

Such as cookies or paper towels,

But have your advertising on the product.

. . . I suppose one could either make said product for a 'specific advertising, or sell the advertising space.

I’m gonna miss both DART and this thread.

It’s very fitting that my final post on DART is gonna be here. This post, in fact.

Logging off for one final time.

Ok that was not my last post

Just saw a clip of the Office, that included Dwight's Gym.

Involved a lot of activities such as chopping firewood.

Not actually a bad idea, if one could make a 'gym of various tasks to be completed, that service some financial benefit.

Sure 'some jobs 'claim they are helping workers by giving them something physical to do,

But they can be inconsistent, too many hours, too much specific movement, back breaking isn't the same as gym.

Should the site shut down, this shall be my real final post.

I don't really like the latest AOE2 update,

Partially because something is up with computer maybe, whole screen is darker now when I play AOE2.

The elite appearance upgrade was an interesting 'idea, but the more the game changes, the less it feels AOE2.

I'm doubtful the Romans were a good addition,

But speaking of the latest update, Three Kingdoms, I'd have rather had countries such as Tibet, and no 'heroes.

. . .

Yet I see 'some value in updating a game.

I didn't think much of Warcraft 3 Reforged, I prefer the older graphics.

But maybe there would have been something said for additional factions than just the 4, 'so 'long as they left the base game and multiplayer alone.

Haven't played Warcraft 2 online with people before,

I remember the campaigns being fun.

But 'might feel a bit limited nowadays in multiplayer, limited choices.

I don't 'hate the idea of updating old games,

Though I view it a bit more as getting 'new games when so much changes.

. . . 'Really new game doesn't 'need a total engine and graphics rework. Just new content.

Ah, no it aint

Last post?

Ok, last post, but for real this time.

GOODBYE DART, THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES!

Ah personal thoughts thread, I have missed you.

I could have started a new one on DebateCraft, but then I'd have to deal with notification after notification.

I don't remember my various random thoughts while DART was down,

But I remember that I 'had some.

Standard pencil has 6 sides, therefore pencils are dice.

I do kind of wonder who is going to bother using the offensive content filter on DebateCraft.

Trump Wall, looks a bit more like a fence.

Walls should be 'thick.

Be better off using rammed earth and mud bricks, digging out and building up a slanted hill.

Put US prisons on the border and use chain gangs, detention centers,

Have them build the wall, and if they escape into Mexico, ah well.

Company that offers to find an item of your request, so that they can sell it to you.

Earthquake in Russia, I live in Oregon, eh, probably won't be that big of a wave here in Oregon.

How does copyright apply to translations?

Since one has to sleep X many hours before work to function, does such mean workdays are actually 'longer than is supposed?

Since even to 'sleep, is sleep at the behest of one's employer, to 'work?

How does one make a dense, compact, yet lengthy Choose Your Own Adventure Book?

There's a limited amount of space available, yet if you put multiple answers on a page, then it results in spoilers.

Russia is immune from natural disasters. Another one of Putin’s promises.

I suppose one reason we have so many humans, is countries like having workers.

. . . We're 'getting better AI, better robots,

But we've 'already been replacing humans with machines for a while now,

. . . Does that imply our population could be considered 'much bigger than it currently is?

Ant lifts 100 times weight or something,

Humans use of machines, meaning we effectively have Population times X many humans?

. . .

I wonder if AI and humanoid robots will ever be more than 51% of a country,

AI and robots 'more analogous to humans I mean.

. . . Besides, a computer doesn't count as a person,

But then even a humanoid AI might not count as a person.

I ordered Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 4G. Will I regret it, or will it be the best possible phone I could afford 🤔

The Dice Man by Luke Rhinehart

I give a -3 out of 10.

Though in a 'sense it could be considered a good book, it is not the sort of book I like.

. . . I'd prefer the Underground Man to 'this book.

The Dice Man, a villain, who claims to be Egoless, yet has simply Ego inflated his value of Dice and Chance.

Like Loki, predictable in their unpredictability.

I like Eric in the book, better than the Dice Man.

Of course it is the 'bit of truth that bother one, that make awful evils at times.

But I am fond of Ego, and Social Norm Ethics/Morals, Nihilist though I am, a human must believe in 'something, value something.

Even the Dice Man does that, values chance and his various chance desires.

Values some outcomes more than others.

Though maybe he got a fair bit towards nothing in the end. Malfunctioning piece of carp.

I like loyalty, honesty, even if it's hard to keep up all the time.

I mind not the chance that I admire these. I admire them. One must be something.

Even in his tilt towards nothing in the end, he chose to value chance, Being 'Something Cannot be escaped while one 'IS.

I disliked how his wife later used dice a couple times.

Ought just take what accountability we can in life.

'Ought live right as best we can.

We can often follow the law 'and our desires.

I'd sooner throw this book in the trash than donate it anywhere.

More realistically, it'll go in my box of books I disdain.
