Which also goes into the fact that a society can have many moral systems, but you only tend to have one *legal* system.

That's fair, I would argue that one focus of law is to follow and promote the morality of the land, and morality changes throughout time.
And since law isn't an immediate thing, and can't emulate morality 1:1, so there are going to be times when immoral things are legal.

Ehh, I think I had enough with the slavery topic for a while.
I remember hearing once that it was considered "wrong" that Columbus DIDN'T bring back slaves... is that true at all?

In theory, yes. But countless political and legal systems have existed which pass laws for any number of reasons, be it business or personal or a powerful minority oppressing a weaker majority that straight up violate social contract.

Law and morality are two circles in a Venn Diagram with plenty of intersect, but also plenty of places where they're different.

Also both of which circles are wiggling constantly.
Morality and law changes over time pretty regularly.

ImmortalityV, "I would like to kiss Icoyar to be honest in a non gay way though"

Well... you can make laws that are immoral for one.

I'll only have a couple moments of pvp, not a game dedicated to it.
First and most immediate problem is I have an npc that I just made following the character sheet and he's going to spar with one of my friends. And later im gonna make a custom boss and I was going to handle it the same way; filling out the character sheet and just having it a higher level

...That's not actually PvP, that's just using player mechanics against a player.

PvP is stuff like the thief stealing s*** from the paladin, players attacking each other, and so on.
The two elements of people on the table attacking each other are players, so it's player vs player.

Most of them have to do that to avoid copyright strikes because YouTube doesn't understand the meaning of "fair use".

Isn't that based on like more than thirty seconds at a time or something? I didn't think it measured cumulative footage. I also thought it was mostly based on audio (which is muted or low in volume with someone speaking over it) and generally didn't apply to game footage besides Nintendo.

No, no it's just if a program looks at the video and says it has "enough" content.
It's not YouTube who copyright strikes, it's the companies.

30 seconds means nothing, it's not real in anyway shape or form.

Yeah, I don't know why this is so complicated.

Flint, MI says "Hi"

Flint, Michigan is within the urban orbit of Detroit, which basically IS a third-world country.

Most of the old steel towns and auto manufacture towns in the US are more or less post-apocalyptic wasteland at this point.

I don't believe that you have ever been to Flint.

Ya, replace the pipes.
Unless the lead is in the groundwater in which case the town should be evacuated and forgotten

So... how much would that cost? To replace all of the pipes?
I'm willing to bet even Canada wouldn't do that.

Lokarin posted...

The problem was that they switched out from Detroit's watersupply, to use a different supply. They then went back to Detroit's water. But once again, lead stained the pipes.
So... the groundwater is irrelevant.

Because the lead is already stuck in the pipes.
Currently the problem is erratic and pocketed, some parts got hit harder than the other.

Honestly, I don't really care.
It's a system, systems fuck up, it happens, no biggie. The larger the company does mean they're less likely to fuck up, but it's not impossible.

It's pretty good that it went this far without a fuckup.

So how do I make friends in college? I don't just walk up to random people and say "hi" and intrude on what they were occupied with doing before I showed up, do I?

Play something that requires you to talk to other people, card games, board games, RPGs, that sort of thing.
Then go to some sort of meetup for that, 99.9% of schools have some sort of gaming club, you can show up, learn new games, talk to people.

Don't think of games as the main focus, think of it like social lubricant. During downtimes in conversation you can think more about the game, you can talk about the game itself as conversation filler (plus games are built to be fun, they're pretty fun to talk about), and you can quickly figure out if you want to talk to a person or not.

There are also computer clubs, which I hear are basically just people sitting around goofing around near computers.

Also, people are pretty chill if you fuck up socially, as long as you're honest about you fucking up, apologize for it, and then let it drop. Focusing on making sure everything is pristine just doesn't move the conversation at all, always be moving.

Speaking of Disney...never work for them. I knew they'd be corporate as hell before starting this project, but they are cruel masters indeed. Everyone we are in contact with there is actually pretty nice (although I got into a yelling match *which I later won* with our main contact at Disney last week), but the red tape and flaming hoops is absurd. And there's just a bunch of BS on this show in general.

From everything that I've heard about working in/with Disney, I'm half-surprised they haven't imploded yet.
