As one person on YouTube said, "Indeed, General Solomon was the only one with the presence and charisma to be a worthy counterpart to Kane." He will be missed. :( -

GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (a GATE: and thus the JSDF Fought fic)
These snippets are not the final product. I'm taking a page from @Kiyone4ever and his Gate fic (The Janus Campaign), where I post snippets of the next chapter to gauge the reactions of the snippet and get any help with anything that my spellcheck and whatnot misses.- Words: 47

GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (a GATE: and thus the JSDF Fought fic)
Ok, sorry for the god-forsaken long hiatus. Real Life was a complete and utter bitch. Subway took a lot of my energy (especially since it was doing Amazon BS), meaning that I had less time and energy for anything more than snippets. The only reason that I'm getting back into it now is because...- Words: 780

The Music Thread
Given that it literally birthed an entire genre of games and built that genre to near ubiquitous for a good decade... ... not surprising. -

IN THE NAME OF KANE! The CnC Story Recs and Ideas Thread
Given that Tib absorbs heavy elements like a sponge, not that likely. In addition, what can contain Tib can easily contain radiation from fission... The funny thing is that with the prevalence of nuclear power, synthetic plastics, petrochems, and rubber can be made at a massive scale without... -
IN THE NAME OF KANE! The CnC Story Recs and Ideas Thread
So, I've been working on the CnC Generals/Tiberium fusion and got you some things: Timeline so far. Basically, Kane's Black Hand got a little sloppy and caused the creation of GDI's predecessor (using a reformation of the Peacekeepers as a cover) leading to a series of events that include... -

... that ignores what Electronic Communities predicted (and, oddly enough, proved), though. Then again, a lot of people have better faith in humanity when it should never be warranted in the first place. All that's happening these days stems from the fact that we rather thoroughly ignored that... -
General chat thread
From what I understand, no. The mere presence of various laws is a threat in itself, sadly enough. The big thing is that the 'Wild West' period has been ending in the last half-decade or so. However, my stance is that -with some benefit of hindsight, though supported mainly by MIT's Electronic... -

This is the same thing for Tumbler as it is for DeviantArt: legal protection. Basically, DeviantArt is covering their legal asses, or they'll get shut down. -

The world once oil starts drying up.
Petrochems are more than just fuel, mind you; it's plastics, medicines, and even fertilizers. Fission's (and fusion's) energy-to-weight ratio is immense, and people's resistance to it is why I said it's a problem. -
The world once oil starts drying up.
Sorry but, no, technological limitations are the reasons why things like slavery and serfdom existed. We've literally become the horse in the car analogy. That's a sad reality we must face in the end. Not really. The thing is that we've got the technology to produce synthetic petrochems; the... -

That line is completely uttered by the Nintendo haters, Nintendo Doctrine has always been 'build around a core game loop, add things to make things fun' more than anything. Innovating for the sake of innovating is forbidden in Nintendo, though. -

Guess who recently got a P100 respirator? I did. :) Also, it showed up on Monday, two days before it should have arrived. :) -
Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic
The thing is, they're pretty harmful memes in general. A memetic hazard of sorts, causing people to pull shit like ramming trains into hospital ships. Hence why people have been calling them mind plagues. 3 is a yes and no answer. Vaccines have ratings against various versions of a disease. For... -

To be honest, there is a very good argument for it being 5a, but when weighing in the fact that conspiracy theories have been a thing for far longer than social media... you could do both... -

I would argue 9 has a general caveat of 'depending on constituency', but that's pretty much what we've learned. Also, I would argue that there is an 11th lesson: conspiracy theories are mind plagues.
