Shadow is the kind of person where the central premise can hold some ground, but the accompanying arguments retroactively make it retarded

>More ad hominems On a related note, I cannot for the life of me understand how so many Brits can simultaneously have this defeatist attitude for their own country, yet act so condescendingly towards Americans. I'll be the first to admit that America isn't some magical utopia and that we have plenty...

Luke Cox

Knowing his track record, do you honestly believe Trump isn't crazy enough to do that?

Also, >literally no arguments

Luke Cox

Why are people acting as if the UK isn't in any position to make demands when it comes to these trade deals? The world's 5th biggest market is going to be ripe for the picking. The EU's share of the UK's trade has steadily dropped over the past 10 years, and the trend is continuing. It baffles me ho...

Luke Cox

Just came up with an idea: nanite program that generates points when different things are done to the host. Different types of damage, being injected with different chems, etc. Only awards points once per thing, of course. At last, we'll have human experimentation.

Luke Cox

>Brexit deal I'll admit that there were definitely a wide range of demands when it came to Brexit, and in my opinion that's what makes the deal all the more baffling. It's like May hand-picked the worst of both worlds. Freedom of movement was probably the biggest unifying factor (marketing it as &qu...

Luke Cox

Firstly >libertarian instead of liberal Liberalism is different to libertarianism, they're not interchangeable words. The distances of our non-eu trade partners is irrelevant, our major industry is the financial services sector and thus trade happens via phone/internet and happens at light speed. I...

I can make the RD blow the borgs within 5 minutes 9 out of 10 times I'm a comms agent. They don't need to be more powerful, forging PDA messages is already insanely robust

Luke Cox

Surely you've heard of May's draft agreement. It's basically the opposite of what everyone who supported Brexit wanted

Luke Cox

Things are definitely a lot better for security than they were in the past, but a lot of people are still afraid of getting bwoinked for doing their job as a security officer. Things like the Pax scenario a few posts up are why.

Luke Cox

It's one thing for the EU to not want the UK to leave and to bargain in their own best interest, it's another for them to take what would appear to be punitive action against the UK in what I can only perceive to be an attempt to intimidate other member states into remaining. The EU is not a soverei...

Killing someone as the chef and getting executed by sec with no way to fight back is shit. Validhunting sec is gonna turn me into a rule lawyer then anything else in ss13. In that scenario, I would give you one of the HoS medals and instruct you to display his head on a pike. Generally though, tl;d...

Luke Cox

I'm sure you could do something with it if you tried really hard, but I feel like a dedicated space for a completely new thing for science to do greatly outweighs having a dedicated room for outdated filler content

Luke Cox

This is why I just execute people when they commit capital crimes

Luke Cox

If the UK really is serious about leaving (drafting a reasonable deal is a whole other matter), the EU is on borrowed time. I understand that Euroskepticism is on the rise in Italy, and Greece is pretty pissed at the EU too. I think my favorite part is how Euroskeptics are painted as a bunch of frin...

Luke Cox

The design of the supermatter engine and the documentation surrounding it encourages experimentation and custom setups. The entire fucking point of adding the SM engine was that the singularity and tesla engines were two-dimensional and shallow. Unless the person in question was deliberately trying ...

Luke Cox

With techwebs being a thing, I wouldn't mind the experimentor being removed completely

Luke Cox

You could make the top part hold all the machines, and the bottom area some test pen for people or something. Or maybe shove other miscellaneous stuff there. Seriously, R&D looks like a clusterfuck when you build the nanite machines there, and robotics doesn't have any free real estate either.

I've been doing it wrong this whole time

Luke Cox

Every map has a room for the experimentor, which was shoved in because telescience was removed. We're getting nanites, and both R&D and Robotics are full as it is. Dump the experimentor lab and dump the nanite stuff in there instead. Room gets some use, other rooms stay tidy. 10/10 fund it

Picked up a Switch recently. Breath of the Wild is a better game than Skyrim. Change my mind.

Meta + Delta wombo combo

What if deconstructing an item related to a specific tech node cut the cost of it in half?

Luke Cox

It's really simple, just add ways to get more points

Luke Cox

The concept is excellent and fundamentally better than old R&D in every way, but the execution needs work. Rework the UI (alphabetize shit for god's sake) and add more sources for research points

Luke Cox

I was the one who came up with the idea for Peacekeepers. The idea behind them was to give the AI and borgs some teeth when it came to enforcing law 1, even if those teeth were a bit dulled. The defender idea is intriguing, even if they were a bit dulled. Your defender idea is interesting, but I thi...

Luke Cox

Roughly how much content is in this? It looks intriguing but I'm not sure about 30 bucks. I hear that the devs are still adding content. How's that going?

Luke Cox

Speaking of this "biker gang" kit, what the fuck is with this faggy ATV shit? I demand a real chopper.

Luke Cox

Hey, I'm the original coder for Devil. I really like these ideas. Just a few things to note about my original intent for devils: It was an intentional design choice to make devils and lawyers interact. Lawyers basically have no mechanical purpose whatsoever... so I gave them one. I also had interac...

Luke Cox

Pretty fun. Very popular on Linux.

Luke Cox

I think this is generally a good idea, so long as we don't lock things like surgery and chemistry behind traits. Just make these bonus positive traits that make things a little more efficient.

Luke Cox

If stocks are so awful, have you considered not doing them?

Luke Cox

Watch me as traitor CE. You haven't seen shit, son

Luke Cox

Pretty retarded meme imo considering that Trump himself surprisingly hasn't tried to take credit for it. South Korea is the one sharing credit with Trump.

Luke Cox

Ideally you'd need some kind of power purchasing or progression system. Not sure how that could work, but you could tie it to eating rare metals or valuable items maybe. As for objectives, here's what I've got so far: Steal research levels Drain power from powernet Obtain head IDs Hijack the AI (car...

Don't count them out yet, I'm sure they'd love to hop in when they get their Caliphate

Luke Cox

lel Peace and denuclearization are the reasonable goals. A lot of South Koreans want reunification, but that's a long, long ways off. The only plan I can see working is one that involves gradually acclimating the north to the modern world over the course of a few decades. And obviously Kim isn't giv...

Luke Cox

Yes and no. They've claimed that they're willing to negotiate before, but it was more "no more tests if you give us food, pinky promise!" and not "hey let's go to South Korea, hold hands while skipping over the border, and announce an end to our nuclear program on state television&quo...

I would caution against making these guys too complicated. Circuit printers seem a little extreme for something that was imagined as a specialized science department.

Complete de-nuclearization is still in the works but very likely. We still have the summit with Trump, NK has announced that they're halting their program, and they have stated that it is not off the table. Again, we have to consider the position that they have been put in. China has been whipped in...

I like the idea of their more powerful abilities blowing off their synthflesh on certain body parts, and having to regenerate it over time. Getting some from chemistry can speed up the process, but asking for a bunch of synthflesh patches will look extremely suspicious

Luke Cox

It's certainly a common pattern, but they've gone well past what they've done in previous instances. Kim Jong-Un actually going to South Korea, announcing the end of their nuclear program on state televison, etc. The circumstances that led him here are a first, and so is their response. Time will te...

Don't railroad them on one path or another. Give them a balanced collection of interesting tools, thematic and impactful objectives, and let them go to town. Speaking of objectives, I imagine things like stealing research levels, siphoning credits from the vault, collecting a shard from the supermat...

Luke Cox

The mental gymnastics that people are willing to go through to avoid attributing this in any way to Trump is staggering. South Korea is saying point blank "credit to Trump". If you think that the US is going to keep or remove troops in South Korea based on how much their president kisses o...

Brainlet question: What do I do after I run the install script via curl? The ss13 folder is there, but I can't find where Byond installed. Edit: Okay, I checked again and the script stops at "Setting up Windows DLLs". Also, it says that wine-gecko cannot be loaded. I'm using Arch if that ...

Luke Cox

Like I said before, North Korea capitulating is a combination of several factors. The test site incident and other failures in their nuclear program are a big factor for sure. They probably lost a good number of scientists in that, and it's also been rumored that some of the radiation made its way t...
