No I got it from a monk in the 70’s that self-immolated as the most extreme form of nonviolent protest, that was a precursor to the Vietnam war

I was in a number of nonviolent demonstrations in my wonderfully misspent youth. Nothing was harmed. Occasionally we were arrested anyway.

He wasn't the only one though. A women set herself on fire last December -for the same cause- in Atlanta (dunno if she survived).

"Extreme form of peaceful protest" is probably more accurate than nonviolent, not sure what you guys called it in the 70's to signify it from normal violent rioting/protesting harming people. Not something you see discussed as often outside the 1900's.

Not something you see discussed as often outside the 1900's. Mostly it wasn't a riot until the police showed up and started busting heads. Its rather like those "race riots" before the '60s where they never mentioned that it was the Caucasians who were doing the rioting.
We had the pentagon surrounded. No one was hurt, we didn't levitate it, the MPs were a LOT more professional than any cops I ever saw at demonstrations.

New Palworld patch: https://www.escapistmagazine.com/all-patch-notes-for-palworld-update-patch-v0-1-5-0/
On paper, seems to fix a lot of issues i also noticed. But im still seeing Pals ignoring their work. Also, there is this annoying bug when I hold the Pal in the base.
The most game breaking change I saw was the nerf of nail price. That kinda reminds so many nerfs in FFXI NPC prices.
EDIT: the bail went from 160 to 20 a Piece.
So many videos telling the fastest way to earn money was doing ore -> ingot -> nails.
Now its gone!

It's like if Draylo set himself on fire demanding a new expansion with chemist and time mage and no ffxi players knew about it.

but remember the effort, thats a good start.

Good lord, if he did that imagine all the toxic fumes from melting figurines! They'd have to close a 4 block radius in Manhattan!

Unexpected fix in Palworld version 1.5.1 due to weird fixed breeding passive skill.
Somehow I managed to get a free Earth Emperor with my infant Anubis without needing to beat alpha version.
It was a bothersome bug, but if they fixed it in a day, it ended being a very nice bonus reward.

Again the power here at home went off and shut my desktop that have been running my current Palworld world.
And like the first time, it corrupted the file, and my world went poof in the game menu.
This time i would be pissed. This is my fifth time ive been restarting to polish my game, and the current one i finally went back to default configuration.
Luckly before i restart, i decided to check if the internet could save. And turns out the very first result in google was a well explained guide to recover corrupted game, that simply nailed the entire stuff, and my current world went back to life.
Ive been playing kinda too much of it, so i want to finally get this done by the weekend.

They have an unedited version online, its 30 mins.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
