I go out and interact with strangers all the time, make acquaintances and friends, and when I was interested, even met women to date. I'm autistic, awkward, and have anxiety. If I can do it, most neurotypicals should be able to as well. I think the problem most people have is that they expect things to happen instantaneously. It takes time to build rapport with an individual or group, but consistency is key. You'll often be surprised by the people who look forward to seeing you.
To be clear... you're afraid to talk to people because guns exist? If this is true, you may need to speak to someone about this professionally.
Or the people who are determined to discuss bullshit at length that is completely unrelated while there is an extended line behind them. I'm empathetic if you're lonely, but this isn't the time or place. Take your ass to a bar (you can order food/non-alcoholic drinks if you like), and you can run your mouth to the patrons there. You can also go to parks, live sports, live music, hobbie/enthusiast events, etc. All these events have people you can mingle with, but fucking lines with captive employees and other people tattooed behind you trying to conduct business isn't the place.
Lol, I'm referring to the Mormon belief that native Americans are the descendants of seafaring Jews.
Are you a Mormon?
I'm surprised to see For Honor still going. That was the last game I ever pre-ordered. Even back then, I didn't really pre-order, but the open beta was really good. Unfortunately the broken end game (it has been years, I can't remember the exact mechanic) wasn't revealed in the beta, so after about a week or two I hit that bullshit and it wasn't fun and I never came back. I think I only got 40 hours of total play time, including the campaign. Lesson learned, though.
Oh wow, that is incredibly low.
What hairnet to this young man is unfortunate, and I know the mother is grieving, but the chatbots did not kill her son. Her negligence around the firearm is more to blame, honestly. Regardless, he was unwell, and this was likely going to surface in one way or another. With more time for therapy and no access to a firearm, he may have been here with us today. I do agree, though, that sexual/romantic chatbots are not for minors. They are for adult weirdos.
I won't play forza online anymore, rammers just ruin the entire experience. I understand incidental collisions, but that intential shit just isn't fun. They really need to implement a system that can track intentional ramming and match those people with each other so they are stuck in a rammer hell, and the rest of us can just enjoy the game. Ideally, the system wouldn't be visible and account bound so it will follow you in the sequels. This way way the people who get joy out of ruining things for others are only ruining things for other assholes.
Maybe. Without it, though, the individual would have to build and maintain a site, direct traffic there, and handle payments, as well still do all of the community management and content creation they already do. Now either they'd spend their own time doing this if they have the knowledge, or pay others, which might meet or exceed that 20% depending on their income level.
