Labour conditions shouldn’t need regulation, we should just recognise another being’s suffering.
Though if we are going to have governments, they might as well do something useful.

My point is, for about the cost of an easy solution (that, frankly is a lot harder to undo if done wrong) you could equip them to do it right, practice the skill you want to inspire and not plant the false idea that soldering is some difficult thing that the beginner should avoid.
You can get conductive adhesives but it would probably be cheaper to just include a soldering iron in the kit… I’m not sure I would be confident in getting good contact with self adhesive metal tape, your best option there is to probably get a small amount and experiment.
Back in my day we were told that was how you got a virus.
This omission makes me wonder if they mean Tesla specifically or just using it as an euphemism for everything its overlord touches.
2050s for 1st edition, I think current edition is 2070s. Dragons started waking up in the early 2010s though. There has also been significant geopolitical upheaval, especially in the Americas and Europe. The general assumption is that a nuyen being about 1 modern dollar is about the right ballpark.
Shadowrun probably throws these assumptions off a bit. Dunkelzahn’s net worth is hard to pin down but I think the listed cash dispursements in his will exceeded 1 billion nuyen, plus all the real estate and the establishment of several foundations, several items of extreme power and a number of ‘wishes’.
Lofwyr owns a AAA megacorp that he assembled out of purchases made within about 30 years of waking up. My personal he’d cannon is that he ate Musk at some point in this process.
Even the less well known ones have serious stock portfolios and including multiple point shares in megacorps. Dragons took to business rather well as soon as they worked out what share certificates were.
“Greed is not the issue here” - actual dragon sitting on literal pile of gold.
Unfortunately that is more a symptom than a root cause. Even if we could the infection would remain.
But if I don’t have American politics to distract me I have to confront how generally fucked the UK is.
Sounds more like a Yu-Gi-Oh thing…
At least here in the UK there has almost always been a distaste for ‘americanisms’ among the middle-aged and older (conveniently forgetting the ones that entered common use during their youth.) Its largely just snobbery and old man yells at clouds.
It is also less that the states have no culture as they only have low culture. Again, ignoring that most ‘high culture’ is just old, and was low when it was new. Shakespeare wrote for the common folk, Dante’s Inferno was something of a hit piece on everyone he didn’t like. The Rite of Spring was hammered by critics who saw it as barberous to the point of insult and suggested women should not be permitted to see it, should it continue to be performed. The Count of Monte Cristo was serialized not unlike a comic book (and was abridged to not scandalise English speaking audiences.)
You knew it was cursed knowledge when you clicked on it. Caveat Lemmor
Nah, you are thinking of owls.
Imagine making paying someone to make an AI to be your friend and it still hates you. (I presume, given the current state of the right and twitter Grok might not think it is a bad thing.)
Motivated reasoning is a hell of a drug.
It’s kind of implied rather than explicitly taught, and even then only really in certain subjects after those subjects become optional.
The misanthrope in me questions how many of the people in the mobs paid attention in school in the first place. You can’t just hammer stuff into kids heads, you need to inspire them to love learning and I doubt we will be getting that.
Honestly I think a lot of what is held up as AI authored is just written by human hacks. It learned it’s bad writing by reading us.
A pretty nice desk I’m told.
There are also several parties interested in contact details for dumb as hell audience who don’t mind giving money to obvious scammers.
