From a scale of 1 to 10, how good is my English? I've been learning since I was 3.

Tantrum, then go berserk and kill half of the fort.

WWUD if he was a goblin?

Yeah, I could enforce internet freedom. But then again, it's a free ticket for millions of dollars. Money, dear boy.

But your opinion is your opinion. That's what this thread is about, what you would do with X superpower.
Which is precisely what I'm getting at - you get X superpower, why chase after money of all things? It's the least compelling motive where extraordinary capabilities are concerned. The question is fundamentally asking what would you do if certain or all material constraints upon your will were removed overnight. Chasing after a material leverage for a constraint which does not affect you precludes the next inevitable question, what will you do when you have your desired sum of cash and that self-imposed constraint is gone?
After obliterating 4chan and securing a job as a Google online content policier?

Vigilantry. Go into forums and banhammer anyone who breaks the forum rules, then disappear. Bust cybercrime. Forcibly clean up forums. Maybe rename trolls' accounts to "PenisDick2010". That's what I would do. Basically, goof off.

As I said, I'd tell the Google management about my powers and offer to work on retrieving information for them for a lot of money. While anonymously taking a look at their databases (I want to see how that stuff works).

Did you ignore my argument? I would find it enjoyable to play in a bigoted world.

And (at least) I would find it also enjoyable to change the world for better or for worse, even if it takes many years. And I would find those stories interesting. I'm pretty sure that at least half of the DF fandom would.

Oh, and: I would not want to actually live in an oppressive world. Looks like you misunderstood my argument.

Dear UristMcWoodcutter,

Why did you stand under the elf caravan flyswatter? That corpse is unsightly, you know.

Sincerely,
The Overseer of Faceplant

I'm was gonna make a marionette joke, but I'm very suspicious that was what you just did.
Now I get it. Huh.

Sure, it's just the thing is that we need biodiversity for a lot of our human lives to function.

See bees, for example.
Unless I'm mistaken, bees are not on the verge of extinction.

Except we don't want to use too much arable land because of biodiversity and stuff and also wood production.

We'll see how much people will care about biodiversity when humanity starts becoming actually desperate.
Yeah, the survival of mankind in an emergency is more important than the survival of other species (but we are not currently in an emergency).

What's that? Does it, like, spawn stuff as if the player is on a quest and fulfilling objectives?
It's to build a fortress easily and adventure through it later, I think. Spawning stuff is impossible.

This is relatively civil compared to my previous arguments with GC. And he started it.

1589
Either way, this is completely irrelevant to the thread. Just let us finish this argument. If you do not want to participate, don't post here. It's simple as that.

Yandex Browser got a UI update. Neat, but it has a small refresh button. It's annoying.

Is that some sort of yandere simulator/pokemon crossover
If only. It's a clone of Chrome.
Everything is chrome in the future!
Google Cloning will be an actual service by 2030.
