I remember just 10 or 15 years ago where a father and a son could make and sell old timey spears and the father could quit his job and make decent living.

Literally dont see that happening anytime again.

Games Workshop used to give whacking great big swords to lonely nerds who spent hundreds of hours painting tiny little toy soldiers… or was it for winning games of toy soldiers? Either way I don’t think they hand out swords any more.

On reflection that is probably for the best that they don’t. They do have some nice weapons on display at their head office. Even some movie props used in LOTR. Worth a visit. The restaurant at the visitor centre is busy at lunches on weekends though.

Do you think it might be to do with dangerous weapon legislation? Doesn’t seem entirely safe to let just about anyone manufacture, distribute or buy weapons. Perhaps that is a bit too authoritan of me to think tho?

Walls move at such slow speeds, I am starting to think they don't move at all...

Do you guys have Walls Icecream in the states? It was very popular here.

On summer evenings the Walls icecream vans would crawl around the residential areas playing their jingles to attract the attentions of locals (especially children).

The vans would often have custom paint jobs. The back would often have a reminder for other drivers painted on ‘Mind that child!’.

Is this what you mean about the slow walls? Whats your favourite icecream?

It's just the ice cream man here. Some rascal did make a video of Biden going after one but I can't find it for some reason.

Biden eats ice cream because he's a pedophile and knows kids like to hang out around ice cream.

It's a very real issue that we're lucky we dont have to deal with, the generation that does is going to be fucking so screwed.

Like imagine living in a time where you could build a nuke as easily as that guy who built that exploding winabego a couple Christmases ago.

Imagine 100 years after that when you could build a black hole in your back yard.

Like, just trying to come up with a hypothetical system to manage a society when that type of power is available for any level of intelligence is baffling to me.

The best thing I could come up with, is you force everyone to hop into a matrix recreation of the real universe, and you have them live over and over and over in those universes, undergoing test after test after test, until they are old and wise enough to be able to live in the real universe, where technology is so powerful that basically a baby could blink and half the universe could disappear.
