A lot of mmorpgs focus on endgame content to keep customers coming back. Some do a lot of work on new game experience to recruit people.

I wonder if any ever focused on, like, "midgame content"? What would that even look like?

That's always bugged me too. I don't know what else they could do but give them better equipment and smarter AI or whatever but then the problem is they get a lobotomy when I control them now lol

Just found out Hasan means handsome or good looking. Considering the only person I know of who's named Hasan, yeah that follows hasan-ok-dude

Probably a shitty combo of the daiichi discharge with climate change warming waters and fucking up marine ecosystems. In a healthier ecosystem the fishery mightve been more resilient but having both happen probably means the animals and plants that live there can't handle perturbations and any small change in pollution anymore.

There's a shop in Montreal called Noël Eternel (basically Christmas forever). It sells Christmas decor and knick knacks all year round - except on Christmas Day when it sells Halloween stuff lol

Oh yeah and people give nurses stuff all the time. We've got chocolate, cards, I got a t shirt once. It's all lovely and appreciated. It is unethical to accept gifts over a certain dollar amount, I think $100. We usually redirect them to donate to the hospital foundation, or return precious items to family (like jewelry). Its normal human nature to want to show appreciation to people who cared for you and some people feel they can only show it by giving gifts.

The clients thing was in nursing school too, the older guard thought "patient" implied too much power dynamics over the person in question. I didn't get that literally at all, none of my classmates did, none of my coworkers do - unless you're over 55 and in academia and haven't been a floor nurse in over a decade. The profs insisted client was a better term because it leveled the implied hierarchy - but all of us thought it was gross because it's a business term.

There's a lot of theorems that rely on the Riemann hypothesis being true but I guess it could still be true (even unproven) if you could generate primes, unless one of them wasnt on the critical line I suppose. I'm struggling to think of what else besides passwords and secure communication would break, hmm.
