..”the ability to entertain a thought without accepting it" -Aristotle

Then there's Teddy Roosevelt with his 3rd party
Dunno who made this image but it's cool.
Imagine if hospitals ran like politics

Cardiology - Surgeons - Neurology
Choose 1 team
But of course instead they recognize each others value... mostly.
They also have at least a basic understanding of other fields... & when they do or aren't in their element.

No one ever says, let's do away with nutritionists.
Ultimately it's about maximizing the long term health probability of the nation or the patient.

@ARCRaidersGame You want PVE only players in PVP?
The Division & WoW had a PVP zone.

You want PVE only players in?
Vastly increase the rewards... esp if they don't PVP often.

@ARCRaidersGame This is a really interesting fix -

@michaelmalice Malice would be the most fun high school teacher for the scientific method - from aristotle to 1984 & going back to the world of Aristotle again... & how the latter is far less likely or easy

Another question is should there be dedicated FSD Ambulances?
Equipped with defibs, insulin, inhalers, etc that automatically open car doors & administer first aid till the real ambulances arrive.

Personal cant man every corner of every zip code… but robots can
Every second counts for first responders

[Fitzgerald @AthenasAqueduct]

I wonder if theres an ambulance mode for seinors… or a 911 function… say if someones gravely wounded or about to pass out

Says its rush hour or hospital ambulances are all occupied.

The nearest FSD tesla/waymo in a remote rural area will come get you.
Each tesla emits the equivalent of a ambulance light/siren

For tornados, earthquakes, floods, avalanches, hurricanes… these cars can operate without endangering rescuers in dangerous locations.
GPS will automatically avoid closed roads

Just Food for thought

[Fitzgerald @AthenasAqueduct]

@elonmusk If you combine that with remote control first aid arms controlled by actual doctors who cant be there… just an idea

Its not like FSD EVs dont have the 24/7 internet & battery capacity

@elonmusk @tetsuoai The funniest take on the dark forest part of fermi paradox… is a keel & peele skit

So much comedy potential

@hubermanlab Taking people constantly out of context is why we don't have more honest leaders.
Good on Huberman for providing a painstakingly through & still accurate service that the average person can understand & actually use easily.
Esp. w/ the cost of healthcare these days

@is_OwenLewis Picards Flute seems appropriate - RIP https://t.co/NIody23Hv8

PVE or PVP is a false ultimatum
Also Many PVE only players will not return to the PVP servers as it is.
Helldivers/Horde/MMO Raids mode have been successful for decades for a reason.

Needs a PVP Team/sqd deathmatch mode... people prob want to practice PVP before they risk losing a weeks worth of loot to a gray loot aka freeloadout guy campin the exfil door all game.

Maybe dueling system like in WoW to gamble for loot one another has... from maybe a matriarch or frigate the server took down together
Or just dueling w/out losing the pve players & put into pvp servers

Casual PVE players want PVP... just not as it is...
think most would prefer not losing the pve servers just by trying out PVP.
Games like wardogs or BF? You can respawn & have just as much if not more fun w/out losing a weeks worth of loot from some dark pixel camper
The FPS PVP market as we know is reallllllly competitive

A dueling system for loot after working together to to PVE down a boss could be a fun compromise... vs cheapshot campers or other fights that are over before they begin.

The incentive structure is for free-loadout guys to camp exfil... taking great loot ruining PVP.
Dont forget about about the average player, like dad/moms tired after a 8 hour work day w/out lightning reflexes & prob won't see a small pixel in the corner of the screen about to take all their loot...

That kinda of average player is not going to use smoke grenades & tags or flanking on exfil campers aka rats...
Because most players will not & will never be as hardcore as Tarkov players... thats a huge part of ARC's appeal while still being

But who knows... embark prob has alot of different PVP ideas to entice the PVE guys over the next 8 years.
Curious to see what they are.

Of course, most "sci-fi" is dark dystospianism because its far easier to destroy than to build... its hard to make something believable like star trek... which is why its sad to see it get unnecessarily darker & constantly on the edge of collapse... which makes you wonder how that universe exists at all...

Everything has to be world ending... blah blah blah, Insert x savior complex...
Insert x idealogy...
Insert x current trendy dystopianism

All of which will age poorly.
But star trek as an idea lives on 70 years later

[Fitzgerald @AthenasAqueduct]

@Vechs which is quite odd because the characters realism is derived from the worlds consistency... Tolkeins like... ehh maybe ill add the hobbit & lotr to this 3 aged world thats 10k years old.

[Fitzgerald @AthenasAqueduct]

@esaagar Perhaps this is correct.
Tech is like drugs.
What matters more is whether a doctor or a drug dealer is administering it.
If you arent aware of how x thing affects you…
Maybe its not a good idea

Just a reminder about something I said a few years back: “addiction is a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure.” “Enlightenment (for lack of a better term) is a progressive expansion of what brings your pleasure.”
Are you addicted to something? If so, what?
