This is not the friendly middle aged man you are looking for

Westerado is decent and pretty unique.

I certainly don't do any punching. My weak floppy little arms were made for operating a keyboard.

There's only so much population. Afaik availability of housing isn't particularly a limiting factor for population growth, either, so I don't think this is true. If we all moved into apartments then there would be less land used, no question.

Yes! I can't tell you how many arguments I've had with people who genuinely think that burglars deserve to be shot and killed.

Can you imagine if it did? Such potential for abuse lmao. "Sorry neighbour that I hate, I planted a rare tree on your doorstep, guess you're stuck with it now!"

Depending on where you live you can just go pick them from the ground. Obviously take care and make sure you can ID correctly... But it costs only time.

I would honestly say avoid looking in the mirror when you're having a GOOD trip. You'll be trapped! Trapped I say!

Yes that's what I'm thinking, some modernised physical data storage technique.

Punch cards? Stored correctly there's no reason they couldn't last many human lifetimes. But... Yeah it'll take a while to encode everything.

I would have thought that with modern technology we could come up with something like punch cards but more space/time efficient. Physical storage of data - only one write cycle of course, but extremely durable. Even just the same system as punch cards but using tiny, tiny holes very close together on a roll of paper. Could be punched or read by a machine at high speed (compared to a regular punch card, presumably still Ber slow compared to flash media).

No story needs to be told.
