When my wife was diagnosed with cancer and eventually went into remission, I didn’t really process what was happening at first. I was completely focused on getting her through it. The grief hit me later. What helped me more than anything was going out into the garden and digging. I made sure to do it safely, since I know it can be risky, so I dug wide and with wooden supports, but there was something about just diggi…
At this point we have too much free time on our hands x_x
Great content for the upcoming drone wars and the inevitable tunnels that will be built for troop and matériel movements
What makes you think a tunnel would be safe? Just need to re-purpose this little guy: https://blog.sintef.com/digital-en/inachus-project-robot-sea...

a network of tunnels and sensors is easier to defend than a open space exposed position where drones can see you from miles away, I guess that makes tunnels better for defense
Makes me think the noble houses of Westeros should have dug tunnels to foil the Targaryen dragon advantage.

I don't think any fixed installation is particularly easy to defend?
Also, I'll grant that a drone can see you from miles away, but don't you think any one of a large and growing number of satellites can spot your massive earthworks from tens and hundreds of miles away for the months or years it takes you to construct?
I can’t wait till world models are good enough that you can ask robots to work autonomously to geo transform spaces.

> Basically nobody ever died from leaky pipes I know you're probably intending to only remark on leaky water pipes, but: The New London School explosion was caused by a leaky pipe. It killed 295 students and teachers, and led to the inclusion of smelly thiol in natural gas, as well as the Texas Engineering Practice Act. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_London_School_explosion
Even leaky water pipes kill people - just google Legionnaires disease.
A dehumidifier (or an HVAC system, which is where the name of the disease came from) is more likely to give you legionnaires disease than even the most substandard plumbing.

google ai estimates that 4.7 billion hours have been spent in minecraft. At least these are real :)
Which is rounded well out beyond significant figures (as we've only got the one in 7 billion people). Rounded, we've spent effectively no time on minecraft.
Sounds about right?
eta: that's 4.51 of every million seconds
