US population projections shrink because of declining birth rates, less immigration
  • ...because western economies are built upon larger young generations paying smaller old generations for the privilege of participation; take away its buttressing and that "stable" economic pyramid becomes a rickety tower...

    ...you can prop up the generational productivity deficit with industrial automation to some extent, but only if the benefits of automation are democratised rather than hegemonised, otherwise a smaller-and-smaller oligarchy instead dominates an increasingly-marginalised peasantry until the whole thing comes crashing down...

    ...when life becomes cheap, it will be spent cheaply...

    ...i almost bought a used 9000 in '99; ended up buying a turbobeetle instead which was unfortunately a disposable piece of junk...

  • Government Monitoring Those With "Negative" Views of Health Insurance Companies
  • ...well let me say here for whoever in the FBI / DOJ might be monitoring: the health insurance industry is a pox on american civilisation and stochastic remediation is the inevitable manifestation of celebrated principles of the declaration of independence...

    Dominate Person - Indefinite Duration

    ...how would you characterise dominate person cast with indefinite duration?..

    ...upcasting dominate person at eighth level can maintain up to eight hours with concentration, so i'd be inclined to consider twenty-four hours duration equivalent to a ninth-level spell, but perhaps i'm under-gauging the difference in power between eighth and ninth-level spells?..

    ...regardless, in this particular case it was cast with indefinite duration plus disadvantage on the saving throw against a hostile player character, which i'd like to translate into mechanical terms: maybe a ninth-level casting with heightened metamagic plus silvery barbs?..

    ...i'm playing with a DM who has a poor grasp of fifth-edition's mechanical balance and i'd like to help him understand just how adversarial his homebrew and houserule tendencies are leaning, especially for early tier-two gameplay...
