TheMetaleek

So the thing is, like other commenters have said, you're asking metaphysics things through the prism of science, which does not work because by nature, science uses the (mostly) objective scientific method, while metaphysics is based on subjective assessments.

You have to separate the physical, material universe as being in the domain of what can be known, from the rest, which can not be, and never will. This does not mean it doesn't exist, just that it can never be studied or proved in any way, so anyone can believe what they wish about it without leaving rationality (as long as the belief does not imply things concerning the material universe)

Thank you for taking the time to go in detail and provide resources! I'll probably get it based on your advice :)

I play a lot of sci fi themed sessions, would you still recommend for this use case?

I have several suggestions, with different overall vibes, but that I think still relate to this itch.

First of all, my timewaster at the moment is Balatro. Not original, but fills the niche of a game you can hop on and off as needed, no need for quick reflexes, but still a sense of having to play and engage, with long term progression.

There was a time when Potion craft was the scratcher of this cozy niche. Very cool artstyle and music, no time constraints gameplay, and again a meaningful sense of progression with a very low bar for entry.

Perhaps not the best fit for your question, but I'll still say it so you can try, Return of the obra dinn. It's not cosy, but fits the criteria of something you can play with rather minimal "gamer experience" while enjoying it to the fullest. It's an incredible investigation game where you uncover a superb and compelling story, at your own pace. Again, very characteristic artstyle, and one of my all time favorite music.

It would be a crime to answer a cozy game suggestion without mentioning Stardew Valley, however I think it's going a bit against the non-gamer thing. Still, very nice game!

Another suggestion could be Powerwash simulator, very "brains off" kind of gameplay, very simple even for a non gamer (actually tried with a very not gamer family member), and sooo satisfying!

You may also like things like Poly bridge and other puzzle games, but I haven't really played these so I can't personally say.

I hope you find at least one thing you like here, and I'll add some if I think of more

This community is related to basically anything negative regarding cars. As such road rage is very much qualified, as it's a very much car-induced problem, both directly (as in people in cars are implicated) and more indirectly (as in car-first infrastructure is bad for everybody involved, including cars, and pushes for this sort of things to keep happening)

It should, but the point I think you're missing is that, even in this VERY light version purposefully calculated so that those ultra rich households still increase in wealth with the tax, just a little slower, it was heavily criticized in virtually every media, and still was not voted by the lawmakers. Something more drastic than this as you and a lot suggest would not even have a chance at being discussed on...

If I recall correctly, the main problem with nitrogen execution (apart from the death penalty itself) is that they do it very badly, as in they don't vent the CO2 gas, and the inmate painfully suffocates

On s'est fait un one-shot sur Mothership hier, super sympa comme généralement ! J'avais choisi un scenar plus prompt à la confrontation que d'habitude où l'ambiance tient plutôt du survival horror, mais ça a bien pris. Mention speciale à la fin, les joueu.r.se.s décident de trahir leur employeur et de se barrer sans finir la mission en volant la navette qui les a amené, et se font immédiatement exploser par les pilotes de celle-ci, qui monitoraient leur flux bodycam (ils en étaient informés, et avaient bien vite oublié).

Bref, super session qui me hype pour la campagne qu'on commencera prochainement !

Depends on the scale. Really tiny microorganism living in the air do not fly, as in they have no active mecanism to physically interact with their environment to move in any way. They just follow the air currents at seemingly random (the exact word is brownian), kinf of like particles of dust that you see in a ray of light. It is not defined as flying and not studied as such

Yeah I understood after, hence my very fast edit to add the last sentence about flies existing only from around 245 my
