They were in the hallways, not out on the street. I didn't look for any cameras, but there wasn't any security nearby that would've seen anyone vandalize them. If there were cameras, I can't imagine it mean much to people wearing a mask.

I'm not saying vandalism isn't more common in the US, I'm sure it is in compared to hyper-respectful Japan, but I don't think it's absolutely impossible to have these.

Glad you enjoyed it ^^

I'm familiar with that mechanic of the android being different every playthrough in the actual Bladerunner PC game, but I've never heard of that being the case in Snatcher, I always thought it played out the same way no matter what.

When I visited california, there was a mall with multiple vending machines like the one in the OP for various foods and icecreams.

Nearly ended him too. He got shot in the neck, but survived. When he was discharged from the hospital, he intended to head back to the front, but he received word from his wife that the Communists had turned on the Anarchists and Trotskyist, and were rounding people up to be executed. He and his wife narrowly escaped the country with their lives.

Shit was hardcore!

Added! :)

Though I should mention Freetube is available for Android as well, and libredirect should work with it, eliminating the need to manually copy and paste links.

Perhaps RPG's with a party, like Mass Effect, Baldurs Gate 3, Fallout New Vegas (many companions with their own stories to find and tag along), Star Wars: knights of the old republic, dragon age.

Some shooters like the later Band of Brothers games, valkyria chronicles or the Mafia series you may enjoy as well.

In Indiana Jones and The Fate of Atlantis, there are multiple paths to choose to complete the game, and one option is to choose a fun companion come with you to help you throughout.

You're absolutely right, and I don't mean to imply it's just a matter of the law being there, and the rest will be easy. The deck will forever be stacked against those most vulnerable.

But it does show it's not a hopeless inevitability, and I think most people just assume it is. We have the tools to fight back, even though it will be hard fought.

Ha, cool! Hope you enjoy it 😄

From what I've been able to find in my short time researching this, many states allow tenets to withhold rent from their landlord if the landlord fails to make a rental habitable.

There are a couple options here.

1. You simply stop paying rent entirely. In some states, a failure to make a home habitable is grounds for a tenet to prematurely terminate their lease. The landlord can still try to evict you, but this is often a drawn out process, and the entire time the property will be burning a hole in their pocket. This is ultimately a gamble that the property owner will choose to repair the property as the most cost-effective solution, and to avoid potentially being sued for uninhabitable conditions (but that assumes the tenants can collectively afford to sue them). Also, the tenets could appeal the eviction, citing the uninhabitable conditions to a judge, and hope that the Judge sides with them and negates the eviction despite the lack of paid rent.

2. You and your fellow tenets continue to make rent payments to a court, a neutral third party, or an escrow account set up by a local court or housing agency, which withholds payment from the landlord until the repairs are accomplished.. This is legal in many states, which would make the rent strike legally protected, and make an eviction attempt null (as far as I can tell, I'm not a lawyer!)

Oh man, I adore the tripods, so I'll be giving that a read for sure. Cheers for sharing!

The only Philip K. Dick I've read is Flow my tears the policeman said (epic title for a book). It's pretty linear and coherent until one point towards the end where, without question, 'ol Dick popped some acid.

The Book of Rack the Healer by Zach Hughes was pretty wild.

It's 'New wave' sci-fi from the 1970's, and revolves around these mutated humans in a deeply poisonous and radioactive world where it's forbidden to dig into the earth.

The humans have evolved a carapice and internal air sacks that they fill to hold their breath before leaving their safe organic dome homes that change color depending on their mood. Some of the domes have women in them that don't seem capable of complex thought, and live purely through sensory input, are telepathic, and are basically constantly edging themselves all day.

It's a drug fueled fever dream, for sure.
