One Hour One Life Forums

Years can pass by but some people remain as charming as ever...

It has been lovely reading all your stories. I don't exactly remember my hook but it was probably the pain of chosing who among my babies was going to live and who was going to starve. We didn't had enough food to feed all, because I was a noob, so I had to randomly chose a baby and watch as my other kid slowly starved, crying for food, pleading for a chance to live. It stayed with me for a while.

Not long after that I had the most beautiful life I had ever had. I was a blond boy in a small town that had a single rectangular building (castle style) with several rooms serving as kitchen, nursery, fire wood storage, and so on. The last two were left unfinished. One was a small cementary and the other appeared to be intended for a garden, as it had some tilted soil. So I decided that finishing the garden was going to be my life project. Soon after, a girl a few years younger than me approached. She asked me about what I was doing and seemed genuinely interested on the garden. We promised to marry when older before I set out to the wilderness to get some rocks for the flooring while she gathered some seeds and tree cuttlings to plant.

I was a bit absorved on my work at hand but at some point realized that I wanted to spend more time with her. Therefore decided the amount of rocks I had gathered would had to suffice. It was the best decision I had ever made in OHOL. She planted some cuttlings but had already forgoten about the garden so by the time I arrived we rekindled our connection and married young. We soon has a son, and while I worked in the garden, she raised him with the rest of the family, which was really close given we were all inside the same building basically. When she returned we reconected again. She laughed at my dumb jokes and trully was a ray of sunshine. Our time together was so great that when she spontaneously expressed her love for me I genuinely felt the happiness that my balding man of a character must have felt.

And thus we grew old together, hurring to finish our garden before our time was over, yet always taking the time to remind the other we were there, together, and mostly just joking around. We finished with some extra time to enjoy the product of our work. The garden grew beautifully, our son was a grown man. While we were chatting and tidying the cementary, I finally became an elderly man, before her. Real sadness engulfed our hearts so I stoped all the work and we spend the rest of out time dancing in the cementary. Both the garden and the graves were the most beautiful part of the town, and althoug not perfect, our family enjoyed spending time there. It was prove we lived there and loved eachother. I died after a final goodbye, surrounded by family, friends and the love of my life.

You know how most of the time in OHOL you either focus entirely on a task you may or may not finish, or on roleplaying, without achieving much of your life at the end. Both can sometimes feel rather unsatisfactory. That life for me was just perfect, the perfect balance between work, purpose, connection. It made me think that if I were to live such a life irl I could die without regrets.

I am ok with most trolling and some griefing, and my convarsation with Villanelle was not terrible, but the ban is definitely good ridance for the discord. Way too conflictive even by OHOL standars. Playing with Villanelle inside the game wasn't a good experience either. You've got issues my friend. Bye bye.

Got 18 :S It was fun and now I know more!

You are right. Please, don't endanger your mental health and well being. You have no obligation to help the person hurting you, especially with something as delicate as mental health. Leave that to professionals. It can be pretty emotionally draining. If you think it is affecting you, getting away is the best option. Remember that it is just a game, and people being like being assholes online. Don't take it personal and move on. Time is short, better do something that bring you joy

Some people dont know that, or don't believe it even if you tell them... for some weird reason. I guess there have been so many changes that people who don't keep with the updates get confused.

I really dislike mouse controls. Moving around is so bad, always clicking over trees and grabbing unwanted stuff. I didn't realized how bad it was until using WASD. I also love the shortcuts E, B and shift Q.

Not gonna lie thou, I still prefer left and right click for some tasks. Shift and Ctrl WASD/space to take stuff takes time to adjust.

One of them was my boyfriend I had been trying to get him to play OHOL with me for a long time. We twined and made a mexican restaurant together. He never played again lol. He said it was a nice game thou.

It does to me. An hour goes by fast, before I know it I haven't moved for like 6 hours.

Well, you are not wrong.

mmm still, you seem to have little trust in scientist. Justified, just think it this way. Imagine everyone in this forum trend is a scientist. All with different knowledge and different data they have collected over the years and measured themselves. Like this forum, teams of scientist are just normal people that come different universities, from different countries, with different values and ideas all working together in a huge mess. Things are not always pretty.

All the time you see people getting publishing contradictory results because that is just what they get. Then a recopilatory paper reference both saying something like: "This person found this, but this other person found nothing, se we think that..." So little by little knew knowledge is created. Then that knowledge is teached in the classroom for like 3 years until it gets scraped by some new info just found that changes the idea completly.

Imagine how frustrating it gets when you try to make some rules to explain something complex, try to present it with your collegues but your ideas doesn't fit perfectly. That is when everyone brainstorm. 

Something similar with those models you are showing. Models are just a representation of reality, they will never be reality, they will never be perfect. They can only approach reality, and how they do it depends on the prediction system they build with the resources they have in hand, and the quality of the data. You could have the best model ever but if you enter shit data you will get shit results. More importantly, people make predictions but the most important part of their work is not the prediction but THE WAY THEY DID the prediction, the formula, the statistics. That is what will allow the people in the future to improve into their work. The fact that media likes to make those predictions seem like the absolute truth is just to get some reactions for the public. Somethimes even the scientist themselves will sensationalize their findings that way for support and resources so.. yeah.

Yet, more than everything, we are talking about the weather here, to model THE fricking WEATHER! We can barely have a good weather forecast for next week. You are right, they make mistakes and don't really know, that's the idea the entire scientific method is based on. Be sceptical, but keep in mind not everything is false, it is just people like you and me trying to figure things out, with a lot of years of practice. To know what is truth and what might be wrong you need to learn how things work first. The modeling, the methods, why they exist and so on.

Well, thanks for reading my rant. This is just my opinion anyway, don't take it seriously. See ya.

Yes Dodge, you are right but that's is not the problem. The planet is going to be fine as you say, but releasing stored CO2 to the atmosfere in a small time frame changes the climate. Us the people that live on it (and the animals and plants) will get affected and many will suffer. Especially the poor and vulnerable, and the ones that depend on seasonal rains, and the ones that live close to the coast, you get the idea. It is a small change in temperature for the earth in retrospect yes, but for us those changes come with a lot of "short-term" repercussions. But yeah,I guess it doesn't matter if you don't care about most people and are wealthy enough that such changes are only inconveniences.

That aside, this man-made global warming started like 200 year ago, right? Such a large time frame wouldn’t mean much for us... Anyway, I found this graph quite similar to yours. It comes from a non-peer- reviewed paper from 2019, so take it with a grain of salt. I also don't really recognize the journal but the model looks pretty well made. GCMET is the model they created and used for the simulations. Just though you would appreciate more recent data to update your sources. Take a look.

Figure 3: (a) Global mean temperature for the last 2 Ma as predicted by GCMET based on different CO2records in comparison with a proxy-based global mean temperature reconstruction [17].  Furthermore, the time series from the 72 HadCM3 snapshots for the last 120 ka have also been added. Note the changein the spacing of the time axis at 800 ka and 140 ka BP.

This is the paper, it is open source. Dodge, I am sure a well-educated fellow like you would love to give it a read to later point out your observations about it. See ya.

Pd. Sry if my English is weird, I am not a native speaker.

So short answer, Yes... it is. Lol
