Sorry but no. There already is a game called "Kickball." You should be able to find it at any elementary school playground.

Sacre Bleu! The martians are destroying the Eiffel Tower!

Well, for one thing, they only came into being as a way to discriminate against certain groups (Jews) . The colleges couldn't toss them on the basis of grades, so they needed something subjective.
Anyway, an essay may be of use when applying to Journalism School, but for the other 375 majors, the ability to expound on one's own person is of marginal value at best.
Look: for years, if not decades, high school junior-year English classes have run drills on essay-writing, with help both from teachers and the kids evaluating each others' work. The more wealthy or less honest have been paying essay mills to produce "quality work."
The fact is that personal essays are bullshit and have nothing whatsoever to do with an applicant's intentions for college (or their capabilities). They should be outlawed. Period.
.... asking for a friend.
Also FBI and CIA building passes.
In this case the "NOT PEER REVIEWED" Asterix is much bigger than the Obelix.
Congrats: you just got whooshed. Clearly you are not a Gaulois.
It doesn't help that several states have enacted a "not-using-utility" tax, or even (Florida!!!) refusing to issue occupancy permits for a house that disconnects from the grid. Fossil-fuel companies encourage aka bribe politicians to make sure going independent is as difficult as possible.
I've beaten several cars.
I mean, shit, there's all sorts of ways to crash games mid-play.
I agree - this last year or so I've found (on Faceblecch) that I have to doomscroll just to find posts from people I know. Far too many ads and "you may be interested in..." junk thrown in the way.
Maybe the airport is actually providing therapy lamas
And nevermind about the putative "3-L lamas"
AI is only going to be as good as the instructions you give it. This is solved by some variant of giving the AI an instruction like "you will be honest and respect the law at all times".
I respectfully suggest you go back and read Asimov's Robot series. All of them; not just I, Robot.
And I bet you'd have put your money into alchemy even as Rutherford published the results of the atomic structure.
The correct analogy is this: yes we have the technology to turn base metals into gold (proton bombardment and so on). The cost of doing so is 100X the value of the gold produced.
"Fusion this decade" has been the mantra since the 70s. We have barely reached wall-plug breakeven.
Well, against the wishes of most Tesla engineers as well as all us other automotive-related techies, Musk removed both radar and sonar from the latest cars. That's pure ego and very very wrong.
Somehow SpaceX has avoided any such blind allegiance to him or to his giant machine-learning algos (that are still not working for Tesla's FSD)
A normal electron is still very small
So is a parallel one
But accelerate that little e- and watch it get even smaller whilst simultaneously getting more massive.
We USAians did the same thing when Reagan called the bird "SR-71" ; the original designation was "RS-71"
Then again, Reagan was a pretty nasty character too.
