So, I got shot twice in the left arm.

By my doctor.

Apparently that is supposed to make me immune to meningitis?

[Frumple]

... I kinda question how bad that fall must of been to mess up your foot that bad. I've taken less damage falling off of a roof.

Just a bad fall, mostly. Wasn't from any height, just fell over. Hard to land decently when most of your motor control is going haywire. Have been hurt less slamming head first into a concrete floor, heh.

Uhh, Gunner? Did you end up taking any damage falling off the roof?

[Gunner-Chan]

Uhh, Gunner? Did you end up taking any damage falling off the roof?

Uh... Which time? There's been quite a few, I'm a bit clumsy.

I think the worst was getting a couple of cuts on my leg but that's because I sorta fell on a shelf.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

From what you've described you're borderline invincible, so this is probably not a great baseline.

[Gunner-Chan]

Well that's true, I just guess it's that alien to me.

Not sure I want to know how that happened. 


Anyway, WTF of the day is some guy saying he's going to turn a fledgeling RTD into a cheap (but, you know, actually priced) ebook. Pretty sure he's the same person who tried to charge people to play a mediocre FG a while back, too.

Really not sure what to make of that. I mean, I can think of about twenty... I don't know, saner ways to make money right off the top of my head.

Remind me again, how did you lose your eye? ...Or did I imagine that you only had one functioning eye.

[Egan_BW]

Gunner already has an eyepatch and thus has gained the tough as nails trait, rendering her immune to any additional damage.

[Gunner-Chan]

Remind me again, how did you lose your eye? ...Or did I imagine that you only had one functioning eye.

I lost it to head trauma, heh. Somehow a clot choked it to death following a yard work accident involving a tree and my head. It barely worked before that though so it wasn't much of a loss.

[KingofstarrySkies]

We should invest in a cybernetic eye program, to give Gunner-chan depth perception once again.

[Egan_BW]

But the eye has to still look like an eyepatch.
TBH depth perception never seemed that useful to me though.

[Frumple]

Eeehhh, they're already working on it. First working prototypes were... sometime recent-ish? Within the last five or ten years. Though more funding probably wouldn't exactly hurt the progress, particularly on the affordability front.

[Eric Blank]

That's not a bad idea.

Now how many millions of dollars do you think we can raise for R&D?

But the eye has to still look like an eyepatch.

Sure as hell hasn't helped my aim when trying to throw something.

[ChairmanPoo]

Eeehhh, they're already working on it. First working prototypes were... sometime recent-ish? Within the last five or ten years.

There has been stuff in this direction since the mid nineties I think. Nothing commercial yet though
