Yeesh, adapt or die, such a common term in gaming forums, a phrase that requires no thought. As if making some slight reference to evolutionary theory is all one needs to do when making a post. I guess it saves on thinking though.

I always find "Adapt or Die!" whimsically ironic.

It's telling people to change their thinking and behaviour to a particular way of being.

It's a rigid response to changing circumstances.

It's an inflexible attitude of denial.

It's a way of becoming extinct.

If it doesn't move, shoot it for being lazy.

It's a very legitimate rule and I'm amazed you're ignoring the obvious context Pirate

Adapt or die. Adapt again - die again. Adapt and fail. Fail to adapt. Fail.
Go play World of Tanks. Watch Netflix.

Because everything is changing so fast, you have to die either way, adapting to something doesnt mean you adapt to everything.

What if you adapt?

Well, you still die. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well you could adapt to not die. Would this be the ultimate adaptation?Twisted

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Because at first you won't succeed, biomass that showed you tried.

-just kidding

All deals in local are scams. If you cannot find the scam, you don't know what you are doing.

If a fit is perfect, you made a mistake (30 seconds first Macharial... oops)

Mining stuff is free, your time is only valued by you. Ignore the industrialists that are angry.

GOONs are bad because*

CODE is bad**

The shortest distance between two points is through Amamake... you WILL die!

Ban local so that you don't know what killed you.

Some assembly required. Welcome to the sandbox.

If your method of play gets nerfed, you are literally part of the problem.

*No Goon has ever hurt me.
** Extortion rackets are hard to enforce will over 2500 star systems

As to this day, death seems to be the ultimate adaptation. Only because it allows faster adaptation. Shocked
