In Austin, there was a short period of time where all grocery stores were legally required to ditch plastic bags.

A successful campaign strategy for city council right after that was to run against the plastic bag ban because people kept forgetting their reusable bags. Everybody agreed they are bad but individualism and a sense of laziness prevailed. This is America.

But Trump said tariffs don't impact prices and he's a completely rational and trustworthy person who most certainly understands economics!

I finished it 3 times, so I'd say I'm pretty patient.

As much as I would love for Robin Williams to be back and brightening the world again it would be incredibly selfish of us to forget that he was incredibly unhappy in life and killed himself in a very unpleasant way because of it.

So definitely the centipede.

That tracks, though. If chicken tastes like everything and we are losing things to extinction. Obviously, chicken has less to taste like.

I've beaten the game about 6 times now and while I've certainly encountered minor glitches that made me laugh, I've never had issues that were game breaking at all. And the fire giant included.

I always hear stuff like this but in hundreds of hours of play on both PlayStation 5 and PC. I've never experienced any serious bugs. It's so interesting to me that experiences can vary so much between people.

My issue isn't any particular language but the advocates of various languages treating their language as the best hammer for every nail.

I wake up at noon because I'm depressed and went back to sleep.

An article written for people who do not exist. People who will listen to this article who are in the overlap with people who need to hear it.

You are all mad! The sun is definitely getting oxygen! The giant space bellows hide just out of sight on the precisely opposite side of the sun from earth, so we've never been able to observe them.

Gringolth the oxidation wizard had been pumping them for millions of years. The biggest risk is that he dies before being replaced by an offspring!

It's the info you get from using the mouse to hover over things on the screen.

That patch note is saying they disabled cursor mode in Alt only. They did not disable it in tab. All of the items that appeared on Alt also appear on tab where the cursor is still enabled and you can see extra info by hovering over an object on the screen.

 

I've been playing Final Fantasy 16 for the last couple of weeks and feel really let down by the hype and reviews of this game.

While I enjoy the deviation of the combat the rest of the game feels very incomplete. The vocal animations are frequently off. The travel from area to area is just an overworld map to select travel from one small area to another. There are like 2 or 3 side quests at a time and a whole vendor that will send you to side quests in different areas, but his menu is always empty.

In general, the graphics are roughly the same as FFXIV. The animations and music seem ripped right out of 14 as well. And the combat and akin to the main series Kingdom Hearts games.

Overall I'm enjoying it, but these 7-9 out of 10 reviews that are calling it some massive achievement seem really undeserved.
