It would make sense to do hair first… but I think the reason I generally do it last is because while I’m waiting on the water/body acclimation, I’m already slathering with soap and as a result, hair care is pushed to the back as a result.

Saw Seattle, didn’t think further.

Based on the voting districts alone, those areas aren’t the least populated in the state, but they’re also definitely not cities.

Since those areas also don’t have hiking trails unlike a huge swath of the state, I’m going guess the terrain along the coast there is not easily traverseable.

I’m not an expert in any way, but I know of one way to take a grenade apart.

Though I would think there are less explosive methods that likely take specialized tools, much like disassembling bullets from their casings.

I’m up for an enthusiastic sweeping before the game so we don’t slip on pine needles.

You were also an enjoyer of the clickbaity “money tree” back in the day? Each pixel was a link to something (it was ads, it was entirely ads), but you might could win $10,000 or so it claimed.

Also I was using a 14.4 modem well after 56k and dsl/broadband were introduced and available to everyday consumers. Every webpage took a few minutes to load in for me in those days. It wasn’t until a bit after 2003 that I finally caught up with the times… it’s kind of amazing to think that my ping was manageable in Aliens vs Predator 2, and the first Call of Duty.

I feel obligated to point out that while the label fits, it shouldn’t be a defining personality point.

People often get caught with labels they put there themselves or they were given by others. It’s important to be separate enough from them that you are not constrained by them. If they care enough about finding a label to fit for now, I hope they will continue checking in with themselves on occasion to check if the label still fits.

Much like the feeling of ‘if people are going to call me a villain, I might as well be a villain’. It happens (sometimes quite subtly) for most labels people choose to live by.

I would imagine that the replicators do make the exact same thing every time. The same texture, ripeness, distribution of toppings, etc. each and every time. So wanting the ‘real’ thing may be part placebo, and part wanting to experience the random imperfections of a natural product.

Could someone with enough time and effort make the replicator able to create slight variations on the food that wouldn’t unintentionally poison people? Sure. However it seems like the replicator is used as a future MRE and that natural food is genuinely preferred by most people in that universe.

The first known things pirated looks to have been software at some point in the 70’s.

Most music and video files were so large that actively sharing them back then wasn’t feasible for most people, though I’m sure many made it work even in those slow times. I remember the days of watching images load in one pixel layer at a time.

Napster was the first real breakout application specifically for getting pirated media, but people were definitely sharing movies, music, and anything else digital over IRC well before Napster popped into existence.

Based on information provided, aroace is a functional descriptor.

That being said early teens is a highly transformational time for people. Some change would not be unexpected.

I start out facing away while I test the water on my not so delicate skin until I acclimate, or make whatever adjustments needed. Then I alternate depending on where I’m washing. I tend to handle my hair last, which always leads to a cascade of shampoo and conditioner foam down in all the crevices which then need to be rinsed again.

I read the article and I don’t quite see the line they took to get that gamers are the target applicants they want…

Was it just the ability to sit in a chair and watch a screen for 8+ hours a day?

Was it the outliers like those half dozen people who have platinum’d crimson desert already?

The people who play rage bait being able to handle without cracking under direct pressure?

Xsplit is a video mixer, which has been kind of shut out by the free and accessible OBS that most streamers use these days. I haven’t looked in on it in so long that I have no idea what they could possibly be bringing to the table for their subscription based service that the free options aren’t already doing.

tom segura on the topic

I loved the first one, and it felt like they really hit their stride by the time they finished up all the dlc… And then the second one came out, and while some aspects (bosses, story) were overall better, nearly every other metric I cared about either stagnated for declined. It served as an alert that the devs weren’t interested in the same things I am and got me to boycott gearbox for a decent chunk of time. I eventually decided to try them out again once they had a massive bundle and discount on most of their borderlands games, as well as the tell tale games.

After playing through 3 and some of the dlcs, it feels like they’re just going through the motions at this point. It might as well be a more cartoony call of duty.

I will continue to wait for deep sales on the full products if I feel like they’re worth my time.

Spotify specific:

Use the free service to listen to new stuff in order to find groups you like. For the sub cost you can buy an album per month and have it forever. I work in areas that don’t have great data connections, so having a local copy keeps the jams going without interruption or ads.

I just don’t finish most open world games. I go out, explore, find my own story, and enjoy. Nothing wrong with it.

I’m glad I understood after going through a good amount of schooling and having crap retail jobs that an office job was not right for me. While I believe I missed the mark slightly with construction carpenter. I’m pretty happy with my day to day.

Yes I do, though I have the distinct advantage of not living in the same place for more than 5 years as I was growing. Now I’ve settled.

I don’t think every single game needs whatever innovation creative directors like to talk about means.

Pod racer as a franchise will do well as long as it has:

• customization
• good visuals that span the star wars universes diverse locations
• immersive sound design
• easter eggs/lore stuff in the levels
• reactive controls that aren’t bogged down by superfluous alternate systems
• some way to mess with the other racers that isn’t actual weaponry
• courses with plenty of alternate paths and potential interactibles, which may or may not be environmental hazards

and I hope they get away from the known racers. Yes, I know the episode 1 racers are iconic. Please don’t make them the entire actual cast. They can maybe show up as special guests, secret ghosts, or course bosses.

I’d like to see a method of “aiming” the engines, which could be like a fine control for cornering, or potentially an environmental trigger effect. Aim the engines down while going over sand/snow/water/dust? Make a plume of that material to obfuscate the course for those behind you. Aim them at a brittle looking wall while passing it to collapse it, or send bits of rubble to pelt anyone close enough behind you. Of course, its main should probably be air control and being able to move engine location for those tight fit areas we know are going to be a mainstay.
