This still doesn’t explain why Cena’s victory is being reported to much hype in the sports sections.

This meme pretty much defined “chuffed” for me and I think about it every time I hear the word

Because they don’t make money from mods and this was an obvious cash grab from the beginning. If Bethesda had any good ideas they’d be making a game out of them. They don’t, so instead they’re reselling you the same game they already sold you 19 years ago with a fresh coat of paint on it. A million people will buy it anyway because nostalgia, Bethesda gets their money, and whatever happens afterward is not their concern.

This is definitely untrue and the reason some games have 18,000 mods and some games have 0 is almost entirely down to developer cooperation.

Sometimes if a game is using an existing engine that is known to be moddable, you can get a community built off of some pre-existing knowledge and kind of strike out on your own to build a mod. In most cases if the devs didn’t build the game with mod support in mind you’re not getting any mods.

You don’t, it’s just a controller, shaped like a Steam Deck but without the screen. With the touch pads and everything. It can be normal controller sized since you don’t need the screens and giant battery, and most of the processing. Maybe save a little flash memory in it to save control schemes right to the controller would be nice.

It started out as ha-ha-funny-number because my college roommates kept setting the thermostat there to be funny but then it just become a comfortable temperature to exist at

So you’re telling me it’s only a matter of time before Skum orders his pilots to go dark and cease broadcasting, and then they’re going to hit a jet liner full of families trying to escape his corporate hell.

Same with looting all the farms in Skyrim. I just saved your entire place from being burninated, I’m taking some of this wheat as hero tax.

Look bud, you can’t call it “February second” in conversation, write it down as “Second February” in writing, and then get mad at us Yanks about it. Pick a lane.

The woman’s left hand and the man’s right both seem to be missing some fingers. And yeah those bats are suuuuuper janky.

I have the folding tablet style and I use it in half-folded mode to watch videos in bed with. Basically the same as having a built in kickstand but you get video controls on the bottom half.

I have a Galaxy Z Fold 2 and it’s my favorite phone I’ve ever owned by a mile. I bought it secondhand (refurbished) in 2022, two years after it came out, and have been using it for three years myself.

There’s sort of a crease down the center of the folding screen that you can see if you’re looking for it specifically, but if you’re looking at the phone head-on like you usually would be and aren’t trying to pay attention to the crease, it fades right out of awareness.

I bought this phone with the intention of reading books on it, and playing some games that are otherwise more tablet-friendly (Slay The Spire for instance) and it’s by far the best mobile reading and gaming experience I’ve ever had with a phone.

If I wanted to I could have the screen replaced to remove the crease but it doesn’t bother me enough to pay for that. I’ve folded this phone open and closed probably a minimum of two dozen times per day every single day for the past 3 years and I’ve never had to replace a part yet. When I bought the thing I expected it to be usable for about 1-2 years and then need repair or replacement, but we’re now cooking on the third year of daily use and it still looks as good as it did in year 1.

This very post was made on that phone and was folded and reopened twice in the process as I did other things.

Soy gringo… Mi español no es bueno, pero no creo que eso sea correcto…

Oh man, you think that was uncomfortable, try playing the VR version.

It makes you virtually kill yourself at least twice and implies mind control of the player.

Shit’s wild.

Have we told them about it in Spanish?

Lots of Spanish speakers also speak some English but also lots of them don’t. Some outreach in different languages might be a good idea.

This is the only part of this set that I actually want

It is clear that your parents are concerned for your safety and well being and I don’t think that is an unreasonable position to have. Nobody wants to learn that their child was arrested or killed at a protest.

However. Great change does not come from folks staying safe and quiet at home.

I think many parents are struggling with this right now. On one hand it is our duty as citizens to do something about the world around us and not sit in complacency. On the other hand that’s extremely dangerous to do in the current environment. I doubly respect this concern coming from Chinese folks who may have experience with having their speech suppressed in the past.

I support you being out in the streets and making a big noise with the rest of us. But I am not your family. If you were to die, or be taken prisoner, at a protest I would never know your name, only that you were my brother who gave his life for our cause. You would have my unending respect but in the end what I think of you shouldn’t matter for you and yours.

Protesting is dangerous. More so now than ever before. Things worth doing are never easy but this, especially, is something that has a serious chance of ending or ruining your life. Make your peace with that, or avoid it if you can’t. The world needs dissenters right now, but it needs ones that are well seated in their confidence.

At the end of the day though, no matter what happens, I can’t be mad at anyone for prioritizing their personal safety. A revolution will require sacrifice but that isn’t something that can be asked of someone. It is given freely or not at all. Your parents are asking you not to make a sacrifice.

Oh man, this brings me back. I remember passing notes in middle school in bootleg Elian script - I’m in my 30s now.

It’s by far my favorite cipher because it’s easy to read, it’s easy to modify if someone else learns to read it, and you get a ton of artistic license with the way your letters look so long as they adhere to the basic framework. Really well formed Elian is unrecognizable as script to someone who isn’t looking for it.

Thanks for this, subscribed!

Evolving from Magikarp makes him objectively the coolest dragon. Started from the bottom now we’re here.

The lack of actual Dragon typing does sting, though.

I wish I could agree with you. But mercy and lack of revenge the first time around is what brought us here today. Post civil war Reconstruction was far, far too kind to the people who thought they were entitled to owning the lives of other human beings.
