More like in favour of non-shitty Bluetooth earbuds. I’ve never had this kind of issue with mine.

I know this as ‘eat your frogs’.

I am generally unwilling to pay extra for features I don’t need and didn’t ask for.

Why does Torx Plus have six teeth but tamper-resistant Torx Plus has five? Whereas ‘what the fuck is this’ basically looks like it should be tamper-resistant Torx Plus?

That pistol appears to be cocked and not locked (safety off). I seriously hope there’s no round chambered.

The standalone Gwent version started sucking the moment all the competitive gamers got their hands on it. Then it was all about optimising the game to death, all the decks got streamlined. I came back to the game after a longer break and it was almost completely different, and my favourite faction had been so drastically altered that I couldn’t get back into it.

Dreamfall Chapters was the first game where I stopped and thought for 15 minutes about a choice I needed to make, and its implications.

Life is Strange, LiS: Before The Storm, and LiS: True Colors, hve a special place in my heart for their deeply engrossing and moving stories, and for really getting me to care about the characters and their fates.

The first Witcher game was one that drew me in so much that I immediately started a second playthrough upon finishing the first. I have never done that with any other game.

Hardspace: Shipbreakers stuck with me for being such an excellent melange of complex puzzle, industrial accident simulator, and poignant satire on the state of labour in late stage capitalism.

Depending on your SLA, 3 minutes can be a pretty big chunk of your monthly error budget.

It didn’t just take “Hitler’s death” for Germans to be able to vote again. It wasn’t a case of “oh look, he’s dead, now we can go back to democracy”. It took over a decade of political terror and violence, a devastating world war, and one of the most organised campaigns of mass murder and genocide in history.

Re the first part: nobody enters my house if they don’t have a key and I’m not present. Re the second part, I don’t trust any software-based technology near enough to rely on that kind of stuff without double-checking. . Turn the key, done.

So be authentic to the universe. Be authentic to the lore. Nobody knows what ‘authentically American’ will look like in fifty plus years. And it’s still a fictitious city. There is no need for details to conform with any particular city of today, American or not.

I don’t need a game that’s set in a fictional future and world to be ‘authentically American’.

I would remind you that Aukus is a mess of the Coalition’s making - after they made a mess of the original submarine replacement project under Abbott and Turnbull, insisting on Diesel.

But for Labor to withdraw from Aukus would cause a shitstorm of unseen proportions.

To this day I don’t know what problem smart locks are supposed to solve that hasn’t already been solved by the good old lock and key combo. Requires no electricity, no internet, just works.

That means they’re not for your ears. Not that they’re designed to inflict pain. I’ve had those AirPods, they were fine for me - and my ears don’t like most earbuds that get shoved in there, and sometimes even start hurting from over-ear headphones. I now have the Airpod Pros and they’re even better, all that goes into your ear is the silicone bud, no rigid plastic in the mix.

Lots of very roundabout ‘the game isn’t difficult, you just need to get good at it’ replies in this thread, trying hard not to say the quiet part out loud…

My in-laws brought me back a pack of 4 different craft beers from a trip recently. I can’t drink and enjoy them - way too hoppy. Even the Pilsner - and I like a good Pilsner - was not enjoyable at all. The one that’s left is the dark beer - going to be an expensive dirty Diesel one day.

Freedom of religion also means freedom from religion. If legal and moral standard of society are dominated by the tenets of one religion, that’s not freedom of religion.

You can have your faith, so long as you stop forcing it down other people’s throats.

I pointed out that your JOKE was shit. You’re the one who started calling me names, so don’t lecture me on twisted knickers.
