Yeah but like any successful politician he’ll readily compromise his principles in order to hold onto power.

I’ll play. I figure I might never finish all the tiers solo but maybe I have a shot at the higher ones if I contribute to a group 🙂

Día de los Muertos, because of the amazing art at the very least. Plus, who wouldn’t want a second Halloween of sorts? (I know the reasons to celebrate are very different)

Also, Earth Day and Arbor Day, because our trees and planet are awesome.

Back when I used Windows, it worked fine for me out of the box between Win7 and both Ubuntu-based and Arch-based Linux distros 🤷

This, except consider exFAT. It’s more modern than FAT32 but also widely compatible.

Some insects are attracted to light sources, but not mosquitos. They seek out the things our bayou friend already mentioned.

That’s a dove and olives representing peace, right? Pretty good.

Many are from a huge list (some modified) but I picked out favorites that seemed fitting for a pet and it was actually easier to just retype them. Some were my ideas (e.g. Lt. Dangle because I love Reno 911). I didn’t want duplicates so alphabetizing was the simplest way to avoid that. And yes I giggled pretty much the whole time 😁

Others here have explained the political meaning of “conservatism”. I think maybe you conflated that word with conservationism. They are definitely not the same thing.

Oh damn, is oompa-loompa no longer considered acceptable?

I’ll second this entirely.

Prey 2006 is a slightly gory boomer shooter with interesting topsy-turvy levels, gravity tricks, a few cool enemies and guns and powers, and a campy alien abduction / invasion story. It might be a little underrated in its genre. Definitely fun.

But Prey 2017 was more of a clever stealth action / psych horror title in the vein of Deus Ex and of course System Shock. Brilliant interconnected level design, a deep story, a good (though not super original) roster of guns and superpowers, some tricky puzzles, and a few interesting and enemies. It gets a good amount of love but I still think it deserves wider recognition as an excellent game.

It’s frankly stupid that they have the same name.

This is the FCC = Federal Communications Commission. I don’t know the origins but as long as I’ve been aware they’ve been a 5-member panel; 3 commissioners from the president’s party and 2 from the opposing party. They’re supported by hundreds of staff members.

FTC = Federal Trade Commission, a completely separate body. They recently made headlines for banning non-compete agreements.

I don’t have any difficulty doing that with a mixed salad 🤷‍♂️

I feel like turkey, cornish hen, and maybe quail are more common as food than pheasant and goose. At least in the US. If you’re European maybe you put live blackbirds inside pies or something, I dunno, but I guess that’s technically a dino meal too.

Both are reptiles. But the crocs and dinos are different lineages.

Heh, customers are the worst 😅

In my experience most mid-upper scale restaurants not only mix the salad but toss it with the ideal amount of dressing before serving it as well. I appreciate that, but I have to wonder how many complaints they get.

These salads to me feel like they send a message. Like “Mix it yourself, peasant, and good luck keeping it all in the bowl when you do. By the way 95% of it’s just iceberg hidden under the toppings.”

Don’t get me wrong, the orderly layers are aesthetically pleasing. And it actually looks like romaine or green leaf here which is nice.

Happy birthday! I actually just started playing Journey for the first time yesterday, less than an hour I’d say (on Steam). The visuals and fluidity of controls are nice, nothing spectacular by today’s standards but I’m sure they were great back in the PS3 era. The beginning felt a little slow trudging through the sand until I understood how the scarf upgrades work. But then when I encountered another player it really started to click and go more smoothly. I like how the game encourages cooperation by pinging and refilling each other’s scarf energy, though I feel like progress might go slow again if I get stuck going solo next session. The puzzles are very simple but I was feeling sick so having a ‘cozy’ game was actually pretty nice.
