What will they put on the feet of their walkers?

Two so far. No closet is deep enough to bury that many skeletons. The first few murders are to slow further whistleblowers, it’s just business to Boeing.

Achy Breaky Heart.
I’m not playing to win.

I suspect I’m pretty much the only market for this thing. I can play while in bed, which is where most of switch gaming currently happens. The price is probably reasonable for what it cost them, but they need to explain why anyone besides me would want one.

Can I plug the new vr into it so I can get rid of the gosh-darn wire?

I wonder if they consulted all of the people their priests raped before spending potential settlement money on this?

Celibate all male priest-hood, yea what an amazing idea. Dipshits. US catholic charities do a better job of actually offering the services that hardline protestant churches don’t bother with, but the catholic church abdicated it’s moral authority on issues like this when it specifically and cynically sacrificed it’s own parishioners to preserve the illusion of a caring and wise church.

“So I asked Jesus, should I do my job or should I hold a nation’s military hostage? Jesus said ‘no comprendo’ and went back to mowing my lawn. That was my sign from god that I should be a useless barnacle instead of doing my so-called job.”

Divorce doesn’t protect your personal bank account. That money doesn’t suddenly becomes yours.

Yes, but no. If you are married and only have joint accounts, you can’t do much to prevent the other person from withdrawing from those accounts until you get into see the magistrate. At a minimum, you should have a separate account if you are paid by direct deposit.

The book of Mormon part 2, the dairy wars

My friend group fractured and faded because of the divorce, and I was in no shape to function beyond keeping my job. I got the kids back full time after 2 years of absolutely bleak desolation. I focused on the kids and job for the next 10 years. Right now I’m crawling out my isolation a bit, but only a bit. My kids are now grumpy teenagers who can mostly take care of themselves, and I’m left wondering “what now?”.

I dunno. Some of the kids activities allowed a bit of socialization around the fringe, but I’m gun shy to the point of not being very willing to engage. Dating probably isn’t an option, I’ve seen things that can’t be unseen. I like my work friends a lot, but work friends aren’t the same as personal friends. I’m not sure what happens from this point, but I’ve got options if I have the effort and willingness to pursue them. If.

Meh, hate the game, not the player. I’ve spent half a life and my whole career adjacent to MS, my anger about their products and practices has long since turned to cynical acceptance. Yes, they have over stepped the bounds of fairness and good taste many times, but I’ve seen other vendors do so much worse. If you don’t like Microsoft products, advocate for something else. The bottom of the bottle is that Microsoft has a duty to pursue profit for it’s shareholders, and some of that will be ugly. These days there are workable alternatives for everything they sell, which wasn’t always the case.

Pretty much this. There is a significant learning curve to kubernetes (or similar, I guess?), but it’s a handy skill to be familiar with. If things basically run but with degraded performance on one raspberry, there is no real need for a vertical performance increase. Adding the second will provide almost double capacity, with some HA added for fun.

If containerized, scale horizontal and load balance.

This does not surprise me, and I’m not even very disappointed. TotK is essentially DLC, more of the same would have felt cheap. TotK gameplay has some new and interesting elements, but it still feels like BotW with extra stuff. And that’s fine, I loved BotW.

The heart of BotW was traversing Hyrule, the map was the central puzzle (sometimes even the enemy). Once Link powers up with stamina, abilities, gear, and teleport locations, the game starts feeling empty. Because at the same time as you’re powering up, you’re removing reasons to have to travel (by completing quests and such) over the map and removing the main challenge.

The first thing I noticed about TotK was how little I had to fight with the terrain. I was still interacting with the map in a fun way, particularly because of vehicles, but it was trivially easy to do. Aside from the depths being locked behind chasms, there isn’t anywhere you can’t go easily if you want to. I started travelling overland when I didn’t have to, but I didn’t have to.

If they re-tread this Hyrule again, I hope they do Zelda’s Time Sage story. Legend of Zelda without Link’s skillset would be a totally different way to interact with the map.

Anyhoo, I’m looking forward to the next version of Hyrule.

Except stay awake while hearing cases at the country’s top court. Thomas likes his naps as much as he likes his billionaire patrons.

Instead Hillary hired the asshole who went after Anita Hill to run her presidential campaign. David Brock is useless. One of many idiot moves Clinton made to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I guess my cutoff would be actual conversation. Unless they specifically ask to be eaten, ala the bit from Hitchiker’s Guide, in which case I guess the sky is the limit.

I think there are a lot of “meat is an accent, not the whole dish” recipes out there, from all over the world. Adapting flavors to a more western palette is going to be tricky, but it can be done. So long as they are presented as good recipes instead of “here is a half step step to vegetarianism”, I think people would dig it.

Without putting too much emphasis on it, showing people how to find fresh veg/fruit/herbs outside of a grocery would be useful, as would some tips on how to buy ethically raised meat/dairy. Having to make trips to different places seems like a chore (and certainly can be), but showing how it can be a pleasant social experience would help a lot to build a larger community of like-minded foodies. Spend local, reduce waste, encourage a local market for superior produce, network with like-minded people, etc…
