- Comment on Is there anything my girlfriend and I have to consider when traveling to America based on our skin differences? 1 day ago:
2016 in the mountains of North Carolina a girl was taken out of my high school because some of the kids were bullying her so bad for being a “n****r-lover” cause she dated one of the few black guys in the area
They had to learn that from somewhere and enough of the school was doing it that she and her mom felt she was unsafe there
Overt racism is still alive and real in more places in America than people want to admit

It definitely still caught me by surprise. Not like it might have in 1996 - I just played Baldur’s Gate 3 within the past year, after all - but the first time I played I definitely managed to get almost every single piece of bad evidence against me that I could rack up without even meaning to.

The nature of federation means that even if you never post anything to my instance, your garbage may still be visible to my people via tangential interactions on shared linked instances. Bans solve this on the local instance level and are by far the easiest way to accomplish this.
(To be clear, the “you” in this is not referring to you specifically OP, it’s a general term)

Hollow Knight gives a pretty fucking solid try, to be fair. But yeah, I do agree.

Third for Chrono Trigger. I didn’t get to play that one when I was a kid so I played it for the first time in 2020. Holy shit what a game. The original definitely still holds up today.

1v1 where you’re expecting Oddjob is a lot different than 4P deathmatch where one guy is Oddjob. That’s where it’s a real dick move cause he’ll catch you by surprise.
Still, though. Respect.

Debit card is tied directly to your bank account with no rollbacks. If somebody gets that info and decides to clean out your bank account, that money is gone, period, and you’ll never see it again.
With a credit card, you have a degree of separation and the ability to contest or roll back charges. Debit cards don’t do that.

Meanwhile I’m trying to get diagnosed as an adult but because I got good grades as a kid and didn’t actively commit crimes all the time I’m being told that it’s impossible that I have ADHD
It’s so frustrating

Unless your console has a file browser with an Extra Content folder in it, I’m gonna guess no.
However, the same rulebook is also available for free on Roll20.

Nuclear has the same problem as aviation, by average it’s many many times safer than most alternatives, but any time something goes wrong it has a high chance of going extremely wrong and making an international scene. So it’s generally safer but every accident makes world news.

Yeah that fork gets washed between uses. The water comes right out of the pipe. Most people would immediately vom if they saw inside their water supply pipes.

Martin Luther King Jr was able to succeed with his peaceful protests because the threat of Malcolm X was looming directly over his shoulder. One requires the other. Either of them alone would not have made nearly the progress they did.

Ah, I misunderstood what you meant. I took that to mean they had previously announced an update and then rolled it back, which would be news to me.

Even if you were correct, which you aren’t, you have no way of possibly knowing that.
