Fallout Tactics remains my favorite Fallout.
- Comment on What are your favorite Tactical RPGs? 3 hours ago:
There’s a hilariously drawn out postgame/endgame challenge dungeon type thing that’s like 100+ straight battles.
But the main game is solidly worth the full price, quite honestly. Any sale you find is just helping your budget.

They hate it when you clown on Sparta like a smug Athenian too.

Bladder sourced is what the study determined, with the fluid being normal urine or Skene’s gland secretion, but likely some combination.
Plausibly there could be pure glandular secretion squirt. Or urine. But likely a mix.

They don’t even have to pass those if they don’t want to. In portions of America it is just: win an election, appoint your friends and lackies.
A lot of departments use the admission tests to screen out candidates who might be overqualified: they specifically won’t want the best. An overwight blob is preferable to an in shape individual that might think before acting.

It isn’t a paradox, or it doesn’t have to be. It isn’t a seemingly false or untrue statement that belies a deeper meaning.
It is a definitional and logical conclusion that a concept cannot tolerate its anathema and inverse.
Chemically tolerance means the limit at which something begins to degrade or an organism has to/begins to adapt. This is at least what I interpret with what is being brought up with tolerance of intolerance: when adaptation or degradation is required, the limits of tolerance have been reached.

Insert one shibboleth, like one bit of information critically wrong intentionally. Make lists of users who point it out for HR.

Ah I see. It took me entirely too long (now) to notice the typo. I’ll have to leave it there.

I do a lil American conjugation. Prefer it to youse, at least.

I assume America by ‘West’ and ‘free country’? Ya’ll are teenagers and she is a minor. Until she is in an independent position and likely a legal adult I would not engage in the affairs of her legal guardians, as close as you two may be or feel.

That’s likely what’s at work with these things. I even got a few chronic haters that downvote just about everything I write, even when it’s calling out racism. They’ll downvote criticism of Nazis in the effort, even.

It was a show that understood conservative American culture well enough to make social commentary on it.

No technician on Earth will be able to debug this black box spaghetti except the manufacturer.
I do not share such faith in the manufacturer that made the black box spaghetti.

I find it much more engaging than The Silmarillion.
That is understandable. Silmarillion is like a collection of extended footnotes and a cosmology rulebook.
- Comment on 70% of games that require internet get destroyed 3 weeks ago:
An MMO i played from 1999-2007 shut down in I think 2017. I still remember the landscapes and landmarks and it is really strange knowing the shared experiences in those places are just flat gone. Inscribed items with messages to other players: deleted.
I have emulated the game world but only fragments were saved by collective efforts in the community before shutdown. Regardless there’s simply no people or things to interact with so it feels even more soullessly dead and empty.

- Comment on The PS3's comeback was insane 3 weeks ago:
PS3 launch relied on its backwards compatibility to have a deep roster of games. Removing hardware backwards compatibility was a blow, and in my opinion really started the unfortunate trend of rereleasing ported last-gen games for the next-gen console.

Fair point, I’ll revise my statement. Everything Everywhere All At Once was objectively good.

Damnum.

Additionally there are a lot of people who choose to remain ignorant about Batista. A communist revolution overthrowing an objectively brutal regime really gets the right wingers on the defensive.

They hold up in court, which is why for important legal documents they’re sought out.
- Comment on Bingeing, Weekly, or Batches? Is There a Right Way to Roll Out a Series on Streaming? 4 weeks ago:
Whichever method doesn’t mess with production. Just release a fully baked product.
Sometimes the pressure of weekly production is a good thing, but it’s almost all about the style and capacity of the writing.
But no, the article is about marketing.

As an environmental regulator in America I know first hand how company owners tend to respect nothing but their own wealth and standing. I write and enforce administrative orders and penalties to company presidents and CEOs. They’ll throw the world under the bus before taking reaponsibility.
But during covid a lot of contracts and orders were digitally signed and not given wet signatures.
So a lot of American company owners are trying to pull back on everything covid. One of the angles is attempting to void all contracts not physically signed with a wet signature. Completely ignoring digital signing is a (new?) tactic being used.

If there’s an actual debate you’ve got to define terms. People’s definitions of ‘leftist’ can be pretty wild, especially if the debate is between an American and… mostly anyone outside America.
I have seen people waxing poetic about Imperial Japan and the Jakarta Method who consider themselves leftist, while at the same time associate outright NazBols with the left.
So ‘what do you actually mean by tankie/liberal?’ will usually cut through a lot of debate perv noise.

A fundamental disagreement on a foundational principle is going to be a hurdle, indeed.

My 1980s era construction is valued at over 400k. Neighbors been selling recently for 450k-480k. It’s wild that they’ve doubled in cost since covid, after doubling in cost after the bank failures before them.
