Nobody said Firewatch yet?

I'll also add To The Moon as well. I could list more, but almost any game where narrative is the main focus and gameplay is secondary.

Yes, it absolutely will. That's why I fragrance the pandas. Just a little here and there so that some Howard will need to sort through it. The lime really comes through clearly.

Or you get even more nuanced and say unregulated free market is best only on the frontier of emerging new market sectors, and that areas we depend on should be heavily regulated, socialized, and run at cost for the public for free supported by tax dollars.

Have different systems for different things depending on which works best for what.

I just got a new phone, and the ai voice assistant is actually good. It's what people imagined it was going to be when they first came out. It doesn't have access yet to a lot of things, so it can't 'act' on things, but it actually gives consistently relevant info.

One thing I've used it for recently is I was in a game and knew there was a secret chest and it could accurately tell me what to do to get it Way better than looking up a video.

Not to mention the weight. Those premium vehicles with long range stats are very heavy. That's what makes them so terrifying to me.

I was never really social to begin with, so I just resumed being my normal introverted self.

I have to do similar things when it comes to 'raytracing'. It meant one thing, and then a company comes along and calls something sorta similar the same thing, then everyone has these ideas of what it should be vs. what it actually is doing. Then later, a better version comes out that nearly matches the original term, but there's already a negative hype because it launched half baked and misnamed. Now they have to name the original thing something new new to market it because they destroyed the original name with a bad label and half baked product.

Even if it were thicker I'd still slap on a sacrificial glass screen protector atop it. I've dropped my phone only a handful of times, and so far have only ever broken the protector.

Just slap a shield on it, there's your added thickness and better drop resistance all in one!

That or build something that can stand up to being hit. Tall order, but the inner armchair engineer in me thinks it's like, totally possible.

Would creating the cyber truck be considered as a suicide attempt?

Generally speaking, you learn more about how something works when the core functionality is exposed to the user, and just janky enough to require fiddling with it and fixing things.

This is true of lots of things like cars, drones, 3D printers, and computers. If you get a really nice one, it just works and you don't have to figure anything out. A cheap one, or something you have to build yourself, makes you have to learn how it actually works to get it to run right.

Now that things are so comodified and simplified, they just work and really discourage tinkering, so people learn less about core functionality and how things actually work. Not always true, but a trend I've experienced.

I still get hit hard from just the trailer.

Leave no trace

39 here and still playing. The worst part is STILL having a huge backlog of steam games to work through.

It's also funny because most of my heavy conservative coworkers all have beards, trucks, and country stuff because that's the image.

Now that I think about it, quite a few are bald and shave their heads, sooo... Maybe that's an angle they could shoot for? Those could be some wild ads.

I'd be watching a car accident compilation and a Buick starts trying to tell me to ask my doctor about Cymbalta. You know... I might actually watch that.

Yes, but then ONE person is going to blow it on something stupid, post it online, and be the example for the justification for the entire program to be shut down.

Pluto, obviously.

I vaguely recall that as one of the explanations for why they have not found all the wrecks in the triangle- the sea floor there is underwater quicksand

You could always also read at a public pool. Grab a spot, get some sun maybe a swim, and read a few chapters.
