Do you even like video games? Judging by your comments in this thread, they make you angry and bitter, so I don't know why you bother to post about them.

You have to take a very cursory glance to not find differences between Street Fighter 5 and 6. The gameplay systems are very different, 6 has an actually good single player mode, the net code is vastly improved. If you're just looking at the graphics, you're doing the same thing this post is criticizing but for the opposite goal. Street Fighter 6 is one of the AAA home runs, especially when you consider the disasterous launch of SF5.

I moved to Chicago at the end of October from the deep south. The past few days the weather has been hovering around 0⁰F and that has been an adjustment. I've figured out the clothing I can wear to bear it. Sunday my feet felt like they were going to fall off after only a few minutes walking around. Last night I had to wait for a bus for like 20 minutes and I was totally fine. I switched boots and it fixed my whole issue with comfort.

There's being informed, and there's being saturated to the the point it affects your mental health. In 2020, I had to unsub a bunch of subreddits that had a tendency to bring up trump even when he wasn't part of the subject at all because I was starting to really spiral. I understand wanting a reprieve from the firehouse that is the Trump/anti-trump "discourse". It's not so bad now, thankfully.

That wasn't the past couple days because Chicago has been cold as fuck and that would be frozen.

Then, the sequels were so consistently mediocre that the original was more or less erased from history.

I will not have you slander Battlefield Vietnam like this. I spent countless hours on a "heliwars" server after school as a kid.

Cast iron is super easy to clean. I just lightly scrape out the big stuff then boil an inch of water in

I use the same method. But I've never burned honey in my cast iron. I imagined the cleanup was a little more annoying than some burned on bacon.

Looks great. How was the pan cleanup?

I used to work at a factory. One of the maintenance guys had a zip-tied little rainbow pony on his toolbox. He was just a goofball. He would carry around a roll of large gold star stickers. He would randomly put one on your chest and say "you're doing a great job". I saw a gold star on the TP dispenser in the bathroom and knew he was to blame.

Most of the guys in that kind of profession are pretty accepting as long as you do your thing with confidence. You'll get some ribbing, but you're expected to give it back.

IANAL, but it doesn't seem like this is a big deal. DOJ wanted to know if the defense was going to use a particular defense. The judge didn't compel the defense to disclose their defensive strategy. Maybe a lawyer can provide some insight but this seems like a non story.

I heard the three basic rules from somewhere:

1. Always use the right tool for the job
2. A hammer is always the right tool
3. Every tool is a hammer

The article mentions it was a Boeing 777.

Is NA beer high in calories? I thought most of the calories from beer came from the alcohol.

Agreed. This is a multi-layered fuckup. The manufacturer probably didn't tighten things down all the way, their QA didn't catch the critical defect, the plane inspectors didn't catch it during inspection, the airline didn't ground it after a pressurization warning, the pilot flew a plane with a known issue. There are several cultures of complacency at play. Hopefully the FAA can scare everyone into flying right.

In car circles, Miata owners often say that Miata stands for "Miata Is Always The Answer"

Yep. I've seen some top tier clownery in Lemmy. And there are some subreddits with really positive communities. The good communities are usually the smaller ones and Lemmy is smaller overall, so it hasn't really had time to be as bad.

I've had a speeding ticket where I was offered a "no points" option to pay a higher fine. That was only offered after I showed up in court. This would discriminate against poorer drivers.

I think the 10 commandments are in Exodus which is also one of the books where God says exactly how you should own slaves. So that would be a weird one.

Theoretically, that would only reduce the price proportional to the amount of new production relative to existing world production. This does little to dampen market turbulence.
