If you live in the USA and have a library card, you can get audiobooks for free via libby with your library card number and login. If you're looking for other sources, MAM is the goto.

edit: correction, their website says it's worldwide, which is nice.

As an Ex BioWare and EA employee of 13 years, I can certainly tell you, Maxis and BioWare are separate studios with separate decisions. EA does own them but the decision is not related. I can say, however, EA sets the bar way too damn high. I'm just waiting for it to bite them in the ass. I feel like it's already started.

What's the difference between an "untruth" and a lie? Aren't they the same?

I mean honestly, if you're worried, I'd root the device and install a custom ROM that is privacy focused.

I wonder if they are complying with the Texas law of no unsolicited nude images? I, myself, uninstalled it, but if you're curious, here's the law

I mean a VPS is ideal, let's be real. lol

I believe this might fit your use. https://onedev.io/ it's open source as per here: https://github.com/theonedev/onedev When I worked for BioWare for ten years (EA for 13) we used a very awesome product called QuickBuild (Build system, Jenkins is trash. QB is based on Hudson) made by them, pmease. Robin Shine is the dev and he's really cool, very responsive. Check it out, they make good stuff.

This is perfect if you're going the kanban route, which is arguably sufficient. It's nice that they have different deployments and a demo.

Chile Pequin (Capsicum annuum)
It's native where I live. You can find them growing in people's yards. Super spicy, birds love em.

Pepper plants are resilient af. I had a 10 yo pepper plant in a pot that i COULD HAVE SWORN i killed because... I was dating a guy.. and was over at his place a lot .. and didn't water it enough... Anyway this thing was dead, but i was heartbroken I had lost sight of my true love (lol) and watered a dead plant for at least a month and it amazingly survived. It took a year off from pepper production, but this year it's in full bloom. Here's a picture of this 13 year old beast of a plant:

I also love this game. It's just fun to play.

I am definitely going to share this story with the team. It really touched my heart and I'm sure it will theirs.

I remember when the title went on steam, it was a really big deal.

As for the light saber, lemme look. The box is currently in storage, in it's original box, neatly packed. I cherish those years.

I indeed did. I started working on it as QA and left the project as a software engineer. It was a really fun experience.

edit: I have a lightsaber replica to show for it. Lol

I worked in Star Wars: The Old Republic for ten years. It's still running and the story is really nice. EA sold it to Broadsword.

I checked MAM, it's not listed. They have a 2022 book by the same name, different author.

Omg same. I have been burnt so many times on "lifetime" scams, im done. I want to invest in your product, but part of that agreement is you doing what you say. I've had it!

I don't think they realized anything. I worked for them for 13 years. I think they are likely looking at a strategy to bring archived games with low hardware requirements to new platforms that can run them.

For example, I worked on NBA and Madden Mobile. These were ps3 games that were ported.

It's a good strategy. Why start from scratch when you can just port existing titles that had good sales.

In other news, water is wet and the sky is blue...

It's nice because you're getting whole leaf tea, rather than tea dust in a tea bag. You can also buy as little or as much as you want and not get stuck with something you hate.

If you're that dumb, it's natural selection at that point.
