I allow flying races but I insist they have in their background story a reason why they can't fly right now, and I'll bring it into the story and play later on so the character can do something to regain their flight when they get to the level I've decided they can have flight in this campaign (usually 8-11)

I didn't think Verge was..?

They do both, their own index focuses on the "small web", more info here:

It is in the UK it's prescription only other than a very low dose, in which case it's pharmacy only following consultation with the pharmacist... these are controlled drugs under UK law

This is the route I took, works very well

I'm surprised they think this is useful... if I've paused a video it's because I'm answering the phone or front door, making a coffee, going for a shit etc... I'm almost never going to see these ads 🤷🏻‍♂️

SBM is run by Dr Stephen Novella aka Skeptics Guide to the Universe, these guys are some of the most vocal (and knowledgeable) pro-science anti-quack science communicators around... if there's BS antivacc nonsense floating around, they'll call it out and rip it apart.

Can highly recommend their podcast (the aforementioned Skeptics Guide to the Universe) as well!

Poe's Law still alive and kicking

Thing is how do you differentiate between a bunch of people who genuinely like a product and are happy to say so because it's solved a problem for them that they see other people having, and "subtle spam"?

For instance, I'm a Kagi subscriber and have been for some months now as it's doing a good job for me, and I've had the odd person leap down my throat accusing me of being a corporate shill etc, and I am absolutely not (but that's what a shill would say!!!)

How does anyone get a product recommendation from a product that's genuinely growing in popularity so people are recommending it? I get there needs to be a healthy dose of cynicism but where does the line get drawn to the point where that cynicism is no longer "healthy" and simply means everyone distrusts everything that's made by a company if somebody on the internet says it's good?

Where's the equal cynicism when somebody says something is shit and it could be a corporate shill from a competitor?

It didn't help they hadn't thought it through either... the game was for sale in countries where you can't get PSN 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
