I honestly love it when such profoundly misinformed statements are put forward with absolute authority like this.
a single history
You know that half the country went to war with the other half, right?
a single government
In California, you can order weed through an app and get it delivered to your front door. In Idaho, get pulled over after picking up for the month, you're a felon.
a single language
Single official language sure. At my work I'm the only native English speaker and a majority of our customers are foreigners who speak little English.
This could vary depending on the situation, but as someone who works in healthcare in the US (pray for me), it doesn't really matter if you've got proof of traveler's insurance, unless I'm able to bill them directly and get a paid claim for it. In every case I've dealt with traveler's insurance (admittedly not a ton, but these things are usually handled similarly across the industry), I've been instructed by the insuring company to bill the patient/ client, and that the client will be submitting a claim.
If it's something relatively inexpensive like medication, you'll probably be charged at the pharmacy, pay out of pocket and get reimbursed.
If, God forbid, you need to stay at a hospital, or dare to mention the word "ambulance", you'll be given a bill for $1 million, which you'll forward to the insurance company. They'll handle paying the hospital, then follow up with you on any kind of copay you're meant to be left with.
From your original comment I thought you meant just not recommended at all (ie no ads, never seen a comment or video online, etc) and was like.. how would I have played the game if it wasn't somehow recommended, how would I have heard of it?
I think you're looking for smaller games that aren't constantly being recommended online, which is much less restrictive, haha
The way I interpreted your title was "has not already been mentioned in this thread". Every game ever made has been recommended, idk how you expect people to answer this lol
Favorite is a tough one to pick. There are many games that have genuinely shaped my life, some that I still play consistently, others that hold a dear place in my heart but I'll likely never pick back up for various reasons.
Games that I play all the time and get the most value out of are not necessarily my favorite games. I've been playing the crap out of satisfactory since it's 1.0 release, and it's definitely up there, but it doesn't evoke the same feelings I had when I played Skyrim for the first time, nor do I think it will create formative memories like the Halo, Sly Cooper, or Ratchet and Clank series did for me.
Oh yup. Just checked out their Instagram, this is definitely the best one but the other comics are a good start (looks like they only started doing comics earlier this year). I hope they keep the art style consistent, its hilarious.
A stranger on the internet took the time to write out some really helpful constructive advice to something you're struggling with, and you're blowing them off with a pedantic clarification? If you really don't think there's anything to take away from that comment because they didn't get your exact example perfectly right, that could be another reason people are trying to escape conversations with you. It doesn't sound like you want to have them.
This is some phenomenal advice and I'm afraid the person you gave it to isn't going to appreciate it in the moment but I want you to know that it's giving me some thinking.
They would use leaves to pay wage slaves to harvest leaves.
Wage Slave: Please sir, my family is starving.
Corpo: Silence! You know the punishment for theft.
Wage Slave: But sir! In a single 14 hour shift, me and my coworkers bring in an average of 1.2 tons of dead leaves a day. It costs but a handful of leaves to feed my children, and a small paper bag to house them.
Corpo: Ah, so you know of your costs, yes. But you think not of the costs for those who would pay you. My costs are numerous, and if I am to pay you, and pay still more of your coworkers, they must first be met, and met in full.
WS: You are right, sir, of course. Forgive me, for I know not the burdens beared by those cursed with fortune.
C: Then allow me to educate you! Your coworkers and you bring to me 1.2 tons of leaves everyday. Every day! Do you know the cost of storing 1.2 tons of leaves?
WS: I have never had the leaves necessary to warrant storage, sir. What a burden this must be.
C: A burden, yes! And what's more! If I am to leave my leaves unattended, who is to say the likes of you won't come in the night to take what I have rightfully earned?
WS: Another thought a stranger to me, sir, for I have naught the possessions to fear theft, save for which I have thusly stolen from you.
C: Indeed! And lucky you should feel to be worry free of thievery! And finally. Why is it, do you think, that not everyone grows their own trees, farms their own leaves?
WS: This I do know, sir! This is the law of the land!
C: The law of the land, precisely. But the law does not avail itself cheaply to those who have; nay, for those burdened with the curse of fortune, justice is bought, and bought with deep pockets. For the cost of justice far exceeds the cost of storage, the cost of vigilance, even the cost of labor (which, as a laborer yourself, I need not remind you is exorbitantly high!).
WS: I have never thought to purchase a law before.
C: And it is my wish that you never shall. Great are the troubles of those forced into my position. This is why you must toil, why the days must grow longer and the suppers fewer and further in between, why those who have must always have, and those who don't must never receive; lest you be faced with the ugly wrath of capitalism.
WS: Capitalism! Gods, anything but that!
C: So you see now, Wage Slave, why you must accept this punishment for reaching out to the forbidden fruit.
WS: Please, sir, a decade of unpaid labor is but a gift to someone like me, who was but this close to falling into the clutches of prosperity!
C: Go, then, and sow for me now what I shall later have you reap.
WS: May I sow the same field you have my children working?
Seems like people got your questions answered. Just wanna say that those machines (Prusas) are very nice, and not generally cheap, so even if it was a throwaway for someone make sure to get em a 12 pack or something! That's an awesome gift!
But like.. not always. Wall adapters (at least US ones) can be plugged in upside down, so if that's upside down the holes face down. I have a 3d printer who's motherboard is mounted on the top of the chassis, flipping the USB port so that it's "upside down". A lot of cheap dual-USB chargers that have the two USB ports right next to each other have them mirrored, so one faces up and the other faces down.
Granted, I've always found the "argh USB!!!" frustration to be more a meme than anything; when I'm plugging in a USB device, I likely know what orientation the male side is (flash drives and the like are usually oriented the same way), and it takes half a second of paying attention when going to plug it in to look at the female port to see what direction it's meant to go in.
I'm a big fan of Emily the Engineer. She's a similar chaotic energy as early Michael Reeves but less directly focused on "offensive ideas" or "things to hurt your friends". The creativity behind both the projects and the videos is top notch.
Someone else mentioned gridfinity, that was my first thought too. You can probably find modules for all of the things you listed already made and ready to print.
Once you start with gridfinity, though, you will never stop.
