Plus, they shortened the preload window, so on my crappy internet I’ll probably get it halfway through the weekend 

Growing up on a mountainous coastal island, I know the weird dread of the open plains PA is talking about. When it’s just.... flat, in all directions, everywhere, nowhere to hide... yikes!

I recently replayed Andromeda, and the way it strings out party banter during car trips makes it pretty easy to rotate through all your party combinations while sidequesting without feeling like you’re in danger of having the wrong team at the wrong moment and missing a big plot beat. There’s some planet specific…

There is no way to read the article and come out of it with “Players can now pay a buck a month to access better statistics” as an accurate summary. I am not misreading it, the title is poorly worded, its literally the opposite of what the article says (that players can now pay a buck a month to access poorer statistic…

Okay, but reconcile:

The title, first paragraph, and rest of the article don’t seem to be able to take a position. Is it free, or $1? Is it more comprehensive, or less comprehensive? Better, or worse? If you were being intentionally confusing for a punch line, it isn’t working.

I used to work as a clerk. There was an evidence locker off my office for cases that were currently at trial, when things were offered as exhibits they’d basically leave the police or offering party’s custody and enter the court’s custody. It was not a hardened secure storage like you’d see on TV, think like a…

Attorneys can’t testify directly, all they can do is introduce testimony and exhibits from witnesses. So when you offer a teapot or something as an exhibit, which you want the judge or jury to treat meaningfully as a teapot of a certain brand or belonging to a certain person, you have to have a witness up on the stand…

How tf Bill Gates gonna get a “next chapter of his life”? He’s already an immeasurably rich, successful, and respected immortal lizard person, is he gonna get frosted tips now or something to mix it up? Although, I was today years old when I found out he’s 65 and not like 85...

I’m plugging away at Monster Hunter: Rise... it’s my first entry into the series, and while I enjoy the gameplay quite a bit, playing with a group seems to come down to “do everything as fast as possible, no detours” which is definitely NOT how I play games. Like, I was never able to get into multiplayer Diablo,…

It really does though! Gold plated shit and giant diamonds both just seem really, really tacky and cheap looking to me. Is it a generational thing?

I love having a touchscreen laptop with a cracked screen, which I SOMEHOW managed to disable the touchscreen driver for through some high-intensity button mashing... only to have Windows 10 helpfully re-enable that driver from time to time, just in case I’m curious about the great features I’m missing out on (like…

And you’re right! It’s fine, but I can’t really think of anything particularly unique about the setting or story in season 1. 

At the end of the day, providing McCarthy a platform for any message or appearance whatsoever indirectly legitimizes her bullshit through other channels too... But the cat’s already out of the bag on that one, so if for whatever reason one MUST interview her, then not giving her a chance to lie about vaccines is…

I mean, the change could be exactly as innocuous as they say it is... are we certain they’ve ever ACTUALLY donated more than 15% to charities? Maybe the slider was just for show!

I don’t see why responding to the grey was required. Now, theirs is the top comment, and yours several below, less likely to be read. 

Arguing that it’s problematic for companies to boycott regressive states is a little facetious. States woo industries with their legislation. Communicating (and following through with) industry expectations for human rights is the RIGHT way for companies to exert political influence (as opposed to say, employment of…

Haha why do I feel like I’ve seen that clip? 

They also have replays, non-abrasive commentary, and stream formatting that helps casual watchers understand why moments are exciting or unusual. The linked timestamp has none of those things, I can’t really understand what’s so remarkable about the moment, and don’t care to watch for 5-10 minutes to see if they…

Half of the eggs in Claire’s photo are upside down in her carton, btw. Always store them pointed side down, because the air sack in an egg is in the broad end. When you store them upside down, all sorts of unpredictable egg textures can develop over time.
