I’m guessing there’s a financial component to this, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he did a simple cost/benefit analysis and decided that the paycheck he’d get from this could be put to good use for his son and in-laws.

Also, for what it’s worth, the filming period of these shows isn’t particularly long. They can film…

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s both. If they’re (the in-laws) are older, there’s a good chance he and his late wife were the breadwinners and provided for them. He’s also the father of their grandchild and their son-in-law. There’s a lot of emotions involved there.

It’s not just as simple as disputing charges.

We don’t know how they paid. If it’s with a debit card, disputing the charges could result in the entire card being unable to be used until a replacement is sent out. Then there’s the issue of finding alternate accomodations (not saying the latter happened in the show, but…

What you said is exactly the reason why I decided against a gaming chair and got an executive office chair instead last year.

I’m rather tall and muscular from years of playing sports, and most of the available gaming chairs in-store (I’d never buy a chair online) were either too short (so poor neck support), had side…

I wanted a gamer chair for awhile, so when moving to my new place last year, I decided to check out a few from local stores, specifically so that I could see how they felt, instead of dropping $100s of dollars on something I might not like.

Suffice to say, all of them failed in one way or another, with the most common…

“On-again, off-again” boyfriend sure sounds like he was “off” while she thought they were “on”.

Everyone involved in this is an idiot.

It depends on what you mean by “hitman”.

Story-wise, and going by the final bosses, we’ve killed going back to Vanilla: Archimonde (in WoD), Argus (in Legion), and N’Zoth (in BFA).

We’ve defeated (but didn’t kill): Kel’Thuzad (in Vanilla), Kil’Jaeden (in BC), Deathwing (in Cata), and Garrosh (in WoD).

Kel’Thuzad is…

I’m looking at my e-mail from SE concerning the 14 return, and one of the eligibility requirements (in fact the 1st) is that you must have previously purchased and registered FFXIV. So, in your case, since you never actually purchased or registered the game (from what I’m gathering), you can’t technically “return”.

The issue is that they already gave him tenure once, and he dipped out because he couldn’t get along with Larry Summers (the President of Harvard) at the time.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re loathe to give him tenure again because of not only that, but also his proclivity to jump schools every 5-10 years. These are…

From what I remember, the Orcs were already on what is now Outland, and only managed to come to Azeroth via the original Dark Portal, which was in the Black Morass (and created by Medivh). We didn’t know what planet they came from, since the only people from Azeroth who were able to get through that Dark Portal before…

The reality, with how they’ve told the story thus far, is that none of these bad things would’ve happened if we hadn’t followed Sylvanas to the Shadowlands.

While the Arbiter was “depowered”, Zovaal only had one of the keys (from Sire Denathrius). It wasn’t until we intervened that he was able to capture and turn…

I’m still amazed that Legion turned out to be an absolutely amazing expansion considering what we got immediately before (WoD) and after (BFA and now SL).

It’s almost like they painted themselves into a corner by blowing off Sargeras and then having to find a way to bring in N’Zoth while also avoiding an entire…

I played original FFXIV and a bit of ARR, and I got the email to come back for 14 days. Unfortunately, I’m in-between GPUs right now, and there’s no way the piddly piece of piss I’m running now could play it.

Shame, because Shadowlands has been a disappointment and I’ve been at that since launch.

Um, Archimonde wasn’t trying to fuck Nordrassil, he was trying to destroy it, but go ahead, do you.

I mean, I have to disagree a little.

The Dranei capital being a starship has been part of the lore since Dranei’s were introduced. They literally crashed landed the ship onto what would become Outland (alternate-universe Draenor), so that wasn’t particularly out of line, least of all because it’s the only space-faring…

I don’t think Dr. West realizes that tenured professorial positions at schools like Harvard are coveted enough by career academics that most of the negotiating power is held by the universities, not the potential professor(s).

Dr. West is a big time intellectual in his respective fields, but his name isn’t bigger than…

Harvard is such a destination for professors and academics, including black ones, that Harvard can tell Dr. West to kick rocks.

People who want to go to Harvard for African-American studies or theology are going because it’s Harvard, not because Dr. West is teaching there, but because it’s Harvard. Hell, they in no…

You’re right, and it’s still a problem.

I enjoy building computers, but I know I’m far from being proficient enough to do intensive hardware repairs if a specific component outright breaks. So it’s nice to either have a warranty or be able to take it to a 3rd party shop if its out of warranty. Apple does its best to…

Considering that the PS5 and Series X are essentially PCs with only slight modifications (particularly when it comes to their NVME drives), the issue with development seems less of an issue, unless they specifically plan on taking advantage of how fast the NVME drives on both systems are (which, even still, PCs can…

Haha, I appreciate the compliment. Gotta put my Economics minor to use somehow.
