Yes and no. Night Nurse doesn’t have a ton of modern publication history.

Christine Palmer was one of three women, all nurses in the original short lived comic. Which seems to have been a bit of a compilation. But Linda Carter was the one who was “the” Night Nurse of the title and main character. It was a sorta weird…

Also was a professional. For about 15 years.

Babbage’s yes. EB less so.

People seem to mis-remember on that. I dunno if you are. But Babbages and EB were different companies. Babbages eventually turned to GameStop through weird ass series of purchases and mergers, and bought EB eventually.

Thing was not a lot places had one of those. Nor a Software ETC (who were…

I’ve heard of people doing this for various purposes. Sewing, wood work, anything where having a measure quick to hand seems useful.

Apparently had tattoos fade and stretch so fast it just becomes useless in a few years. 

we can surely agree on one positive thing: that the film was made by one of the people responsible for the franchise, Lana Wachowski.

It varies quite a bit.

If you’re talking actual rated, imported Japanese Wagyu like Kobe? Then there absolutely no comparison. It is a completely different thing. Whether that’s worth the premium is down to whether you like it, and there isn’t a cheaper equivalent.

For American Wagyu it depends.

The “it’s Wagyu” you…

without actually ruining most of the real hardware.

Yes and no. Kobe isn’t a protected term in the US. So practically anyone can use it. And many do. Either for American Wagyu, and not neccisarily quality American Wagyu. And sometimes even just for any random beef.

Thing is it’s not typically the restaurant that’s doing this. Food labeling like this is a fuck show. And…

I just want Kung-Fu, Detective Stuff, and Cocktail Parties please.

its the way he is being filmed .

How many car doors did he rip off like tissue paper?

That can be a thing with lower frame rates. I tend not to have much issue with running things at 30fps in terms of actually noticing anything, but it definitely makes me motion sick from time to time. Especially in certain games. Supposedly it’s an input lag and motion smoothness thing.

Yerp. $65 in 1990 dollars is about $140 today.

And poke around here for a bit:

I REMEMBER THAT. Seemed like it was only sold in shops that mostly carried Macs for a long time too.

Though what I also remember is that Myst came out at the tail end of a period where paying full price for a game at release involved mailing $140 off to the dev or publisher and waiting for them to mail you a box.

I do…

China and that in other non-US markets because the raw percentage of profits the studio makes from those markets are similar.

gaming desktop from several years ago still can play new releases at top or near-top quality graphics

The point is that making sure that you do everything in your power to please China makes it a bigger pain in the ass than those other markets, so it requires a significantly higher level of effort.

international markets is that you can more or less drop a movie in the latter with minor or no changes

Industry wide. It’s also been consistently growing over time, as China has allowed more releases and certain studio series have grown more popular. It was still growing till COVID hit.

Most movies can’t get released in China. They only allow 35ish foreign films to release per year, and it’s been a fraction of that…

There are some clever ways of sidestepping some of the yellow peril stuff
