I believe that’s what I was thinking of, thanks

Wasn’t it among the games shown somewhere where they staded all games shown will be “releasing within a year” well over a year ago?

Maybe she just wants to lick away the beard?

Yeah, no civilization can get rid of bad people. It just gives them camouflage

In my native language just the first word gets capitalized in a title. I don’t think anyone ever explained to me why English capitalizes (almost) every word.

It’s kinda weird that this makes perfect sense.

Pros: you have a weekend when other people don’t. So wherever you want to go, there will likely be less people there (thoug do account for morning and evening workday traffic). Some places you may need to go to may be closed on weekends, but you won’t face this issue.

Cons: you have weekend when other people don’t… If you want to do something with other people, you will likely be limited to evenings.

It’s nice if you have a close person who can have similar week schedule like you, or if you just want to do stuff by yourself. I did use work like that (though I didn’t have fixed days) and it had its perks for sure. Split days off may be manageable sometimes, but it is a terrible idea longterm. Might work forbyou, we are all different - but I’d advise against it. Go for it sometimes if you need to change shifts with someone (especially if you could get a 3 day “weekend” out of it), but I’d advise against having it fixed like that.

Idk, people usually look at me weird if I do this

I imagined it being thick enoug to not bend easily. But I guess if it could, either the portal would somehow prevent it or expire

Well then I fucked up I guess :D don’t remember this detail

Best use would be to get two steel plates or something, of apropriate dimensions for portals and shoot them there. Now I have two portals I can move as I please and where I please

They are getting bolder and don’t feel the need to hide it at all. And why should they? It’s only a “controversial salute” now. Next up, racism and xenophobia rebranding to “controversial views”

By definition it is selfish I’d say. BUT! Huge “but” here, like you wouldn’t believe - sometimes it is alright to be selfish. Sometimes you just need to put yourself first. This is most definitely one of those times.

Both Legs, hands down.

Congratulatioms, you have no limbs now

I will provide a point of view of someone who is a bit more pro “live service game” concept.

While I agree these can be scummy it depends on the game. I see them as evolution of the subscription model on which most MMORPGs functioned back in the day (and few big ones and several niche ones still do). You used to pay monthly sub to be able to play the game, now you have the opportunity to pay for the season pass. Depending on specific game you get content for free (no neex to pay the sub to access the content) and alonv with the content they will launch a season pass which gives you some goodies for playing. Gives them engagement numbers and expectable revenue stream.

In the above model, I usually decide whether I like the content that they bring and if I would realistically play it enough to get majority ofnthe rewards from the pass (because, and this isnthe worst part - once the season ends in 99% of the cases the pass goes away and its rewards are gone forever if you didn’t have time to earn them). Then there are also games like Destiny where the content is not free but tied to the pass, so you basically purchase x months of content (+the rewards from the pass).

There are many shades of season passes - some could be considered fair, some are alright, some are ignorable and some are bad. All of them are made to make money - which in a live service game is I think fair, as they need to fund the ongoing developement. It all depends on the way they want to takenyour money: can be used as a nice bonus you can purchase if you are enjoying the game - in which case I’m fine with it. It can be used so they want to manipulate you through various way to feel forced to purchase - in which case I’m very much oposed to it.

Though I think we all agree that the part when the rewards you purchased are only available temporarily is a scam and shouldn’t be a thing - and I do realize I will be called out here for sometimes purchasing them. I try to view them as simply making a voluntary payment for the content I got from the devs. And the rewards tied to it a bonus.

I’m a layman in terms if AI but I think it can be a useful tool, if used in proper context. I use it when I struggle to find something by regular internet search. The fact you can search in a conversational style and specify as you go on what you need is great.

I feel it is pushed into contexts where it has no place and where it’s usefulness is limited or counterproductive.

Then there is the question of the inproper use of copyrighted material which is terrible

Ok, I’m not Polish (hopefully somebody Polish will chime in soon) but from neighbouring Slavic country so tried to figure this out with some translator help. My gues it’s something like “tam idzje” (or close to it, might not be comoletely gramatically correct), but pretty butchered - I understand your father doesn’t speak the language but probably heard someone in family as a kid say it and tried his best to mimic them? I’d expect it not sounding quite right.

I think I can get reasonably close to pronouncing “tam idzje” weirdly enough for it to sound something like “yadja”.

Not following it closely but afaik on way to it, but not there yet.

Also doesn’t seem like there is an app for it?

Agreed, but adjusting tactics often is part of the puzzle, no? You need to solve the puzzle (find out what work = changing tactics) and then executing that solution

Might have been a cash grab - in fact it likely was. But I tend to reserve my judgement. I’m not on the live service hate train - in fact I’m often interested in what they might have on offer. I like to have a main game, and live service games are great for people like me as there is always something to look forward to. And I for one fucking hate the constant cach grab fails.

People always hate on live service games just because of the label, but there is serious lack of good live service games compared to good single player games.

My comment migh’ve come partyl from a place of frustration so apologies if I was harsh or something
