I'm curious about how you propose this would be done...

[–] Carighan 10 points 1 day ago

Totally not the point, and it was obvious, but hey, if you want to be offended instead of engaging with the thread, that's your perogative.

I'm sorry to say this, but I don't need the extra space for H-cups my ex needed. 😅 All depends on your specific body, but there are good reasons for all kinds of specific clothing shapes existing from extremely slim-fitting muscular shorts and super-spindly trousers all the way to saggy super-long shirts most people use for sleeping, Y-shaped t-shirts for big cup sizes and plus-sizes on suits.

🤷

People have different body shapes, you know? And sure, you could say "Buy why isn't every design available in every shape then?!", to which I'd say that I guess in an ideal world it would be but as a company you got to draw a line somewhere because manufacturing, logistics and storage costs are a thing. But if you look at say redbubble, they'll sell you virtually any design on 50-80 different articles of clothing independent of which one it is.

There's some... weird things though, granted. Like how you can tell "made for women"-trousers because a) the button is on the left and b) the pockets are ridiculously tiny.

Yeah it's a difference when it's a cleaver, something meant to apply raw force, and hence needs a certain weight to be usable.

But a knife?!

There were a lot of very public cases of people trying to or threatening to add poison to cereals, after all. Something like 30+ years ago of course, but it might have influenced this.

Found another problem with your oven, get one from this turn of the century! :P

No they're just catastrophically xenophobic and racist. I mean, that's essentially what their country was founded on, so I'm hardly surprsed.

Always keep in mind that the american democratic part is a center-right conservative party from virtually any non-US perspective. Contrary to the republicans, which are a christofascist-ultranationalist conservative party. But they're both conservatives. They don't like to work, they just want to make the rich richer.

Now, I should say, in particular the democrats do have plenty individual members who got the right ideas and do the right work. But they are struggling against an old party block that is used to never yanking the chain because they're hte ones benefitting from the status quo, and who are also by now too old to mind fallout from stuff like Trump in office or climate change as they'll die from old age in a few years anyways.

And it's not like Boeing is doing well getting safe planes into the air even with the FAA working at full capacity, so it might be time to order more "You're Boeing to die"-shirts from WTYP's merch store.

What if it's a live service book?!

I miss mercurial and it's far more sensical flags and commands...

Oh that's exciting, I thought it was dead.

Reminds me of seeing how long it has been (a bit over 4 years) since a good friend of mine was last online in Steam. Died suddenly before christmas. RIP. :'(

 

From Admiral Cloudberg's air crash series, of course.

On the 19th of May 2016, an Airbus A320 en route from Paris to Cairo disappeared from radar at cruising altitude over the Mediterranean Sea, spiraling to its doom from 37,000 feet until it was dashed against the night-black water. What caused the loss of the EgyptAir flight and its 66 occupants should have been uncovered by a straightforward inquiry, but instead, the case quickly evolved into one of the more unnerving and unnecessary mysteries of 21st century aviation. The problem wasn’t that investigators couldn’t find the cause — it was that not all of them seemingly wanted to.

 

The big highlights:

  • New DoH/DoL quests in Wachumeqimeqi
  • Inconceivably further Hildibrand adventures!
  • New custom deliveries NPC

Chaotic Alliance raids arrives in one week, on the 24th (which is a weird date for new content, I'll be honest).

 

As we can see, there is a small performance hit with NVIDIA App. However, it’s nowhere close to what has been reported. On our PC system, it’s around 4-6%. And that’s mostly in CPU-bound areas. For instance, in Indiana Jones which is a GPU-bound game with Path Tracing, there isn’t any performance hit at all.

Ridiculous that this was even a discussion.

But don't let her hear I said that, she's 12 and obviously the youngest kitten possible! (she's not tiny, the bed is just oversized)

 

Not sure how particulary I think about it.

I kinda agree though because, honestly, I genuinely like prodding at RL-issues in my video games, but if the best the writers can do is some MCU-level shit that I would expect in Forspoken or Fortnite, then I really wish they'd not. It just feels like making fun of transgender people with how terrible the scene's dialogue is (there's a video in the article).

Plus, as the update says, they couldn't even be arsed to search through the previous games for whether this was already talked about.

Sigh.

Still, the game is far better than I expected it to be, so this isn't just a rant, but I wish the dialogue in particular had decent writing behind it, it breaks immersion near-constantly even if the general scene and story were done well.
