Like they wrote their own platform to automate front end automation? Thats... a choice

Couldn't agree with this more. First few seasons they find their footing, but when they do they have some of the most incredible story lines and pay offs. It has become my favorite.

If you're really struggling you can probably watch the episodes rated 7.0+ on IMDb in seasons 1 and 2 and still get a lot of what's happening in season 3 and later, but you'll definitely miss some backstory. Deep space nine being stationary generally did a good job with continuing characters and stories over time imo.

Why I think people are praising the helldivers2 monetization is that isn't the case. The "premium currency" is earnable in game and at a reasonable. I haven't bought any but still have the battlepass and a few of the premium armors.

You get it as part of the battlepass, and the gameplay loop guides you to the currency. You'll be looking for ammo or in game currency, and there also happens to be premium currency sometimes. The battlepass not being timed and on a work at your own pace is great too.

It feels fair to me? Like the developer can still make a buck but not ruin the experience. I.e. the monetization lets people pay to instantly gratify if they want vs punish you for not spending.

Neat! With a workshop like that is it your job too or does it remain hobby/side pursuit.

I know a few people who have setup workspace for fishing and fishing related thing (lures, rods, etc) but still do it on the side.

Very much so, they have become a status symbol for some people.

They used to be incredibly well made, I believe they still are but the draw for many people is the name and known high price tag.

I regularly go to these stores, and I wonder why they are so close. It's handy since one or two times one store had something the other didn't. It's a bit more than just crossing the street but not much.

Galleria is in the second story inside an indoor mall. Americana is an outdoor mall, and they are even on the sides closer to each other.

But would it taste better out of the hello kitty glass...

Yea, I think if they were offered severance as part of dismissal/layoff and it had a non compete they could lose that. Beyond that, it doesn't hold much water in CA for the employees.

👏 bravo, this is fantastic!

16 was still $75 last time I saw it at Costco. Total wine I think near me is $80. If those are options for you, I think it's great at those prices but at $100+ other interesting things are available

My first run I made the sword and I regretted it. Armors are pretty good picks, I didn't realize the shield was so good. I didn't really use them this last run, but something to think about for my next one...
