Outer Wilds gave me super anxiety when playing it. Something about the time loop aspect and having to redo a bunch of stuff.

Wait, what do they say about people who play minesweeper?

Is this post saying that if the landlord CAN afford the house without you paying rent, then it's justified, and in that case they ARE providing you housing?

Yes because it's a customization option and having more options is always better IMO

Finally! Hopefully Samsung does the same thing in oneUI

As someone who's watched all the anime and read all the manga from the beginning, I've been watching the live action and so far really enjoying it.

No, the plot is not entirely accurate, the characters aren't 100% the same, but honestly I wouldn't want them to be. The One Piece manga and anime just wouldn't translate 100% to live action and be a good show. I think the adaptation and the changes they make work very well for a live action show (without spoiling anything).

The things they needed to get right, they did, IMO. For example, Luffy's pure optimism, the relationship within the straw hat crew, the emotional scenes (I cried a few times)...

A lot of people expect and want to see a 100% faithful adaptation, but that doesn't make sense to me. If I wanted to watch/read One Piece, I would just watch the anime or read the manga. As a OP fan, the live action serves a specific purpose for me which is just to relive some of the moments I watched as a kid with real people and to see different take on the story. I think the show achieved that.

Exactly. I don't care if it's 3.5mm or usb-c, it's the quantity of ports that matters.

Yeah I thought the same. They're talking specifically about the event that happened on Lothal. Still not sure why they didn't just say a specific number instead of just "a few years ago" but that was my understanding.

Not saying you're wrong and I'm not a lawyer either so I don't know, but that sounds pretty stupid for multiple reasons.

  1. How would any website moderator even be able to moderate their site and report it to the authority if just by reporting it they're confessing to doing something illegal. There would be nothing stopping people from posting it everywhere if there's no legal mechanism for reporting it.
  2. "Possession" a.k.a ownership is a huge part of the law. You can't just say that just because I'm aware of something existing, I'm in possession of it. By that logic I can go to any jewelry store, look at a diamond and it becomes mine.

I have all my fingers crossed that we'll see a more agreeable, Zahn verstion of Thrawn, instead of just a ruthless, ends justify the means kind of character.

Luthen's monologue in Andor. Some of the best dialogue in all of Star Wars.

The Vader hallway scene gives me chills every time. We need more Vader badassery in live action.
