All fast food burgers suck so "the best fast food burger" is a very low bar...especially when they're charging restaurant prices....and they're not all that fast at making it. 50% higher cost for a 10% better burger, I'll pass.

It's worse than a cheaper burger from a non-chain restaurant. And it's WAY worse than a comparably-priced one.

Yeah, but the Switch 2 has significantly better hardware that will presumably remedy some of the performance issues on those games. I'd rather pay a bit more for something that will last long, I haven't had a console since the Wii

Five Guys had crazy prices from the start and it marketed itself as NOT being fast food.

And it always sucked. Premium prices on garbage food.

I don't, though, and I'm not a scalper!

It would be foolish to turn down a major role like that just because you don't like the character it's based on as long as it's not glorifying them. It was PERFECT casting and he crushed it, he's great at playing a cocky asshole

I was thinking more how they refuse to use anything but a knife when Republicans bring guns to the fight

Is that camo or is it just dirty as hell? I really can't tell

I agree but lack the words to describe why. All I can say is that I'd get the same feeling seeing someone with a big tattoo of a brand logo

 

And raised skeleton archers do crappy melee damage.

I had fun with it in my first run and decided to go summon-heavy with a spore druids in the tactician run I started this weekend. I assumed it was either a tactician difficulty change or because I was casting it as level 3...but then I unlocked level 4 and it's the same situation but with more skeles.

While looking for a list of differences in Tactician, I found a reddit thread (sorry) with people claiming it's a bug. I loaded my last game and yep, no bows! I didn't verify but people are saying the skeletons' bows get put in YOUR inventory.

They're pretty much useless without bows..except to soak hits. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

I'm doing a second playthrough and I just got to this part. It didn't make her hate me but I don't get why she'd be upset at all that I told the Absolute's precious little boy to fuck off.

How many people do you know who got interested in the game because of BG3? I imagine I'm not the only one.

I've always had a passing interest in it but my only friend who plays lives 8 hours away. I did a one shot campaign while visiting him years ago but I was totally overwhelmed. Now that I've played BG3 I'm thinking about finding a local game shop to meet some players..

 

[THIS POST CONTAINS ACT 3 SPOILERS! DUH!]

Hey everyone,

I have two small questions about the last zone but I'm afraid if I look them up I'll find more than I want to know.

I ended last night at a courtyard with enemies all around and a restoration pod out front. I saved and clicked the pod, noting it is single-use. I also aggroed by accident and saw that more enemies spawn once the fight gets going.

So my questions are:

  1. Is this one long gauntlet to the boss or are there more encounters along the way? I've had the stupid "save that for later!" mindset the whole game and I want to actually use the allies and items I've collected before the credits roll.

  2. If not, is this the last restoration pod? I'm only down a few spell slots but if it's the last opportunity to Long Rest I might as well take it

Thank you in advance!

 

"As a Linux user..."

Yeah yeah, you're right. But can you maybe shut up about it for just a minute?

USE LINUX

LINUX IS BETTER IN EVERY WAY

MICROSOFT SUCKS APPLE SUCKS GOOGLE SUCKS

THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP

 

I don't want to see a bunch of emojis instead of a name. The colors draw your eye and so far I've found none of the people who do that are worth that attention.

Is there a setting for it? Am I just blind?

 

My car got stolen 2 months ago - yep, a Hyundai - and was recovered with the obvious damage to the steering column. I took it in for repair and that security upgrade (I didn't know about it before) but between not returning and calls and trying to charge me $680 to repair the airbag spring THEY broke, they've miserable to deal with.

I got my car back last week and everything seemed fine but I didn't think to check my remote start... and last night I learned that it now set off my alarm.

I had it installed at the dealership when I bought it in 2019 but they didn't offer a Hyundai remote start as a package option so they put in a Viper system. I called them today and was told that third party starters were not their problem to fix.

I've left a message with my insurance agent because (weirdly) he's the only person involved I trust anymore and looking for answers online leads me to believe Hyundai will NOT fix it. I didn't see any success stories.

So I'm here to ask: How can I get Hyundai to do something about this? Do I have any recourse here legally? Or is this something I, a tech-savvy but not car-savvy guy could fix himself?

 

Sometimes when I'm trying to navigate the side pane, Connect only gives me a couple of options. One of which is a huge SIGN OUT button that I've accidentally clicked a half dozen times already

I don't think we even need a sign out button in that menu - imo it should be in a sub menu - but if it's gonna stay there could you shrink it way down?

Templated memes are boring trash. (self.unpopularopinion)

Everyone is entitled to like what they like so keep on posting and laughing about your memes if you're into them...but to me they are garbage and I wish the trend would die off.

I'm sure we all had that one annoying classmate growing up who incessantly quoted The Simpsons or SpongeBob...well...those quotes are the memes. That annoying kid is the "creator" of the memes. Can't come up with an original joke so they parrot what funny people have said before in an attempt to get people to think they're funny, too.

I won't go as far as to say it's joke theft but it's pretty close. Its humor wholly hinges on original joke, the memer adds a modicum of context. You've seen the original joke repeated a hundred times already, is it really still funny to you?

Whenever an expansion/dlc/whatever drops for a new game I play a game of mental bingo of the exact memes that will get posted.

Something similar to how it was before? ItsTheSamePicture.png

A cute new animal/NPC? IfAnythingHappensToHim.png

An aspect of the game that didn't get much love? DrowningSkeleton.png

Etc....just lazily slap an icon over the faces and get upvoted like crazy. It's not a complicated joke and you know the punchline already... How are you still laughing about it?

Does anyone else feel that way? The prevalence of low effort memes makes me believe this is an unpopular opinion but I can't be the only one who is tired of seeing the same jokes over and over and over

 

I like to browse for a bit while hiding and saving posts then refresh...but the posts I hid reappear when I scroll up which kind of defeats the purpose of hiding them.

I'm guessing this exists in case you accidentally hide something...but if that's the case, might I recommend a small "Undo" button that shows up for a couple seconds?

In case I'm doing a bad job communicating the issue, these are the steps to repeat:

  1. Browse ALL or any high-volume feed

  2. Hide 10-20 posts and scroll down past them

  3. Scroll back up. The posts you hid are back
