Never underestimate the urge non Americans have to make fun of America.

I wonder if there is some definition gap in what Bethesda thinks makes a good game and what make a good game in the eyes of players.

They have probably done a lot behind the scenes improvements that warrants them to say that this has been the best to work on, but clearly it's not the best to play.

This is just heartless 🙁

Because he is not a fan of the series doesn't mean that he will do a bad job or skip on source material study. I guess I will reserve my judgment until I see a couple of episodes.

Don't fruit trees need extra care and pruning, and the fruit that falls to the ground is also kind of a mess to clean up. Sturdy trees are good in the city, since they are low upkeep and very good for air quality and shade. I am however a huge fan of vertical gardens with edible plants. Imagine a whole wall with mint growing on it, that would be wicked!

Reality check: Life's more "flickering office bulb" than "cyberpunk neon dream." Guess we're stuck in Blade Runner: Budget Cut Edition.

I had bad acne issues as a teen. If I would give one simple advice to myself then I would say "just go to the doctor and get the tetracycline already. You don't have to live with it no matter if you are bullied or your parents give you alternative remedies. Just go to a doctor and it will get better!"

The worst part of acne was that it bought severe depression, and not necessarily the kind that is easy to recognize as a teen.

Money doesn't corrupt people; it's more like a truth serum for the morally flexible. It's not that money changes people; it just gives them a megaphone to broadcast their inner used car salesman.

Suddenly, those "creative accounting" skills you never knew you had emerge faster than a politician's promises during election season. It's like money has a magical power to turn "I would never" into "Well, just this once" quicker than you can say "offshore account."

No one is perfect, and money reflects the not perfect side very well in many!

Some argue that the keys should not be able to pass through the door, even with ghost interaction. I argue that my keys can metaphysicaly appear and dissappear, also behind closed doors. So those are apparently my keys! 🔑🗝

Common theory l, that I have heard is that if business owns their office space then it's value is inherently tied to profit margins. If office goes unused, value will drop, which affect bottom line, which affects boards willingness to pay out large CEO bonuses. So getting employees back into the office becomes vital for the leadership.

Brother, I am inherently lazy, I am not going to do any setup required for templates or add-ons. For simple stuff, ai generated boilerplate is good enough and it does not need maintenance as templates do.
