Could be anywhere, it's legal in a lot of the US but nobody partakes because it draws unwanted attention.

That's sad to hear. It's been a long time since I've played any sports games and I had a hankering recently but everything has shit reviews and I keep coming across stories like yours.

Remember a game would come out with everything you need to enjoy the game? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I shared this at work recently and nobody cared. 3 6 and 9 are all kinda special.

You must really hate going to the movies. If I spend $60-70 on a game and get 50-100+ hours of entertainment from that money spent that's a dub in my book.

If someone enjoys flight simming it's not really a question, they will buy this game because it's one of the best all-around sims.

Hah for sure, I was under the same assumption and I was doubtful but she insists. I'll take a peak when I get home.

I followed some of the fan cuts when they were first released and looked for them in the usual places but forgot the names until you mentioned it here.

I'm also looking for a fan cut of episodes 1-3 where someone cut all 3 films into a ~3 hour supercut that removes a lot of the boring and unnecessary bits. Does that sound familiar or do you know the name of that one? Thanks!

I got a tenere 700 coming from a rebel 500, both relatively light bikes but the tenere is so tall it's hard to waddle. I'd honestly love a scooter just for commuting and errands.

I live in a state where splitting is illegal but I can get away with filtering at stoplights. :)

The one on Disney Plus. My fiance never told me, she has a bluray set with the original cuts so if we go back for empire and return we'll watch those versions. I forgot how jarring and stupid all the CGI is.

Think of this as you inch forward until the green light with a motorcycle behind you. Just stop. Riding at 2 mph is misery.

Also pandas and matplotlib but maybe that's just me.

Yeah but fuck all that python is good enough for most beginners. Variables, scope, loops, functions, operators... Once you get some of the principles down switching to C++ or similar isn't nearly as bad.

Being a person that tried to learn C/C# from scratch in my early days python was a good gateway language.

I only have anecdotal data but that doesn't line up with my experience... But you might also be right.

In 2004 I bought a new Honda Civic (base trim) for $13k USD. Adjusted for inflation that's about 22.5k. Starting MSRP for a 2024 civic is apparently $24k so it's not too far off. If you factor in what you actually get, most new cars have backup cameras, sensors, collision avoidance, blind spot monitoring, better safety and presumably better handling and power deliver and efficiency. It's not that bad of a deal I suppose.

My main hangup is the amount of dollars because my salary sure as shit hasn't doubled since 2004.

Apt timing I just watched A New Hope on Saturday. 👌
