It’s not a binge watch until you die from dehydration kind of franchise. It’s just good vibes short stories. You can pop almost any episode on the screen and bask in the benignness of FALGSC for 30 minutes.
I like how casually you talk about a few tens of thousands of people being murdered and millions more made homeless. As long as we get the one guy, infinite murder is justified!
Mine already was 95% developed before EA’s investors shit their pants over holiday season sales.
I can play a free-to-play shell of it now, but my closest friends are all gone now. What fun is a 4-to-8 player game when everybody you wanted to play it with is dead or gone?
Due to my still active non-disclosure agreement, I am prohibited from discussing what intellectual properties BioWare Austin are working on for release in 2011.
I’m a heavy emoji user, texting is such a poor medium for communication, many times people get the wrong message, but with an emoji you’ll get an idea of the face I’m making, so less chance of misunderstanding...
I’m in a nasty frame of mind right now, and this is what my 'tism brain decided to laser focus on for several hours. I’m mad that my light bulbs cost 10x more than they used to, and don’t last any longer, and my power bill is higher than ever....
I want to be able to offer exclusively vegan dishes at Bancho Sushi, but dishes that involve the rape and murder of sentient shrimp are bigger money makers.
I’m writing this as someone who has mostly lived in the US and Canada. Personally, I find the whole “lying to children about Christmas” thing just a bit weird (no judgment on those who enjoy this aspect of the holiday). But because it’s completely normalized in our culture, this is something many people have to deal...
In a modern survey of Jesus is Definitely Real and Was The Son of God and Died and Rose Again for Our Sins scholars, they unanimously believe that Jesus was real.
Do not argue against it. It’s on Wikipedia. Those are the guys who were cited, so he’s real.
We used Santa (et al.) as an exercise in critical thinking. Outside of saying, “Yep, the Easter Bunny did it.” we never directly lied about it. If they asked a question about it, we answered truthfully.
Child: “Whoa, how does he visit all those homes in one night?”
Dad: “It’s impossible unless he uses magic.”
C: “Whoa magic is real??”
D: “Nope.”
They all figured it out on their own before they hit grade school.
I do. Windows 11 is just a bunch of bloatware and ads stuffed in a trenchcoat. I want to be able to use all those rams and GBs I downloaded, without half them being tied up in tracking.
All the incognito browser windows share the same “session” in Firefox. So say you open an Incognito window to browse Facebook or something, then you open another Incognito window, this new incognito window is linked to the previous incognito window, meaning you are logged into Facebook at that new Incognito window as well....
Does incognito mode do anything that temporary containers don’t? In a world of 2FA key password managers, having to log in every session is super easy—barely an inconvenience.
I’m kind of a dumb guy about computers, but destroying everything every time seemed like a smart call.
It may shock you to learn that countries exist outside of the US, and they have different laws. Notably, Germany (the place in question) has copyright enforcement with actual teeth.
You quietly comply. Then take tougher security measures to protect yourself before continuing. Do not respond under any circumstances. If you’re served with actual legal papers, retain an attorney.
That only works on desktop. On mobile, you need to hold volume up and power, release when the device reboots, scroll to recovery mode using the volume keys, then choose factory reset
“Responsive design” that ignores me when I ask for the desktop site. Yes, I know it isn’t “optimized for my resolution”. Show it to me any way, damn it.
Only the US and America Jr. will kill 20 percent of a population, establish a right wing military dictatorship in the south, and paint the democratic and progressive north as an evil regime worse than an absolute monarchy.

There’s no buts on this one. Hindu food offerings are intended to be eaten by attendees. This is just a nationalist hate crime with a thin veneer of religion as pretext.
