He was voted on by 14.5 million votes, which was 56% of the votes, but it is also out of a population of 45 million, and he only got 30% in the first round of votes. They have a completely different voting system to the US, so they had a second round of runoffs.
The point is, no most people in Argentina did not vote for him, but many did not vote at all.
I asked for it because I knew it was bullshit you couldn’t back up with a source that didn’t exist. Before I commented, I searched for AP articles about it and found nothing, because it doesn’t exist.
First of all, BG3 is built on the DnD 5th Edition system, (with some slight changes) so a lot of people who have played DnD are going to be very aware of the system and how it works. But to be honest, on the easier settings, it’s almost impossible to fail the game, you can do what ever you want.
A big tip for BG3 inventory management is to use the “Send to camp” option for items. Grab them whenever, they don’t take up inventory space.
I have a couple sites on Google and since they sold to square space I thought I’d try to keep my stuff there. But I can’t figure it out. Square space is a site builder with a GUI and I can’t find anywhere to just deploy my site to them as a react app. I have found a few areas where I can add some code, but they are for...

Honestly, I think this has always been the case, we are just getting better at detecting and diagnosing things. Autism was only first diagnosed in 1943, Bipolar in 1952, Anxiety disorders in 1980.
40 years ago it would have been: “Greg can be a bit moody sometimes”; turns out he’d been living with undiagnosed bipolar disorder his entire life. “Charlie is a bit strange, quiet kid, but does alright in school”; well Charlie had undiagnosed autism.
Turns out when you get better at looking for things, you find more of them. (To a certain point.)
Yeah, definitions that were written before this technology existed. I don’t base my opinions on what is legal, legality nothing more than rules determined by those in power.
Instead, I base them on what is ethical, and the consumption of material by LLMs and other AIs without the express permission of its creator is unethical.
The phantom liberty expansion is out now, and something to note is just how many roads and cars are in the game considering… well… how are they still burning fossil fuels in 2077?...
I don’t understand why you think that biofuel would be cost prohibitive in a world with literal robots, sword arms, guns with tracking bullets the ability to jack-in to cyberspace and hack shit with your mind?
Plus it’s not like 20 eddies a litre would be cost prohibitive anyway? You drop 10-15k on implants all the time.
As others have pointed out, it is intentionally meant to be a dystopian future, that is to say, a shit one. So the car prevalence could be intentional. (Also there is a public transit system in the lore, it’s just not working in the game because they never finished it.)

Well it has to be a bonus action cleric spell with concentration because throwing an object is an action, so the options are: Shield of Faith, Holy Weapon or Spirit Shroud. She’s not holding a weapon, and it doesn’t look like she’s summoning spirits of the dead, so I’m going to go with she is casting Shield of Faith.

When the review embargo first dropped, Starfield was sitting at something like an 88 on Xbox and an 89 on PC. Not 90+ the way I think Bethesda may have been hoping, and yet still extremely good.
I sat down to play it last night, got destroyed by spaceships I’m trying to kill to level up my piloting skill and access class B and C ships, went to the simulator in the UC base to get some free kills and realised I wasn’t having any fun with the game any more, so I closed the game and started playing High on Life. Had way more fun.
After the

reveal
spoiler(which I saw coming as soon as the Starborn were introduced)
I realised it’s just not fun. I can’t get into the roleplay as all the characters are bland cardboard cutouts with weird facial expressions, the only fun I was really having was the shooting which grew stale once all the enemies became bullet sponges.
The lack of city maps, the boring cutscenes for everything, clunky console first interface, drab colours, bafflingly hideous item designs, lifeless procedural planets. The factions are all boring. Permanent skills, with no respec options?! And for god’s sake, let me eat food on the ground by long pressing E.
It’s actually worse than Fallout 4, and that’s 8 years old.
