Is it the kind of discomfort one feels when they need to use a bathroom but there is only one for a 10,000 person event? Or the kind of discomfort one feels when it's a record heat wave but a bottle of water is $20 and despite advertising free water stations, there are none? Oh or maybe the discomfort in paying mystery fees that equal the price of the ticket?

Or maybe the kind of discomfort that only an illegitimate business model about to be exposed would evoke?

I'm going to laugh my ass off when someone figures out how to track them all in real time, and shares it on a publicly accessible website.

Just seeing a turn signal on a Mercedes or BMW is enough for me to assume the driver isn't the one in control.

I'm convinced this whole tiktok is manipulating the algorithm thing is actually US propaganda.

AFAIK the digital deluxe edition allows you to start playing 5 days early.

Strategic military foothold in the Middle East.

Because you can just mute it and it becomes regular porn, so it does double duty.

I never understood the appeal of twitter before Elon bought it, and I understand it less with every news report about it since.

It's easy when you put your mind to it.

2 and 7, obviously. Good luck anyone carrying an empty box within my vicinity.

What implications will this have for people who post other people's content for profit? Karma being worthless was the only thing keeping the whole model in a grey area, I thought.

I mean just imagine if even one person changes their vote to Democrat based on something they read on truth social, it would all be worth it.

Oh cool I didn't know that existed, thanks Nintendo!

Anything you eat that is not directly from me can kill you. Find something you want to eat, and I'll trade you treats for it. No questions asked. Especially other dogs poop. I love you.

I'm just happy to know others acknowledge that bearglove (and wolfthorne) are the best smelling wildly available deodorants. White is antiperspirant, blue is still just deodorant.

The only people staying after work for any reason, be it social or overtime, are the parents avoiding their kids. They make everyone else look bad, but it's them who should be shamed.

Among the big three, the whopper by a whopper.

Otherwise yeah, my local is better than your local nah nah nah boo boo

It at the very least plays to his base, who likely have a McDonald's in town. Where as the curry from brick Lane likely wouldn't sit well with his followers, let alone his own digestive system.

My opinion is they were garbage in the 80s/90s too. I would wear the soles down like an eraser in a matter of months. Warranty or not, that's not bifl to me.

I have mild sleep apnea and a night device that improves my airways has eliminated my sinus congestion in the mornings. Talk to a dentist that specializes in sleep apnea.

Politicians

We could very easily vote on most issues ourselves using the wide array of technology at our fingertips, with a similar or possible better sense of security than what politicians currently provide.

But the only way for that to happen is for politicians to make it happen, and who would vote to eliminate their own job? No one.

If I remember the statistic correctly, 30,000 new registrants within the first hour after she posted about registering to vote.

Even if we assume a rate of decay, that is pretty significant.

Open, because I have a split AC in the living room of my bungalow and the bedrooms get warm even with the doors open. Also the dog and cat would never allow a closed door, and they rule this roost.

NOFX Dropkick Murphy's Specials Green Day (for nostalgia) Fucked up

doom scrolling past all the German and Linux posts

Zombie apocalypse game with souls like combat but all slow zombies. The game takes your GPS coordinates (or any coordinates you enter) and uses a maps API call to generate the game map based on the real world. It would take things like residential/commercial/industrial areas and generate similar structures but not exact to not be a privacy issue. All major landmarks would be generated. So you could start from your house, or the Eiffel tower, or the middle of the Amazon. Things like grocery stores and malls and schools would be in similar locations, roads and highways etc.

The game would generate slightly different every time you create a map so while always based on the real world, things would be different.

You then must rescue your partner who is across the map (random generated) and find shelter.

There would be some crafting and survival mechanics, but mostly action based combat, skills to level up etc. Minimal if non-existent gunplay, though I'd be open to it if done well.

Very gorey, rogue like/light with persistent stats and incremental style progression (get so far then reset/start new map with higher their upgrades)

So think dead rising meets dark souls, mixed with vampire survivors and incremental games, all with this AR framework. I also considered a multiplayer persistent map br style mode but would prefer a single player experience myself

Wow OP it's like we had the same childhood. That opening sequence and the early parts of LTTP are seared into my memory. +1

Decided to give cs2 a shot, probably haven't played CS since shortly after csgo was released. Community seems worse, but do those reflexes kick back in even when you're an old man, and hearing the laments from young people as you mop the floor with them is an unexpected joy.

Well how do you explain why I suddenly get full bars when I point my phone toward your butt?

After that, I have a NOS. Energy Drinks are the socially acceptable morning beverage that isn't coffee.

That's how I got my first and hopefully last kidney stone.

My gf got it for me for Christmas and it hurts my soul to have only used it a couple times since, but there's so few games and I can't wear it for more that 30 minutes without my face sweating, shoulders aching and the screen is so small, where is the full field of view wtf is the point of a tiny screen strapped to your face?

How many Basset Hound owners are wannabe tough guys? Not trying to excuse the behaviour, but there is definitely at least a correlation between behaviour of the dogs and that of their owners.

Tried it, doesn't work, teeth still get stained and I just but the shit out of my mouth.

E.V.O. Search for Eden

3080ti here at 3440x1440 and I don't think I've ever dipped below 150 FPS, and whenever I look it's in the mid 200's

Falling down a flight of stairs, or otherwise tripping on something.

When I was younger it was dreams about infinitely large objects, usually a cube.

Dysmantle, great little indie game I played on PC back in EA but now enjoying the final product on PS5 as it was included in PS Extra

You smash the environment and zombies to level up and find parts to build new weapons and tools. The game is a bit wonky but the satisfaction of getting that new weapon to be able to break down larger objects is addicting. Will set you back 20+ hours at least.

Do we need it? I'm not sure, but I am sure that all things cloud is an inevitability.

I know this won't be popular, but I just upgraded my decades old, unused Hotmail account to outlook, signed in to Windows during install, and have never seen anything about logging in since I did so years ago...
