So mother is in the 12th hour of labor, she can just morally request an abortion? What if the baby is crowning? How about before the cord is clamped or cut? What about the day before a C-section?

Diablo, dragon age, dynasty warriors/Hyrule warriors, monster hunter, the older lord of the rings games, vermintide 2.

Grand strategy games aren’t for me, but I love reading the insane stories from CKII and Dwarf Fortress.

4 was already incoherent and awkward. A 5th feels like an intervention is in order for anyone wanting it.

Discovery sucks in the fediverse, so it causes a lot of fractured and spammed content until hopefully everyone migrates to a stable community. Otherwise everyone eventually leaves as there appears to be no interest in a topic due to the fragmentation.

The lab leak theory was dismissed because there was a lot of powerful people that didn’t want any serious investigation into it. China was 100% against the lab leak theory. Fauci and the CDC were also against the lab leak theory as he was directly responsible for funding gain of function research in the most likely lab, which had been widely criticised as extremely risky research.

It also makes an incredible conspiracy theory because it’s essentially impossible to prove either way at this point.

Amazon hasn’t been the cheapest for things in a long time. There’s a few segments where they are competitive, but it’s generally only small things that are cheaper to ship. The more people that learn this the better.

There was a time when you could have kitty litter delivered to your home for less than it cost at a local store, but that hasn’t been the case for a almost a decade.

A total shutdown is far more likely to hurt trump and the Republicans. The Democrats by supporting this are letting certain Republicans oppose it.

The same is also true for liquor, though it’s a state agency that enforces the laws.

Many pre WWII guns that were broken or unwanted were scrapped in metal drives to support the war effort.

In modern times there are several ways they can get used.

• some will get cannibalized for parts by gunsmiths
• some get used for artwork.
• many are scrapped after gun buyback programs
• some are lost in trash or bodies of water both on purpose or accidentally

The problem is a second launcher or library is a pain in the ass for a user. I already avoid GoG unless it’s massively cheaper, and there’s the no drm benefits there. I’m not even interested in free games on epic.

Epic is the latest example that’s trying. EA gave up that fight years ago, and probably had better shot than Epic ever will.

Most the article makes no sense, but the Mac stuff is really weird. This 18 year old YouTube video is still accurate about the Mac part. https://youtu.be/2B-ekl_cEWk

An article that could have discussed some actual problems with steam, but instead focused on non-issues like epic having a garbage store.

Much better performance is a bit of an exaggeration. Switch games are running at similar fps and resolutions to 360 games.

It’s still a reasonable rule, with a few outliers. For the switch specifically, you could make a reasonable argument it was retro on launch, with cartridges and massively underpowered hardware.

Innis has awesome art and the most unique tiles that are technically hexes.

The gears in Tzolkin make it such a unique game.

The entirety of Too Many Bones is awesome components. The massive over engineering leads to a fun experience. Neoprene mats with cutouts for dice, plastic cards and player aids, weighted poker chips for characters and baddies, and screen printed dice with tons of unique artwork.

I think using emulation as the benchmark for what makes a console retro can be a useful rule of thumb. By that metric I don’t think the 360 is retro yet as emulation isn’t quite mainstream or functional for the majority of titles. It’s probably getting close though.

Retreating to PC makes sense, because PC won the console war.
