Agreed, just that their plan is so robust and so specific something like “make porn illegal” doesn’t translate well to “make porn super legal”.

That said, the more I think about specific examples the more it’s they want to move further in a shitty direction, and moving about that far in the opposite direction sounds about right.

Edit: and I do like your point that they already put in the effort identifying everything that should be changed :D

Yeah, abjectly hate conversation view.

Yes.

More seriously, although they’re wrong on every point, the obvious inverse isn’t always a clear gameplan for improvement.

Looks like Peeve could use a knit cat cap…

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagliatelle

Tagliatelle (Italian: [taʎʎaˈtɛlle] ⓘ; from the Italian word tagliare, meaning ‘to cut’) are a traditional type of pasta from the Italian regions of Emilia-Romagna and Marche. Individual pieces of tagliatelle are long, flat ribbons that are similar in shape to fettuccine and are traditionally about 6 mm (1⁄4 in) wide.[1] Tagliatelle can be served with a variety of sauces, though the classic is a meat sauce or Bolognese sauce.

Web search used to be about scraping the web to find and present other people’s work as just that… their work. Now the handful of websites claim ownership of the contributions of everyone, and at this point it’s just corporations arguing about who owns your stuff. Pirates will not win out in this argument, except maybe in the very short term.

As you said there are people who don’t want to switch from Chrome and Google, but at this point if you’re talking about a ten step fix-it plan, is really does make more sense to just use Firefox and DDG. Or searx, I’m pretty sure that’s still fewer steps.

Both are great games, with 1 being a little rough around the edges but still very playable. The gameplay is different enough that it’s worth playing them both imo. Story might be better if you play 1 first, but I played through 2 first, then went back later to play 1 and was pleasantly surprised how good it was.

I probably vehemently disagree with some recommendations to play BG 1 and 2 btw, your mileage may vary. It requires very specific builds and knowledge of DnD, or lots of trial and error. You can easily build a well rounded group and find yourself unable to progress because of lacking one very specific thing. If that doesn’t sound to annoying, it might be worth a shot. If nothing else, rolling characters is fun.

I didn’t see these in the list:

Wyldermyth - indie fairly unique story building campaign with turn based tactical combat.

Wastelands 3 - post apocalyptic RPG with good story, choices, and characters. Great tactical turn based combat. Other than the other Larian games this is closest to filling the BG 3 shaped hole.

Halo Master Chief Collection; 1 - 3, Reach, and ODST are amazing co-op. We’ve played through all of them multiple times. 4 is… disappointing.

Holy fuck, that’s horrible

Was there not a whole team? It’s not a solo procedure.

Huh, the quote with context is actually much worse than the headline. I’m impressed.

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth

Logitech mice always get better with age, they give you extra clicks for free with each touch of the button!

Doesn’t sound like a design flaw, it’s the whole point, only reason you need a cancellation portal.

Maybe just protect everyone’s right to privacy?

Their enforcement mechanism ensure the opposite.

Wow, that’s one more season that I knew about, assumed it’d never go beyond the first.

I don’t think the look good.

And literally never thought about it more than that.

So people may not really know what they’re for, just that they’re “old-fashioned”. Not sure how to make them trendy but that seems to be a deciding factor in how people invest in their homes. Maybe sell them with “live laugh love” printed on the front with wine bottles dangling from the corners?

So to fix that all they need to do is endanger some trees? Seems easy enough to fix.

Who actually pulled the trigger? Who paid to go trophy hunting? Who paid so much to go trophy hunting that it counter balances all of the funds that would come from tourism and preservation organizations?

Also, half the article that discusses support for trophy hunting still doesn’t explain why this specific occurrence was allowed, even if all of the general justification are both valid and reasonable.
