I really want a Kei Truck, and I can't be the only one.

FF7 remake’s battle system sucks. Some spells whiff so often they’re basically useless (aero against Eligor anyone?), punisher mode is so much better than operator mode there’s no real point in having the latter except for the fact that punisher’s walk speed is awful, the roll’s terrible range and lack of I-frames make it borderline pointless, items shouldn’t use ATB gauge, and guard break is a stupid mechanic that just stretches out fights while making making them less fun.

I think it's important to also mention Wabush, a very remote town mostly known for being referenced in "chu parké à Wabush", which means "I parked my car in Wabush", thus implying that said parking spot was very bad which resulted in a long walk to the desired destination, often causing one to be late.

I had a period of extremely productive work a while back when putting on late '90s early 2000s teen comedies in the background. I got so much done while 10 Things I Hate About You and Can't Hardly Wait were playing in the background.

This is going to ruin my parody LinkedIn account, very upset about this.

Anybody remember ATRAC? No? Just me? Probably just me.

Unfortunately not all the fats could run PS2 games, only the CECHAxx and CECHBxx (NTSC) had the hardware to run PS2 games. The early PAL models (CECHCxx and CECHExx) had software emulation apparently, dunno if it was any good. I hunted down a fat model specifically because I wanted the backwards compatibility, can't remember which model I ended up buying, but it was not a backwards compatible one. Very disappointed at the time, but I was still sad when it died.

Also the possiblity to dualboot Linux was patched out pretty quickly if I remember correctly, people were pretty peeved about it.

Beat me to it

Actually that's not strange, Marle was kinda sorta based on Primm. When development for Chrono Trigger began, Akira Toriyama was asked to make characters, and he was told he could use the SoM characters as inspiration or something along those lines, and he made Chrono and Marle basically as a DTIYS of Randy and Primm.

Probably like most people here, I just got more and more fed up with Windows. I tried Ubuntu a few times in the past, but it never really stuck, and at the time Windows wasn’t quite as bad (I quite liked Windows 7 in all honesty). But as time went on with Win10, it kept moving in a direction I didn’t want and I kept trying to customize it to my liking, and an update would just mess a bunch of stuff up and just make the whole experience worst. Recently it started having issues with my multiple monitors, shutdown and sleep/hibernate were basically broken, Bluetooth would randomly stop working, it was just a lot of aggravation.

I’m only a few weeks into my grand Linux adventure, but I’ve got almost all of the functionality that I need from Windows with none of the frustrations, and it’s way faster on top of that. Right now I can’t see myself going back.

At the risk of looking like a corporate shill, I going to say the new green building standards are painfully strict. And while yes, that's ultimately a good thing for the environment, it is a stick in the wheel to fixing the housing crisis.

I don't have the numbers for all of Canada, but in Quebec the private sector supposedly builds about 50 000 to 60 000 homes per year, and to "stabilize prices" - not sure what that means, but I know it doesn't mean reducing prices - would involve building about 150 000 units per year, FOR TEN YEARS. The govt usually pats itself on the back for building a few thousand units in a year, so we're still basically short a hundred thousand units. I get that the govt should just step in a build, but let's be real, it's not going to happen. Even if it wanted to, the workforce would have to be about 3 times the size it currently is, which is another nightmare to deal with.

On a personal level, as a person who works in the industry, I'm not looking forward to the new standards. The new energy-saving stuff often require solutions that involve proprietary systems from large companies that are a pain to work with. Developers aren't really going to be taking a cut anyway, they'll just charge more, or starve the market until it's profitable enough to build again. And then those propriety systems corpos are going to cash in, too.

I wish the govt would just put its pants on and build tons of affordable housing.

Unless it doesn't work for you, it's yours. I sent you a PM.

No problem. Hope you enjoy the game.

Came back to say I bought this one last friday, thanks for the suggestion.

In Portable, there is he option of playing as a female protagonist (I've never played Portable). Reload also doesn't have the FES epilogue The Answer, but I've never managed to play through it myself.

On some level, I'm not all that bothered by these things. All I really want from a remake is to not make it worse, and right now some aspects of the game are definitely worse.

Once I learned about the shit vortex (technically called toilet plumes) there was no way I wasn't going to close the lid.

I have something a bit similar, when I walk on a crack in the sidewalk with one foot, I have to walk on a similar crack the same spot on my other foot otherwise things feel "unbalanced"

If it has a shitton of ports in the front, USB and SD card and all sorts of stuff, there's a good chance. If it only has 2 USB ports, probably not.
