I think of this reviewer as being someone who deeply loves this franchise but just ground the previous game into powder. This new release is their only opportunity to revisit the franchise they love. Despite being very disappointed, it still beats not playing in that world.

For someone like me, I think this is a helpful and honest review. There are many reasons for larger play time that are unrelated to game quality. I don't personally consider it to be an indicator. I think I already also have issues with using it as a measure like $/h. It sort of seems problematic to always be asking "how long will this entertain me?". I feel like we should be valuing other aspects more highly.

Oh, this one's easy the way I understand things work now.

He is both former AND current, so fire up the mint.

This is very likely real, here is the issued guidance from OPM including the template.

I'm not quite sure about this one. I think that the current design on the reverse is an issue. But the front doesn't seem to break any laws.

I'm assuming they print these under subsection Y of 31 U.S. Code § 5112 - Denominations, specifications, and design of coins. Which pertains to these 250th anniversary coins.

The part I see mentioned in this thread frequently applies to a separate subsection (n) for a run of $1 presidential coins that has since ended.

If you just read subsection Y in a vacuum, they are good to go. This part at the bottom though says that the reverse can't be a 'portrait'.

So this isn't really slam dunk illegal, but I don't think that the draft of the coins reverse will make it to print. I would fully expect the front to come out just like that though based on my interpretation.

(aa)Standards and General Provisions for Circulating Collectible Coins Under Subsections (x), (y), and (z).—

(1)Prohibition on certain representations.—

No head and shoulders portrait or bust of any person, living or dead, and no portrait of a living person may be included in the design on the reverse of any coin under subsections (x), (y), and (z).

I got a Rocket League key from 2016, why in the world would anyone want that? Can I see if it's redeemed without using it? If you want to broker for a cut send me a DM and we can start figuring out what's in here, I probably have other things too.

The time is now! Children are our future! America can, should, and will blow up the moon!

Would anyone be willing to offer their opinion on a comparison with Adguard Home?

Last week I was upgrading an old pi hole installation and ultimately decided to switch for awhile. Found the wild card blocking on Adguard to be quite nice for the pop ups that point out you're using an ad blocker.

But really the more technical details are a bit out of my wheel house, so if anyone could weigh in perhaps if with this new version one of them has clearly pulled ahead or they are so similar it doesn't really matter?

Spearmint!?

You up to talk shop? I'm staring down the barrel of a similar task I've been putting off until I have a puzzle mood type of day. But also worried about doing it well because there's definitely more. How do you usually start to approach migrating legacy systems?

Access SQL is just slightly different syntax to what I know, I can usually translate but it's slow because it's all one big block. I started by using PowerShell to dump all the objects and query text into Excel so I could find all the connections. Some broken down at some point so half the data is on the server. This thing serves as kind of like an ETL tool and they have two access DBs for front and back end seems like, using data from server, file system, local access tables. There's a bit of looks like VBA in there too propping up the forms.

What thread do you pull first to unravel the Gordian knot? Access is a bit out of my wheel house. Bravo to the cowboy business users who were able to get the job done, but it's hard for me to parse and of course they are retired so no SME to speak of.

Lend me your wisdom, please.

Strange loops

I've always wondered where some of the samples on this album came from. Great tracks and energy the whole way through.

"And here at the Corporate Institutional Bank of Time, we find ourselves reflecting, finding out that in fact, we came back. We were always coming back..."

Try switching to Parry Grip, some of it is OK and the catalogue is big enough they don't really get stuck.

And just to show solidarity the other day my kid just kept 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'ing for what felt like a half hour without a single 'heroes in a half shell' to round it off.

Great call, you have to be careful that you get the color version!

I lost my original copy and when I replaced it, there was no more color. Had to return that one to find one with color. I think it adds so much.

So close, should be "Hey, Bob!". Actually, "Hey, Alice!" Might be funnier.

The website says 99.9% but also that the level was cleared by cardigacimeira?

Mothership does something similar, when someone goes down you roll in the dice in a cup and turn it over so no one knows the result unless they spend a turn doing triage. The drama is so intense since the situations are usually really frantic.

Works for me, but I'm biased because that guy writes phenomenal short stories.

We use silicon bags and magnets. You let the top of the bag drape over the side of the bucket(tub? basin?) and hold it in place with a few magnets. From what I can tell the results are the same for the steaks and meat we cook and none of the sketchiness from eating slow heated plastic.

Great stuff right there! Anybody else struggle with the cap on these? On mine the little cap is so hard to pull off and then if I'm not really careful I pull too hard and the whole red part pops off.

Emotion is the best pop album in the last 10 years and it's not even close.
