Nothing, and I don’t plan to buy anything except normal stuff through January, either. I’m not doing Xmas this year, so very easy to avoid the spend.

I don’t recall saying all attackers were necessarily from different countries, because that’s not true at all. I said it’s unlikely they are from the same one, because statistically that is true.


Even if they did track them down, then what?
The world is huge, it’s unlikely that a particular attacker is going to be from the same country, so how are they going to do anything about it, really?
The victim can report to the government local to the hackers, but that local government is under no real obligation to do anything about it.


If it makes you feel better, the people who stick their arms in aren’t allergic to mosquito bites. Doesn’t bother them to get bit beyond the feeling of being bit.
I mean I guess it could happen that they are just masochistic, but typically not.


Similarly, granular audio options that separate dialogue from ambient from music from system sounds. Definitely don’t need my ears blown out just to hear dialogue.
I like having the background music very low, but not off, system sounds a bit above that, sound effects higher than system but lower than dialogue, which is maxed. And of course ambient sound levels really depend on the game and what kind of ambiance it has.
Same thing with granular contrast/gamma/etc. Don’t just provide a few preset options, especially if they can only be set before you start the game (also they should never only be set from the main menu, never). Let the player choose whatever they want on the fly. I love playing with everything bright so I can see wtf I’m doing, I don’t give half a shit if the devs think it should be so dark it’s not navigable. I disagree.


At least the 4 dinners aren’t empty calories, so there’s that. They actually contain stuff that’s good for you. So not really a wash. Plus excess eating doesn’t damage your body to nearly the same degree as a similar number of calories in alcohol form, you can just exercise it away, or shift eating habits to account for it.


Oh, here I thought they actually made it! That didn’t happen? :p


It’s kinda beautiful to watch.
I hope it matters. Probably won’t, but maybe. Stranger things have happened…


Honestly, about time.
The scaled-up child/scaled-down man dummy that’s been used for ages is not a good representation of female anatomy.
Hope it goes into use.
In my area, which is a fairly low cost of living area, I know exactly one couple who do that. They have their home and apartments where they work.
They are literally millionaires, and their primary home is literally a mansion. As in just sold a ski condo a couple years ago, one of several properties they own, for 10 million profit kind of millionaires. (And yes they do bitch about taxes and safety net programs for the poors. Frequently.)
A lot of people around me do have “winter homes” in the south or “lake houses” further north, but that’s seasonal/occasional rather than something they use every week, and it’s mostly retired people who got money and residences when that was an easy thing to do. And most of them rent out the space when not in use.
No avatar because I can’t be bothered. I don’t see them on my app anyway. As far as I can tell, nobody has them.
I was watching some movie, and I was like ooh, centipedes would make good farriers; they can use their body along the hoof to draw a stencil by just passing a pencil along all of its feet!
And that was silly so here we are.
