You mean RTS games? Warcraft is from ‘94, two years after Dune 2 was released.

Battlefield 2142 had that, don’t know it that was the first one to do that though. Might’ve been BF2.

Metalheads are generally just nice people cosplaying as mean people. No nice person dislikes a kitty.

I hope so.

Make Shit Good

I’d say Cartman represents our basest and darkest thoughts, fantasies and desires.

The thoughts we have but most of us do not act upon. They’re harmless as long as we don’t act upon them. Except Cartman does.

It’s obvious Jack Black has maxed out his Charisma stat.

Similar story with Yesterday by the Beatles. Paul McCartney was convinced he had unconsciously plagiarized the song after he’d supposedly heard it in a dream.

We gave our elderly cat ‘cat milk’ from the pet food isle as a treat and she loved it. I suppose it’s lactose free or something and it was a great way to get her to take her meds.

I was waiting for the release date to be April 1st. Guess the jokes on me, it’s February 27th.

Not a teacher (but I work with people that sometimes want to give me gifts when we say goodbye) and I agree, card or a letter is great!

Either that or something I can share with my colleagues (chocolate, assorted sweets).

I can’t imagine seeing any noticeable changes in graphics in the ps6.

I’ve been thinking that since the original Quake came out… there’s always room for improvement!

I know what you mean and I think it’s because it had a rocky start. This generation of consoles was plagued by availability issues due to the chip shortage which made the transition period from the ps4 to ps5 a drawn out affair.

I tried to get into it after completing the OG trilogy again but I just couldn’t. It looked a little familiar but just felt too different.

I might give it another go, see if it’ll work better standing on its own.

The Fender Tune app is pretty useful. It has a tuner, metronome and you can look up scales and chords. It’s also free.

This is a great move generally. I’ve never bought a new car in my life and I generally buy other expensive stuff used as well. I’ve only ever bought a couple of new guitars for example and I’ve found it’s not worth the upcharge over used.

Boardgames and video games are nice to have new but most of the time the people I buy them from have been super careful with their stuff so you hardly notice it’s been used.

Same thing with clothes. People buy so much shit that they hardly (if ever) wear it before selling it on. I’ve bought Chucks with the tags still on for half of what they’re sold for in retail. Same thing with jeans.

Also it’s generally better for the environment to buy used.

I’m thinking yes. Assuming their dietary needs are roughly similar. However, every cat I’ve ever know has been notoriously picky about what food they like and dislike so I’m assuming big cats are the same.

Ik praat die wappies niet goed he? Er wordt geloof ik wel onderscheid gemaakt tussen ‘autonomen’ en ‘soevereinen’ begreep ik. De ene wil groep wil wel alle lusten (uitkeringen, wegen, staatsbosbeheer etc) maar niet de lasten en de andere willen ook nergens meer gebruik van maken.

Waar ik enigszins begrip (of is het meer mededogen?) voor op kan brengen zijn de mensen die het al niet getroffen hebben (qua IQ, sociaal-economische status etc) en die al dan niet terecht het gevoel hebben overal buiten te vallen. Als er dan een slimme oplichter langskomt die ‘De Oplossing’ heeft zijn de makkelijke prooi.

Dit soort mensen snappen geen zak van waar belastingen voor zijn en van ‘collectiviteit’ hebben ze ook geen kaas gegeten.

Hoe dan ook is het natuurlijk wel asociaal maar ik ga er voor mij eigen levensgeluk van uit dat het eerder het gevolg is van domheid dan van kwaadwilligheid.

Op zich, de logica dat je allerlei (betaal)verplichtingen hebt zonder dat je daar ooit een overeenkomst over afgesloten hebt kan ik ergens nog wel volgen. Het is een beetje alsof bol.com ineens van alles aflevert en vervolgens verwacht dat ik dat ook ga betalen.

Het gevoel dat ‘het niet klopt’ kan ik ergens wel inkomen. Zeker als je al een beetje op je randje van de maatschappij balanceert en kwetsbaar bent.

Dit soort oplichters speelt daar handig op in.
