My interpretation is that synthehol isn't supposed to be a copy of alcohol, it's designed to give the positive effects of alcohol without the downsides, so that taste is likely not the main consideration.

More like Sony doesn't want to cannibalize selling their own dedicated Blu-ray players for a much higher profit margin.

A $100 bluray drive, an Ugoos am6, and coreelec can get play everything for way less than a high end bluray player that can cost $1000.

Shame it doesn't support dolby vision though.

Transporting food halfway across the world ain't free either.

Not in one exposure. Human eyes are much better with dealing with extremely high contrasts.

Cameras can be much more sensitive, but at the cost of overexposing brighter regions in an image.

While pork and poultry are not great for the environment either, they have nothing on the methane emissions of ruminating animals like cows.

I can't control the infrastructure that requires me to drive a car.

The original question was why solar systems and galaxies are in planes, and your explanation is wrong.

What do you even mean by similar orbits? Most orbits are circular for a totally different reason, and that is tidal interactions.

I hate to be that guy, but this is wrong.

The solar system is mostly in one plane because it formed from a cloud of gas. The cloud of a gas has some total non zero rotation and as the cloud collapses interactions flatten the cloud into a disk, where all of the planets formed.

This same principle applies to galaxies.

Except that cars are heavy, so multi-level parking is prohibitively expensive.

I honestly though I would get used to it, like the forced 2-2-2 comps which I initially disliked, but I never did. It just made the game feel like too much more like a pure fps. And it not feeling like that was what made it unique.

In my experience all the que times were fine as 2-2-2 even when queued as duo dps

Ehh I disagree, I played consistently ow1 for years and ow2 just wasn't as good.

I mainly missed tank synergies. Without it the game just wasn't the same. The other tank changes were just insane too. And I preferred the full 6v6 experience.

Then they had to go an monetize the shit out of it, when I already paid for the game! The last straw was either paying for new characters or grinding like hell.

 

I have noticed that its much more difficult when you get a lot of the new mobs.

The corrupter is a pain to fight on uneven terrain, which is most caves.

The septic spitter creates painful hazards, but is at least easy to identify and kill.

I've seen the stingtail down so many people by moving them out of position repeatedly, so I've found i need to protect teamates it's targeting.

I love the jet boots, especially as gunner, but even as scout its useful. I just wish I'd see them more.
