Need more than that, and everywhere. There was a death literally outside my building just a couple months ago from a hit and run. 13 year old boy on an e-scooter obeying the law saying you can't be on the side wall with it. We even heard the whole thing, including the mother's cry seeing the body.

All up and down this Blvd, there are memorials to victims of hit and runs. It's disgusting the best LA is willing to do is amp up police presence, especially since this is a low income neighborhood.

    Or, it's faster but you need to zigzag through residential streets and eventually make dangerous left turns into traffic without a light or stop sign to stop the heavy traffic in both directions.

    Oops, it took too long to turn so it's no longer faster-- why didn't you just stay in the main boulevard? Silly human.

    Good point. Iirc, it's about 10% after a good reduction. My cooking mirin is 8% by volume, and you wouldn't want to use much or risk overpowering the sauce, so it's a pretty miniscule amount.

    None the less, people who avoid it for religious reasons or medical reasons should keep it in mind.

    Oh, I did play the first HD one and I agree that it works well enough. And the games are good in general, too. Sales are the only way to go though, I do recall they also get included with Humble Bundles and stuff, too.

    That's pretty cool!

    Reminds me of when the Windows podium computer decided to randomly update during a student presentation in my college class, no word of warning or anything. A crash would have been preferable! At least in both cases, we get to preach the gospel of FOSS, lol.

    Appreciate the summary, although I don't even like holding office hours so I don't mind that. The rest are depressing, though.

    That said... my own experience doesn't match up on the take-homes being useless. My God the way answers math problems are so bizarrely incorrect that I've given more 0s than I have in my entire fucking life.

    At least, upside, my holistic approach with a lot of discussion, projects and oral components to assignments are really shining. Helps that my classes are only 25 max though- I can't imagine how bad 80-300 classes are.

    Welcome, as others said you can't get universally banned here even if you can still get banned here or there. Also don't mind the voting around here too much, there's no persistent karma to worry about (even though one could theoretically calculate it up, you can track history).

    Speaking of which, you can also see how others voted and a few other things. It's an open system full of weird nerds so tools exist for all sorts of things.

    Lastly, you will see a culture shift, the most unique of which is a strong tankie presence (2/3 of which is censored on World) but also other things. AI, as noted, is fairly negative (there are spaces for it, but be mindful of instance cultures). Honestly I think deepL and stuff is generally accepted, though? As are other more regular translation tools. I like your English though, honestly.

    I don't understand the desire to not use a desktop PC for all the power it provides, but I'm not an everyday normal consumer. For a wireless VR set attached to a computer, it sounds lovely-- I'd like a cheaper, gutted version that's strictly for streaming.

    But I suppose for now, I can stick to my Index, especially with prices for parts the way they are. I still much prefer it over Quest 3, tether and all.

    Laws vary by state but iirc, California banned caging entirely, including imports. That said, cage free doesn't mean quality of life.

    I notice a huge difference with the more expensive eggs cause real free roaming hens eat lots of bugs and produce better eggs with deep orange yolks. Though, naturally scammers ruin that cause some orange hued eggs are dyed so buyer beware.

    Yes, it's the best way to play that and a few of those other 3D exploration games like Shining in the Darkness.

    I like the DS games Etrian Odyssey, they use the touch screen and force you to draw your own maps. The HD remakes are ok but that's by mouse and don't feel the same, lol.

    Edit- funny I didn't see the other comment mentioning it too, haha. Funny they're all SEGA now (even if EO is Atlus, lol).
