I have a rule of thumb: no tattoos above the base of the neck. Although how I'd execute my portal love might be weirder... maybe a relevant portal safety sign tramp stamp.

Weirdly, nothing so far with my latest swap has needed extra attention, but having to manually mount drives every boot (or adjust the config) might confound a former Windowsian. At least with my distro, anyway.

Time to learn DIY book binding...

I suppose that's true. They didn't used to have their butcher shop brand until a few years ago, and there's no doubt they're watering it down. You 100% can taste the difference with the higher end, at least. Same kinda for eggs, although I'm getting eggs at Sprouts.

Hell, tier pricing is even in the milk lately. I wish we had better standards, lol.

Yup! Though if you shop around you can avoid it and some chains, like Trader Joe's, tend to include less as far as I can tell (except recently with those big breasts of theirs?). Not even that much more expensive but definitely a jump in quality. A Sprouts nearby also has fantastic chicken.

I've been meaning to visit the carnecerias near me, though. Getting meat at any specialized store tends to cook better, anyway, but I'm a little shy since my Spanish is terrible and last time I tried they didn't speak English. Lots of pointing and gestures, lol.

Huh, always weird when I see local news on my Lemmy feed.

FYI, South Bay is especially car brained, even my LA. We have a major refinery, some car manufacturer HQs, and I'm pretty sure more mechanics per capita than most of Cali. Long history with the automotive industry going back to the founding of a lot of these little cities.

It's a shame, too. The beach cities are lovely places to walk and somehow have terrible biking and public transportation infrastructure. The people there can be a bit entitled, though (and it's it just me or did this guy do it right outside his fucking home? Lol). But I don't know a solution, it's practically every other day someone is mowed down 'round here by a muscle car, and the areas East of El Segundo have a lot more waking families since we can't afford cars.

A little hope, though. I saw they mentioned the Sawtelle area too. I used to live there, and not only did they 180 on that case, Stoner Park is now surrounded by mini roundabouts. So change does happen after this type of thing, and their jurisdiction is LA itself, not a smaller city in a city.

Ey, I'm pretty sure you're doing something cooler than me; I'm playing Wii this weekend.

"Yeah, but the Epstein fiiiiiiiles" followed by death.

Kidding. I'm with you, but more "ah, fuck."

There's something rich about this coming from Nippon Ichi's former head, the company that brought us the artistic masterpieces known as the Disgaea series. Truly visionaries, lol.

(PS I like the games and tbf, they're... unique).

Lol, I can't believe you'd say Love Hina since that was the first anime I pirated for a friend on his request and it ended up being the first one I saw that wasn't like, Dragon Ball or Sailor Moon. It wasn't great, but the second one I pirated and therefore saw was Chobits, which was.

I guess my childhood isn't too different from others, although we've never had the money to actually buy anime until streaming was a thing. Back then, it was like 30 dollars for a few episodes on dvd l...

I'm not even sure Valve has 1000 employees. They're notoriously small with a weird structure, iirc something like 300ish people who are free to just take on projects and are well paid.

That just sounds like a Waffle House in Florida or something, except instead of $500, it's drugs.
