You are correct.

My in-laws are bitching about "how bad" the weather will be after it makes it's way to Ohio.

I understand losing power for a few hours is irritating, but have some fucking perspective. You can go see actual devastation with a single tank of gas.

"Mister Doctor"?

Strange...

Exterior: El Sleezo Cafe. Man in a coat is being tossed out onto the street.

A green frog sees this, and suggests the man complains to the owner of the establishment.

The man then says to the frog "I AM the owner."

Yeah it could definitely be a little clearer with it's phraseology.

I haven't played a live service game since Destiny 2 decided to completely remove all the shit I paid for, then lock everything new behind even more pay walls.

I've been playing dozens of games since then. It's not hard to find games that aren't live service and likely won't be touched outside of stability and a couple QoL things here and there.

I'm all for laws requiring all games to be playable offline, and without any sort of bullshit "online activation". I paid for a game, I want to play the game without having to download shit first. I want to play the game whether my hanky-ass internet connection is stable or even nonexistent today. I want to be able to use the thing I paid for without having to jump through extra hoops, no matter how large or "on the ground" the hoop is. It's still a hoop.

"COME OUT YEH BLACK AN' TAN"

Fixed headline: "Price Gougers in an industry famous for Price Gouging and collaborative price-fixing seizes opportunity to Price Gouge and blame someone else"

That's a little wordy though...

Use 150mb to put a low quality version of Firefly that I used to have on a Nokia phone around 2007/2008, and the rest will be my collection of ebooks.

I've got more than 1gb of books, but I can trim down the file size by stripping formatting and saving as plain text, and there's a few series I could go without reading for a long time.

"You can't hear text"

............

!

Gotta get those panic clicks.

Any and every headline that begins with "Jimmy Carter, former US President" makes my stomach drop a bit. For like a decade now.

A Long March 2D rocket...

Damn, they aren't even launching a 3-dimensional rocket? I mean, I'm familiar with decreasing thickness in kerbal space program, but this is just crazy talk!
