The Old Adventures of the New Horizons

So I always imagine it a bit like this.

Imagine you are playing the SIMS, lo and behold you are your own SIM. But the objective in the corner doesn't specify money, it specifies well-being and happiness.

Your SIM is only programmed to take care of their base necessities, but those will only get your well-being and happiness bars up about 20%.

What do you do to fill them up the rest of the way? Mind you, some ways to fill the bars will be counterintuitive, like exercise, or learning a new skill. Though it needn't be those specifically.

And to make it harder, there is a diminishing return even on things that work, so you have to be sure to add variety, just a little, to keep the bars going up.

The most important thing, is you need to genuinely want what's best for yourself. Not what's most comfortable, but what's best. There is no answer anyone can give you to what that best something is, you have to answer that for yourself.

And if all of this seems like stupid bullshit to you, well this is just my own opinion, to which I make no claim has it's origin in the mind of greatness.

What did Colorado ever do to deserve this?

1, Revision OS is awesome, and good on you for sharing it!
2, I don't think that's you disagreeing really, just offering a "third path".

Not that I specifically disagree with anything you said. But reviewers loved to call Skyrim "as wide as an ocean, but as deep as a puddle" as well. And while Starfield suffers from a worse case of this, it's hard to argue this hasn't been Bethesda's main problem for a long while now.

Maybe this flaw finally caught up to Bethesda thanks to the march of time. But gotta hand it to em, they had a great run for a team the refuses to change with the times.

Should have introduced himself as .JSON, then the brain could have just made a symbolic link.

Idk man, the people with no friends and the people with a lot of friends and even the people with a middle amount of friends seem to follow a standard distribution of personalities.

Some awkward people and some charismatic people just suck. Some awkward people and some charismatic people are awesome. But most of all, people are just kinda shades of in-between.

Its alright. Has a lot of fun moments, sometimes tries to hard and falls on its face. 6 or 7 outta 10.

It has a lot of fun with its roots as part of the Bethesda games, so if that is what you think of as Fallout, it gets bonus point. It takes a bit of a steaming dump on its roots as part of Interplay Fallout, so if that's your frame of reference, loses some points.

All in all, worth watching, but only good in the context of "for a show about a video game".

Still, because of the very opinionated fanbase, it's either the best or worst thing ever depending on who you ask.

It was crazy that they got that to run on a SNES.

~~I don't get it at all... My best guess is that because OP once heard Darwin say "people tend to cue fights they anticipate in hopes it will deter the fight", that OP somehow hoped by saying "a minor is not a child", no one would have a fight regarding if a minor is a child?~~

~~But like, obviously it would cause the fight, so that can't be it. And it leaves me with so many questions...~~

~~A minor is of an age that they are incapable of giving consent, so everything after is just linguistic debates pushed by pedos right?~~

~~What does Charles Darwin have to do with this at all?~~

~~How, in this case, are evolution and fight prevention related?~~

~~How is evolutionary based fight prevention and the definition of "a minor" related?~~

~~Can a joke be funny, even if no one gets it?~~

Edit: Shit, just got it.

As some point Trump is going to have to pick someone who hasn't committed sexual assault right? Like, just statistically speaking...
