Mint on my desktop and Pop on my laptop...so that part seems accurate for me.

That looks like a super car with a healthy 6-figure price tag to me.

You can pressure cook frozen chicken in an instant pot.

Oh, that makes sense!

The tall one in the back looks a little inconvenient. Are you growing native prairie grass in there?

Not even a little bit true for me. I listened to pretty much only country at 14 and I don't listen to any country now, not even the stuff I liked then. By 16 I had switched to mostly rock & alternative. I will still listen to that occasionally, mostly for nostalgia, but it isn't on any of my playlists. I suspect most everything on my regular playlists came out after I was 30, but it continues to shift forward over time. I suspect eventually most of my current playlist will age out too.

I love this cover!

I bought the first one for $20. For the second I'll play on Game Pass, if it is available, or again wait for $20. Maybe even less if I forget about it, which I might.

Someday, that's what we'll be sold as "The Singularity". Some company like Apple or Google will offer us ascendance into the cloud, but we'll actually just become digital slave labor.

Yeah, my only major criticism of the game is the way they handled difficulty settings. "Story" mode still requires you to learn the mechanics and play the way they intended. It should have been called "easy" or "casual" or something and had a separate "story" mode that is really just about enjoying the story without any combat difficulty.

I don't really enjoy turn-based combat or quick time events, so this game would have been a complete pass for me, but I decided to check it out on Game Pass and I really liked the art, music, and story. I ended up modding out all the combat challenge so I could enjoy it anyway, but it would have been better if I could tweak it through the settings and maybe end up with something a little more balanced.

My favorite mod to the game is increasing the parry time.

I streamed it on Game Pass for about 30 min and was bored and quit after the first level. I'm not really the target audience, but I still expected more.
