Now what IS "Attempted Murder", anyway? Do they give out Nobel Prizes for "attempted chemistry"?

We used to rent these games from Blockbuster Video! On DVD when we had DVD burners and little to no drm! How did it suddenly not become acceptable?

Oh no, they're putting denuvo on it? Man I loved the first game. I don't think they even had anything close to a problem with piracy because it was a huge hit. Like, it not only did amazing for Warhorse Studios, but it made a huge tourism jump for the region.

That's a bummer, and as much as I want to support KC:D II, I can't support denuvo.

Mixing water and sand? Is he referring to the Falling Sand game? Just missing wax and fire. What a throwback.

I love shakshuka, but only had it as a dinner. I'll have to try it as a brunch. My understanding is it's kind of made with whatever's on hand, but mine looks like yours. It's delicious! We try to make naan or some other kind of bread to go with it, as well.

Immortan Joe had less swag on his armor than these guys! Do they worry that they'll get too many and not be able to wear them all, and disrespect Dear Leader?

Companies didn't vet them, and outside to other as companies. Turns out they didn't do any due diligence, and let viruses leak through. That's when people really started blocking them.

If it happens past your lifetime, it doesn't matter. So for sure it'll pass. These sayings are meant to apply to you, not history.

I look back to the serenity prayer, which is really just a bit of Buddhism: "Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

The Buddhist path is "why is there suffering in the world?" Because of attachment. You want things to stay the same. Things change. You want your parents to live forever. You don't want to be sick. You wish your job didn't suck. Why can't I just win the lottery and have my problems go away? You want to cling to the good times and not have the bad. You can let go of the bad, and the resultant suffering because of it will fade. Letting go is incredibly hard, because our biological bodies are hard wired on routines. But if you can overcome that, and accept that whatever happened, happened, you can move forward. You can't change the past. And whether you like it or not, time and the world moves forward. You can move forward with it, or let something hold you back.

And just to clarify, I'm an atheist, so my understanding of both the Serenity Prayer and Buddhism are seen through the lense of someone that doesn't believe in an afterlife or religion in general (strict Buddhism is not a religion). I encourage you to find your own conclusions.

It didn't even occur to me that people were firing rockets, etc, from Lebanon into Israel. Duh. That makes a lot of sense, and I just assumed they fired from Gaza and so forth. Well today I learned.

Hopefully your actually pertinent information will continue to be upvoted. Thank you!

Those old tv shows where they casually eat breakfast before work make more sense. They weren't up at 6, rushing to get to work by 8. They had a whole hour more.

So I don't know if I missed it, but what's Israel's justification for attacking another sovereign country? And I saw they were talking about putting settlers there? Aren't they essentially doing what Russia is doing to Ukraine? Why isn't the UN coming down on them?

I bought a cheap Vizio, and never connected it or let it connect to anything. All it does is power on, and go to HDMI-1. My pc it connects to does everything else.

If you're concerned about privacy on your tv, I would recommend migrating away from Roku as well.
