That’s very interesting if true! I didn’t realize it could be that advanced.

If it used face unlock, just have the dead body and prop the eyes open and you’re in?

I want to see a gritty special forces show of an Imperial squad performing missions for the Empire. All from their side with the rebels seen as complete barbaric enemies. Hell, throw in Saw Gerrara and his forces and how he will do ANYTHING to win, even kill innocent civilians who don’t want to help him in his endeavors.

No, the campaign for Inferno Squad in BF2 wasn’t good enough.

In addition to this, I also added into my post that there is no guarantee they will even look at your car today or tomorrow. Other customers and problem difficulty can delay their timeframe to even start diagnosing.

You CAN leave. If you have one car and that’s your mode of transportation then you realistically have only a few options to supplement your handicap of being car less:

  • ride share
  • gig economy (doordash/grubhub/etc and Instacart/gopuff, etc)
  • work from home
  • public transportation
  • rental car
  • loaner car if at a dealer and they have any available
  • take sick days until your vehicle is repaired

What would you do? The repairs depend on what is wrong and sometimes those symptoms can be a menagerie of things that require troubleshooting what the actual root cause is. That takes time. Not to mention they may not even be able to check your car today at all. They have other customers with similar or worse issues all wanting their vehicle fixed ASAP as well and might also be a one car household.

Do you have insurance? See if they will cover a rental for you while your car is in the shop. Otherwise, find one of those other options above and figure things out.

Yes, a car is expensive and when it goes down then you are forced to find other ways to ensure you can make it.

Virtual meetings, stands, and even just check ins or “coffee talk” sessions happen all the time and we’re 100% remote. Not to mention general chats via Slack or Teams with people posting memes or talking about different subjects (movies, games, etc).

Counter point - you get them installed so they can make meaningful decisions that help the people and then constantly remind the public:

We did that! We did that! We did that! Vote for us and there will be more of that.

Fingerprinting.

Bingo! Google wants to go cookieless and fingerprinting has been ~~one of~~ the solve~~s~~ I’ve always read about in the SEO world.

Reading some of these responses, I swear these people are armchair parents. There’s an entire science of nature vs nurture. Nurture also includes peers and group acceptance and even the best of kids sometimes do horrible, shitty, stupid things for nurture of their peers.

It’s like they do not want to entertain that this happens. Head. In. The. Sand.

Big fan of Matt Colville. I own Flee, Mortals the book and the PDF. I use the pdf in my games, but having everything in dndbeyond is also amazing. I think I’ll purchase it again and get Where Evil Lives too.

I’m stoked about all of the 3rd party content getting added such as Kobold Press. It’s making this digital stuff very worth it!

What does everyone else use and/or recommend?
