Whoah, thanks for that. I rarely use fb and while I knew that they collected and connected information anywhere they could, but I had only ever seen the main fb settings and turned those off as much as possible.

This is wild.

Everyone left after EOC and now those that returned play OSRS.

When I started playing OSRS last June I checked the player count that evening, 10k players in RS3 and 90k in OSRS.

The game has turned into one giant "limited time" event mill, and many of the new places are missing things like cute examine texts that gave it soul.

Did you read the article?

"Russia launched 127 missiles and 109 attack drones"

and later it says:

"Previously, an attack last December when 158 missiles and drones were fired at Ukraine, had been considered the largest attack so far."

It's been a while since I was in school but I think 236 drones and missiles is more than 158?

Had an issue on my golf where I had the secondary radiator fan die, so it would de-rate the compressor and run the main fan full time. I put an after-market (cheap) fan in, but the system didnt think it was running and was causing similar issues where at speed it was fine but when stopped it wouldn't cool (compressor would run a few seconds then off for 30 seconds). It was not until I replaced it with a OEM 2nd hand that the system was able to see the fan running as normal, so the compressor was allowed to run as normal."

Clove oil. You can get it in a tiny vial at the chemist. You pick off small bits of cotton, roll them into little balls, and dip into the clove oil. Wring out most of it against the side of the bottle, then place directly on the site of pain and bite.

In your case you might want to make strips of cotton or something.

It tastes absolutely horrible and will make your whole mouth numb, but it is antiseptic and will give you enough relief to sleep.

It definitely is, but these recent years have seen more and more unfinished games pushed to the finish line with game breaking bugs and missing content, all while charging AAA prices.

Capitalism is what it is, a metric for "success" cannot just mean you are profitable, you must be more profitable each year. Thus the enshitification of everything continues.

It is becoming difficult to "pay more for quality" as the quality of every publicly traded brand is the first thing that suffers when they are pushed to make more profits each year.

A lot of countries outside the States have cafes and restaurants, even pubs with play areas for children specifically designed so parents can go out with their children and enjoy a meal and get together while their children play.

I moved to Australia from the States and remember the first time I saw an indoor play space with sound proof glass walls larger than any McDonalds in a nice pub with sit down dining. Such a neat idea.

Good! Delay it til 2030! I am tired of unfinished games being released leaving angry gamers to abuse the devs who put their heart and soul into it. The only ones who win are the studios.

They have not left, and are indeed building a house there and posting endless pro Russia videos.

Nevermind the initial articles and the poor wife's tearful video that was deleted after they were "requested" to do so. Which of course they then denied and said of course they edited it themselves.

I missed the discussion on voting the other day it seems, but for what it's worth, I like the voting system. In real life discussions happen in open air, and don't hang there in posterity for people to stumble upon after. When we come to a consensus in conversation it is then left at that and we move on.

When online, these discussions stay as they are, and I think voting gives a way of people to come to a consensus, to leave a mark upon the conversation such that the people who come behind understand how everyone felt about it.

This is helpful I think, because it does not hide the down votes on nasty comments or ideas that hurt others.

One of the most interesting and horrible things about the internet is that every village has a "crazy Bob" but because they were the minority the good of the people outnumbered their outlandish or hateful ideas.

Now they can and do find each other online, forming a vocal and damaging minority. Without the majority able to show their dislike, human nature means more will fall in line with them and their ideals.

What ever happened to Helldivers2 and the whole Sony making it (and was it Ghost of Tushima?) unavailable in certain countries thing?

We were excited to try Helldivers as we are between games, but after Sony pulled that stuff we didn't give it a second look.

Did they reverse the decision?
