Far cry 5 gives the opposite experience. You get railroaded into missions, but can do whatever you want to during them.

While getting pushed into missions is a bit irritating, the open gameplay and drop in co op made it one of the most fun games out there. Finding ways to break missions with my friends turned into the real objective of the game.

One portion, you have to scale a mountain while dodging sniper fire to kill a cult leader at the top, and I spent 15 minutes slowly making my way up to him. As I finally get to the top, before I could make the kill, a friend dropped in and crashed a fighter jet into him, completing the mission.

I’ve been building a house myself for four years. I move in in 3 weeks.

Not the original commenter, but what theirs saying stands true. The issue of “sounds legit” is the main driving force in misinformation right now.

The only way to combat it is to truly gain the knowledge yourself. Accepting things at face value has lead to massive disagreements on objective information, and allowed anti science mindsets to flourish.

Podcasts are the medium that I give the most blame to. Just because someone has a camera and a microphone, viewers believe them to be an authority on a subject, and pairing this with the “sounds Legit” mindset has set back critical thinking skills for an entire population.

More people need to read Jurassic park.

Foss everything. I’ve spent years making sure I stay private and never see ads, and never pay for convenience. There is a free version of literally everything that people use, it just takes a little bit of effort.

Fediverse for social media, Foss alternatives for professional use, and I hack every device I own.

I see this opinion fairly often, and it honestly confused me. My rig is not a showcase by any means, and I had no issues with sh2 or dead space.

I’m thinking more people need to optimize their OS.

A USB cable?

I find the opposite is true gender swapped. Nothing makes a girl more attractive to me than playing bass.

Giant isopods have been filmed swarming sharks to impede their movement and gill function when the local detritus is lacking nutrients.

Did you just assume my phyla?

Depends on the definition of bug. Entemological true bugs are a very specific class of insects, but the term bug was used to describe any arthropod for significantly longer than proper taxonomy has been around.

So if you’re a biologist, no, if you’re an anthropologist, yes.

Someone covered in brine shrimp would be more likely to feel covered in bugs than covered in marine crustaceans though.

The taxonomy puts us right about the same, splitting after phylum. That being said, a shrimp looks a hell of a lot more like a silverfish than I do like a carp.

Well, depending on my general state of health.

I was a medaled fencer years ago. I’m currently.picking it up again, and there is nothing quite like it. If there’s a local class near you, pick it up. It’s arguably the most fun combat sport there is.

A second hand drum kit will be more reliable than a second hand power washer, so you could get a washer with gift cards and then look for a good deal on a drum kit.

That being said, playing drums makes you more fun and interesting. Having a power washer makes you more likely to be asked to clean things.

I have no experience with it and can’t claim to know, but the privacy advocate in me tells me it can use everything because it wants access to everything so it can datamine from every app at once.

Again, I don’t know this specific app, but literally every other non Foss app is just a front for granted permissions.

Language is always evolving, and for a term as long standing as pet, with such wide use, it’s no longer an incorrect use of the word. Pet as a past participle aligns with the use of similar words like bet and set, and on a cultural basis petted sounds like the way a little kid speaks.

If I recall correctly, only one of the heads likes to be pet. Don’t lose a hand.

It’s the main reason I don’t care for 80s-00s east coast comics. It’s too hard to tell if they’re going for shock comedy or are actually as dumb as they’re telling us.

Sepparate utensils into three groups. Prep and baking tools should be near the largest counter space. Cooking tools should be near the stove. Single use tools should be near the curb.
