Are the first and third pics supposed to be desirable? They look like extras on the 2015 set of Back to the Future Part II

I've long said that if a doctor told me my next bite of meat would kill me, Indian and Thai food would be the only things keeping me alive

Have you and your girlfriend figured out how in the loop you each want to be in each other's meta relationships? You should feel comfortable coming to your girlfriend and admitting you have feelings for someone you're hanging out with regularly. For your girlfriend's part, it's okay for them if they lean into the compersion of it and want to hear everything about you and Emma, or (if they maybe have some jealousy they might need to work through) ask you to just keep details to yourself.

As far as Emma goes, I don't think there's anything wrong with saying to someone that you're happy with your current relationship style, but also open to being more intimate if they are. Leave it at that and assume you're still just friends until Emma suggests otherwise.

And that $30-100 steak is going to underperform against a mediocre home cook as long as the latter can take their time and prep the meat properly.

Unless someone I don't like is buying me dinner, I'm skipping the steak every time. I do it better at home.

It's crazy how little effort it takes to draw parallels between this administration and the current run of the Daredevil show.

Trump is a fucking comic book villain

It's derived from tl;dr, which is Too Long; Didn't Read. It's not instruction telling you to ignore it, it's an abbreviated way of saying, "I recognize this as AI slop that I'm not going to waste my time reading."

Those devs need to go straight to jail. Do not pass Go.

Reminds of asking for Final Fantasy Tactics for Christmas. I didn't realize the game was almost impossible to find until the Greatest Hits reprint.

My parents misunderstood and got me the strategy guide for Final Fantasy VIII. I think I was disappointed at the time, but I still got their money's worth out of that book.

I did not see the community name before clicking. I thought maybe it was like a potato wedge egg casserole or something. Had potential just from the name.

...I really should have looked at the community name first

All I know is the Phantasmal Gardener (four worms fight) is my new Gremlin Nob. I'm desperate to find an AOE or big burst card before I start hitting Act 1 elites because that asshole has tanked my run more than once now

I doubt you lose the GPS connection, but you lose the network connection to make the mapping and navigation work. About like navigating with your phone without cell service

They charge for premium network connectivity. It's $10/month to make use of if the LTE radio in the car for connecting directly to streaming services without your phone, live camera feeds in your cell phone app, and some extra map stuff. You still get eight years of basic navigation and updates if you don't pay for it.

The heated seats thing was BMW, which they back tracked on

 

From Steam's self-published stats.

Baldur's Gate 3 could not be preloaded and weighed in at 125 gigabytes on disk, so when the game left Early Access at 11am US Eastern yesterday, Steam's bandwidth utilization shot up 8x over a span of 30 minutes. I know personally, I saw my download hit over 600 Mbps across a 1 Gbps fiber connection.

Kudos to the system engineers at Valve. It is mind-boggling that they have built infrastructure that robust.
