Meh. She’s still a “secret” party member that you’re very unlikely to accidentally unlock on a good run.

This is just letting experienced forum-rrading players recruit her a bit more easily.

It was probably closer to $30, but a squeezy poop claw to clean up after my dog. Works so much better than a shovel.

Picked this up last week for a grand… couldn’t pass it up. Holy crap it has a lot of tweakability. There’s a bit of a learning curve to getting good sounds out of it, but damn does it sound nice once it’s dialed in.

Ukraine is attacking military targets. That’s the big difference here.

used to alert the rider that the software has overridden user input

I think this is the whole point. Riders were asking more of the boards than the boards could do, and when the board was unable to comply the rider would lose their balance. Haptic feedback tells the rider “nah, not doing that” so they’re aware the board isn’t going to do the thing and can adjust their balance accordingly.

“Market prices for this new housing are likely to far exceed the already high prices that existed in Lahaina before the fire. For renters, the old housing stock that was destroyed provided opportunities for reasonable rents,”

I think this is the issue. Poor folks live in older buildings. Can’t rebuild new old, run-down cheap neighborhoods.

I had cats and a fish pond. Each cat tried catching the fish exactly once, ever.

Firefighters — who once backed the DeSantis takeover — are among those furious about the changes

“I didn’t think the leopards would eat my face.”

benefits like park passes are unethical.

Wtf. Perks are win-win. It’s a trivial expense to allow employees to use existing company assets, but it’s very valuable to the employees. Boss gets happy employees for less expense. Both sides are happy. No, that’s bad because:

“Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God,” the passage began. “And those which exist are established by God. Therefore, whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves.”

Ok, I didn’t see anything about perks there, but this logic supports gassing Jews (what the local authority wanted) and condemns smuggling them out of Germany (opposing God apparently).

These people are dangerously insane.

My dad (silent generation): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and be able to own a house and support a stay-at-home wife and kids. I dunno how you kids make it.

Me (gen X): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and afford rent and food. I dunno how you kids make it.

I’m not sure when the guy in the comic was born. Medieval times maybe? Because economic conditions for working class folks have been getting steadily worse for the entire lifespan of everyone alive today, at least in the US.
