This is the worst possible example dude. Music is literally vibes in the most fundamental sense.
‘Vibes’ is recycled hippie slang for vibrations, the idea that things have metaphysical or abstract good or bad vibrations that affect the things around them. An idea rooted in an appreciation of musical vibrations, and the way different frequencies and patterns of vibrations affect us emotionally.
Music has always been all about the vibes, words are secondary.
This isn’t even that though. This is just playing the game with a singular focus, they’re doing nothing to cut corners or speed up the loop, just not doing other activities in between.
It’s nuts to me that OP can even remotely consider this cheating.
Yeah, obviously. But that doesn’t do my child a damn bit of good now does it?
Is that what you think people are worried about? Planetary death has never really been on the table, that’s just the ignorant parroting things that were misunderstood.
Honestly, why isn’t this just standard procedure for dealing with the dead? Especially if they’re already being cremated. It’s very weird to me that people are so pearl-clutchy about what happens to a dead body. I would much prefer mine goes to something helpful to someone over sitting on a mantle or frozen in a sterile box.
Obviously the consent part is a valid issue, I (somewhat begrudgingly) wouldn’t want to force this on people with deep religious reasons to keep a body whole, but I’d have it be something you have to opt out of.
Honestly yeah that’s even better. How great would it be to watch Chrome slowly die out while funneling money to fight climate change?
Seems like it allows a non profit to assume control of a company without having to pay out funds to actually purchase it. They apparently have to reinvest all profits back into the company rather than directly benefiting from it. Though the article does mention under the proposal, some unspecified portion of Chrome profits would go toward ‘climate action’, so there’s some vague positive out of it.
Seems like it would be pretty great honestly, so I can’t imagine it’ll be accepted.
Didn’t they fix this like a year ago? Or maybe there’s an option to turn it off now. I just know I haven’t seen that in ages.
Wow, awesome to see they’re doing well!
Unfortunately I stuck to the city when I was there. We were just there for 2 days while we waited for our car to get shipped over from Panama, so no hiking unfortunately.
If you’re a spirits fan at all, take a look around for ‘Ron Medellin’ for me. I found some in a grocery store there in a little cardboard box about 12 years ago and I’m curious if they’re still around. It was one of the absolute best rums I’ve ever had, a really light coffee undertone that I’ve never found in any other rum.
I wish I spent more time there when I visited. Medellin in general was one of the most beautiful and friendly places I’ve been to in South America.
Sometimes much higher than that. Nature is really fucking weird.
What compelling evidence leads you to believe otherwise? Dairy industry propaganda based on a single study during the height of a massive drought in California that you half read 5 years ago?

Here’s a decent overview. If you haven’t found ‘compelling evidence’ it’s because you haven’t bothered to look.
Don’t buy into the anti-almond milk bullshit, it’s propaganda. It still takes about 3x less water to produce per gallon than dairy milk, and that’s not accounting for the numerous other ecological issues with cattle farming. It may have a higher environmental cost than other plant milks, but it’s still leagues better than going back to cow juice.
Didn’t play TLoU, but if you didn’t catch it from the start, the point of The Mandalorian was clearly always about Grogu becoming ‘the Mandalorian’. Just cause it didn’t go the way you expected doesn’t mean nothing happened.
Connecting to characters in media is a great way to connect to your own feelings. It sounds like you’re treating it like it takes away from reality somehow, but all media is a reflection of reality. People have a reaction to it because it connects to something in their life. If you haven’t found things that resonate with you that’s cool, but looking down on others for being emotionally open is unnecessary.
Making Elizabeth invincible is the only way that game is playable for me. There’s no chance in hell I’d play an entire game that’s one long escort quest where I’m constantly worried about the useless sidekick that I’d rather be without. She may not have added much, but a superficial narrative device is a thousand times better than a crippling gameplay decision.
Probably more fun than playing a multiplayer game with you. Do you have trouble finding friends that don’t like being shit on for making conversation?
It’s not even a good analogy, the basic idea of a ‘silent dark forest’ is pretty nonsense. Forests aren’t quiet at night. Animals aren’t hiding out to avoid predators. Most aren’t active cause it’s dark and it’s hard to see, so they sleep instead. Most predators are in the same boat, they typically hunt in late evening/early morning, when their prey is also active. That’s ignoring the plethora of nocturnal species of course.
There’s literally no part of the theory I find compelling, it seems like a poor conclusion based on a foolish assumption.
Out of curiosity, have you read Stranger in a Strange Land? I won’t say the character work is amazing, and it does feel a bit dated, but I find it to stand out in the genre.
And nobody is going to get in trouble for scrolling past a woman with a bikini on at work. If your workplace is that strict, you’re going to be in more trouble for scrolling social media on the clock.
More graphic content is visible in ads on any major website. The idea that a clothed woman should be censored as if it’s vulgar is excessive in my opinion. Where do we draw the line? Shoulders? Knees? Ankles? I had assumed as a society we had decided it was the actual genitals, but apparently not.
Jail is often used as a scheduled punishment for lesser crimes. Severe traffic violations, minor possession charges, that kind of thing. You might get sentenced to a week of jail time, but you can have it scheduled around work/custody visitation/school. So you might serve a day or two at a time over the course of a couple weeks.
These kinds of punishments can easily be postponed in unusual circumstances.
