Dare I ask, why? I mean obviously meth addicts aren’t known for their shrewd decisions in general, but is there some sensory or cognitive change in particular that compels them to put foreign objects in their butts more than say, alcoholics would?

That’s a dove and olives representing peace, right? Pretty good.

Oh, I re-read your previous comment and understand better now. It’s been a long while since I learned this stuff.

Umm I thought Martin Luther was like, the original protestant.

Oh ok, thanks. Does it do homescreen icons and widgets? Last I tried it there was something I didn’t like but I can’t remember what.

I don’t understand why someone would want a “search-focused” launcher. You mean I have to bring up the on-screen keyboard and type out the name of an app instead of just scrolling & tapping an icon with 1-2 simple motions? Yuck. What am I missing?

There is at least one longtime Ohio business that’s very pro-cannabis. The CEO of Scott’s Miracle-Gro has been outspoken about it for years. Of course it’s profitable – they will gladly sell you fertilizer and accessories!

Omg I just got that 😂

That’s actually amazing that we have eclipse shots from Mars. Anyone know how it was taken? What instrument?

Hm, it still looks a bit annoying that you have to go to their website and get Motorola’s blessing via a special unlock key, rather than doing it 100% on your own. But that looks more automated than in the past so maybe that’s an improvement. Thanks.

Those are some positive changes.

Is the battery easily replaceable? Have they stopped making it a pain in the ass to unlock the bootloader? Those are the things that matter for longevity of a device.

Dict.cc translates der Schniedel as “doodle”, “tallywacker”, or “swizzle stick”. So that seems fitting.

If ammo got simplified then I’m sure weapon condition / repairs got the axe too. Wish is fine I suppose. But hopefully attachments like scopes and suppressors and grenade launchers are still included, those were great.

On ammo I’d be okay with simplifying NATO vs Warsaw Pact rounds because that’s a bit hard to track for anyone unfamiliar, but as you say I liked the overall immersion of matching bullets to the gun.

I’m hoping the PC modding scene takes off because that will let us customize all kinds of things.

That was my immediate thought too.

Exactly. But that doesn’t matter to fundamentalists. The show has “occult themes” which to them is enough to send an innocent child’s soul straight to Satan. Reason and comprehension obviously weren’t the driving forces in the household.

I mean I’m kind of afraid of the world. This planet has earthquakes and volcanoes and pandemics and tsunamis and prions and cancer and war and landmines and maybe a big asteroid every billion years.

No reason not to enjoy everything we’ve got, of course. It’s still the best home.

Yeah my partner grew up in that sort of household. Same for Scooby Doo. Kinda blew my mind.

I think my parents only made me go to church twice as a kid and I watched those cartoons all the time, understanding full well that they were just cartoons.

Windows 7 Ultimate for me. I still kept it as a boot option on my main PC until about a year ago because I thought I still needed it for a couple windows apps and games.

I tried Win8 at one point and hated the changes. I also tried Win10 and one of those “forced bloody updates” bricked my machine so I said ‘fuck that’ for good.

I’ve dabbled in Linux for 20 years, and run Ubuntu on my living room HTPC for at least a dozen. My main PC runs EndeavourOS now and even gaming has been pretty great.

I remember enjoying the elemental guns (Maliwan) a lot in both BL1 and BL2. It’s a shame it took till the Pre-Sequel to add ice!

I’d argue the throw-to-reload mechanic isn’t in other games because it’s a gimmick.

The other letdowns in BL2 were A) the Hyperion “reverse kick” guns that were only accurate after you emptied most of the magazine, and B) the 3-barrel Gattling guns with magazines that were way too small to be worth spinning up. I swear these together were 25% of my pickups and just a waste of time. It feels bad to die while you’re actively holding the trigger right in the baddie’s face.

Many of the legendary guns and unique grenade effects were pretty fun in BL2 though. Those were both solid improvements.

I thought the weapons were a big step down in BL2. I swear 50% of the guns I found were gimmicks (e.g. throw it as a grenade to reload) but not actually all that effective.

Torgue weapons were especially bad. Yeah I know everyone loves Mr. Torgue and explosions are fun, but those guns are so inaccurate they can’t hit anything >2 meters away. I’d take a weapon that can reliably hit a target any day.

The devs also got rid of the Atlas and S&S brands from BL1. Those were almost always my pick unless so it was a real letdown to see them missing in BL2.
