Gus is a handsome lad, normally, but this is like when Saitama decides to put some effort in!

I like to add a tablespoon of oyster sauce, and then some Worcestershire sauce to taste.

Woah! This is the second best tech support I’ve had this year. Thank you for 1. Identifying a bug, and 2. Offering a workaround same day!

You have my gratitude.

Hey! Thanks for stepping in. This is what Uname -A gets me:

And my Info Center says this:

And this is my configuration page for the night light setting, which appears to be set for specific times:

In car nav systems are nowhere near as up to date and useful as maps or Waze. And updating them is often as clunky as a new windows install. Some can only be updated by the dealer. It feels 20 years behind to use the systems offered by a lot of car companies.

Gotta get him one of these:

But zero was Majima at his least wacky. He spends most of it just being a regular Yakuza.

Maybe it’s even more important to him to be close to you or your folks than it is to be warm? ☺️

When we switch to DST, we "Fall Back. ". We set the clocks one hour back, at 2:00am Sunday, so basically we get an extra hour of sleep just on that night. Then we lose one when we set the clocks forward in the spring.

To be fair, I don’t think that extra hour, once in the Fall, is used as a reason for Daylight Savings in any debates.

I’m not sure if you’re arguing that it being fictional is an interpretation or that its demise from the ire of the Gods is an interpretation.

If it’s the former, you are incorrect. The single best primary source being his own protege and student Aristotle who also makes it clear the whole thing is didactic invention. (There are debates that some individual events within the story are inspired by actual events in Egypt and Athens, but its existence is never presented as fact. The entire idea that this was some historical account came mostly from a judge writing his own history books in the 19th century.)

This is also not debatable due to translation. It’s Plato. The best scholars of all time in both language and history have studied this, literally for centuries. There is not any serious or scholarly debate about his intentions with this story. And multiple, equally capable translations of Aristotle corroborate that.

If you’re talking about the destruction of Atlantis, it’s been too long for me to argue that specifically, but the idea that it was divine punishment is the prevailing view of that story.

Plato did not suggest ancient Atlantis existed. He was very clear that he was illustrating a hypothetical “great society” to discuss his views on effective and beneficent government.

When he discussed it sinking it was a divine punishment from the gods of Olympus because they had strayed from a righteous path. All of it is meant to be a parable.

After what you told me, I’ll see that face every time I close my eyes.

“Being a failed clone that was rejected from a science lab does explain why he is extremely stupid the greatest warrior of the modern age.”

Anachronox. Ion Storm at it’s best. Engaging plot and characters, humor well ahead of its time for a game script, and party members and environments that I’ve still never seen many games match to this day. I don’t know why it didn’t become huge, I think the rpg crowd back then was still pretty married to sword and sandal conventions. If you like old games, I can’t recommend it enough.

Ga-lactic is where we get lactic!

Yeah honestly. I know we (USA), do any number of things In a screwed up way, but it’s also what I’m used to. There’s NO border control anywhere around there? Seems weird to me.

Apparently they still exist. I just haven’t seen one in my city in almost 20 years. A quick search shows they’re now owned by the same parent company as Einstein. Einstein is fine but I liked Breugger’s better.

I like cinnamon raisin bagels…with scallion and herb cream cheese. It’s sweet and savory and the contrast is as good as a super hot shower with an ice cold drink.

Breugger’s bagels, may they rest in peace, used to have a bacon/scallion cream cheese. That was divine on cinnamon raisin bagels. I don’t know what upset people more, the scallion on a sweet substrate, or the bacon on a bagel. It doesn’t matter, if this is goy, I don’t want to be kosher.

Thank you for correcting my misinformaion. I have edited my post, while pointing out the error, My sincere apologies.

I feel somewhat the same on single player, but this is competitive GAAS, and they knew exactly what they were doing when they did it here. People who do this seriously already know every map, every spawn and every weapons characteristics within three days. (I’m wrong about this see below) This is simply another pay to win mechanic for the kind of people who play 12 hours a day, reach max rank in three days and hunt rookies who didn’t spend the extra money to play early.

I have been corrected and apologize for the mistake. It is not competitive and that mostly renders my point moot. I’m leaving this here for posterity.
