And if you’re allergic to MMR like me, just pray you can stay in an area where herd immunity keeps up.

Smear and ghosting are bad on VA in my experience. I had one around when Miles Morales first came out and it was so bad I thought my tv was broken, and Samsung agreed and sent a guy to replace the panel. The new panel did the same thing though, and at that point I just sold it and bought an OLED.

I mean, every previous ES game has had the modloader as part of the launcher, allowing you to enable or disable mods as well as change their load order from there directly.

It’s $199 I think, but yeah I understand entirely. I used an Astro C40 before so this was actually the cheaper option of the two.

Nationalization of critical industries is in fact a good thing, even when a shit government like the UK does it.

If you do the Duaksense Edge you get the nice locking USB connection too, which would reduce wear on the USB port compared to other controllers. It’s easily my most used controller.

Not to mention the US still hasn’t paid reparations for their genocide, and trump dismantled programs designed to clean up Vietnam era bombs and pollution that still kill people there, while China is partnering with them to build infrastructure. There’s still a lot of animosity over Chinas invasion though, they really should have sided with the Vietnamese over the Khmer Rouge, but they were trying to get closer to the US at that time, who also supported the Khmer Rouge.

Even then, they moved some of their iPhone operations to India, and they had to scale back plans because the Indian workforce doesn’t have the skills needed to perform the work, and getting a made in India iPhone is pretty much a marker of getting a lemon. Significantly lower quality control, significantly higher tolerance for defects.

If that happens, colleges might have to cut some of the massive administrative waste their bureaucracies have developed over the last few decades that are the majority of the reason for increased tuitions (outside of greed).

Oh who am I kidding, they’ll cut services for students and pay professors even less, bureaucrats will never willingly surrender power.

Sure, give me an example since you are the one who claimed it, and I’ll do the legwork for you on what it is today.

There’s differences in the languages even written, for example in mandarin thank you is 感谢/谢谢 whereas in Cantonese it’s 多謝 or 唔該 depending on context. Cantonese also typically uses traditional characters rather than simplified. That second character up there in 多謝 is 谢 but in traditional rather than simplified. I’d imagine most research papers are going to be in simplified Chinese with mandarin phrasing, but learning traditional characters and going to simplified might be easier than learning simplified and then going to traditional.

 

They’ve also been sandbagging negotiations for the last 9 months, the union today is on a march, no strike action yet.

 

I just found this band and I am in love with every song they do. It’s so elegant, and the composition is really on point.
