SacralPlexus

Well TIL, thanks for educating me.

Though it occurs to me that she was speaking with an American accent though so I’m not sure of saying she should pronounce it the British way.

I’ve played it for about 6 hours and so far it’s kind of meh. I’ll admit I’ve not made it to the full in deep desert with PVP and so forth so my opinion still might change. But the early game is kind of slow for my tastes and the script writing / story is just senseless video game tripe.

Also a side note is that so far the voice acting for the story stuff is pretty bad overall. My favorite so far was when you’re exploring a shipwreck and find a voice log from the crash and the speaker identifies herself as Ensign whoever. But she mispronounces ensign as “en-sine” which made me do this:

Totally agree. I only got it to play with friends who are into it but was hoping it would be good. The story / cutscenes are so incredibly cheesy to me. It’s almost a parody but the joke never quite lands.

Surely you can’t be serious.

New Headline: Kamala Harris Doesn’t Know Difference Between Army & Marines.

It keeps a certain politician out of jail.

Serious answer: could be drugs/alcohol but he looks like he could be older and dementia is a possibility.

It’s always the ones you’d most suspect.

Subaru

Had a previous car that was manual. Then I bought a car with a CVT (continuously variable transmission) and it’s such a nuisance because it is always unpredictable when it will shift. So you go to pass someone, step on the gas and sometimes it takes off and other times it fiddles with shifting for a second before giving you any power. Can also be a real pain in stop and go traffic because it will have unpredictable amounts of power when starting from a stop. I’ve had this vehicle since 2017 and it’s always been this way. I don’t miss having to shift constantly but I do miss having a reliable amount of power when I’m in a certain gear - that’s what is so nice about a manual transmission. You feel more in control of the car. That said, my daily driver now is electric with no transmission and that is the best of all.

MSNBC Recap of the situation.

Basically Musk attacked Trump on Twitter over the big bill. It’s been escalating rapidly with Musk insinuating Trump should be impeached and threatening to start a “centrist” political party and Trump threatening Elon’s government contracts.

I truly hope this is the spiritual successor to the first game. I am one of those who was disappointed by Below Zero as I felt like they abandoned the core elements that made the first game so great.

I’ll confess I was a bit disappointed when they were like “We know you guys really love the Seamoth and Cyclops but no they aren’t going to be in the game.” If they just made a new (big!) map and story with all of the game play elements of the first game I think it would be a smashing success.
