I played it once with friends in my 20s for fun, invited by them. Was more the hanging out that was fun, but I didn't hate it. I suppose it's also a sport you can be a bit drunk for... though I guess golf cart driving drunk might still be dangerous.

In the distant future, the year 2000:

It's everything you want? Everything you need? Everything inside of you that you wish you could be?

In addition 5o what others mentioned, Final Fantasy is named for nostalgic company reasons, not necessarily for the public. Square was doing bad and going out of business, and decided to have a passion project for their last release, the Final Fantasy of theirs.

It saved the company. So in its honor, their flagship RPGs are always named Final Fantasy. While they often have Easter eggs, like Biggs, Wedge(?), Cid, Moogles, etc, the games are mostly unrelated otherwise. 14 does have tons of references to others in the series though.

Depos, Jan 6th, Endgame, and time travel. I did enjoy a good number of Project Camelot too.

Honestly my username is based off my real name and I use it for a number of other things my family members all know about. At best, they might be surprised and some of my comments discussing events they were involved with, and perhaps my descriptions of how the religion some of them are still in harmed me, because I don't bother discussing that with those still religious du3 to not wanting to fight.

Of course, I'm mentioning specifically my comments to reddit and both lemmy accounts. Why do I have two? I started on World then World defederated a few communities I was interested in keeping up with, not because I really participated, but because I like having a balanced input and some were interesting for work (mostly piracy and privacy, as I work in IT). I don't use reddit anymore except maybe old solutions for work stuff, but I still have much more comments there than on lemmy so far.

Sure, my comment doesn't cover every use case, and apologies if it sounded like I was accusing anyone who had one. I'm just saying I know my limitations somewhat helps me decide not to do certain driving, and the ability to just drive without worry might have me drive more often beyond the 25. Even my own driving would often go beyond 25, as H-mart alone would eat 25 for me, so I'd make half my trip on gas everytime.

That and from what I understand of them they only cover about 25 miles. The reason to get a plug in hybrid vs a full plug in is generally because you need to drive more than that on average. I have a full electric from 2015 with a horrible battery, and on a single charge I can get ~50 miles at most in greater Atlanta area, GA, USA.

That's mostly fine for me, but I once looked up the plug in hybrids for trios etc, and I sometimes forget to charge and have issues having to charge on the road. A plug in Hybrid would have saved me those minor problems, but not because of the electric part. I have a feeling anyone using a plug in hybrid is barely using the battery part of it. I get by because I mostly use the car for shopping, so on average it's once or twice a week, all within 1 battery's usage a day.

A friend of mine who used to be a coworker got an i9 MacBook Air because the company he worked with liked him (were an MSP, so we support other companies). He doesn't even use or like em, I think his wife used it.

Racists, and or people who don't care about people and want to revel in it. For some people, doing such vile things gets them off.

I do see it, but consistently call it out if I can. I like to use the example of POGS if anything regarding viral trends or whatever comes up. POGS were just printed pieces of cardboard that encouraged gambling, and we morons ate that shit up.
