The auto industry lobbied to kill public transportation back in the day to sell more cars. For a recent example see Ellen Musk and the Hyper Loop.

Is Stranger of Paradise good? I never played it but you make it sound good.
Of the Ardbegs I've tried? Probably An Oa. Just bump up to the 10 instead if those are the only options.
On the other hand, I did just get a bottle of Wee Beastie which I really enjoyed. I think it's probably the best whiskey in the $40 range.
Uigeadail hits that perfect sweet spot of flavor, strength, and price. I’ll rotate between the 10, Uigeadail, and Corryvreckan. All of them are good be Uigeadail is the best I’ve had.
Yeah I definitely agree about dropping you in to a lived in world with it’s own culture, slang, and colloquialisms. I ended up loving it and the next two in the series. It was kind of amazing seeing so many cyberpunk themes originating in one text. At the same time seeing how you could say that Neuromancer was set in the same world as Blade Runner, almost like a fan fic, just in a different part of the world.
Have you tried Neuromancer by William Gibson?
Arranged by genre, alphabetically, chronologically, or autobiographically?
Nothing like a nice cup of hot milk to start the day, jk. It looks good, I never can do latte art correctly.
I’m partial to a cappuccino every once in a while but my diet keeps me to straight espresso most days.
Well I started playing SF6 with the standard Xbox controller, using Modern control scheme. I liked it but I’ve always wanted to get good with the Classic control scheme. I didn’t even know Hitbox was a thing. I started looking for a standard fight stick to use on the Xbox, was looking at the 8BitDo stick, and stumbled across the Hitbox. Then I went down the rabbit hole of diy enclosures and decided to go that route. So at least I’d have something nice to look at which I put together myself.
I like that setup. I’ve been thinking about adjusting my controls in game to move Drive Impact and Parry to the inside buttons and just shifting my right hand out a little. One thing that is going to take me a little while to get used to is how sensitive these Sanwa buttons are. Resting my fingers on the buttons are causing inputs to register. Even pressing the side of the button lightly is causing an input.
Definitely the smart way to go about it. For me, I’m playing on Xbox using the standard controller and the Modern controls are great but I really wanted to learn Classic.
When you play Bloodborne make sure you go ahead and get the DLC The Old Hunters as well. I really enjoyed the base game but fell absolutely in love when I went through the game with the DLC. As much as I love every FromSoft game I've ever played, Bloodborne is the only one I've got a Platinum for.
