Oh man this just awakened the memory of the “Big Dawg” stores. Actual stores that were ONLY big dawg merch shirts, hats, and pants.

It sucks, but there is a lot of precedent in the US for “you are allowed to be as stupid with your money as you want, as long as you’re sane.”

He may have delusions around his religion or beliefs, but he has the rights to have those delusions and beliefs, and if he wants to place bets on his beliefs because he holds them that strongly then he can. If someone else spots him as a mark and takes advantage of him, sure it was dumb of him, and they may not be in the cleanest moral area, but that’s America, learn your lesson and move on.

You go to New York and some guy sells you a newspaper that helps raise money for charity and the homeless for $5 and you believe him then find out it’s a free paper all over the city, that’s life.

We can protect you when you don’t know any better, but when you bet everyone in the room that you can fly and you can’t? That’s a hard bet to make buddy, and a harder bill to pay.

Alright who’s going to tell me this is some terrible sign of climate change, poison in the water, or some dickheads on yachts chasing it with a minigun or something.

First comment to get a cringe out of me as I thought of the spiky pedals. Congrats

Was that intended to look like a worm parasite?

Good. Let’s go, round two baby, ride this wave all the way to the bottom

I’ve often called Target “Walmart without the stigma”. They advertise themselves and nice and clean, but it’s just Walmart with clients that don’t want to be seen going to Walmart.

I have a friend who open carries everywhere as well. We do not live in a dangerous area at all and he carries this thing to the grocery store.

I call it his “big boy gun” because it makes him feel like he’s a big boy now, like a kid who wears his “big boy” pants with no diapers.

Problem is things will have to get worse for a lot more people for that to really happen en masse, I support the idea but I wouldn’t probably stop because none of my debts are debilitating. I have a good savings and my only payment is my mortgage and whatever I put on my credit card that month. I’m not going to just stop paying my mortgage for a political movement, and a lot of other people won’t either, supporting or not, people don’t like risking their homes when they don’t technically have to.

All the banks have to do is make examples of a few good people and all the others will likely fall back in line. Finances and debt is something that is very personal to a lot of peopl so people are hesitant to let that flag fly and unite publicly as well.

Is it rotating weekly? If this is so common then what is the benefit of this? Like surely just keeping your employees constantly confused/off balance during their shift isn’t good

I had a job that rotated, but it was quarterly, and it was so nobody got “stuck” on nights/days.

“No it was about states rights”

“States rights to what?”

In universe I want to guess they added pressure to the back side of the system to balance out the water vs air pressure since it’s part of the training system. That said, it was probably just movie magic bs.

As someone else said, recovering alcoholics, but also they market towards sustainability. Infinitely recyclable aluminum instead of single use bottles and all that. I’m still just gonna drink from the tap most of the time, but I’ll pick one up on a road trip or if I’m going on a picnic or something

There’s significantly less plastic in them, they only have to have a very thin coating to prevent the metal from oxidizing, vs having to be structurally supportive and retain its own shape. On top of that, aluminum is infinitely recyclable

That’s the funny part, if I’m the owner, I can do whatever I want. “It’s a must”? Too bad, it’s my restaurant and I want to sit here. “You’re being rude to a customer” I’m being rude to this customer, too bad.

It sucks because there’s a lot about the ending (I’ll be as spoiler free as possible) but the ending basically being “And then nothing happened” is kind of the point. It’s meant to be bittersweet, because the story is about escapism but that ultimately you have to come back to reality eventually. The ending does the big lead up of oh man there’s a big fantasy and heres the happy ever after. but throughout the whole game it repeats over and over that things aren’t as magic and wild as you want it to be, that sometimes there’s a simple, boring, and sometimes sad explanation, and at the end of the day reality is the only thing that stays.

Firewatch is definitely more of a “reflecting philosophy” game than a straight up “gamer story” game.

A smaller switch would be a terrible idea. They’re already pushing so hard to have mainstream games on the console, and those games have UI elements that can only get so small before they’re useless. You’d have to develop your UI around being used on these tiny screens, which either takes extra work or leaves big screen users screwed.

A smaller screen switch would basically be relegated to phone games, and all other games would lose a lot of detail to size
