The article is literally right there. Why are you being weird about this?

Microblog Memes. It is a Microblog.

Their hybrid mattress is damn good for the price, especially when it’s on sale. Not everyone can afford spending so much money. At the time I couldn’t, that Ikea mattress was leagues ahead of the competition.

I did the same research and your second set of points are spot-on. Hybrid mattress with pocket springs are amazing.

The only physical store worth a damn is Ikea. Their hybrid mattresses aren’t bad and decently priced. Although it tended to sag after a few years, it was still worth it for the price I paid.

I’ve since gone with Titan mattress and have been extremely happy paying a bit more for the increased quality and durability. I’ve had mine for 3 years and it hasn’t shown any signs of wear.

Yeah, as an American I’m surprised it’s only 60 percent. Pretty much anything I’ve ever seen available to me has been washed/graded/refrigerated. Maybe farmer’s markets? But no way do they have 40 percent market share. I’ve occasionally had friends with coops so I’m not unfamiliar with having shelf stable eggs, though.

At this point I think the thing that’d freak out Americans the most is the whole thing about not needing to refrigerate. It’s ingrained now.

3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:

1. Counterfeits. Can get the items direct for same price & shipping now anyways.
2. Shipping so unreliable.
3. My “new” items were quite often repackaged returns, usually missing parts.

How do you think Kelce Landed Taylor?

I mean, it’s pretty simple for me in that I won’t pay for a streaming service that has ads. Others might, but I don’t care what others pay for. I left cable for this reason and I’ll leave its next incarnation if that is to be.

Yup, it’s so easy now to buy direct. Same price, same shipping, no counterfeits. One of the things that was really annoying me about Amazon was how often my “new” item was so obviously already opened and returned, often with parts missing. I cancelled and haven’t looked back.

This is why I started using wireless charging whenever possible. USB will eventually fail from use.

Government runs on Access.

To back you up, the first Doom Patrol trailers did little justice to how weird that show is.

I don’t read much fiction, but I quite enjoyed the book Edge of Tomorrow was based on: All You Need Is Kill. The plots only overlap at a very high level, if that, so no worries on having it spoiled for you. It’s fun reading the protagonist’s thought process and I think the book does a far better job at making the aliens scary, the war desperate.

Wow. I had completely forgotten that I used to love Firefox mobile as I had customized everything with those extensions, till they disabled them and I switched.

This is it. Most games beyond small scope/indie projects start in Unreal.

Same here. I feel Reddit changed for the worse so slowly that I had completely forgotten what the glory days were like until I came to Lemmy. I forgot that there was actual discussion in the comments rather than the same ten lazy comments ad naseum.

I’m kinda surprised Lemmy is losing users since it feels like there is more engagement since I joined earlier this year.

Sorry for the very late reply, but I’m hoping you’ll still get this: Find movies where you feel like you’re in the minority for liking. Then find critics who feel the same way as you. Root through their review archives till you find at least a couple other films where you both agree on fringe films. When you’re done you should just have a couple critics left. Read them consistently and hopefully one or more will be your long term go-to.

This is how I found my absolute favorite critic, Walter Chaw. The summer X-Men 3 came out alongside Live Free Or Die Hard. Both got similar RT scores, but I hated XM3 and loved Die Hard. Decided that any critic who felt the same as me would understand me. Was one of the best decisions I made.

My schools had a zero tolerance policy for anyone involved in a fight for any reason. I saw a few kids suspended for clearly defending themselves. My father gave me regular talks to let me know that so long as the other person attacked first he’d fully support me defending myself however I needed.

It’s all subjective. The only way a critic can be helpful is if you become accustomed to their tastes and how they communicate them. It’s why Rotten Tomatoes CAN be a helpful tool but is so misunderstood as to be useless.

If a movie gets 10% on RT, but you’re in the 10% that fucking love that thing then that score means nothing.

The mini games can be a part of it. When they work they’re intuitive, quick, and immersive. But sometimes the mini games aren’t well thought out and/or not intuitive. The real problem for me is that I was 40 hours into the game and it’s not only introducing new elements but the tutorials long, uninteresting, and constant. The game just doesn’t have time to breathe.

I would say if you’re on the fence you’ll probably like it. Like I said, there IS an amazing game there. Just go in with lower expectations and you’ll have a good time.

Edit: it’s just frustrating because if the devs put the time spent on all the side elements into the core gameplay, then this game could have been something really special. As is, there are plenty of interesting things to do and cool, emergent moments smothered in a bunch of sub par game design and warioware.

Edit2: I’m definitely venting, too. The game looks incredible and there are also a ton of spoilers that you or others might find to be great moments.
