Going off of this, are you able to call the retainer and give them a heads up? “I’m getting on a flight from here to there and it is at so and so time, I can update you etc. Then, if they have no contact after 24 hours, maybe they can help start an investigation, reach out to some local news orgs?
It might cost money for no reason, but is it an option?
Hmmm… price gouging now, are we? Just a month ago I was finally able to get one when they had been out of stock for quite some time.
Maybe the closest that I know of so far: Rue Valley?
I used to have a lava lamp as a child. Like another commenter asked, are they safer now than before? I remember my parents telling me to turn it off after an hour or so because they got too hot and could break the glass or set something on fire.
If they are better now, can someone recommend a good place to buy one? :-)
Watched the recent update on it. Definitely not easy.
Seriously. I clear my cookies on Firefox exit because I don’t want their shit on my computer if it isn’t needed.
This would cause me to see them every single damn time.
I have a bad habit of washing my hands too much, so I never have this issue with anything like mice or controllers. :-P
I remember not liking 3 when it came to the Xbox at the time, but I played over 150 hours of the Legendary Edition with some mods that improve 3 and actually incorporate a lot of the choices from the first 2 games and 3 that made the ending hit even more for me!
I might be wrong as I just quickly looked this up, but it might be this mod?
There was a mod for Fallout 4 that made it all green and full of forests. It was awesome to me, because after awhile, the barren wasteland gets old to look at!
I can confidently say the HDDs I bought before Christmas last year are double the price I bought them for.
This was me. After I “proved” myself to be a “worthy” employee, the raises came. I also work in an environment where things are still pretty old school though, so take that will a giant grain of salt.
Not just women. Goes both ways, trust me!
I’ll be honest with you, I never cared about any of that stuff when I was younger, so it wouldn’t have made much of a difference to me back then.
As I said, the zipped file was not a RAR file, but this was almost 20 years ago, so that is a bit fuzzy. 7zip was much slower for the file that I unzipped, that much I do know! I still remember seeing a progress bar on 7zip, which I had never seen before on WinRAR (unless it was one of those multipart files, which was rare even then for me!). That is what stood out to me and why I can remember it so well. I even remember asking myself, “Why do people prefer 7zip if it is slower?”!
I will say these days I don’t use WinRAR, and just stick with Nanazip and Ark! I care more about stuff like that now though, so I appreciate you giving me more context! :-)
So, a long time ago, I tried using 7zip for extracting a zip file or similar. I don’t think it was a RAR file at the very least. I noticed that 7zip was slower than WinRAR, which is what I had always used since it was the first I’d heard of a program that could unzip files.
Fast forward a few years, I had some money and bought a WinRAR license, just because I liked the program that much.
Fast forward a few more years, and I use Nanazip on Windows and Ark on KDE/Fedora.
I will always remember the book stack icon for zips/RARs/etc. fondly and just how much faster (again way way back in the day). Multipart RARs were how I got a lot of stuff back in the day, even larger mods!
Anyway, I know it is popular to hate on WinRAR, but for me, it will always be remembered fondly for what it was. :,-)
Pokemon Unbound is the best Pokemon game I have ever played. It only sucks because now I’m playing through other ROM hacks like Pokemon Prism, Pokemon Brown, Pokemon Glazed (Unofficial patched) and realizing that they will NEVER be as good as Unbound was. That is the only downside to Pokemon Unbound! :-P
I want to use Godot to make a King’s Field-like game, but the time needed for that is something I just don’t have right now! Maybe one day! T-T
I have to keep Windows installed for modding my games (Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Kingdom Hearts, etc.) and I just got Tiny11, then use ChrisTitusTools to tweak it to be at least somewhat more respectful towards me.
If modding isn’t something you plan on doing, NUKE THAT POS! :-P
Been playing Suzerain as a socialist President… it has been so nice and has genuinely brought a smile to my face reading some of the in game news articles of my choices.
Tap for spoiler
The Radical is not as radical as I thought in the beginning of the game. It’s like if Jeff Bezos bought the NYT in the in-game world. I rolled my eyes so hard after they had been agreeing with me the few hours I had in it, before that article that disagreed with my decision made me wonder who was running it!
