I am very happy with having bought Paralives when it debuted in Early Access. I had followed their work online ever since the first videos the creator posted back around eight years ago and the team seems really dedicated on making a good game.
Virtual dollhouse-style life simulators are full of moving parts and I understand that there’s still a lot to grow from what’s currently on the game (even more so considering the size of the dev team), and with the frequent game updates they’ve been shipping I can’t wait to see where they take it.
(them wresting the life sim monopoly from EA’s hands is a nice bonus.)
I like water types, and there are a few dual type mons that bring in some type advantages to counter what one would typically bring to a water-type gym (e.g. Palpitoad/Seismitoad and Marshtomp/Swampert are all water/ground to nullify electric types, or the Lotad line to avoid grass-type weaknesses).
As for a gym theme, I like the idea of a spa/thermal baths place that functions as the town’s Pokémon Center, with a closed off area for gym challengers. Gym leaders are often important members of the community, so I think it makes sense that the gym leader would have other duties to their town in addition to battling.
I understand that concern, but I’d say that it’s one of those shows that picks up as time goes on, as there is a main plot line that is slowly established before really driving the plot. The last two seasons have some stellar episodes, with the show losing some of its procedural nature.
It is still science fiction, so of course that whenever a character hacks something it always looks dumb.
Yeah, but those are moving from side to side. To my recollection, you never see a portal in a wall that’s moving in a direction that’s perpendicular to the plane it’s in.
I generally prefer text messaging, but there are instances when a synchronous communication method has its merits:
when playing video games with friends, or just shooting the shit after dinner, a voice call (usually on Discord) works best.
when I need to vent to a friend about more serious stuff, I prefer a voice call as well (this is mostly just so there’s no screenshots but also my messages would be so longwinded)
when something is time-sensitive or requires immediate back and forth (e.g. I’m at the supermarket to pick up dinner and I want to ask my SO what they want to eat)
video chats are reserved for calls with my mum (we usually chat for like 2 minutes so that she knows I’m okay and to check if there are any news), my SO when they go abroad for work, and seldom my nieces (because they are lovely girls and I love to chat with them)
Once again, texting takes precedence unless it’s one of these instances, which all consider people I’m comfortable around. I still dread sometimes having to call someplace to make an appointment.
Yeah, even physical pc games often just have a download key inside and no disk, and computers haven’t had disk drives for a while.
(I know you can get external ones, but even cases nowadays don’t account for the ability to have them as an internal component)
I did manage to snag a copy of House Flipper 2 (it just had a Steam key, no disk) for 6€ a few months ago when the lowest historical price at the time (according to IsThereAnyDeal) was in the 20s or 30s, so I’m very much in the camp of physical releases in any platform. There is much more choice for consumers, game preservation arguments notwithstanding.
I did feel this today and so I empathise, as the Lidl close to my place got new shelving and they reorganised the whole store.
I felt very out of sorts as my routine hinged on me going through almost all aisles in an S pattern, and I took longer to see if I had everything I needed.
It will take some time, sure, and I’d say that the categories are better organised now, but it was still a bit lame.
In my country (also Western Europe), we only get them if a film passes the three hour mark. We saw the extended versions of the LOTR trilogy a few months back and they were a lifesaver for a quick bathroom break!
I’ve had a Kindle Paperwhite in the past and now I have a Kobo Clara 2E (that’s the BW one).
I prefer the Clara because:
it is not an Amazon product, and I even bought it at a local retailer
it works with epub files for books — even if Kobos have their own kepub file extension, calibre has plugins that deal with that
setting up calibre-web on my home server and having the Clara connect to it was very simple
They both have water resistance and warm light. The Paperwhite’s screen is a bit bigger, but the difference is not monumental.
In the end, they are similar enough both in terms of specs and price that depending on your use case you will be fine with either one, but if anything I mentioned above is an important factor to you then I hope this was helpful :)
Zotero 7 (the latest main version) broke compatibility with Zotfile, but there are plugins around that are either forks of the version that ran on Zotero 6 or reimplementations of Zotfile’s features.
I personally have been using Zotero Attanger and it’s been working great for me.

Yeah, the headline is talking about the Billboard Hot 100, a chart of the 100 most popular songs of the week.
The news about her songs being in the “top 10” just means that all her charting singles appeared for the first time in one of the first 10 positions.
I just checked the chart on the Billboard website and it’s now at number 12, but it debuted last week at the first position.

I don’t understand, why did you post a picture of a pride flag?

The bottom of the gym ad says “Ottawa sign rentals”, so I’d say it checks out
who is this diva though
She has also been in a number of high-profile productions way before Shrek 5, such as HBO's Euphoria, the Dune films, and MCU's Spider-Man films.
After falling, the tree trunk was still connected to the stump and was starting to rise again.
Only when the lumberjack chopped the remaining bit did the trunk fall for good.

It’s in Porto, in the riverside area.

And they know it themselves (warning: also a TVTropes link)
We can have a little suspension of disbelief to ensure the joke lands
I mean if they don’t use it for anything else it’s just a funky food bowl for the cats
