Fallout one was annoying on my first playthrough. But once I knew, it was no longer a problem.

I dont mind time limits. I would just want to know about them before-hand. Get some kind of hint early on that time matters in this game. Because by regular game convention it never does. Games are usually balanced against if it is a time limit or not. Deus Ex Human Revolution gave that hint, but then nothing else had time limits after that first quest. Thats annoying too, but less so.

Without spoilers, I would like to know too. I tried limit my rests at first, but gave up on that when stuff got annoyingly difficult.

I'm soon done with the first area and only thing I know so far is that on your second full rest theres a small main plot progression. Other than that no quests seemingly have had time limit so far, I could leave them right before a hard boss battle with civilians in immediate danger and can come back many rests later and nothing has changed.

What alternatives to git are popular-ish these days?

Before I was introduced to git, i had only tried Microsofts SVN server and it was a crap experience compared to git. Git just clicked with me, i fell instantly in love with it. It was fast and logical. And its file merging worked great. The only drawback was the program command args, it was hard to understand. So I relied a lot on GUI apps. And still do because I suck at memorizing more complex commands and args and at navigating the history graph with only colored ascii text.

Thats an irrational fear. You should be more afraid of sharks. If they get into your house, they WILL delete your code.

Once I can pick and choose my body and change it on a whim, and it feels like my body, Im gonna end up staying in VR unhealthily much.

Even with the tech we have today, when I first used VR and selected a body for something like VRChat, I started feeling like the body was my own. You know the "fake hand" experiment? Something like that. But the illusion is quickly destroyed as soon as I touch something or movement dont match up. And the effect gets weaker for each time.

It was such a cool feeling. I want it again.

I tend to explain stuff to myself to figure out if I think I got it. Sometimes I try explaining stuff on reddit and hope anyone corrects me if I'm wrong. Works great imho.

Punching down? It was intended to be a relatively tame joke about the world have been small for quite a while, and pre-emptively make light of those who would think this "being too easily offended" is a relatively new thing. Im sorry if I failed to communicate this correctly.

I'm pretty sure theres been a lot of christian Bible burnings, theres even YT videos of a few. I cant find anyone claiming all christians are brutal ass-backwards murderers but it probably exist. Not that anyone cares enough to cause a diplomatic issue just for that. Also the "christians" burns other "christians" Bible's too ocassionally, just because of slight differences. Probably a big reason why nobody cares anymore.

Its the same jokes and the same characters. Feels like no time has passed at all since previous season. I'm not sure if thats a good or a bad thing. On one hand I was hoping they evolved a bit more, on the other hand any changes would have launched the ire of those who expect stuff to stay the same. On a third sewer-mutant hand they tried doing different with Disenchanted, I loved that they did, but it failed.
