Pain. It notifies you that your body is injured in some way, and generally in what area so that you can do something about it.

That being said, I think your original premise is oversimplified. I agree that emotions aren’t instructions, but they’re more than notifications–they’re part of the inner workings of our brains that can happen for a multitude of reasons. The common denominator is that most of them help us survive in some way.

Believing that poverty is a moral failure. Though that’s been an issue for millenia.

I don’t know if it would give you as much hard drive space as you want, but I got an Odroid HC4 a while ago and it’s been great. One of the very few SBCs with two SATA slots ready to go.

Buco seems to be having a good time. 9/10, unsure how Eaton feels.

Just cleaned mine up a bit recently!

PC on the left, RPi for simple stuff and an Odroid HC4 as my media and backup server.

Not pictured: another RPi dedicated to HomeAssistant, a magic mirror, and networking stuff.

Also not pictured: my workbench tools on the upper shelves, which have not been tidied recently.

This is a reasonable take, though I don’t feel the same way.

OoT felt like an open world game at a time when those largely didn’t exist (some did, but not really on console). The gameplay was still somewhat linear, but it felt like there was a lot of freedom compared to a lot of other games at the time. As a kid, I spent hours just exploring. I’m guessing this has something to do with its popularity at the time.

OoT in 2K at 200fps is great for the nostalgia kick!

I always preferred 8 and 9 over 7. For some reason, the characters in 7 never held my interest as much as in other games, and the gameplay was pretty basic for an RPG of that age.

The fetch quests were particularly disappointing for me, given the history of Elder Scrolls games (cough cough Morrowind cough). I didn’t mind the combat system (being able to equip anything in either hand was an improvement over previous games), but much of it did feel the same.

Sounds like someone was butthurt because they didn’t get to play as Oddjob…

Fucking Oddjob.

It was very pretty, and the soundtrack deserved the praise it received. Nothing too innovative about the gameplay though, and the story was good but typical for this genre.

That being said, I did enjoy it a lot. But that gameplay style is one of my favorites, so the visuals and music were just perks.

Bob Dylan was loved for his song writing. People didn’t love his voice or his playing, but they loved hearing him in spite of his voice because his songs meant so much.

The most popular versions of his songs were often recorded by other folk groups.

I’m the kind of person who would ask for their definition of “rarely”. How many 9s are we talking? If it’s at least three nines, I’m one-boxing it.

Not one muppet, but this exchange:

Gonzo: “It just feels weird.”

Rizzo: “That Mr Arrow is dead?”

Gonzo: “Yeah, that. And my pants are filled with starfish.”

Rizzo: “…you and your hobbies!”

Any school district not complying with the executive order will lose all federal funding

They’re going to lose that 10% or so under this administration anyway, might as well teach actual science.

and not be allowed to name any school after President Trump.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

If we consider what happened with Trump’s exwife, I’d guess he’d order a hit on Melania a couple days before her NDA expires, then bury her a couple days later on one of his own golf courses.

We can only hope he doesn’t live that long.

That’s not fundraising. That’s called extortion.

Also remember that “just following orders” didn’t save Nazis.

For me, each step seems to have corresponded with hearing a new piece of advice and gradually learning to apply it.

For example, “don’t play hope chess” or “don’t force your opponent to make a good move” were both things that I had to work at, but once they clicked, my competency felt a lot better. And each thing only made sense once I was at a point to understand it and ready to start applying it.

Also in English, there’s Rosa, Marigold, and Iris (though Marigold might be a color rather than a flower?)
