Star field couple have been a lot of things if people who haven't picked up a controller in decades hadn't decided to try and make it as generic and casual as possible.

And maybe it's just me, but the second I

spoilerfinished the portal and restarted the game
, I lost all interest in playing the game itself.

They made the content of individual plays not matter to me, so once I did a few speed runs to the finish line I just deleted the game and haven't played it since.

Also i could never figure out their base management system. I was hoping for something like "fallout 4 settlements in space" but all I got was "way less complicated Satisfactory".

I stopped playing about a month after it came out, so there's a chance they fixed some issues that I didn't know were issues, but I still haven't had the desire to try playing it again.

Attorneys don’t just file a suit because their client said so: they generally need to be shown there’s an actionable case with a chance if winning

Man, I used to believe that.

The last 8 years have shown me otherwise.

A balrog? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Located entirely within the confines of the walkway leading from the crack of doom?

As someone who paid enough attention in highschool chemistry to get a B, and occasionally watches Nile(red/blue) and E&I videos.... I know some of these words/symbols!

I'm sure that would have looked great to all the gathered men who were still alive.

"oh yeah, the elves showed up and one of them went up to the crack of doom with Isildur after his father died, and the elf came back alone and wouldn't tell us what happened inside. Something's fucky. We better prepare for an attack from the elves."

Whether anyone actually threw hands immediately or not, men and elves would have a far shittier relationship after that.

The question is, did more suffering occur because Elrond didnt do this? We can't know.

(but probably)

My wife isn't quite nerdy enough to get this yet, and my parents haven't watched TNG in so long they don't remember the phrase.

I have nobody who gets this in my life...

I see no reason to "cut myself off" at any point, I still find games released in the last few years that look interesting, and some with release dates TBD that look neat.

I haven't bought a new console since July 2015 and have no plans to buy a new generation any time soon.

When my current console dies, I might upgrade, but likely I will find a cheap used replacement and keep playing what I already have.

Someday I will update all my stuff, just not today.

News flash!

This, just in: "Leaders of capitalist meat grinders prepared to lie to keep money flowing and try to pull in more"

I'm shocked.

Hey, I've seen this one.

A prehistoric virus is gonna infect someone with coldness until a plucky US-Marshall-turned-sherrif saves the day with his science-mined friends and colleagues.

I follow the proud American tradition my grandfather had of fighting fascism.

If the government of the states decides to be fascist, well...

But stabbing your neighbor isn't exactly something most people are willing to do.

And any sort of attempt at organization leads to Alphabet Squad raids and whatever bullshit charges they feel like throwing at you after deciding you're guilty of being a dirty commie/socialist/librul/not them.

"data gathering" basically.

But their reasoning for gathering the data wasn't good enough for the court to allow it, as they basically said "it's so we know how to talk to passengers", but as the court says, they can use less gender-specific wording.
