I haven't played since ORAS, but I think they'll always have those tutorials cause they're targeted at kids. Like I was playing the original at 10 and now my kids starting to get into Pokémon at 6.

I feel like they should allow an "adult" version though. Like no hand holding and harder.

It's wild how little the most financially successful franchise of all time has innovated.

Yeah, I love the idea of fallout 1 & 2 and remember watching a friend play it when it was new, but I tried to get into it as an adult and just can't..

Same boat as you practicality

I guess, tbf, he has had some consequences. Most people know about it and despise him, the queen pretty much disinhereted him, and history will not be kind... But it's still very bourgeoisie "consequences" .

Mofo should be in jail, but fat chance of that happening

I assume he doesn't really think that, but thinks he's being a cute troll. Like picking 420.69 for everything.

Trying to deflect assumed criticism about him by being "funny".

Yeah... From NZ and realising I've never thought "is that a gunshot"?

He's fucking 70? I thought he preferred them younger

I played this on android a while back, it's really good tbh

I mean... You can be clinically dead and then revived with cpr and a defibrillator, so not entirely unrealistic.

"Lisa... I'm going to buy your knight"

The vacuum cleaner I currently have and have always have, it's not on here and now I'm confused... Or is that what is called a "cannister vacuum"?

We don't even fully understand the brain itself, let alone how to recreate it.

This is token click bait scientific "journalism"

Yeah, I was about to say, as a software engineer I can totally understand how that might have happened and am not surprised... But the skeptic/cynic in me feels like it's a convenient excuse.

While I won't deny there is a biological difference that impacts performance there's also a systemic societal difference that doesn't help.

In general women are not given the same support, whether from family, schools, coaches, research or funding, to become top athletes.

It's certainly much better that it has been in the past now days and it's getting better, but even just people saying "women aren't as good as men" is something that sinks into the psyche of women who want to compete.

It's akin to men from poorer nations who can't afford resources, time and training, having a hard time competing against "richer" nations who invest more into it

To add extra weight to this comment. It is a common tactic to attempt to "bounce" a batter out, which basically means bowling with enough speed at such a short length that it comes towards the body, and especially, the head. If a batter is unprepared, it usually requires getting out of the way because trying to play a shot is likely to end up with you getting out or struck by the ball.

The ball is much harder and denser than a baseball and even a famous up and coming professional, international, batter died when he failed to get out of the way and was struck in the head.

Basically, there is a very real safety concern for players when it comes to something like this.

I guess the idea is that if a person is giving you zero ad revenue, then them switching to a diff browser instead of removing ad blocker doesn't change your equation.

But if any of them do just turn off the ad blocker it's a win...

However I'm not sure if they lose other revenue because they don't use chrome (like data tracking info)

Thomas Jane was also fantastic. Same with Jared Harris. Shame they couldn't secure him for later appearances, his character is great and he did the belta accent so well.

I guess in terms of an actual weightless object... Not... But if you have 2 equal weight items, call their combined weight 1 weight unit, take one away, that's half a weight unit, take two away, that's zero weight units.

"what's your name?"

"achoo"

"a jew? Here?"

Ironically the main actress is a New Zealander.

Also wasn't aware aussie/kiwi accents were a fantasy trope, especially as those countries didn't really participate in the medieval period.
