These do sometimes still happen, at least in Amerikkka. It normally takes the form of a person standing outside the courthouse holding I sign saying "I littered" or whatever.
I shot Santa while he was entering my house via the chimney
That sounds like a comedy premise. Santa gets shot by a paranoid homeowner and someone has to save Christmas.
You could definitely put a grow light and a dutch bucket in a closet. My home setup started at about $100 and consisted of some white buckets with holes drilled into them (it's way more expensive now but that's cuz I bought a greenhouse, solar panels, space heater, a big battery...).
Hydroponics. Requires some setup but once it's in place you have plants growing while consuming up to 90% less water than traditional agriculture, and it's easy to make the whole system totally passive so that the only labor inputs are putting in new plants and harvesting old ones.
It also turns out that some plants really benefit from being grown hydroponically - put them under a grow light and in a greenhouse and you can grow multiple times as much produce on the same parcel of land while consuming less water and fertilizer to do it.
It's a process that can be scaled up industrially, but because of the high upfront cost it's fairly rare, the most mature industrial greenhouses are those in The Netherlands. Once a farm has made the transition there are logistical advantages to hydroponics as well - a farm can stagger grow times to have consistent smaller harvests instead of one or two massive harvests, making staffing and income more consistent.
Not every plant can be grown this way, but those that can absolutely should. Especially in places like California where I live, where we have the financial and technological ability to do so and our environment would greatly benefit from reduced water use.
I never got to run this, but I remember after playing Prey putting together a dungeon themed off of mimics and getting really nasty with them. I imagined that after a couple rooms the players would adopt a policy of preemtively fireballing every new room before entering it.
MCAS Futenma is placed right in the middle of where the rest of the city would be, forcing everything to be more spread out than it should.
Look at the placement of this runway and despair.
I broke 1500 in Star Fox 64 once and I've never been able to do it since.
That's definitely a thing, but the buildup isn't too fast so it just becomes a regular maintenance item.
They call that the Peter Principle, and there's at least one Ig Nobel Prize winning study which found that it's better to randomly promote people rather than promote based on job performance.
As a boomer shooter enjoyer myself, I think the main reason that the genre is partially inoculated from Gamergate BS is that its remained pretty niche and indie-driven, while the audience that generates artificial outrage about video games only target big budget releases. I mean the biggest release in the category that I can think of is probably Warhammer 40k: Boltgun, made by a studio with only 61 people.
Also I think that the age range for boomer shooters perfectly overlaps with guys who grew up with stuff like Xena and Buffy, but maybe that's just me.
Sooner or later Id will make a Doom game with a female protag, and that's when shit will hit the fan (until they play it and it turns out to be really fun and then they'll all pretend that it was "anti-woke" all along).
I feel this comment. As I've gotten older my sleeping position has gone from "eh just fall on the bed" to "if I don't meet every criteria on this fifty point checklist by the time I'm lying down I'm better off getting all the way up and starting over because I'm not falling asleep like this"
Oh I just figured it out, instead of hold pressing the square you gotta press square to get your app overview, and then tap on the icon for the app you want to split screen and select the split screen option.
ytmnds were peak meme culture and the only thing that comes close is some of the sound reuse that goes on on TikTok.
Android used to let you use two apps at once, you would hold the square button for a second and it would shrink your current app to the corner, and then you would open another and it would split screen the two of them.
idk when they got rid of it but I used to use it a lot and it worked fine so I really don't know why they did.
edit: they still have it but they inexplicably changed how to do it
YES HE DESERVED TO DIE AND I HOPE HE BURNS IN HELL!
He started skating, made an airplane noise and crashed into his friend, lmao.
