Yet right-wingers have been complaining about how left-wing and "woke" universities are...

Thank you! It was greyed out just yesterday! Haha

Oops, thank you for the correction!

But the Department emphasised that all video game companies are beholden to existing consumer laws and regulations, adding:

"If consumers are led to believe that a game will remain playable indefinitely for certain systems, despite the end of physical support, the [Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008] may require that the game remains technically feasible (for example, available offline) to play under those circumstances."

Interesting! It sounds like there's no interest in preserving live service games at the moment, but this would be a great step for toning down "always online" games.

The petition needs more signatures before it'll be considered, apparently

Anyone know where to pre-order the physical copy in Canada?

Yeah, in the first bit, I could see where she's coming from even if I disagree with her.

Then she starts going on about welfare, and I'm rolling my eyes and the portrait starts making sense.

Then that line hits, and it feels like something by a movie villain or a teenager on 4chan...

It WAS 40 years ago though, and I don't know how old she is. Hopefully she's smartened up by then.

I was never sure if that game was good or not because I was so bad at it! Haha

The Wario game is pretty good if you liked the original Game Boy Wario games.

Mario Clash is a fun take on the original Mario Bros game which didn't need to be 3D, so I'm a little disappointed they haven't revisited it.

Jack Bros. is notable for being Atlus' first release in the West, and I remember having some fun with that one.

Mario Tennis was also pretty good, but there are probably better Mario Tennis games by now.

How many consoles can say that ~28% of their library is worth checking out? Haha

Better than after work. And sometimes free food is free food!

Do you speak English at home with your family? If not, where did you learn it?

LMAO! I tried it, and it said:

The man takes the goat across the river first, then he returns alone and takes the boat across again. Finally, he brings the goat's friend, Mr. Cabbage, across the river.

LMAO

I asked what if the man can't swim...

In that case, the man can still take the goat across the river first. Then, he ties the goat to the boat and pulls the boat across the river using a rope, ensuring he stays on the side of the river where he can safely manage the boat without swimming.

I asked who Mr. Cabbage is...

My apologies for the confusion! Mr. Cabbage is a playful addition. In the classic riddle, there's usually no mention of Mr. Cabbage. It's just the man, the goat, and perhaps another item or animal depending on the version of the riddle. I just added Mr. Cabbage for some extra fun!

Then I asked what some other additions could be...

Certainly! You can add various characters or items to make the riddle more entertaining. Here are a few ideas:

1. Mr. Wolf: The man, the goat, and Mr. Wolf need to cross the river. But if the man leaves the wolf alone with the goat, the wolf will eat the goat.

2. Ms. Hen: The man, the goat, and Ms. Hen need to cross the river. But if the man leaves the hen alone with the goat, the goat will eat the hen.

3. Professor Fox: The man, the goat, and Professor Fox need to cross the river. But if the man leaves the fox alone with the goat, the fox will eat the goat.

4. Princess Diamond: The man, the goat, and Princess Diamond's precious gem need to cross the river. But Princess Diamond has warned that if anyone other than herself touches the gem, they'll be cursed.

Feel free to mix and match or come up with your own additions!

And the "solution"...

Ah, that's a fun twist! Let's see:

1. The man takes Mr. Cabbage across first, then returns alone.
2. Next, he takes Ms. Hen across but brings Mr. Cabbage back.
3. He then takes Princess Diamond's gem across, leaves it on the other side, and takes Mr. Wolf across.
4. The man leaves Mr. Wolf with Ms. Hen on the other side and returns alone.
5. He takes Princess Diamond across, but before he leaves, he swaps Mr. Cabbage with Princess Diamond's gem.
6. The man brings Mr. Cabbage across, leaving Princess Diamond's gem with Mr. Wolf.
7. Finally, he takes the goat across.

Everyone safely crosses the river without any mishaps!

I'd probably go with something like...

Hey.

(Leave a pregnant pause to let it sink in a bit)

I'm sorry[.] I can't be the good listener you want when it comes to this/these topics [at work]. I know you're very interested in this/them, and I value our relationship as colleagues. I can't think about this stuff at work, so I'd really rather we stop talking about it/them, please.

Or, instead of a "bar" conversation..

This is a lunch conversation. And only go if you're willing to listenand he agrees to foot the bill! Lol

Depending on how many good restaurants are around and what your free time is worth...but depending on the topic, I'd take a free lunch for that! Lol

I'm not sure what the old title was, but it looks like the only "freedom unit" now is "profits"

Yeah, one big factor is to not assume that you're an expert because you're good at something else and you "did your own research" on this topic

On the one hand, this could be devastating for privacy purposes.

On the other hand, this could be groundbreaking and life-changing technology for people incapable of speech!

It's kind of a "this is why we can't have nice things" situation... except the other way around. The potential for abuse is probably WHY this technology will get funded...lol

Make me eligible to vote. That's about the only thing he CAN do.

isOccupied is a good enough boolean for the state of the washroom stall. If you need more information, maybe another data type would be better (such as an Enumerated type).

Instant oats + brown sugar or maple syrup + seeds and/or nuts

The British were right with their Ice Lollies!
