For anybody thinking this new game will be anything like XCOM prepare for disappointment.

Jake has previously said that he is leaving turn-based tactics games behind.

Honestly, I thought the "Fuck the state" was the original until I searched for the artist to credit them.

who is in charge of the ship while the Captain and their Number One are asleep?

The night crew, of course.

This is why I hide my paper towels in a cabinet.

She does! She has a few puzzle toys that I switch between using each day.

She's a very smart cat, so I try to give her plenty of stimulation.

The joke in this meme is that the truth isn't even hidden anymore, it's embraced.

Vimm's Lair is the best site I know of for roms.

If you want to do emulation on steam deck I recommend using RetroArch. Here's a brief guide on setting it up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bbr0a6b1qHI

Agreed. Plus the animal testing is bad.

I'm hopeful that the tech won't be abused because it's life changing for those that need it.

The 29-year-old complete quadriplegic shared that he had lost sensation and suffered paralysis from below the shoulders after sustaining a spinal injury during a diving accident eight years ago

Arbaugh also revealed that the implant had given him the freedom to pull an all-nighter playing the strategy game Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 - something that he could not have done on his own before the surgery.

Received a report saying:

please allow the community to vote on dead pet posts.

The community already votes on dead pet posts via upvotes/downvotes. And the results are largely in favor of allowing these posts.

I understand that death is a tough subject for some people. These sort of posts make me tear up too. But our beloved furry friends are not immortal. They all die eventually.

If this community can serve as a place to help people grieve when they lose their pets then I'd say it's worth making a few people uncomfortable.
