Yeah but like.... That's mildly irritating.

It's about equally as effective.
Or just patch the game to fool it into thinking it's connected, and allowing offline play.
I'm sure my off-the-cuff suggestion is in no way difficult to implement! It's probably just a switch somewhere. Check under the stack of papers over there...
I loved the Broadway musical, though I never got to see it in person.
Personally I don't see what the big deal is with the poster. Yeah, it wasn't the same as the original. It seemed fine to me. And yeah, they changed it to match. Also seemed fine to me.
And guess what? The woman being upset that they changed it? Seems fine to me. If my face were essentially Mike Wazowski'd off the cover of something, I'd be a little upset. Maybe not enough to make a public stir, but I'd privately bitch to people for quite some time.
I can definitely see some people considering it a PR nightmare, and do know some people who were pissed about the poster... But I just don't get the same feelings. It's just meh.
I'm sure plenty would say I'm just not an artist/into musical theater/whatever. Maybe that's true.
Now let's have this same conversation if they ever redo Fiddler On The Roof (1971), I'll probably have much stronger opinions since I was in that one multiple times...
Legitimately, I've been feeling like I'm just a jaded cynic because my first thought after seeing the videos was "yeah, 100% they got paid or encouraged to do this by someone in the IDF/Government/mossad in order to continue the victim narrative they love to play nowadays"
Like.... Maybe I'm just a shitty person, but it feels like the government of Israel really wants the world to equate the government with the people, and the country with all jews everywhere. So if you criticize one, you clearly must hate ALL of them, and therefore you are no better than a nazi in WW2.
It's the same society that just elected a fascist dictator-wannabe. No matter how many intelligent people you know, there's enough to do that.
Maybe warning labels were a mistake...
It's gonna be peak face-eating season during holidays when my parents go to retire during this presidency but find out that they can't because social security doesn't exist anymore, 75% of their paycheck goes to either the military budget or kings tribute tax, and everything has doubled in price.
I'll have you know 65% does not go out of my tail pipe.
It goes out a hole in the exhaust manifold that I'm too poor to patch up.
Trump has said.... for whatever that's worth.
His words are worth their weight in gold!
It's a wee bit out of my bailiwick, sad to say. Their "hobby smarts" are my "oh my god this is the most concentration I've ever had to use to figure something out smarts" although regular astronomy is a hobby I can never get enough of
All I've got for now is a tiny 4in newtonian , and though I do want to upgrade, it's on the back burner for a few years while all my other expenses are sorted.
Still orders of magnitude better than the refractor I used to have.
you wouldn’t treat a broken ankle with strong painkillers and continue walking as if nothing was wrong just because it doesn’t hurt anymore - would you?
Of course not! We limp around trying to keep it from hurting, praying to any deity that will listen and some that won't that it heals before you have to pay for a visit to urgent care.
The pills are just to help us go to work while we mentally figure out how many meals we will be skipping to pay for it.
Now ask me if I'm joking.
Anecdote time, feel free to SKIP
My buddy's humvee got tagged by an rpg during desert storm, everyone inside lived but most were injured. He got away with shrapnel embedded in his arm for most of the next two or three days until it all got removed. Apparently his elbow got it pretty bad.
Fast forward to 98, he's basically lost feeling in two of his fingers except hot/cold and pressure. "it's not service related"
2005, most of his hand is partially numb. "it's not service related"
2013, he has no feeling below the elbow, except sharp pain and extreme hot/cold. "it's not service related"
2015, he has deadeend feeling from his shoulder to his elbow. "it's not service related."
2017, he has difficulty moving his hand now unless he's looking at it. Spatial awareness is gone. Elbow down completely numb. Shoulder down almost completely numb.
2017, two months later, for seemingly no reason. "It's service related. You're on 100% disability. You have 24 hours to quit your job."
