Ostrich is delicious. I’ve eaten it in a restaurant once and cooked it myself two or three times. It tastes like a red meat, but cooks like white meat, so you have to be careful because it can overlook in a snap.

So your belief is that nobody who plays sports ever dies of heart disease? Yeah, no. Heart disease can be reduced through exercise (but never cut by 100%—that part of your post is just flat-out wrong). At times it can also be worsened by it—see the marathon runners who drop dead partway through the race.

The drug in question also isn’t a pill, but that’s the least part of your medical ignorance.

Completely agree, but I wouldn’t call Vernors a generic. It’s a competing brand.

Socks are another good answer, but there, it’s nothing but gold toe for me. They’re just so comfortable.

I buy nearly everything generic but generic Band-Aids have terrible adhesive so I always buy name brand.

Edit: Oh, and frozen pizza. I’ve had too many generics with crusts that might as well have been made of cardboard.

UwU I look just like Buddy Holly

O_o and you’re Mary Tyler Moore…

Puzzle and Dragons has a very clever twist on Match 3 gameplay combined with really obnoxious gatcha mechanics, so I’m very much looking forward to an Arcade version.

As someone who plays just draft, I really like that. I could see myself picking up several valuable dinosaurs in early rounds and then grabbing that as an enabler because nobody else would want it.

[–] morganth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 8 months ago

Yes, I’d love that.

Well damn. I loved the original trilogy and I have been saying for ages that I want a remake using modern game design and technology. But based on that website and trailer, I don’t think I’m getting what I wanted. Marathon had a multiplayer mode, yes, but the core was a single player story that made you feel like you were all alone in the world. This looks like not that.

I mean, if that was all they did, it would be absolutely trivial to defeat it. All someone would have to do would be to change one pixel, and the hash wouldn’t match anymore. So I’d hope a real detector would be more sophisticated.

“A Clockwork Orange”, famously, was set in a post-Cold War setting where the West and Russia had grown close, and the who,s thing was written in a dialect that was part English and part Russian. But I agree with the other poster that in general it’s too much work.
