Most Wanted is the GOAT simply for the soundtrack. Bullet For My Valentine and Avenged Sevenfold practically defined my music taste for the rest of my life.

Not to belittle Stardew, a game I adore, but Stardew is itself very much cribbed, as a desperately needed spiritual successor to the Harvest Moon/Rune Factory games. I don’t intend on checking out fields of mistria so I’ll just take your word on the rest.
I, and then every junior I’ve onboarded as well, struggled to grasp just how important the naming conventions are for everything to just work. Models and tables must be named a certain way or you’ll be scratching your head. Model policies must be named a certain way. On and on. You can override all those, of course, but it’s just another gotcha.
If you want to use PHP, and you want to be productive, there’s no other choice in my opinion. I will say, the brain behind it is quite opinionated and most of those opinions are correct. If you don’t agree with those opinions, you will probably find yourself hating it and fighting the Laravel Magic. Give in to the magic and get shit done.
The constant tutorials can be overwhelming, yeah. Just know, the game is (usually) many layers, and you can still have a blast ignoring the basic tutorials and just turning your brain off and smashing stuff, or you can focus up and hit the lab to really refine how you use a particular weapon or practice strategies against a specific monster, kinda like a fighting game.
Yeah I agree, this is bullshit. I’m probably in the minority but I take “vote with your wallet” seriously and I’ve just kept my sub going since I started playing in like 2018? Even the months that go by that I don’t play, I feel I’m getting some value by keeping their team cooking.
Meanwhile WoW is getting roasted for its latest grift. I guess that’s stacking value, just not for the players.
When I worked retail, I never asked for phone or address or anything. If they volunteered it, I’d do it, but I never asked. Management talked to me about it several times and I just kept not doing it. I think they kept me on in busy times because I could blast through any line of customers faster than anyone else (I wonder why 🤔)
It’s not a fucking reveal, Kagi tells you exactly what engines they include in their results.
Whole heartedly, FDM is laughably worse at the hobby/consumer level. I sold my Ender 3 because it was just a pain in the ass, intending on never 3D printing again.
A coworker mentioned the Elegoo Mars 4K being so cheap so I gave it a shot. I’ve printed so much with it, and I have literally never had a problem once I dialed in my exposure time with the resin I like. I don’t even fuss with how long the resin has sat idle. Months can go by between prints and I don’t even bother stirring it. It just cranks things out like a magician.
Everyone who can set up adequate ventilation and buy thick rubber gloves: get a resin printer and never look back.
I’ve been here for every hurricane in the last 30+ years and this is the first one I’ve been alerted for tornadoes in my area, and the first time anyone I know has even seen one.
Like I said, I’m not downplaying this shit, but historically when you’re talking about hurricanes that affect the entire state, most people are not hit by the tornadoes.
That’s my feeling too, and for Ian it was beneficial that I stayed because I was able to mitigate a leak that certainly would’ve ruined my house if I hadn’t been there.
We’re always in a mandatory evacuation B zone, but we’re several miles inland and our lot is 18ft above sea level, our street never floods. Place is just built different I guess.
Stay safe, friend!

That might’ve been the best year for metalcore 😭
