Have you watched recent Pixar movies? They seem perfectly fine to me.

I don't know how you could do HGTTG well, because the nonsense narration is pretty much the whole point, and I kind of liked what it was, but it was definitely a letdown still. Zaphod's heads bothered the absolute shit out of me.

I tried with ps4. I can't tolerate the latency.

God damn is the controller an even bigger upgrade than I expected, though. The precision vibration is way better than the switch and the triggers are legit as hell stacked with it. Astro's playroom shows it off really well.

I would look at it as "maybe consider later", but the limited edition look is sexy. I'm not going to actually do it (I basically locked that in by buying a PS5 today) any time soon, even though I didn't regret the upgrade with the switch at all, but it's definitely a tempting upgrade.

I said at the time that I wouldn't have done it. I think the health keeps it from being terrible, but I don't care. I liked the team better with Rob on it.

If you look at the offseason as a whole, Porzingis and Holliday is probably a double upgrade from Smart and Rob. Kristaps has been one of my dream Celtics since before he got beat to shit by injuries, and his game has matured a lot. That move was a home run to me right away.

But man healthy Rob is just so fun to watch.

I think it's a weird autocorrect from people.

I hated moving him. He's fucking electric.

The health is a definite issue though.

They told you the performance target is the same.

It would be silly to expect the performance to be meaningfully different.

I've set my ereaders to roboto thin or roboto light. I haven't been motivated enough to try to change fonts on other platforms.

Meme was coined by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene in 1976, and defined as the equivalent of a gene but for more abstract ideas (because the gene is ultimately just a unit of information as well). I don't remember for sure if religion is specifically an example he personally used, but if it's not it's very comfortably in the same vein.
