Then shouldn't the owner of the house be the one to make the decision? Not other guests?

I see no one calling for the removal of an existing trigger warning here. No changes to the status quo being requested. I see an asshole being a tool about someone making allusions that there should be a trigger warning.

Sorry to be pedantic. I'm generally supportive of your argument, but confused as shit because it doesn't appear to apply here.

I have experience in an internal IT helpdesk position. All I can say is that you are greatly overestimating the computer competency of the average person.

Your workplace also sounds like an exception in terms of competency.

Also, maybe you should ask the powers that be if they have to assign so damn many. I work in the finance/banking industry. We only have to do an average of two per quarter where I work. Enough that it's somehow possible to be 10 or more behind sounds absolutely soul destroying.

I'm still in awe that the business real estate market is such a big deal that companies are fucking scrambling to kill a worker productivity and morale tool that is effectively free for any company that maintained operations during covid.

I felt like Shadow of Mordor was a decent spiritual successor, and while I haven't played Shadow of War it seems like more of the same. Same combat style as the Arkham games.

The recent Insomniac/Sony Spider-Man games also had a similar combat style.

Man, they're going to be remaking/porting/rereleasing this series forever, aren't they?

Does Ross/Accursed Farms, the person who started this movement, not count?

While this is entertaining and a great story of reverse engineering, I feel it kind of defeats the purpose to cheat to make this work, and the writeup could have been more forthcoming about that aspect. It's stated in a single sentence like some sort of aside, even though it's half of what makes the hacked solution even work.

It's not only a fix for the year rendering code on the results screen that allows this to work, they also reset the starvation value to zero each day the wagon waits at the river.

Given how many games lately are getting similar stories and headlines using exploits that don't require modification of the game code/mechanics, I found this one just a little disappointing in comparison.

Man, someone put a lot of effort into this shitpost of a site.

Hey, the GPU plugin in runelite that adds lighting effects can absolutely EAT GPU power.

What's frustrating to me is that in theory none of the torrents/magnet links should get stuck, as they have archive.org set as a direct download/web source backup. But I've literally never seen that feature fucking work. Ever.

That can be important, if your family is important to you. A long term relationship generally/traditionally carries an expectation of some bare minimum level of relationship with (or at least tolerance of) your SO's family.

That would make an excellent album name
