I used to play Lord of the Rings Online every year in December because they have some neat events. Haven’t done it for a while (lost my install with a hard drive and never reinstalled).

Garbage disposal? They have limited utility, but save you from having to transfer food scraps from the sink to the trash or compost.
The built in ice/water dispenser in the refrigerator is the one that mystifies me.

The isolation may have delayed the impact of covid, but they were hit hard with it when it did get in. They cut off food imports as part of this effort and people were starving. Kim turned down vaccine offers on a couple of occasions, though they may have gotten the Russian vaccine.

I have a question about these dual fuel cars, gas has a shelf life and can mess up your engine if you let it sit for too long. Would this become an issue if you only make short, electric drives in the car?

I have repeatedly felt like taking some emery cloth to my neighbors ring door bell camera, which records me when ever I am in my front yard. There is an expense to replacing cameras and they seem like easy targets, if you go about it right.

I have reusable bags and place the items in them after I scan them. Saves a step.

Interesting. I can legally grow and process enough tobacco for my own needs.

Refined strategy of ceasing to exist?

Tax software solutions with my state included. I can’t use the EZ online file options.

Sounds like the devs enjoy the game as much as everybody else.

Subnautica. Just bopping along, in my cute little submarine.

I used to say ‘the bomb’ until I thought about it a bit. Am I really comparing your slick dance move to nuclear annihilation? How does that work out?

Found deep in the Linux networking code years ago: // this code is too ugly to live, but I don’t have time right now

Souls games just require patience, you can get better. It’s the stupidly complex games I have trouble with. Games like BG3 are like taking freshmen chemistry again. Too much effort trying to figure out whats going on.

The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference.

android character who was a great big guy but had a simple, child-like brain

kind of AI like, when you think about it.

Sounds like a good story. A lot of SF has a forerunner civilization concept, but I can only think of a couple that present anything about their early stages.

If you compressed a 14” pizza into a ball it would probably be about the size of your head, so you should not eat one.
