That seems to be correct!

The original announcement was on their Facebook page, and links to https://www.getyourfuckingmoneyback.com/

Note that they didn’t raise their own prices (they absorbed 100% of the tariffs on products they make), so if you bought directly from them or through their Amazon listing, you didn’t overpay and don’t need a refund. If you bought from a retailer like Wal-Mart or Target, they’ll start by refunding people who have a receipt, and then if there is money left over they’ll try to refund anyone else who thinks they overpaid.

I read your comment, thought “Am I dealing with one?” and had to reach into my shirt to check if it had one or not. It turns out it does! So… I guess so. I’m irregular in other ways, though, so I might not be a good point of comparison.

Am I the only one who’s pro-tipping? I feel the need to apologize for making people do work. If you told me I wasn’t allowed to tip I’d be leaving cash on the counter and running off.

Okay, I’m gonna ask: why is reddit not social media?

I’m going to be honest, the number one way to get a good rating from me is to put a giant monster in your movie and have it fight other giant monsters OR a giant robot.

My number one complaint about movies with kaiju and/or mecha, which can prevent them from getting five stars, is that there are usually too many scenes with people talking and advancing the plot, and not enough scenes of wanton destruction where the kaiju/mecha are brawling.

So for those of us who don’t speak this language, what’s the trick to being quiet without seeming angry?

Me not that kind of orc!

If you can’t discuss “topics related to sexual orientation or gender identity” are they also planning to eliminate psychology, anthropology, sociology…? It seems difficult to engage in any discipline that studies humans without talking about those things.

That makes sense. I figured they were worried that an alternate OS would be more likely to exploit their encryption somehow, but if it’s all using industry standard hardware then it really ought to be open.

According to the linked article it prevents the use of Samsung Pay and access to the Secure Folder (an extra layer of security you can enable that requires a second PIN to be input before you can access certain apps and files). This seems pretty reasonable, the goal is clearly to prevent access to especially sensitive data if someone has stolen the phone.

Don’t recall discovering anything, but maybe I did and then forgot it because my memory is terrible. I think I mostly just liked having someone to talk to.

AD&D 2e has, primarily, a presentation problem. The rules are best suited for a gritty game about the minutiae of exploring uncharted wilderness and delving into the dungeons you find there—one where you keep a watchful eye on your dwindling supplies of lamp oil and arrows as you calculate how to bring as much loot out of the dungeon as possible before getting killed by running into a particularly lucky orc. The rules are very similar to AD&D 1e, which is presented this way.

At some point, someone at TSR must have decided that heroic adventure sells better, because all of the 2e fluff and art makes it look like you play as heroic badasses who stare down dragons, which if you start at level 1 and play by the XP rules, will take you many months of weekly play to achieve.

It lies in your favor, though. On difficulties below the highest, the modern games have hidden modifiers that affect the hit chance that you can’t see, but all of them are cheating for you. IIRC your hit chance secretly increases when you have missed shots recently, when you have dead soldiers, when you are outnumbered, and maybe some other things.

This is why you always put a point in Discord.

No, this is the first time it has been available to the public. It was acquired by Riot Games several years into development, they decided to scrap most of the original work and start over in a new game engine, work on the new engine severely delayed reimplementation of previously completed features, which kept pushing the release timeline back, and eventually Riot canned the project.

Last year the original founder purchased the rights to the game from Riot, they went back to the original engine, and they got a working early access build out in like six months.

At my last job it was just the HR interview and an interview with my prospective boss, but my boss’ idea of an interview was to make me take a lengthy, ridiculous test he designed himself that was mostly questions he could have just asked me, including a bunch of weird lateral thinking questions cribbed from “This Google interview question will stump you” clickbait, plus intentional interruptions during the test to see how I handled the unexpected.

I felt kind of insulted by it but I’m glad I stuck it out, because he turned out to be a great boss, who just happens to have strange ideas about interviewing.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said he voted against the reauthorization “because it failed to include the most important requirement to protect Americans’ civil rights: that law enforcement get a warrant before targeting a US citizen.”
