| foxhound101 07/17/20 2:37:44 PM #8 | Introduce the new cat slowly, and continue to give plenty of attention to your current cats. Keep the kitten in its own room for at least a week. --- |

| Topic | I just realized Sony hasn't released an InFamous 1+2 remaster yet |
| foxhound101 07/13/20 4:36:21 PM #2 | It would be neat to get a remaster. I really liked InFamous when it first came out. --- |

| foxhound101 07/10/20 4:29:14 PM #43 | I'm in the middle of the game playing it for the first time too! I'm probably about 70% done. I'm having a blast with it and it beat my nonexistant expectations. The bow is super fun to use. BURN TO THE GROUND. BURN EVERYTHING. BURN BURN BURN, BURN TO THE GROUND. --- |

| Topic | gallup poll shows 91% of republicans still love Trump |
| foxhound101 07/07/20 2:27:05 PM #27 | The president should be elected by popular vote. If you are concerned with the smaller states having unfair representation that is what the senate is for where the smaller states have greater representation (compared to population) than the larger states. Also some weird things can happen with the current system. Only swing states matter in the presidential election due to the winner takes all approach where a 55/45 victory is treated the same as a 90/10 victory. Here's a map of US with state sizes based on the number of campaign events in 2012. This is how the candidates view the relevant voters (and their issues). Notice that 38 states are missing altogether: https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/sites/default/files/2012-state-size-by-campaign-events-v4-biglabels-small.png Similarly, in 2016, almost all campaign events (94%) were in the 12 states where Trumps support was between 43% and 51%. Two-thirds of the events (273 of 399) were in just 6 states (OH, FL, VA, NC, PA, MI). https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/sites/default/files/campaign-map-2016.png https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/written-explanation --- |
| Topic | Just finished my rewatch of Avatar. (BlogFAQs review/thoughts on the series) |
| foxhound101 06/30/20 10:13:33 PM #14 | We'll see lol. It'll take at least a couple more weeks before I finish the show. Maybe my opinion on S3 and Zuko will change after watching everything in order. I'm pretty sure years ago I thought it would have been better for him to redeem himself on the last episode of S2. He made his choice and him failing to become a good guy would have been more interesting to me. Or at least for someone else to teach Aang, even if Zuko did eventually want to help them. --- |
| Topic | Just finished my rewatch of Avatar. (BlogFAQs review/thoughts on the series) |
| foxhound101 06/30/20 8:30:05 PM #10 | I'm also in the process of re-watching the show. It's still my favorite anime/cartoon. I'm about half way through season 2. I'm curious to see if my opinion of 2 > 1 > 3 stands. One thing I never liked was Zuko becoming the firebending teacher after the decision he made at the end of S2. --- |

| foxhound101 06/29/20 4:36:17 PM #29 | The first three were decent movies. Can't remember if the fourth or fifth were any good. The last book I read was the fifth one, and so I never had any interest in watching any of the movies after that point. --- |

| foxhound101 06/25/20 1:27:20 AM #32 | Years ago my boyfriend somehow stumbled upon Stranger by the Lake which was on Netflix. And...that was totally porn lol. His roommate came home and awkwardly watched it with us, with our explanation of "it's on netflix...it can't be porn!" Also that movie that the such a terrible plot/love interest. --- |

| foxhound101 06/22/20 1:39:04 PM #92 | This is one of the areas that Arizona does an amazing job at. We do two things that should be standard everywhere: 1) Offer mail in ballots to all registered voters (I've never had to go to a polling office. Why would I want to stand in line for 15-480 minutes?) 2) An independent commission draws the district boundaries to avoid gerrymandering --- |

| Topic | Walmart is considering removing cashiers from all of its stores |
| foxhound101 06/16/20 2:55:15 PM #25 | I never use the self checkout at any store. I always go to the cashier to support them, so that I don't have to deal with the machine, and so that they can bag things for me. Especially because I use reusable bags, and that'd just add one more thing for the machine to complain about. --- |
| Topic | GGOA Plays: Resident Evil 4 |
| foxhound101 06/14/20 2:33:00 PM #258 | RE4 is one of the few games that I played twice in a row, and like you did professional mode afterwards. I tend to like professional until the island and then it becomes tedious. I'm not sure if that is because I'm playing the game twice in a row, or if the island is just...unfun on professional. Krauser and the enemies just have too much health, and the island itself is by far the weakest part of the game. --- |

| foxhound101 06/09/20 12:55:45 PM #41 | No! Abyss is the only game where I kept hoping half of the main characters would leave the party, or die. Majority of the characters were awful and annoying. I liked Jade and Guy, but the rest were either meh or awful. --- |

| foxhound101 06/07/20 3:22:17 PM #9 | I remember enjoying the game when I played it (years after it came out), and thinking it was a quality game. But I also remember thinking it was just a bit too long. --- |

| foxhound101 06/06/20 10:27:09 AM #19 | Most cats aren't that destructive. Just get a few scratching posts and you'll be good to go. If you're thinking it'll be necessary or even a good idea to keep the pet locked up then a cat is not for you. --- |

| Topic | Command & Conquer and Red Alert Remastered |
| foxhound101 06/01/20 9:17:06 PM #1 | If you weren't aware (I wasn't) a remaster of C&C and Red Alert is coming out in a few days. The trailer is impressive and shows that they put a lot of effort into remaking the games. The Command & Conquer Remastered Collection will be available June 5 worldwide on PC. Comprised of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Command & Conquer: Red Alert and their three expansion packs - Covert Ops, Counterstrike and The Aftermath - the Command & Conquer Remastered Collection is a passion project between EA, some of the original Westwood Studios team members at Petroglyph, and Lemon Sky Studios. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1213210/Command__Conquer_Remastered_Collection/ I wonder if they kept the wall glitch/cheat from C&C. As a kid I abused that method to beat the game. Not only was it super helpful, but it was amusing to use sandbag walls to prevent the enemy from attacking lol. --- |
| Topic | Resident Evil 4 - Free Rocket Launcher |
| foxhound101 05/27/20 9:15:48 PM #3 | I've only ever used it on Salazar's right hand man. He takes up a lot of ammo to fight normally, and I feel like you fight him relatively soon to that point. Never bothered to use it on anyone else. --- |
| Topic | The Silent Hill 3 Playthrough thread.... (spoilers) |
| foxhound101 05/26/20 2:35:39 PM #81 | It's been a looooong time since I played the game, but I also remember the subway and sewer areas being the worst part. The subway because it was never exactly clear what you need to do to not die in that part. I remember the sewer map being incredibly easy to miss. That area isn't that bad with a map, terrible without it. --- |

| Topic | Xenoblade Chronicles X is what Xenoblade Chronicles failed to be |
| foxhound101 05/22/20 12:54:25 PM #9 | I loved Xeloblade Chronicles when I played it for the first time a few years ago. The characters were so charming, and the gameplay was fun. Heropon Rikki needs his own game! I didn't enjoy X as much. My biggest problem with it was probably the unnecessary requirements to advance the plot. I seem to recall needing to complete a certain amount of quests, and needing to collect a certain amount of random items before you could start the next chapter. And it just wasn't fun randomly wandering for hours hoping to collect whatever items. The game wasn't as charming so my motivation to keep going eventually dropped. --- |
| Topic | I know I'm waayyy late to the party, but how is Starcraft 2? |
| foxhound101 05/21/20 8:15:21 PM #39 | The campaign is a lot of fun. The game was released in 3 "Parts" but each sequel/expansion/part is a fully developed campaign. The campaings are great for the gameplay. The story...not so much. But the game itself is a ton of fun. --- |

| foxhound101 05/15/20 12:04:18 PM #11 | It would be better to raise the menu prices, but replacing the menus could also be a cost the restaurant may not want to incur. Which if that happens the restaurant needs to be very clear about the extra fee. --- |

| foxhound101 05/13/20 4:56:05 PM #8 | You can never go wrong learning SQL, or at least basic SQL with a focus on searching a database. It can potentially be used in IT, and even non IT jobs. I have no idea how someone actually becomes a DBA however. That's one of the fields were it seems like to be a DBA, you must already be a DBA. You're just born as one lol. --- |

Although I didn't get to enjoy the "college life", I did get to save a ton of money between CC and living at home. It was definitely worth it because I didn't have any debt when I graduated. --- |
