Now. I can invest it and end up with more in the long run because of the 3-year head start.

Plus Im old.

Damn, that is 71% return per year average to match 5 million in 3 years. Is this risking dumping it in an AI stock and just hoping or something?

Is there some context behind this one? Only thing I saw regarding this game was people getting upset that the PsP version content is not in it.

Makes no sense and fled town? This guy should just admit that Trump is basically telling him he does not matter. Trump will continue doing what he wants unimpeded since nothing outside of a shutdown can stop him due to the power he has accumulated.

Schumer has to go. The Dems need someone who actually understands the current political landscape.

I do not agree with this statement. He fully understands the political landscape. He fully understands what he must do to keep himself winning his bread. He knows how much he must push the beast without engaging him to pretend he is trying.

He does not care about the average man more than he does care about keeping his position. And like many politicians, our people are so complacent and rarely want to vote in change instead of just keeping the same career long politicians. It does happen occasionally with someone like AOC, but the game is rigged where it is hard to get enough interest built in new candidates to give them a chance to primary these career politicians in most cases as long as they have not done something detrimental to their career.

And by the time he does finally get challenged, (possibly in 2028) he will probably be ready to retire anyway.

Who even uses Tylenol anymore?

I have Tylenol in my cabinet or atleast cheaper brand versions of acetaminophen all the time available.

My works first aid containers have acetaminophen in them as well.

I assume the Tylenol report they are trying to frame will be something about acetaminophen in general. Although who knows, maybe they just hate Tylenol and it is specifically them.

Damn that is punishing. Basically have to pay a year salary in fees to get someone international to come work.

hear the performance is shit and the director is losing his mind on twitter when people bitch about it.

I think you mean Gearbox Company CEO Randy Pitchford? Director I think has been more neutral saying they are working on fixes and reviewing community feedback.

Randy is of course, doing very Randy things in response to the launch.

For playing on PS5, I have not seen many issues. (I decided to avoid PC since I would have probably had issues with my current one.)

Menu UI is bad in a lot of spots. Cutscrnes seem to cap at 30 FPS in some instances. And have seen some funny ragdolls happen a handful of times during play.

Overall though, I have been enjoying the game. A few things I would like to see tweaked (example: world bosses disappearing immediately if they knock you out of the bubble or you accidentally step out.), but I think they have a good basis to start with compared to BL3.

Clair Obscur - Yes
Hollow Knight Silksong - Yes
Donkey Kong Bananza - Yes
Metroid Prime 4 - Not Making it
Death Stranding 2 - Yes
Ghost of Yotei - Yes
Silent Hill f - Not Making it

Kingdom Come 2 in place of the 2 getting knocked out and that is what I see as the 6 nominees.

That is my go to password that Google randomly created for me. Or atleast it was something similar to that. Have never been able to log back into my account from forgetting the password myself, so it is obviously really strong.

Ok just took down Widow and there is some seemingly BS RNG that occurs sometimes with bosses attacks overlapping that seem like they just cant be dodged

fighting Sister Splinter 3 times in a row it spawned two of the spinning enemies while it spawned so many vines I couldnt move. So I had to 3 hit the vines to escape but the spinning things would then kill me

Similiarly with Widow she would drop the vertical balls down but then do the diagonal ones at the same time which had no escape. I had to wait for RNG both times for that not to happen to win

For your second comment, I don't believe it possible to do anything about the straight vertical falling ones aside dodge them, but you could hit the diagonal traveling ones away.

The jackpot is $1.8B, this should be after taxes

Incorrect. Lump sum payout is listed as cash value $826.4 million. You then have to take taxes out of that value as the other person said.

Only car I currently drive is my mom's and I still need to put the key in. Not to start it as it does have command start, but it won't drive until the key is actually in. Granted I don't know how old it is.

However I can say that I worked at a car dealership as recently as 8 years ago, and at that point the vast majority of cars still needed keys to drive. It was pretty much just higher end cars that had a button instead.

You are probably right on the timing with 2010 being more the start of high end and then 2015 or so when it started to became more common with push buttons in certain brands.

Can't really say I am interested. My interest in that series crashed and burned with its last story arcs.

Favorite: FFX
Top Tier: FF6, FF7 (Original and remake), FF12, FF9, FFT
Well Liked: FF4, FF5, FF8
Honorable Mention: Mystic Quest

Yes, Mystic Quest is a straight forward, simple RPG, but I can't overlook it for really pushing me into exploring the RPG genre as a kid to find out how much I enjoy the genre.

My keys never leave my pocket as you no longer directly engage a key with a cylinder to turn and move the starter. This is some 15+ year old logic.

The economy news is bad and where we are is certainly messed up. On one hand, we have normal everyday people struggle to find work and provide basics. In the other, we have Tesla trying to come up with a package for Elon Musk to make him a trillionaire.

For $1000, the design of this thing is terrible. I do not like the open floor look they went for at all.

We are trying to build more power, but our AI overlords have not yet figured out how to enter construction to help our labor starving construction industry.

I will probably wait a good while for it when it is on sale and once all the DLC is out.

I thought FF8 was good overall, but the leveling system was stupid. From what I recall, I can either be level 20 with like 6k hp from juctioning and survive 5 or 6 hits from an enemy doing 1k damage a hit. Or I could level to 99 and get to 9999 HP cap but now only survive 2 or 3 hits cause the enemy now hits for 4k an attack from their boosted stats. So most of the player gain was in junctioning while leveling actually buffed enemies more as their stats scale to average party level. (This is just a sample thought from memory of long ago, more so on certsin bosses that did not have a celing cap.)

To be fair, the moment you show up is the drunkest you'll be.

99% of the time this true. But that 1% happens.

A loaded baked potato with a meat such as brisket, chicken, or pulled pork as toppings make this an easy selection for me.

Potato all the way.

can you explain the censorship thing?

Someone no longer flips the bird with their finger and points instead.

I remember Xillia had boss hyperarmors that I generally hated and links were a little wonky, but I enjoyed it overall in comparison to some of the Tales games that came after. Will be interested if this happens to not release around other new releases I want.

Always contribute enough to at least get a full match. Even if it hurts.

Don't leave your retirement on the table.

Doe posted...

Really dislike looking at these numbers. My biweekly 401k contribution is currently $345, my employer matches $115 to that... basically whatever I contribute they match 33% of, there's not a cap like some plans have nor any amount of 1:1 matching

Am I misinterpreting what TC is saying or do people just show up with pre written copypasta statements to post in 401K topics?

Octopath Traveler 2, 90% steal chance. 5 failed attempts later and I am off to the tavern to pay and restore my reputation. :(

I did it with a shovel. Gave me a pretty good black eye when I was a teen.

Was this one of those games that only had a 1 to 2 minute concept teaser trailer produced and shown sometime in the past? I don't recall this game at all.

I wonder what damages a remake more in terms of popularity. Angering the crowd that wants a 1 to 1 remake with just better graphics or angering the crowd/ that wants a full remade game that follows the original game story points.

Also, the second point would also consider potentially new crowds you won't attract that are looking for things with a more modern gaming experience and don't have memories and nostalgia of playing the original.

Add me to the list of people who liked it but did not finish it.

A lot of good ideas and puzzles, but just lost the drive to finish it. Felt it went on a little too long.

Actually 6 empires would be the best game in the series..imo

9 had its problems but its really how the game should be though. It needed to be rethought.

9 is the way maybe for the empire series to be. Forget that open world mess for the main line entries.

Can't watch the vid rn but is he gonna be a player instead of a GM, or is he going to have a different role?

Yea, he is going to be a player.

Looks like a typical Capcom year of having 3 to 4 things slated. Glad to see Onimusha getting a revival chance though.

The only thing worst is the doofus that does not want to enter the exit lane until the last second. Now when they want to enter, the exit lane is backed up. So they want to slowdown or break check a lane that is supposed to keep moving on the highway while trying to get someone to let them in.

Bonus points to the person that does this from the fast lane on the far lane away from the exit last second.

Again, why would you pre-order games? Even physical games are hard to justify a preorder these days.

Everybody doesn't want that preorder bonus that includes a weapon and armor set that are obsolete 10 minutes into the game?

One thing I have heard that I don't like is apparently it is easy to kill certain quest lines by traveling too far into the wrong area first.

Aside from that, it has not been to bad doing the hold hand to left wall method like in a maze to explore. But damn does this game love ganks/surprise attacks. I am paranoid now everytime I enter a room or go to pick up an item now and spin the camera trying to try and find ambushers or long range attackers from odd angles.

One annoying thing about the combat

If you get knocked down mid enemy combo, theres no real quick get up or i-frames and they can just wail on you until you die. Not fun lol

Probably my least favorite thing in the game. It becomes more apparent too when bosses are phase 2 and more aggressive. The roll back from the ground for spacing also does not really seem to have I frames. And that spacing does not seem to do anything with how much ground enemies can do with their attacks in tracking you. Lies of P corrected their ground get up after release, so I hope this game does something as well to fix it some.

(Maybe speed up health recovery drinking as well too.)

I don't think either side truly cares to get rid of the US debt. Unfortunately reducing debt seems to turn more into moving money from something their party does not like and celebrate reducing the debt. Then turn around and add more to the debt dumping money elsewhere for some agenda and pretend it is not adding to the debt.

Trump was already nominated by Pakistan, in case anyone forgot.

Yea, they nominated him last month if I recall. Pretty sure a person from the US foreign affairs department also nominated him early in the year.

K181 posted...

Regular reminder, nominations are meaningless as a huge number of people have nominating abilities. Borderline everyone of note has multiple nominations.

Yea, this is important to note. I think 2025 had over 300 nominations between individuals and nominations.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/netanyahu-nominates-trump-nobel-peace-prize-2025-07-07/

No surprise at who nominated him.

I am not a fan of 5 Guys. The quality of their burger is not worth the price in comparison to the quality of burgers I can get at other places for cheaper.

Yes and I hate it.

I hate answering the question "How do you rate your overall job performance?"

I always want to be sarcastic and type in "Not fired yet, so I guess good" as the response.

My AI overlord said the answer is 1013, so I will just blindly trust that.

I would celebrate even if I made it to the offensive side of the court and got a shot off. I, and am sure many others as well, are not skilled enough in our ball handling and dribble to even advance the ball past NBA players.

Obviously some coal and oil/gas lobbyist are pissed that Solar is cutting into their revenues.

For my last 2 games, the final bosses are pretty much spoilers for the story. So Spoiler vs Spoiler. Spoiler takes it.

BL3 isn't full single player, though.

They were entirely too nerf-happy but it at least had the co-op excuse.

Cyberpunk nerfed things, though some of that was a side-product of the update rather than a targeted patch thing.

Dang, the EXACT opposite of the first one.

Part of the problem in KCD2 is they limited master strikes to only sword now. So of course everyone will go to where the master strike is.

ReaR can't fit on the button so RR. Who needs vowels.

Absolute confirm.

I have seen many people in the construction field divorced because their significant other could no longer take the time away from home while they traveled for work.
