This is fantastic. I need a new car but wasn’t in as position to buy a Bolt when they were available. I can hang on for another year or so until the new EUV.

The Bolt was discontinued after the 2023 model. But hey you can buy a new EV Chevy Equinox now starting at $55k >_>

I’m fortunate enough to live near a river with a loop that makes it a perfect lazy river, so that’s pretty much my summer.

Remember what the Conservatives have done at a provincial level, and think of the damage they will cause if federally elected. They’re shutting down the science center and selling the land to a private company to build a spa, trying to sell off the green belt, cancelling the cap and trade program, and failing to provide consumer EV incentives like other provinces.

I mean, it won anime of the year in 2023, and best English VA performance too. The story is flat out phenomenal. You’re doing yourself a disservice by not giving it a fair chance.

All Sony had to do was make account linking optional and give a cosmetic to those who linked, and there would have been zero issues.

Ear plugs and an air horn would probably do the trick.

We switched to all Dell laptops at the start of the pandemic and we’re seeing like a 40% hardware failure rate now 3 years later, conveniently right after the warranty term ran out.

I think this can go either way. Some actors have done a lot of voice work and it shows, and others have a much more wooden performance than what you’d get from them if they were on a movie or tv show instead. Peter Dinklage voiced Ghost in Destiny 2 and was so poorly received that Bungie hired Nolan North to rerecord all the existing lines and voice the character going forward.

I grew up watching Dragon Ball. It was my first introduction to anime and helped shape my childhood. Rest in peace Toriyama, your work touched many lives and you’ll be missed.

I bought so many games on sale after I got my first grown-up job, that just ended up sitting in my library while I played the same 3 games. I bought a Steam Deck 6 months ago and it’s been great for clearing out my backlog. I love being able to play games sitting in the recliner instead of at a desk.

I started with Jerboa for a few months but I think I’ve settled in Connect now. If I had to pick between Jerboa and Boost though I’d pick Jerboa.

Thanks for that, I found some great looking shows to watch.

There’s a locally run thrift store in my small town that I donate everything to. I get shirts and pants for a couple bucks and rarely pay more than 50 cents for a book.

It’s around $1700 for a one bedroom where I am. $1359 for a two bedroom sounds like a dream.

How about banning corporations from owning single family homes or thousands of condo units? I bet that would go a long way towards solving the housing crisis. I used to live in a 200 unit condo complex and the majority of units were owned by 3 people who used that majority to push through whatever they wanted on the condo board. An absolutely massive tax on housing you don’t actually live in would help make housing more accessible. Housing shouldn’t be an investment. Nationalize it.

It’s a top-scrolling shooter, but give Tyrian 2000 a go. It’s free on GOG.

The episode where Frieren talks about mana suppression she mentions doing mana exercises, and after 1000 years that’s why she has so much. Fern has been training the same way for like 20 years now so she probably has a pretty huge mana pool compared to the average mage. She also only uses basic attack and defense magic, so she’s almost like a demon in that she’s mastered a single specific talent. In this case that talent is rapid firing dozens of basic attack spells at once.

Pretty sure the webs are formulated to dissolve in a couple hours.

I’d take perfect aim when throwing something. You always hit the garbage can, you’re unstoppable playing darts. You never miss flinging a playing card at your friends.
