Conservatives are pro small government and anti regulation only when it suits their agenda.

The coolest thing when you start the DLC is that you realize that this whole thing has just been out there the entire time you’ve been playing and you didn’t know it. Then you finally get there and you can play the entire DLC while the rest of the game keeps going without you.

Also black holes or the Bermuda triangle.

A space is a collection of rooms. So you have a clean list of spaces, then when you click into one of them it shows all the rooms that it contains. Without spaces, every single room is shown in one big list.

Element x still doesn’t have support for spaces. Trying to navigate between rooms just by scrolling through one huge list is a nightmare.

It’s the same argument when discussing why people need a pickup truck as their daily driver for the one time a year they need to haul a trailer or move a couch. When faced with the possibility of switching from a half-ton to a sedan, suddenly everybody needs to carry their refrigerator with them everywhere.

I’d be curious to know the stats of how many driving trips are done in cities vs your washboard example.

It’s good that you’re trying to bring attention to this, but it’s off topic for this community.

I’m a bit torn. On the one hand, Subnautica is one of my favourite games of all time and suffers from not being entirely replayable, so another game in the series should be a no-brainer.

On the other hand, Below Zero was a major disappointment and I’m wondering if Unknown Worlds even understand what made the first game so special.

I should have been more verbose. We as a society (in North America especially but also elsewhere) have suffered through decades of redlining that has resulted in racial and economic divides.

The wealthiest suburbs are being subsidized by the poorest neighbourhoods with all the money being funneled into infrastructure that directly supports car dependency.

In order to participate in society, you are now required to own, maintain and insure your own vehicle(s).

I am suggesting that we’ve been robbed of a way of life where cars are not necessary to survive. Where your kids can hop on their own bikes and safely take themselves to where they need to go without worrying about if they’ll be struck by a car.

I’m talking about active transport not as a hobby for the privileged, but as a normality for all.

People be growing up knowing nothing but absolute car dependency and the infrastructure that comes with it. They cannot fathom any other way of existing.

Black Mesa is a good game with nice graphics, but it does not scratch that nostalgia itch the same way.

All I ask is an e-bike and a path to ride her by.

There’s this weird perception issue that I’ve noticed while driving. A car is able to cover so much distance so quickly that even small delays in time can equal a huge loss in distance.

Not that it really matters though because having to wait 30 seconds for a bicycle just means that you’ve lost 30 seconds. The amount of distance you have to make up is irrelevant, you’re still only 30 seconds behind where you would have been.

And in any case, those same people will get to the parking lot and will circle around for minutes looking for the perfect spot closest to the front doors so they don’t need to waste time walking.

I definitely sobbed at the end. Andrew Prahlow deserves huge credit for his musical score, I can’t even listen to Travelers on its own without somebody cutting onions.

All the conversations at the very end of the game hit me right in the gut every time I read them.

Don’t sleep on this one. This game is a profound masterpiece and I recommend everybody play this without any story spoilers.

For those that aren’t familiar and want to know more, Outer Wilds is a first person space-based mystery and exploration game. You are given free rein to take your space ship to any planet in the solar system. There are no combat encounters and no objective markers. Your immediate goal is set by you and your own curiosity. Depending on your pace you can expect to spend about 20 hours to finish the base game, and then another 10-15 for the DLC.

The big hook that got me to play was knowing that once you have played through this game to completion for the first time, you will never again be able to experience it in the same way. I’ve been chasing that feeling by watching other people do blind playthroughs on youtube and I’ve even forced one of my friends to play it while I watched him. Sort of like Subnautica, where

Insecticides have limited effect on bed bugs. What’s important is catching them early before they get out of control, look out for signs like unusual bite mark patterns on your body when you wake up or small blood stains on your sheets. Check around the corners of your bed and under the mattress for the small dark blotches of fecal matter. If you see a living bug, then there are going to be more of them. It only takes a single pregnant female to begin a rampant infestation.

Wash all of your bedding in hot water and dry on high heat. Buy mattress protectors rated for bed bugs and seal up all beds in the home. Bed bugs can remain dormant for up to a year without food so the cover will need to stay on for at least that long. Anywhere you find evidence of bug activity needs to be hit with diatomaceous earth, this isn’t a nasty chemical insecticide treatment but it works by getting into the small joints of the bugs and immobilizing them. Spray into all corners of the room around the floor and under baseboards. It may be necessary to disassemble the bed frame to make sure all corners can be examined.

To prevent them coming into your home, make sure whenever you are staying at a hotel that you check around the beds for any evidence of activity. All of your belongings must stay off the floor and as far away from the bed as possible. When you get home the first thing you should do is throw all of your clothing into a hot wash cycle. If you live in an apartment building it is possible they will come in through the walls from an adjacent unit so be sure to communicate with your neighbours and landlord; fighting your own infestation while the source is next door will ultimately get you nowhere.

Fighting bed bugs was easily the worst time of my life and if I can save at least one other person from going through the same thing then at least my experience counts for something.

Why exactly do we need an announcement for an upcoming trailer?

I think people know who Ubisoft is, Kotaku.
