Hell yeah, Planetside 2 was outstanding when it was good. Huge scale, really good interactions (q to tag targets was so cool), really fun land and air vehicles

Fuck, I miss that game now. Shame it’s declined!

Oh jeez, that’s incredibly annoying.

Impossible Burgers already exist and are fucking delicious.

But, sure, if I can have pastrami or corned beef again without requiring a cow experience a life full of torment, emit a cow’s lifetime of methane, or have any of that happen where a forest should instead have been left untouched, I’d try it!

Loud music in restaurants People reacting loudly at sports (sudden clapping, yelling, etc) Velvet Leather not letting sweat evaporate Advertising

…do you not?

Fuck him and his insane and dangerous suggestions about medical stuff.

But “ask your doctor about X” ads where X is a prescription-only drug should definitely be banned. Why the fuck would I ask my doctor about a medication if they haven’t already suggested it to me?

I’ve bought a ton of music off bandcamp and qobuz. Definitely not mp3 tho, not when lossless versions are also available

that only works when there are alternatives that work offline. which is not guaranteed.

Stardew Valley! At least on PC it has local split-screen co-op

My first job was washing dishes in a restaurant half a decade before the iPhone released, so yes

I believe Pizza Hut had online ordering at the time, but via their website amd the drivers probably all worked directly for the individual Pizza Huts

an arm and a lag

What about the technology that runs food delivery services do you find so compelling? I don’t see what’s so special about any of it.

I’d rather they were destroyed, but practically speaking that’s impossible, and this sounds like the next best idea to me.

browsing menus you know are up to date

A quick web search shows plenty of anecdotes to the contrary.

being able to specify allergies as much as you want

And you trust that?? If I had a serious food allergy I would absolutely NOT trust that a food delivery service would communicate those effectively given how much they push restaurants around, up to and including adding restaurants without their knowledge or consent.

I suppose in the strictest sense, sure, these apps are convenient, but you sure are paying a lot for it, and some restaurants charge extra for it on top of the fees, and the delivery folks aren’t getting a fair cut of the fees. Most of the fees go to big tech.

Food ordering apps aren’t convenient as fuck

I agree. Nothing convenient about overpaying to entrust your food to underpaid, unvetted delivery workers

try a Taycan if you ever get a chance! not literally VW but definitely not boring

not a crossover! not even remotely close

There has never been a non-electric Taycan, it has always been a pure battery EV

It’s also not a crossover. Sedan or wagon. And I can say firsthand that the wagon is outstanding

The sugar in the sweet tea is probably far more dangerous than its food-grade packaging

It’s great. Been using it for three or four years now. Never looked back.
