I think I’ve played it through more than 20 times. I roughly do it once a year… 1,2 and 3 at least. It’s no longer about the challenge, story or puzzles, it just feels like coming home.

It’s not a rare thing, but having a character that has been gone or away surprisingly turn up and finish another characters sentence.
When done right it’s just such a powerful move, which often spark a strong reaction from the viewers.
Damn, that’s infuriatingly sad and scary.
How would a nationless world work?
I don’t know if it’s still a feature but I used to get phone notifications every time a friend put a song on.
I don’t recommend this.
Surprised I haven’t seen I Takes Two here yet - it’s a tour de force of genres.
If you never played this game and want a close to perfect coop experience, you should definitely give this a try. It’s perfect for a session with your SO, and it doesn’t rely on neither massive skill nor gaming experience.
I loved every bit of the journey that me and my wife was on with It Takes Two.
The Room - not a good movie but I did enjoy it.
I thought it was $3/min 🤷🏽♂️
So once a year there is a bonus pool at around $10.000 which everyone can apply for if you think you have the arguments to convince the bosses.
So one of my coworkers applied but instead of just emailing the boss, she emailed everyone. This was an email mentioning how much better she was than most of the department, and then throwing a few coworkers under the bus, to make her look better.
It’s been a few years. She’s still there. She actually got the bonus. 🤷🏽♂️

It’s basically explained in these three sections:
“In particular, the justices will be examining a so-called safety valve provision that is meant to spare low-level, nonviolent drug dealers who agree to plead guilty and cooperate with prosecutors from having to face often longer mandatory sentences.”
“The provision lists three criteria for allowing judges to forgo a mandatory minimum sentence that basically look to the severity of prior crimes. Congress did not make it easy by writing the section in the negative so that a judge can exercise discretion in sentencing if a defendant “does not have” three sorts of criminal history.”
“The question is how to determine eligibility for the safety valve — whether any of the conditions is enough to disqualify someone or whether it takes all three to be ineligible.”
Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a looong time…
Made me think of the time the PlayStation 2 launched and there were fear about how the indescribable great power of the new wonder could be used as a weapon in the hands of the wrong people.
Now these two features is in paint, designers and artists will have a hard time deciding which software to use.
This is great - it will get people to talk about something they like. I love that - and I always try to stay curious when people are talking, poke them with whys and hows to really get them talking.
Sometimes the easy thing is to ask a question out of politeness, then not really listen and just wait to get to talk yourself. But focusing on active listening and understanding will bring you much deeper in a conversation and the person you’re talking to.
I’m smart enough to know, that there are loads of smarter people than me, and a lot of them are worth listening to, and by doing that, I’ve become pretty smart myself.
I used to work in IT forensics - there’s nothing that will ever be worse than the things I saw there. People are freaking scary.
But outside work I’ve seen my part of shit, puke and other strange fetish videos, and people being blown up or driven down - being on the internet in the early days sort of made you numb to those things.
I will say that I saw a paper cut fetish video once. That shit hurt through the monitor.
