Is that a regional setting? Never saw “fewer turns” as an option in my app. Only saw “most environmental” when it takes a shorter router even though it’s slower
Inflation has affected our country very differently in different locales. Change in cost of living is the real metric for what inflation is trying to quantify
The play-by-email mode was broken to the point of uselessness in Civ5 and I don’t think they fixed in it in 6 (you had to have an always-on Windows desktop system running the server, and because the game logic was integrated into the graphics engine you couldn’t run it headless, and then on top of that there was basically no working system to coordinate active DLCs between players so most of the time people couldn’t join even if you did get the damn thing running) so my friends and I tried once and gave up. I would love for 7 to have a robust PBEM system so that we can play together without needing to spend hours a week watching paint dry while everybody else plots their turns, but I’m not holding my breath.

Jesus fuck. You should be able to run a game of Civ as a series of XML files, with the GUI being practically perfunctory. I am disappointed that the game isn’t backwards compatible, much less that you can’t integrate between DLCs.
What is functionally a feature-rich version of Diplomacy shouldn’t be this hard to integrate in Play-by-Post.
They should have it so if one player has DLC, everyone gets to use it in multiplayer. It Takes Two works for players that haven’t even bought the game, and that’s published by EA ffs.

Or just gray-out DLC based options. I don’t even think that’s a big deal at the end of the day. The Total War series manages this just fine, and they’re a much heavier lift in terms of game structure.
2K really are the greediest mfs out there.
Blizzard is greedy, the way they shove “buy me! buy me! buy me!” links into every corner of their interface. But 2k is just sloppy, phoning it in on their catalog of accrued titles with marginal graphics improvements as stand-in for any kind of game play polish.
I’ve never understoof how Bateman became associated with being a cool suave guy. The movie portrays him as a loser despite all the murders. His coworkers make fun of him and he doesn’t even confront them, he’s visibly panicking when the detective questions him, his girlfriend is cheating on him and he knows it, he’s constantly doodling edgy drawings and listening to music instead of working, etc.
Its like people only watched the opening scene and the one in which he murders Allen.
That’s sort of the point. He’s hygienic, nice clothes and hair, makes a lot of money, and very fit but that’s really it. It’s all material success but no moral or emotional success
Of the movie, yes. But I thought that whole “sigma male” fad was for so called alpha male influencers giving their mostly awkward and shy audience an out instead of alpha lone wolf type guys that stay away from social circles out of their own free will and are content on their own, never losing their cool and composed persona. Bateman is anything but that, he’s impulsive, petty, envious, can’t control his emotions, is frustrated when he can’t stand up for himself in conversation and desperately craves the admiration of his peers.

And the business card scene. But yeah, I think a large portion of people didn’t watch the actual movie, and only saw those three clips on youtube (including me).
Honestly one of my favorite things about Lemmy being relatively small/niche. So easy to block the nuisance users and communities and just move on with your life.

Someone actually stole a bunch of cameras but couldn’t offload it and ended up getting caught when he tried to sell it on craigslist. Lol. Apparently the camera units are proprietary in the office shelf.
Eggplants actually did get their name because they look like eggs. But they only look like eggs when they're very small, and it varies by types of eggplant
