Playing Colin McRay rally on linux with wiimote + wheel frame as a controller was the best time I’ve had with rally games. Both game and controller worked better than I expected and was easy setup for living room couch.
Old crap now, but later sequels nor Dirt didn’t give the same feel.
Unfortunately, I think you need a passport number to be able to even book an international flight.
Not like they will spend $$$$ getting to another country to be denied at the border.
Unless they drive, I guess. I feel like it’s “easy” to get into Mexico, and would probably be impossible to get home again.
Or, and hear me out, just the REAL magic words that replace the driver’s license and get you that sweet secret government trust fund bullion. I’ll take that worthless paper stuff upfront.
It’s a regular U.S. passport, right? Went through hell? You bring a couple of identifying documents to the post office, they take your picture and you give them money. If you expedite it, it’s super expensive. That’s pretty much it.
Depends. Was their fringe on the flag at the post office where you contracted? Admiralty law can be confusing, but I hope you paid with a bill of exchange. Did you capitalize all the letters of your name? That is your corporate shell entity not you. Perhaps we should talk this through to be sure you properly utilized negative averment and truth language. This all assumes you’ve already issued your UCC-1 statement of course.
So I had to look this one up, and admittedly my patience for these rabbit holes peters out, but yes, it’s most likely a regular passport.
I guess they do some SovCit shenanigans while applying and they think it makes it a super-secret diplomatic and sales-tax immunity passport that will 100% for sure you guys show up when it’s scanned, especially when you wave it in front Darlene at Walmart who defintely has time for your bullshit. It’s all been reinforced by the fact that different batches of land-transit passport cards will come with different numbers of asterisks towards the top, so they think there’s a magic code there that is related to status and privileges.
I’m guessing they had to keep dialing back the crazy until the State Department was finally willing to process their application, and surprise surprise, our SovCit friend found that process onerous.
i am a diehard for old school SEGA sprite-scaling racers. OutRun, OutRunners, Super Hang-On, GP Rider, and Power Drift are all must-plays. they all run great in MAME and have also had a number of high-quality console ports. later polygonal titles like SEGA Rally and Hang-On GP are also great but will be less impactful if you're already used to modern racing games
i see a few comments mentioning different F-Zero games and would like to throw F-Zero 99's hat into the ring. the sheer chaos of that game is really something you have to experience for yourself
That poor bastard has no idea what he’s trusting humans for, and he’s about to find out what a lifelong addiction to chemically-engineered trash feels like. 🥲😭
Poor little bastard. An unwitting descendent of ancient cats’ interest in having humans wait on them hand & foot… Now, cursed with having humans give them everything humans think cats want. 👀🤣
One of mine is obsessed with bread. She can smell it the second we get back from the grocery store. She was born with an addiction to processed white bread and only a closed door can protect it from her.
This is dumb because it’s making it out to seem like there are Super Distro Wars and not just folks calling out bad decision makers like Ubuntu and Manjaro, and non-free-as-in-beer distros like Zorin and Elementary
I’m pretty sure outside of those two categories nobody really cares
I gotta be honest, my bf or I still make sure the cart goes back every time we shop, but I increasingly question whether I should bother. These grocery stores keep raising their prices well above inflation so they can pocket the rest and brag to shareholders about it, at the cost of people who actually shop there.
It’s tempting to say that if they’re going to play that game, they get no courtesy from me as a customer and can hire more cart collectors. It’s miniscule on an individual level, but it is unpaid labor.
There’s the argument that unreturned carts mostly inconvenience other customers, but honestly if the store is exploiting both customers’ goodwill and wallets, I think it’s fine to make the experience at that store just that little bit worse; maybe that last little push will encourage people to shop elsewhere (where it’s an option of course, i.e. not a small town).
I don’t feel this urge at stores like H Mart even though they have so many fewer return stalls and it’s often a longer walk to do so.
I guess this is kind of an antithesis to Shopping Cart Theory I’ve been developing in my head over the past little while. It’s conditional on the store itself being overtly greedy, but I think there might be something to it.
Nah this is just trying to rationalize being a dick to your fellow human being who’s trying to park. The employee making min wage isn’t caring that the carts are further, it just means they can waste more time per trip.
If you actually wanted to do something against the corporation, you shop somewhere else.
You know, you can find the unjust bombardment of the Gaza Strip (and now also the West Bank unfortunately) wrong, and not compare it to the Holocaust at the same time?
Putting together the bombing, indiscriminate killing of civilians near the aid centers, and blocking aid convoys to restrict calories available in the “humanitarian” areas, paints a pretty good picture. The only thing they haven’t copied from Nazi Germany yet is camps with ovens.
You are entering the vicinity of an area adjacent to a location. The kind of place where there might be a monster, or some kind of weird mirror. These are just examples; it could also be something much better. Prepare to enter The Scary Door.
