Have you ever magnetically levitated a cow? If not, then however magnetic they are, it’s less magnetic than frogs.

She’s hot, but there’s just too much pressure to make it work.

Citation? All I can find is that they ended mandates in April 2021, but nothing about a ban.

I wanted to come in here and say something like “maybe a Mrs. Renault said that a few times” but then Louis Renault turns out to apparently be a gigantic piece of shit human, so maybe not.

This article should be Exhibit A in any class on “correlation does not imply causation.”

1. Gambling was made more accessible in the US because of a SCOTUS case in 2018. Starting later that year, Delaware became the 2nd state to allow sports betting (after Nevada). The list of states allowing access to online sports betting keeps growing, with Missouri the latest to join less than 3 months ago. 39 states now have gambling in some form, with 7 more considering legislation in the next year or two.

2. Gaming revenue took off in 2020-2021 because more people were spending all day at home. It has since flattened, or slightly declined as a) pandemic-era games that were written and designed in those tough circumstances turned out poorly. b) gaming company execs thought the gravy train would never end, so set projections too high. c) acquisitions and mergers due to a combination of a) and b) meant massive layoffs and low-effort slop. d) VCs bought up the shells of former successes and accelerated c). Oh look:

A new report by Epyllion, a gaming industry advisory company headed by venture capitalist and market guru

These two things have nothing to do with one another, besides coincidentally happening at roughly the same time.

Not a historian, nor a mathematician, so this is all subject to correction:

In the 6x12.7 configuration, the F4U can deliver something in the neighborhood of 91 megajoules of energy per minute, through with a small magazine, it’s limited to about 22MJ total.

The single GAU-8 clocks in at around 780MJ/minute (8.5x) and 230MJ total (10.5x).

Wreckfest 2 is in early access, if that counts as upcoming. Same developer as Flatout 2, so it should feel similar, just more modern.

Wait until you see the page that redacted the word “don’t”. As in, “Don T.” Why would that be a term they targeted??

Remember a few years back when all new companies were just normal words with (all/most of) the vowels removed?

It’s all fads. Creativity requires more risk than the current environment is willing to accept. So you just do whatever everyone else is doing and call it revolutionary anyway.

Up through 2020 is at the archive, and this guy uploaded that latest version to github as well.

Edit: through 2020 is at the archive as zip downloads. 2021 through 2024 is available as their normal wayback archive for browsing.

And they always include the newest year, just in case a 5-week-old is using the website.

They’re never gonna financially recover from this.

The original Japanese release of The Legend of Zelda was February 21, 1986, making it 40 in just under three weeks.

North American and European releases were in the summer and fall of 1987, though.

Would you eat them in a box?
Would you eat them with a fox?

I did a pretty extreme weight loss a few years back, and in two months, I lost 20 pounds.

Even that was a bit more than is recommended without strict medical supervision. Two pounds per week is kind of the upper bound of “normal” weight loss. Don’t attempt more without a very, very good reason, and an even better doctor.

Whatever I would do, I most certainly wouldn’t post it on the internet.

You can’t attach it to the floor, but can you use some good double-sided tape or super glue to attach some steel weights to the underside of the corners?

Any home improvement store should have some flat bar. 1/8" or about 3mm should be flat enough to avoid a tripping hazard, but check local regs for commercial properties.
