Really? Anything above Nintendo it has been true for me.

If you plan to DM:

For immersiveness, I recommend miniatures to use on a grid (can be just paper with 1”x1” squares drawn with a pencil). One thing I can say for doing it cheap and quick is to buy a bunch of those small game piece holders (1”x1”) and find monster art online to print, cut, and put in the holders as your minis.

[For example](LLMSIX 24 Pieces Game Card Stand Clear Card Holders Plastic Place Card Display Stand Photo Card Holder DIY Board Games Stand for Business Cards Price Tags Labels Menus Party Favor)

You can get basic rules online for free and you could probably pick up books used.

Aaaaaaaand how much does the state get in tax payer funds/year that is supposed to be used to help with these people and their plight in that state? I’m sure they get humanitarian aid.

Well, yes, but there are also pipe bombs, pressure cooker bombs, mortars, etc. So the context is warranted since bombs can be vague.

I read about the heat issues and thought it was baloney until my phone randomly started to heat up big time the other day while just browsing the web to read articles and use Voyager (my lemmy app). I ended up locking the screen and putting it down to cool down. It hasn’t happened since, but I do hope they figure it out because that was crazy weird!

I liked the series overall.

I’m not sure how I feel about that finale though. It was a bit too predictable.

I can’t tell if they wanted it to end Ahsoka’s story there and cover everything about Baylan and Shin in the books fighting against Sabine and Ahsoka? Then are they going to use the crossover movie to kill off Ezra and Hera? I know The Ghost appeared in the sequels, but it could just be a similar freighter or maybe it’s Zeb or someone else (Carson) piloting it?

Oh, totally. I’m a child of the 80s and remember them fondly. I just thought it would be a funny comment.

Man, some of those ads were the epitome of sex sells!

TIL Brazzers has been in gaming advertising since at least 2002.

Ditto!

Cool, well, HR software can add a filter for his university so apps get auto rejected.

Grifters gonna grift.

Fear will keep the locals in line. Fear of progress!

Ah yes. It was kind of like that! I thought it was pretty cool, I wanted more.

Highlights for me:

Threepio

Ezra fighting like a monk

And give the regional governors direct control over their territories?

Yup. That’s how it goes for sure for many. Not all, but there is a very large segment. They’re used to blocking or pressuring others into mass blocking (e.g., cancelling) others. There’s a time and a place for it, but it also seems to be the norm for anything that doesn’t align with them exactly.

I’m a millennial and we have our own issues, but that is theirs.

I can’t read the article, so not sure if this is all politically motivated or not. If so, I guess I can see their side to not disagreeing - there are moral issues that must be upheld.

Yeah, if what I see in the articles and thumbnails are what he’s rockin’ then what the fuck is the problem?! He’s got a good thing going.

They get kick backs, but they don’t sell that high over MSRP and many people are much more savvy about cost of new/features thanks to Edmunds, Cars dot com, KBB, and dealer incentives to move inventory.

If a dealership is making money on new, you’re not doing your work with car shopping. Most don’t make money from new.

I mean, unless you know something I don’t? My brother in law was in sales for Chevy for a few years so that’s where I get my info from.

I agree, but also had to chuckle at that in order to combat Amazon we need to turn to big box stores. 😂

You mentioned small shops/local too. I don’t want to ignore that!

Ding ding ding.

Dealerships make money on used cars and parts/repairs. New cars are usually a loss for them

Yes, a lot do, but there are also gems in the darkness.
