You misspelled “then”.

You know, literally minutes after I posted I thought to myself “maybe I should change it to the hip” but decided against it because hey, it’s Rush. But I agree, your choice is a good one.

Huh. TIL.

Argentina: Soda Stereo - De Musica Ligera.

Canada: Rush - Tom Sawyer.

Goes to show how low the bar is that the ADL failed to meet.

Primitive Technology.

You mean lines that some wall street asshole does off a sheet.

I have xnayed 737-8 Max planes since the first set of crashes. It wasn’t just a single red flag, it was a whole parade. After this year, I think I’ll also add any Boeing plane manufactured in the past 10 years, which effectively limits the choice to older 777 and 737 models. But even then I’d rather fly Airbus or Embraer.

As a side note, the seats in older planes are much more comfortable too. Newer ones have hardly any padding.

CIV:BE sort of scratches the SMAC itch.

Is that why cities are full of rats? Because of heartless bastards that no longer need theirs?

… yet.

You misspelled hamberders.

I found the netrunner jobs more entertaining and rewarding. Gangs are tough initially, once you get better weapons you go through them like a hot knife through butter.

SNES version is very linear by comparison. Do a task, find the key, get to the next area, rinse repeat.

AKA you’ll be removed from the voter pool of you wear it.

What this actually shows is how much previous governments fucked up and how desperate and angry the Argentine people were that this clown started to look like a good idea. To those with an outside perspective it was always obvious that this would only end badly, but to them it was an “any port in a storm” situation.

Or they work in a regulated industry that requires pseudo-airgapped machines for remote users, e.g. the machine actually interacting with the systems needs to be within the controlled boundary but the company has a presence in multiple locations, so the solution is to have a Citrix server that the users remote into. But because the SSP also has access control requirements at every stage that take a long time to get updated to newest industry standards, the user still needs to have passwords rotated, MFA, and all that kaboodle.

Note that Wasabi has no egress fees, but has a transfer limit - essentially the contract stipulates that your monthly egress will be less than the amount of storage you pay for.

What happens if you have a streak of single term presidents, with no new judges appointed?

I would rather see a lottery system implemented. Every year, the oldest standing percentage of judges gets retired and replaced with randomly picked judges out of a pool that meets certain requirements (these can be debated). No election, no appointment, using an auditable system, and participation is compulsory, with strict restrictions of what activities the judge is allowed to participate in while serving so that they’re discouraged from staying on term too long.

The game takes a while to warm up the plot. It picks up with the Baron quests, and the big emotional parts come out full steam towards the last third of the story.

If you manage to finish it, replay it with different choices. Some of the character reactions can be really endearing, others can be terribly heartbreaking.

Both expansions also have excellent stories, one with a Faustian plot, the other with dark stories in a fairy tale veneer.

I would suggest you try to make it as far as the botchling quest. If you still don’t care for it after that then I’ll concede that it’s not your style of game.
