Pretty sure they're just incredibly sharp. The Japanese like to sharpen things.
Presumably until you get into a car accident or pulled over for any other reason. Then, it's probably off to jail with you. At least I hope.
Nope. And I remember a time when there weren't any ads. Or images for that matter. And I had to run software in DOS. Things are definitely both better and worse, now.
I drove my daughter to ballet class for the glory of the empire!
I highly suspect it comes out the other end shortly after being ingested. Unless there are rules against that or something. Somehow, I feel like the mayo-eating professionals aren't exactly well regulated.
OLGA - the OnLine Guitar Archive.
It was a huge collection of free guitar tablature. Mostly txt files cobbled together by enthusiasts. The first time I used it, it was only an FTP server. It was rough, sure, but it beat the snot out of the ad-riddled, subscription models we have today. There was a version of Time in a Bottle that I learned half of twenty five years ago and I have never managed to find the rest. It drives me crazy because it was a really good version. Someone had put the two guitar parts together to make a better sounding, hard-as-fuck to play single guitar version. Every version on the Internet now is some dumbed down PoS, or the OG that needs two guitars.
I bounced off Crosscode hard. Which sucks because I wanted to love it. The pacing and difficulty were all over the place. And making the puzzle dungeons a race between you and other characters just made me hate them. I want to stop and think! After dying to a particularly nasty boss I was trying to beat as fast as possible so I could maybe eke out a win in the dungeon, I ended up cranking the difficulty all the way down, and was the last out of the dungeon anyway. I put the game down and haven't looked back. That was about 25 hours in, and nothing of consequence had occurred with the plot by then, anyway. I might go back sometime and see if it gets better, but it left me pretty sour.
I love the entire 16 bit era, and JRPGs, and action RPGs, and Crono Trigger, and difficult games, but Crosscode just took all those elements and somehow made them unpalatable to me.
They're not quite as terrible as their reputation. Yeah, they've definitely got some of the worst episodes of Trek ever, but there are good ones in there, too.
That was my thought. I spent the last 48 hours in various airports, and this briefly looked normal to me.
I'm re-watching DS9 for the third time or something, but I've never seen anything released after Voyager except for the Abrams movie travesties. Am I still a Trekkie?
I ordered a "boutique", made-in-Canada guitar pedal off a website here in Korea. I'd ordered a few things from the same place before without issue. This time, the guy jerked me around for two years with all kinds of promises. I called the cops when he stopped communicating and the website disappeared. The police found him, and I got an apology over the phone, and that was it. It hardly seemed worth taking him to small claims court over $300. I ordered it from somewhere else and it showed up in a week.
The Grammys are awards for whoever spent the most money on recording and marketing anyway. They have little to do with any kind of artistic or technical merit or musicianship. Maybe never did.
