This particular emergency response team has a dump truck and a bulldozer though...

But even then, I'd say the most useless dog is the one that does water rescue. They're never near water and Zuma never gets any lines lol

There are some big companies that have loyalty rewards programs and some assign numbers to it, but it's generally like it is here in the west. It's not a government thing.

The government thing is basically just intense accounting. They keep very close track of financial stuff and though it's mostly aimed at businesses, they also note when individuals take out loans or credit cards and that can impact a person's life if they default. People and companies can also be blacklisted for stuff like fraud. But again, that's pretty much the same in the west too.

It's true that there is less anonymity in China though because people have to use their real names for everything. Like on social media, even if a user has a screen name, their legal name is still tied to their account through their phone number or internet connection or associated bank account (you can do online shopping through basically every Chinese app) or all of the above. Westerners nominally have more privacy in that regard but let's be real, if a western government wanted to know who's behind an "anonymous" internet post, they would know.

For tables, you can make things easier for yourself by using only one hyphen in the delimiter. The lines at the start and end of each row are unnecessary too. Like this:

header 1|header 2|header 3
|-|-|-|
info|data|thing
stuff||entry

Also, you can leave squares blank.

The water temple is the only one that I didn't need a walkthrough on. I dunno what kind of person can't finish the water temple but can make it through the rest of the game.

It's just like modding a switch with tin foil

Reciting Das Kapital is what it felt like learning the creed as a kid lol

The US already did that with Afghanistan didn't they? The US froze their central bank reserves and then chose how to spend it for them.

Looks like a video game title screen

That's true, what we need more these days is a word for schoolchildren blasting their classmates or fascists shooting up a church

They're MOTHER 3 goons that work for the main villain. They're cops dressed like stormtrooper pigs and that's all there is to them really.

That last picture looks like Snapchat lol

I agree, there's a lot of people out there that sincerely use dude and guy neutrally. It doesn't come off very well in text but it's cool in person, the vibes are chill. Though I completely understand why a lot of people don't like it.

And this is a tangent, but my understanding of the word "man" is that it originally meant "person" while the words for adult male and adult female were "were" and "wif" respectively. Then "man" started being used in place of "were", which fell out of use. And for some reason "wif" became "wifman" and eventually "woman".

This boat has long since sailed but I think it's interesting that "man" used to be a gender neutralish word (boys were still the implied default I think).
