Don't skip the dialogue, even if you use subtitles and are a fast reader. It sometimes switches from one sentence at a time to whole chunks of dialogue and action getting skipped. Plus, the voice acting is superb, and the physical reactions of characters can convey a lot of emotion.

Apart from White Orchard, you shouldn't need to complete all side quests in your area before moving on. Particularly with witcher gear, it's sometimes expected to need to come back at a later time when you're more powerful.

Others may disagree, but I don't bother dismantling gear and weapons. I find it simpler to just sell things and buy materials I need from vendors.

A lot of things that come with software that people despise would be fine if the software wasn't designed to monetize the fuck out of you.

  • Having a media center built into the TV and being able to control both with a single remote is nice. Having the media center push ads and tell me which applications it's allowed to run sucks donkey balls.
  • IoT devices that depend on someone else's online service can go die in a fire. Programmable devices that work with my own home server are awfully convenient.

The common thread here is not that there's a niche where software hasn't been introduced yet, but that there's a dearth of good software/firmware.

Not an entomologist, but I'm thinking terrestrial flatworm - with the white belly perhaps microplana terrestris?

Two separate ND diagnoses, but yeah I agree this doesn't make it double.

Remember it's the Financial Post. Gotta take things they say with a heaping pile of salt.

Here's a third one: They have a Welcome Stamp visa program where you can work remotely from there for a year, and it's renewable. You can even bring your family. Under this program you only pay income tax on your country of origin.

If you remove the speeches from Trek, don't you just end up with the kind of content everyone seems to be complaining about in JJ-Trek?

Does your wife wear a sleep mask/would she be willing to wear one? You could then get one of those sunrise alarm clocks that lights up the room before making noise.

If you've ever seen what roosters do to hawks, chickens do do mice or, heck, other weak chickens, then you'd know that they do remember.
