When you’ve been eating boiled chicken and wheat for 10,000 years, a curry is like a handjob for your tastebuds

TIL I am an extreme outlier.

For sure

Wow

I really, really tried to like Ancestors: The Humankind Oddysee.

Playing as an ape, swinging from trees, eating fruits and mating. It was a lot of fun.

But there are mandatory mechanics that drag it down. You have to discover everything to progress, and you have to bring your kids and tribe along manually. The cost of failing in combat is too high. You can grind for two hours to learn your area, and then lose your best ape and 2 kids to a panther with one second of quicktime events that you haven’t trained for.

Building fortifications is very laborious and I couldn’t find a good reason for it.

Training the clan to build weapons eluded me.

The exploration was amazing though, and if it was less grindy, more forgiving in combat (especially with more opportunities to practice, I mean, why not allow apes to initiate play fighting with each other where you could master the quicktime bullshit without such high risk) and a more independent tribe behaviour where they advance without having to be led manually, it could be a great game.

Maybe Ukraine should have invaded Iran then!

Think-pad? Pshh, a momentary gimmick.

(My very first laptop was a ThinkPad with 256mb of RAM, 100 years ago)

But you can edit text with it.

I actually prefer micro

Are we calling this whole situation in the middle east and Europa a world war yet?

US is doing an evil playthrough.

Thank you for your service in working minimum effort at a giant corpo

$6 dollarydoos for fucking timtams?!

Especially if you work there.

It will probably be wifi and mqtt. You don’t need a whole OS to get mqtt, just a TCP/IP stack.

Possibly it will use BTLE or BT5. If the store is large enough it might make sense for staff to go around with android app and manually update some prices, in which case BT5 in SPP mode might make sense.

It’s weird, the higher the prices get, the worse my memory and aptitude with self service checkouts gets.
