Iowa was like "I see your 3rd down interception on a play that wasn't going to materialize and raise you an interception turned touchdown"

Your literacy skills are on show here.

Probably best to leave the Glock at home, friend.

If a trucker is merging into your lane like that, they probably have good reason.
Example:
Two lane interstate/highway, approaching an on ramp with vehicles attempting to merge in.
Trucker moves over into your lane to let them in.
And then there's you, side-by-side with a multi-ton cargo machine because...why?
Lack of situational awareness? Did the off ramp not clue you in to the fact that an on ramp is approaching and that there may be other vehicles looking to merge in and that the trucker may need to move over to let them in?
Maybe you (and probably the 3+ cars ahead of you) thought they could all over take the semi and merging traffic all at once instead of leaving room for the trucker to move over if needed?

TL;DR you're probably the dumb ass.

I love this because Larian got wise to my shenanigans since the pre-release. I didn't think there was an easy way to keep her from retreating to her basement anymore

In the pre-release daysyou could just corner her or block the entrance to the basement (after a successful perception roll) with your party or the environment and keep her trapped upstairs.
Looks like they have given her...misty step...if I remember correctly, so she'll just slip away into the basement if you're not able to put out enough damage in a single round

You're saying there's such a thing as too much garlic?
Hearsay.

Well, they got the demographic right at least.
I suspect Cletus is probably going to use it to jam/roll back his electricity meter reader or try to interfere with electric vehicle charging stations to "own the libs" rather than attacking grid backbones

I can't tell which side of the argument your response is supposed to fall on...
Yes, people typically listen through their car speakers. Good job. Gold star.
But not all cars have Bluetooth connectivity. There's still a lot of people who drive vehicles that have to rely on 3.5mm connections (either directly, or with cassette or even CD adapters!). Or maybe their car supports Bluetooth audio, but they prefer the higher fidelity audio that a 3.5mm interface provides vs Bluetooth.

Maybe I'm missing something here. But this response holds no water.

When my wife (then girlfriend) was in in school, she moved in with a couple of female roommates. I set up their WiFi and called it "GirlsGoneWireless"

Fuck these dysfunctional, insecure politicians

Funnily enough, I find "Do the right thing" to be even more ambiguous!
Do the right thing by whom? Their shareholders? Well now we're just throwing the problem over the proverbial fence, now aren't we?
"We're not evil! We're doing the right things according to our shareholders!... who just so happen to have evil intentions"

Scrolling through New I've been seeing an influx of posts from bots.
I see what you're doing. You're seeding your communities with content to attract engagement and help grow communities.

At face value, I think that's great! Let's build these communities as big as possible!
But as someone who is on the receiving end of this seeding, it's having the opposite effect and makes the Lemmy experience unappealing. I don't want to see back-to-back-to-back-(repeating) posts to one community while browsing for new content.

Maybe set limits on how frequently your bots post to individual communities? E.x. 1 post/5 mins/community.

What do y'all think? Am I the only one that feels this way?
