Almost every movie and TV series made in the last few years is garbage, not even worth pirating let alone paying for.

I think the last decent movie I saw was Battle Angel and not much around that.

Last decent TV series was Witcher and that wasn't all that good, barely watched more than a few episodes.

I can't decide if these corporations are trying to stop being reliant on talented people so they can pay them less and replace them easily, or if it's full blown equity hiring going on.

Regardless, thank god for old movies and TV series.

Eh...

I was spending monthly $150 on FFXI subs for a while.

When i was using less chars, the thought were “hey, its 20~30$ a month but it is still way cheaper than any other entertainment option for the same time”.

After a few years, more chars and a terrible money conversion (it was 2: 1$ now its 5: 1$), the cost of playing FFXI starts to become a little intimidating...

Don't ever go near an MMO with a cash shop!

6 accounts with lots of alts I guess? Just need to put limits on it.

I always see it as an decision: whats worth more, cash or time?

When you have lots of time but is low on cash, you can run one account and do all the things slowly (like building millions of gils for HQs, JP grind, lvling etc).

Later on life, you have less time but more cash. Then you can have extra accounts to accelerate your growth N times (being N the number of "slaves" that gonna do most of your job).

At my point, if i need to pay extra 13$ and bypass stuffs like cutting 1/N the time to farm certain amount of gil, or skipping out yells or partying events, then its still a good choice.

It just sucks all the commemorative content from FFXI tend to be time consuming, and all those mini lottos really adds up and kills most of my play time.

I used to play FFRK, when i was at a point of spending same amount of FFXI subs money on gacha gacha content, that was the point i decided to quit (also because FFRK started to become a mindless grinding fest).

The new cars for the Pike's Peak Cog Railway were lifted on to their tracks this week in Manitou Springs, meaning that the re-opening of this 100+ year old tradition is on schedule for May 2021.

The tourist attraction opened in 1890, and in 2017 was closed due to deteriorating track. Building a Cog railway through the wilderness and climbing almost 8,000 feet isn't exactly a weekend project- most of the track had to be rebuilt completely, and also required new equipment. Add in last year's shutdowns for COVID, and the schedule was drastically altered last March when they realized that their entire plan for summer work would be changed.

But if you ever visit Colorado and are coming from somewhere closer to sea level, its still the best way to get to stand at 14,000' feet and look upon the Rockies. :)

Setting your amount that low is just setting yourself up for failure

Lean proteins; chicken and fish

I also have bad tendency to get fat pretty quickly so what i did was buying a balance so i could keep track of my body weight changes daily. Then you can fine tune what / how much to eat without many sacrifices.

That said, 15kg for someone with 70kg (aka, youre not fat at all unless youre pretty short) in a month isnt something that seems normal. Maybe figuring what happened that month so you can get back to normal.

Real answer though is to look for a nutritionist, so you can have a proper diet. I myself am always thinking in going to one, mainly to have proper amount of vitamins daily, what is fundamental to stay healthy during a pandemic. But i admit that im really bad to convince myself to look for a doctor.

Highly annoyed that Godzilla Vs Kong came out a WEEK AGO in other countries and hit CAM already when we're still two days out.

Youtube feed has dozens of 10 second spoiler clips too

Not saying this happened, just thinking things through logically if it ever did.

The only way a nuclear nation can commit an act of war against another nuclear nation they see an enemy is a) sanctions b) hacking or c) germ warfare (because you can't prove a germ was an act of war).

If a nation ever committed an act of germ warfare against another, neither side would ever be able to admit it was an attack because you can't fight an enemy that has nuclear weapons. The threat going forward then would be that they could do so again at any time in the future and with a far more fatal strain, and this would require a fundamental change to all of the attacked nations societies to counter the risks of that germ warfare program going forward.

These changes would probably be education of your entire population against this threat, phasing out of areas of worst potential mass spread (such as sports crowds or music venues like woodstock), rules and regulations put in place for all areas open to the public, ability to track and trace people that are potentially able to bring a virus into a nation via world travel, creation of dedicated labs able to create vaccines fast as well as public acceptance of them and also governmental systems put in place to immediately instigate lockdowns again.

The only way you would ever be able to guess if the nation did actually commit this act of war, would be if your leaders retaliated in the only way that is acceptable for them to do so. Sanctions.

He said; corona was biological war because sanctions prove it. Therefor it was made in a lab and all the other implications therein.

I didn't actually say that, I just said if one nation ever did do this to another nation it would probably play out this way imo.

It's piratable now and I want to watch it now but not as a cam. "a few days" is too long. Already waited a year. It's done, it's ready to be shown, it should've been out last week for us too.
