Just adding to the pile, experiencing the same under the followimg conditions:

• firefox desktop
• firefox mobile
• chrome desktop
• voyager app

I’ve observed this while on and off VPNs, from home and work connections, as well as wired and wireless.

I’m (not really) glad to hear others having issues. This started at the same time I started using mullvad vpn and I was worried I might have some issues to iron out there.

Tunic was such a fun adventure.

• Shadow Labyrinth: A metroidvania set in a very dark timeline for Pac-Man. As a metroidvania it is solid. The traversal and exploration are on par for the genre. The sections where you transform into Pac-Man are a cool new take as a variation of Metroid’s classic ball. The maze levels which most resemble the Pac-Man we’re all familiar with provide quite a challenge. Overall I would put this on the shelf next to some of my other favorite metroidvanias including, but not limited to, Hollow Knight, Sundered, and the Ori games.

• Tales from the Shire: A cozy sim of living in a Hobbit village. I’m sorry, not-village, as that is the goal of the game: to make your small town an official village. I find the pathfinding mechanics in this game adorable and liken them to the wind in Ghost of Tsushima which acted as your objective guide. In Tales from the Shire you follow little blue birds that perch on nearby trees, rocks, and signposts. Speaking of which, when they’re on a signpost they actually sit on the board pointing in the direction you need to go.

• Primal Planet: Another metroidvania, this one is a primitive setting where you’re a caveman living with your village when it is attacked. You then track down your missing villagers and rebuild the village while levelling up, gaining new crafting recipes, etc. Nothing groundbreaking in here, but it is still a good pixelated entry in the genre with a nice art style and animation. This game does do a really good job of letting you know when you’re under-levelled for an area…brutally so.

1. Yes, both. You can private lobby just the three of you or public lobby and it is open to other joining but you do not have to wait, you can start with just 1 diver even.
2. No. Progression doesn’t lock you out from one another. You’ll just have more tools to pick from.
3. Active. I play solo queue all the time and never wait more than a minute to get into a round. The community is refreshingly nontoxic. The co-op nature makes the game naturally foster teamwork.
4. Progression is based on completing missions for samples, requisition slips, medals, and super credits. You can play any available missions to progress.

• Samples and Req Slips: purchase new weapons, stratagems, and upgrades
• Medals: purchase skins, weapons, stratagems, emotes, etc. from War Bonds
• super Credits: purchase War Bonds. Super creds can be bought with real money but are affordable through regular gameplay.

5. Build diversity is personal choice. You can make a lot of things work together depending on enemy type, mission, and terrain. You can coordinate builds with friends or squadmates but it is most definitely not needed. It’s pretty rare for loadouts to even be discussed during mission prep.

The cake is a lie.

I excel at [other duties as required]

Thank you so much for the guide. I want to add plumbing and add aquaponic gardens to our freshwater aquariums.

It’s hard planning any big future projects since I don’t know when we’re going to have to flee the country.

I have a lettuce nudibranch in my salt water tank! They’re great algae cleaners.

I’m not sure how this is news, though, because it’s been known for some time that various species of nudibranchs do this. Including the super cute leaf sheep!

Maybe an oblique reference to The Seventh Sign because Demi Moore is in it?

Thank you. I’d heard/read it before and forgot. Coulda googled but conversationally obtained information tends to stick better for me.

Super cool, look forward to seeing the moss spread.

Question: what is LECA?

I’ve been tending a volunteer moss garden in my yard for 1.5 years now. I haven’t brought it in for propagation but I do think about it from time to time. Mind sharing your propagation method?

This is either a bad faith argument, trolling, deliberate mischaracterization, or you have seriously misunderstood what you’ve read.

No, but they’ve kept the servers on all this time so while the games was not getting updates it was still playable.

I moved there from Saint Louis, Missouri in 2005. Having grown up in a conservative family in a state that went from purple to red while I was growing up…arriving in Seattle I finally felt sane and able to breathe. I have no regrets about the move back to StL but also cannot wait to return to where my heart and soul still reside.

Formerly and future. I was back visiting with my family.

And now we have a plan to move up there.

Mission success.

That’s in Seattle’s Post Aleey right off the Pike Place Market. People put up art and posters all the time. It’ll be pasted, painter, or drawn over before being pulled down.

I mean, maybe some assholes like the Texas family at the airport that told their kids to hold it instead of using a unisex bathroom with floor to ceiling walls and doors on the stalls (like civilized countries do). They might tear it off the wall, but only when no one is looking because they’re cowards.

Here’s that Dr. Pepper poster and a bonus.

I saw this about warm Dr.Pepper on posters in Post Alley in Seattle right across from the gum wall where tons of tourists will see them.
