You can't misgender a brand. You can't deadname a brand. You can't befriend a brand.

I misread that as prefix and, honestly, forthwhence doesn't sound half bad.

Women are a better person to be in the past than a good quality piece of wood

What option do I need to use to get support for Heptapod B?

I could not get into the baby episode. The talking babies just put me off. Might have been scarier than the actual monster.

But the devil's cord was better. Great concept. Good mix of fun and serious and a nice follow up to the toy maker. I didn't feel it really made the most use of the beatles though, the maestro could have been in any time period with any musician. I was pleasantly surprised by the twist at the end.

RTD likes his recurring threads, so I guess the pantheon is going to anchor this series. So far we've had masters (gods?) of toys and music. What next - the different parts of what makes being human? Love? Food? And how does Ruby fit into it.

So far ncuti and millie are fitting in well. A bit different, bringing their own flair, but still capturing the right feel.

100% online games in the past were perfectly playable even after developers / publishers ended support. Online only games dying is a relatively recent invention. This petition is asking for consumer protection to return to the norm where a purchaser of an online game always has the choice of being able to play it in some fashion.

A game developer could do this by releasing a server application. They could even do this at the barest minimum by releasing documentation describing how the server ought to work, to allow for reverse engineering.

The Stop Killing Games campaign as a whole isn't asking for perpetual server access, just to ensure that games stay in some sort of playable state.

England really needs to get right to roam legislation like Scotland. It would make it more difficult for companies to make claims like this and make it clear that everyone has a responsibility to keep nature clean as its a shared resource

I was using it, but because it periodically did load fine I assumed I was just having network trouble. Thanks for fixing!

Instead of arguing about 0Mg vs 0mg - use the best of both and upset everyone: 0แดg

Begs the question - can the shed skin still change shape?

It does matter. It's safer for everyone if cyclists travel side by side in one lane because then the car driver has to spend less time in the oncoming lane to complete the overtake. A long string of bikes takes more time to safely pass.
