What You've Done Today - We do not remember days, we remember moments
Gfted1 replied to ShadySands's topic in Way Off-Topic
That was an informative read to me due to some interesting differences. Now mind, I only go to church when someone is baptized or buried, so things might have changed, but around these parts: you can pop in/out of any church you want (you dont have to join them), theres nobody collecting data about who is a memeber of which chuch (unless you get baptized or buried there), they pass around a basket during mass and you just toss some money in (Iirc, the tithing should be ~10% of your income) but this is voluntary. Also, for clarity, is there no separation of church and state in your country? -

Ukraine's Devastating Thermobaric Drone Wipes Out Russian Target (newsweek.com)

^This link has drone video of some of the attack: Ukraine Situation Report: Russian Armor Massacre At Avdiivka (twz.com) *WARNING* Embedded X links within the article shows people getting wounded / dead. *WARNING* Weirdly, I can dissociate watching a tank get smoked, but watching them drive an explosive drone directly into a dude hiding under come debris was gross and it bothered me watching him writhe in pain. War is a mofo.

I did the same after my last physical. But they just mailed me a Cologuard kit and then you mail it back. Seemed better than a colonoscopy. -

Florida braces for lawsuits over law banning kids from social media | Ars Technica Part of me is aghast because I consider FL to be populated with a bunch of rednecks that are regressing our society, another part of me thinks they got this one right. Social media is a cancer, especially to young children.

Obsidian Entertainment: My Thoughts on most of their games
Gfted1 replied to jeffreystocks's topic in Computer and Console
I own all the BG EE's but havent played any of them. Even though its my favorite RPG of all time (like another poster mentioned, I could never get my head around D&D 3.5) Ive only ever played it once. I save scum and click through all the dialog options in the first playthrough, so theres never a time I replay them for a different outcome. I guess Im just a game collector now lol. -

@BruceVC Are you sure youre clearing all the story missions? If Im reading this article correctly, even the lowest amount of missions (Jacob 41) rewarding the lowest possible value (600 points) should yield enough resistance points to advance the hardest region (24,600/13,000): Far Cry 5: Fastest Ways To Get Resistance Points (gamerant.com) -

Coincidentally, I was recently reacquainted with a person who I went to AE "A" school with 30 years ago in the Navy, and it turns out a different buddy of ours from the same class died last November. Since we are all around the same age I was bummed to think about the fragility of life. My daily light exercising continues unabated and Ive been able to increase the reps and weight for each exercise. Im still doing just body weight and dumbbell exercises but I did buy myself a weight bench so I could get up off the damn floor lol: Amazon.com : Lusper Adjustable Weight Bench Foldable - 660 Lb Stable Workout Bench, Extended head and neck protection design, 3 Sec Fast Folding Multi-Purpose for Full Body Workout : Sports & Outdoors Its really interesting to me that since 1 Jan I can already see improvements in my physique. Its like the slightest effort and the human body wants to jump into action. Feels good man. -
