It is hard to see the forest through the trees.

Most schools have a few cameras up. But yeah, let's put up high tech surveillance systems. It's not like that money could be better spent anywhere else.

I enjoyed it too. My hope is that they return to it down the road. It will probably be a smaller project overall. The tough part is we need Avowed to be successful to keep the IP viable, but if it is too successful, they will probably never go back to isometric. That's what happened to Warcraft.

Shang-Chi featured San Francisco, so I dug it. Also Awkwafina is a fantastic sidekick. Also Karaoke. Also Sir Ben Kingsley. It was more enjoyable than the Eternals for me, which took like 3 sittings to finish. It was probably a bit more serious than I would have liked. Also it bothered me that they were living with the Aztec, and some of them were all upset when the city of Tenochtitlan erupted in violence with conquistadors besieging the Aztec (when the reality was there were many other tribes fighting alongside the Spanish.) The Aztec sacrificed tens of thousands of people on a yearly basis, so it seemed strange to hone in on this specific moment as the worst of humanity. But hey, I nitpick. I liked the gardens of Babylon.

Ok sure, I don't see any potential legal issues with recording a bunch of underage kids and broadcasting it out for everyone.

Peacemaker ep 1 was pretty fun. That eagle is fantastic. Sometimes a man needs to challenge themselves with a case of scabies.

Sea Dogs was my jam back in the day.

The narrative is a bit meandering, but the video footage is fantastic.

Man, this Djokovic guy has a few screws loose. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/tennis/news/novak-djokovic-believes-people-can-change-chemical-structure-water-thoughts/ted7hr6ior491dqz9nptrsa4y

Phoenix Point really also needed a year of DLC to flesh out all of the systems. They added a lot of content.

I've been watching The Real World Season 1 reunion with my wife, and it is a nostalgic blast. It's pretty crazy to see how everyone has changed now that they are in their 50's (or for one cast member, hasn't changed.) I also watched Hawkeye last weekend and it was good fun. I've been slowly working my way through the Eternals. It is fun seeing the historical sites, but I'm still a bit superheroed out.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/monett-high-school-removes-social-213807435.html Parents, man. I think the teachers would have been alright if they didn't say the alternative assigned reading would be more difficult, but I still shake my head at the whole thing. Let's create a committee for every bit of curriculum.

e) We already have it. I mean, with social media and credit scores, we are pretty much already there. You can get cancelled quickly enough with those.

As a person who wears glasses, I really struggled with the ones that aren't cloth. But with the recent rise, I've committed to wearing surgical masks in class and just not being able to see well.

Missed opportunity, there. They should have printed Let's Go Brandon just to see if they can trick the other side inot wearing them.

My school district is supposed to be getting us the fancy N95 masks soon. Exciting perks of teaching. They are definitely getting re-used, but I don't see how that is a real problem. The main point of the mask seems to be to stop you from spreading your stuff all over, right? So if you wear the same mask over and over again, it is still stopping you from breathing all over everything. I am not Dr. Science, but that is my layman's understanding.

I'd actually say Covid is an example of what we can accomplish in this country when we stop worrying about profit margins in the US. It varies by state, but we have thrown together a massive operation of testing and vaccinations that has managed to reach over 60% of the country in less than a year, and it is offered freely. I've been nothing but impressed by the process that has helped my entire family get vaccinated and tested regularly.

Was your initial post about Venezuela in response to Raithe's image? I imagine it probably wasn't, but it did come across that way because the two posts were so close together. Anyway, in the US we have quite a few socialist programs to deal with housing, food, and medical care. They just tend to be local and small scale, particularly compared to the profit margins and big business models that dominate housing, food, and medicine. So yeah, I don't think anyone outside of the extreme ends of the political spectrum is arguing for a full central planning socialism system in the US. But I sure would like a decent Universal Health Care system in place before I get too old and my maintenance costs start to skyrocket.

Well the AC games do have an entirely different mode now. I'm not sure how enjoyable it is, but I like the investment in a historical exploration mode: https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/assassins-creed-odyssey/article/accessing-discovery-tour-ancient-greece/000065793

Hey, when it finally comes out in 20 years, maybe your motivation will return.

Plot Twist: NFT's end up being the only currency to survive the Great Collapse.

It is still in beta, and seems to have another year or so of development time.

I wonder how close they are to 'feature complete' they are in the game? I bought it and there was very little, then I loaded it up a few months ago and there was a pretty decent storyline to follow. I also started to win arena battles.

I hope they get it worked out soon. I can't imagine either side thinks it would be good to miss more games after the pandemic losses. I haven't read up on the negotiations, but I am willing to accept the DH in the National League. I was opposed to it for years, but after watching it during the short season, I got comfortable with it quickly enough.

Geez, 65 seems very young.
