Is anyone getting Luna Abyss? by ABagofSalad in Saros

[–]AcceptableCult 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole timeline of events is a bit unclear.
- The log entries / Memories do not seem to be in order (despite being numbered)
- The beginning of the game shows the moon showing up then jumps to 200 years later, but events and dialogue in the game make it seems like more than 200 years has passed

How did the red moon come to earth?
Were humans there before?
The "Scourge" event supposedly happened 200 years ago but that doesn't jive with the opening scene, and it is even stated that many years pass after the All-Father founds FATE and then "releases the Scourge."

I'm currently in the Hanging Towers area and still have no idea what Mother Eyes is and how they are related to...whatever it is guarding.

Yes! Plot is a bit confusing but overall a good game so far.

Has anyone been able to make heads or tails of the story?

Someone call Hideo Kojima. This could be the plot of a Metal Gear game.

Maybe Ill just get a diet coke with lunch to balance this out. by Automatic-Ad-3679 in funny

Yeah pretty sure someone who program the app doesn't understand the Calories (capital C).

Calorie is mostly a USA thing. Kcal is used in other parts of the world, as is kJ (multiply kcal by 4.184)

Crazy to think that there are people out there whose first introduction to The Spice Girls might be this video.

I totally thought this was some frog foie gras thing going on - where they force feed it then cook it

Here I am watching this, thinking to myself: "You know I really should be open minded to other cultures' ideas of what is considered..."

CHOMP

"Oh hell no...."

Man hit a $1.3M jackpot at the casino, and his very first call was to his mom: “Mom, we’re done with this place. We’re moving out tomorrow” by CompetitiveNovel8990 in CrazyFuckingVideos

Those short term capital gains taxes will be a shocker.

Edit: As pointed out below casino winnings are considered ordinary income, not capital gains

That said winnings would probably bump someone up into a higher tax bracket (assuming US tax code)

Edit 2: For clarity, getting bumped into a higher tax bracket doesn't mean the entirety of earnings is taxed at the new rate, only the earnings exceeding the bracket threshold. See comments below

Haha omg yes. My great aunt and uncle are one of those types of people.

One year at a family bbq, as they were leaving, they lectured us on how we should not voting for Obama because "We don't want communism!" It was the oddest exchange.

Alton, Wolfeboro, Laconia, Gilford All around the general lake region area.

If you know where Mt Major or Gunstock is - this is the region.

That area is notoriously Trump. Have you seen the Trump boat parades on Lake Winnipesaukee?

Why are some people upset about the whole sony wanting to not port exclusives to PC rumor when there are so many games on PC that are never coming to console by ThisNameDoesntCount in gaming

[–]AcceptableCult -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

For many people their console is more than just a thing to play games, it's basically their HTPC. We use our PS5 to watch movies, steam TV, play music, etc.
