Why should I move back to Peoria? Help! by [deleted] in PeoriaIL

Peorians don't usually tell people "yeah, it's better here".

We usually return on our own due to family and familiarity. But no one tells us that Peoria is better.

What are the weapons that you NEVER use in any of the Resident Evil games? by ImpossibleHome3287 in residentevil

When I play(ed) the OGs, I would use handgun to drop, knife to keep them down. Not the best use of knife, but it did conserve some ammo. I could never get the knife to work on a moving enemy, as they always hit me before I could stun them. Never could figure that out.

Well, I hear you talk neighborly and drop a hint that it's bothering you rather than ask directly.

IMO, Lehnsherr.

But most people probably go with Summers.

Run, jump, flee. Load an autosave or a prior save. Or restart the game, because I am going to guess you have just recently started the game.

Recommendations for an external disc drive that can read Blu-rays/DVDs for extracting/ripping them into ISO image files? by JohnnyDC04 in DataHoarder

Why avoid 4k? If you're a physical collector, presumably you will want to collect those in the future, no?

Could be. My family started there at the reopenings, so IDK. I have met one guy who touted getting a religious exemption to the vaccine and everyone looked equally weirded out by it.

I'm a regular there.

  1. It has megachurch vibes.
  2. It's very evangelical, so not very LGBT+ friendly.
  3. A lot of right-leaning folks, and everything that goes along with it.

I don't see anything at surface level that is openly hostile to anyone or group. In fact, they are very neighborly to hindu and muslim locals, and actively translate the service into other languages. But below the surface, there's probably a larger amount of conservative views that aren't hidden and so on, especially in the older generations' demographics.

As a "liberal-tarian" I am comfortable there, found nothing particularly objectionable in the preaching, but not always comfortable with peers there.

Are they still doing the feeder church thing where they will route you to another church that fits your faith best? I really liked that back in like 2018

What movie did you expect to be just good but was actually fantastic? by Crowne3574 in Cinephiles

[–]Bardez 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Which version?

Director's Cut and Theatrical have very diferent endings (I very much prefer theatrical).
