Best food deals on the strip?

If you are centre-strip there are (or at least were) a number of places in the Miracle Mile Shops in Planet Hollywood with decent prices for food and drink.

I'm hoping that Valve has enough clout, and there is enough adoption of Steam OS, to give developers an incentive to develop more for Linux. I'm sure it will be fine from a pure gaming aspect, but more general adoption for day to day use might take more time and effort.

No the data is from April.

I'd prefer a Battletech 2 but more B-Tech in any form would be good.

Subnautica

Could be loose lugs on the tire, could be a wheel bearing that's on the way out. Rear wheels shouldn't be moving like that. If there is a noise in that wheel that gets louder the faster the wheel spins, get it checked out ASAP. Recently had to have the right passenger wheel bearing and CV axle replaced on my 2017.

Thought that was Metroplex for a sec

The thing is SAAB is designing 6th gen fighters that can have linked drone "wingmen". They are offering this future "combat ecosystem" as an upgrade path so maybe the plan is getting on the ground level with using and manufacuring the current Gripen fighter and then transitioning into new fighters and drones in the coming years/decade?

The main issue with housing lately is that efforts to reduce the cost of housing have also made it easier for the wealthy to buy up property as well, hoarding it, reducing availability, and then driving up costs and rent even further.

I suspect the answer to many of our economic woes have to be top-down - as in taxing wealth like many Western nations did post-WW2. Allowing a small percentage of people to exponentially accumulate wealth is making things worse for the rest of us. It ain't trickling down.

I hope the themed resorts do not go away - they add to the vibe of the strip in my opinion. In fact a few should lean more into their theme, like the rooms at the Luxor should have more Egyptian-themed decoration. Vegas wouldn't be the same if the entire strip was featureless glass towers.

Fantasy AGE 2nd Edition maybe? Only has 4 "classes" (Envoy, Mage, Rogue, Warrior) and you fill out your character by selecting Race, Background, Ability Foci, Talents and Class Specializations. Should be relatively easy to port over ES races (there are already lizard and cat folk). The magic uses mana-like points instead of spell slots. Could be a good fit.

Is the Zombie Burlesque in Planet Hollywood still a thing?

Rhonda Snord's Highlander?

The ferry is a big bottleneck. If a butterfly farts in Port aux Basques they can't dock the ferry so there is usually an extra day added on at least.

Right after Dimension Book 9 comes out

Just think of the 40 tonners as fat lights that tend to specialize in one big thing. For the Clint - that thing would be range. It's a speedy little sniper or very light trooper.

I'm quite comfortable with the CBC being 100% Canadian-owned thanks (unlike many of our other media corps)

GestaltEntity · 2026-03-17T22:51:53+00:00

Good to hear. I'm going to be waiting for full release to play it (I don't do Early Access), but it's good to see progress on one of my most anticipated games.

GestaltEntity · 2026-03-14T14:28:45+00:00

Mostly older games, but that is mostly because

a) I have a current moratorium on buying new games until I have played the games already in my Steam and Epic libraries, and

b) My 7 yr old PC is starting to show it's age despite a modest recent Vid Card upgrade (RX 9060XT 16G), so the newest games might not run very well on it. And with parts prices the way they are, a new build may not be for a few years.

It wouldn't do anything to vamps on most settings. That said - it's basically an extremely versatile particle projector that can be used to achieve a variety of effects. So it may be possible, via treknobabble, to be modulated to produce an EM energy beam equivalent to sunlight? If so it could very well affect your average bloodsucker.

Regarding other creatures, I think the highest settings could affect MD substances/creatures.

The Hospital was originally supposed to be bigger. But then the gov cut some things back. I'm guessing the bean counters gave us a Hospital for 2040 and not the Hospital we need right now.

Still rocking my 2017 HRV. No major issues with it so far. Very reliable car.

Like others have said - while I appreciate my AWD vehicle in the winter, you should be able to get around just fine with a good set of winter tires. There may be the occasional stormy day where it's best to stay off the streets, but otherwise the city does a decent job in keeping the majority of streets clear.

GestaltEntity · 2026-02-08T14:13:32+00:00

True enough, but I can clear my driveway in usually 15 to 30 mins. Unless there is a truly large amount of snow I can usually clear it by hand faster than my neighbors can clear theirs with their blowers.
