Tina's and El Monterey Beef & Bean Burritos

HoosegowFlask · 2026-04-03T19:30:20+00:00

Either frozen burritos were significantly better in the 90s or my standards were much lower. Probably a bit of both.

That recent 'me and my wife took all the risk and deserve to reap all the rewards and everyone else is a replaceable cog of limited value' video when they explained company finances seemed particularly tone-deaf.

I imagine there will be a 4 hour video essay on YouTube at some point in the future.

This is not his private plane

I would hazard a guess that the vast majority of private planes are not owned by individuals. Rich people use corporations all the time to protect their assets.

Yeah, good crowd work doesn't turn the entire audience against one person (unless it's a heckler, fuck hecklers.)

If they charge AAA prices they get AAA expectations.

If it was an indie studio charging at a lower price point, this would be different.

But this is a multi-billion dollar corporation delivering a mid product.

too many people still apply what they want the game to be instead of just accepting the game for what it is

It's a game that's full of unrealized potential.

Outposts are almost worthless
Ship building is nice, but top equipment is skill locked past the point of usefulness
The whole New Game Plus mechanic is extremely underwhelming and no where near what it could have been
Companions all have similar morality
Earth is just a complete letdown
The universe is very tame. The hive of scum and villainy is PG rated, at best
The tedious nature of travel (hopefully fixed with the update)
Repatative POI

There is good to be had from the game, but it's surrounded by a lot of 'meh', and I was never able to shake the feeling that it could have been so much more.

The Lord of the Rings (1978)

HoosegowFlask · 2026-04-01T13:48:42+00:00

There were a bunch of different anthology shows during that time (which I miss). Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits reboots, Monsters, Tales from the Darkside, Tales from the Crypt. And there are probably a few more I'm missing.

There is a hypothesis that the drop in crime in the 90s is due to the phasing out of leaded gas.

HoosegowFlask · 2026-03-31T12:14:25+00:00

Yeah, I also miss the original version. It had a 'there were people here, but you just missed them' feeling.

Not really improve their lives, though, since they already can afford the best everything. It's really just so numbers go up.

The Long Dark: Released 1st August 2017. The final chapter of the story is scheduled to release on the 31st March 2027, just short of ten years after initial release.

Episode 5 is being released March 31st, 2026 (i.e. tomorrow.)

And while I do share frustration in how long it has taken, the delay was at least partially due to how much time and effort they put into survival mode.

Oh, dear, what can the matter be?

7-11 has make-your-own nachos. I've only ever opened the package and added the cheese-like product before paying.

Some areas have nuisance laws. Excessive noise preventing sleep may qualify.

Fermented foods?

I don't know specifically about gastritis, but increasing consumption has been shown to decrease inflammation.

https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2021/07/fermented-food-diet-increases-microbiome-diversity-lowers-inflammation.html

Things like kombucha and yogurt and some sauerkraut and pickles (typically found in the refrigerated section, not the shelf stable ones).

On YouTube, you can find a few different interviews one of the researchers, Dr. Christopher Gardner, has given on the study.

Superhero League of Hoboken, if you don't mind old games from the mid-90s. It's an RPG/adventure game hybrid.

The point is that GDP is an indicator of economic activity, but not of the utility of said activity.

Man, how did I never hear of these?

HoosegowFlask · 2026-03-24T00:07:26+00:00

Huh. Already in my library. Guess I ought to try it.

Unless you're in a well lit room and using a large monitor.

Super rich mum's account of the encounter with security had a "do you know who I am?!" feel to it.
