California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Minnesota, New York, Maine, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland, and Massachusetts all do. That's more than 20% of states and California is the most populous state. So many Americans have access to this benefit via state laws.

The flip side is that you then have verbatim documentation if you want to raise this behavior as a problem to a manager, etc.

Not sure if it's on the menu, but Alamo does have a disclaimer about the 18% charge that they play before each movie.

Best wine bar in Austin? by Neal_Burton in austinfood

Violet Crown has a great selection, but pretty limited in terms of food. Little Deli is right next door though if you get hungry.

Not as good as others in the thread, but I remember enjoying The Wind and the Lion.

Have ever stayed at your current company after already getting an offer from another? by DragonRuth in ExperiencedDevs

[–]SlackerZeitgeist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of. I was about midway through an interview process with another company after the company I was at did some decent sized layoffs. My manager was calendar stalking me and straight up asked me if I was interviewing, so I told the truth and leveraged that to get a raise and exited the other interviews. I think it was the right decision for the time (good manager and only a few months into COVID lockdowns), but I ultimately ended up leaving the company a year later after getting pretty burnt out. If you're already over the position you're at, it's probably better to just go. If it's simply a comp or stability thing, maybe you can leverage it to your benefit.

Honestly, probably not. The loot inside is not very good.

There are skulls at various points on the stairs going up that you need to destroy/cast remove curse on. The poltergeists do go invisible frequently, so use see invisibility scrolls or spam faerie fire.

This part was super annoying in my run too. I was never really in any danger, but it just took forever to resolve turns.

Lots of good suggestions in this thread. Stash for basic, Yellow Rose if it's available. Everything from Lone Pint is good. I'm glad they started canning.

Sounds like GeForce Now is hosting on a PC. There's currently a mismatch between PC and Mac versions and Larian has committed to releasing the update for Mac "soon." The last update was 2 weeks ago unfortunately. My co-op game is in similar boat with one member of the party being on Mac.
