To be fair, you aren't donating anything when you round up. You are simply being charged more, and McDonald's makes a higher profit.

Then they get a fat tax break for taking the extra profits they weaseled from you and donating it to....their own charity.

Yeah I don't think the star trek writers are even trying to include the eventual inhumane ramp up of the miracle cure production either.

Some lab is probably chucking those lizards into a blender.

Youtubes fresh battle with adblockers has had me on a 6 month music video rip spree, with no signs of slowing down.

Right now Jdownloader2 plus a browser extension to copy cookie info to the clipboard is working half decently.

Once I started, I realized I can do a lot more with the videos now that they're off youtube. No more ASR subtitles, I can time lyrics myself using Gaupol. I've also figured out how to pack the new subtitle, as well as original thumbnails and YT descriptions into the video using mkvtoolnix. Now a single video file can be dropped into jellyfin and fully provide its own local Metadata.

It's going well and I'm not slowing down at all. Fuck you, youtube.

Mods moderating based on their personal feelings is bad form.

Steam forces game updates down your throat. It makes sense for competitive online games, but take fallout 4 for example. Totally offline single player. A million mods made for specific game versions, and all the guides for modding stress a half dozen little things you can do to your steam install to stop the updates but the shit happens anyway. Crap like modifying steam INI files and making them read only. Shit users shouldn't need to do.

It's not on Bethesda to just what...not update their game? It's on steam to say hold up, maybe we shouldnt be pushing this update - it might break everything. Yes/no dialog prompts aren't rocket science.

A few weeks ago Bethesda pushed a new update on a 10+ year old game, and it destroyed countless modded save files for everyone. This is on steam and their ham fisted updates.

Edit: don't take my word for it, find some reviews here with 1000+ hours in the game:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/377160/reviews/

910.3 hrs on record - "Bethesda? Please stop releasing updates to 10y+ old games. Just breaking mods and frustrating players at this point."

1,565.3 hrs on record - 'Well, after 1.6K hours spent playing, all the towns built, monsters killed and latex suits craftet for my beautifull girls companions, latest update destroyed all the 200 mods again...'

1,617.5 hrs on record - "The new update was hot rubbish. Leave well enough alone Bethesda, updating a ten-year old game and breaking a thriving modding community..."

Jdownloader2 is some horrid looking Java program that actually kicks ass.

I'm going to stop you at the very first sentence when you called it optional. You cannot complete the community center without a serious undetstanding of the fishing mechanic. It's probably my biggest gripe of the game, because I DO want fishing to be optional and it very much is NOT optional.

2 years in and you're trying to finish the community center so you have to spend 10 minutes on a random wiki to discover you're going to have to wait 3 seasons before you can catch some of the required fish to finish the game. That part right there is not a fun mechanic. At all.
