In the interest of getting the info out there considering it's uncertain to me whether that's allowed or not (so it doesn't get removed, primarily), the one I'm seeing starts off "To the Feds". It's easy to find.

That doesn't match the ones I'm seeing being reported on, is that one a different one than the ones I'm seeing reported?

Love me some malaphors. My personal favorite is mixing "shit or get off the pot" and "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen"

I don't know how much it being set (in the show and the original games and new Vegas) in an arid dry location might impact your average building's longevity, and also at least in this case I just ultimately consider that the property is based on the setting for a D&D game iirc and in the end rule of cool wins out. Maybe unrealistic, or maybe the result of an alternate timeline that led to divergent construction standards from the constant threat of war that made all buildings be regulated to be capable of withstanding direct attack or something stupid that inadvertently had the effect of making newer structures last for hundreds of years longer. There's all kinds of hand-waving that could just easily be done by Bethesda at this point, they already introduced the brotherhood of steel in 76 much earlier than previously established in their own canon, might as well retcon basically anything.

Edit: New Vegas, for example, had a lore excuse and shows what I think is also reasonable decay under the circumstances. Earlier games were similarly more realistically destitute and broken down, except where it made sense. Bethesda likely just thought that running around a bunch of radioactive ash would be more boring.

I'm in tears, I've finally found the version of this toy I had as a kid.

Thank you so much for this shitpost, sincerely.

Until we can finally kill HSP/HFP, I'm never gonna be happy with Bluetooth. Using a headset mic shouldn't blast you back to the telephone era.

Photoshop requires time and talent to make a believable image.

This requires neither.

Synthetic urine exists.

Yeah, but it never tastes quite the same.

As my father always said: you may be a funny person, but looks don't count for everything.

It'll never catch on.

And yet, this is the issue that gets a response instead of a silent closed offtopic wontfix.

They don't recognize or value software patents because they aren't recognized by the government where the project is run from.
