Koala: I will adapt to a niche with no competition to secure a permanent* food source for my lineage!
*Permanence not guaranteed.
I'm on board with this, but I may be biased because I also don't like using Discord for anything else. Every time someone sends me a Discord invite I feel a little defeated, because it is usually after I have agreed to participate in something.
"Captain America converts Thor to Christianity" could be very funny, actually.
That mothers shouldn't co-sleep with infants. Every other primate I know of co-sleeps with their offspring. Until very recently every human mother co-slept with her infants, and in like half of the globe people still do. Many mothers find it incredibly psychologically stressful to sleep without their infant because our ancestors co-slept every generation for hundreds of thousands of years.
I would bet money that forcing infants to sleep alone has negative developmental effects.
I have the opposite problem where Youtubers who I watch because I enjoy their unedited, off-the-cuff content keep deciding to put more effort into their channel and start producing videos that are scripted and edited well, which I find way less interesting and watchable than their stream-of-consciousness rambling was. WolfeyVGC is a big one. He theoretically has a second channel for low effort content but he rarely posts to it.
YouTube eventually responded, intending to leave a message in two tweets. However, it only sent one tweet, and just... forgot to send the next part, I suppose.
"Upon careful review, we've confirmed that your channel was suspended for violating Google's Terms of Service," says YouTube support. "While it didn't violate any YouTube channel monetization policies, it's linked to a Google acct that has an issue."
Since we never got the second part of that message, we have no idea what caused the channel's ban, and why it kicked in shortly after Wiles shared a VOD of her Baldur's Gate 3 stream. In any case, her Twitch channel is still up, if you're hoping to tune in to her next Baldur's Gate session.
Absolutely bizarre. What kind of Google Account issue can get you banned from YouTube? They already killed all their other social platforms, so it can't be something she did on Groups or Chat. (Did these get merged into + and Hangouts before being killed off? They've had so many of these.) Maybe she did a chargeback on a Play Store purchase or something? I feel like that would be pretty obvious to her, though, and she seems as confused as everyone else.
What the hell? Surely someone at their professional game development studio is capable of writing a patcher? It's not black magic.
Silverstein said Hughes also violated the policy earlier in the year, when she signed an open letter protesting the Times’s coverage of transgender issues. “She and I discussed that her desire to stake out this kind of public position and join in public protests isn’t compatible with being a journalist at The Times, and we both came to the conclusion that she should resign,” he wrote in the email.
It seems having a spine isn't compatible with being a journalist at the Times.
I would ask if I'm getting royalties from this episode, and if the answer was no I would walk out.
Coming fresh off BG3, the quality of the writing and the amount of character expression in dialog is like night and day. Honestly there was even one moment fairly early on when I said to myself "Fallout 4 would have let me extort this guy" and then I realized how egregious it was that I felt I had less agency in this quest than in FO4.
Is it just me, or is announcing this before you are ready to announce the replacement a very weird thing to do? They could keep selling these right up until they're ready for the new system, but instead they're just going to have a dead month (or however long) where people can't throw money at them. Aren't they trying to make money, to raise their valuation for their IPO?
There seems to be something contradictory about the idea that letting people elect judges endangers democracy. If you don't trust the people to elect judges, how can you trust them to elect the people who appoint judges?
