I actually didn’t realize that. I was thinking we were coming to an end because my buddy’s ranch seems to have mostly recovered and he’s got more cattle now than he had a few years ago. But I guess I should look at the wider market instead of a single place if I’m going to comment about things.
COVID wasn’t the only factor. What people don’t remember because of all the other crazy shit that happened was that we had a 3 year drought.
Prices still haven’t stabilized because it’s expensive to buy cattle right now. Prices will likely be in the shitter for another 1.5-2 years, and I’m not sure they’ll ever really come down in a way people notice.
It will also make it easier to notice for the average consumer, which could change shopping habits and ultimately lead to a lower stable price.
I went to your profile expecting to see you modding and commenting on a community about how great it is to subjugate others or something. I forget that some folks hate sports so much that they also don’t want others to enjoy sports.
So I did a little research. Along with what you heard, rolling may be the only way to do it. Hypertapping may not be fast enough.
As a drunk language model I do not have that information.
I say dumb shit from time to time, especially while drunk, and I’ve noticed after that I tend to have several comments in a row downvoted pretty quickly no matter the subject or thread. Things that are completely unrelated.
I’m not saying that’s what happened here, it’s just a trend I’ve noticed.
Some guy played to level 255 and it rolled back to level 0, (that’s the rebirth). Then he played to level 91 after that. To answer an unasked but important question: he did it on a ROM and not a cartridge because it’s pretty damn likely a cartridge would have crashed long before this point. Even on this particular ROM there are a bunch of ways to crash it (there’s loads of them documented).
I’d be out there until I was floating in a most peculiar way.
I actually assumed it was because Dark Brandon was popular and getting things done.
I use a VPN for the same reason I use the Internet. Porn.
Chrono Trigger (and Chrono Cross for that matter) is a better game for sure but I played Crystalis as a kid when it first came out so it’ll always hold a special place in my heart. Chrono Trigger came out when I was about to become a teen so I had other things on my mind at the time.
As for Baldur’s Gate…kind of? Without going too far into it, most of the D&D worlds had some sort of apocalypse in their past. Faerûn’s apocalypse was so far back that they’ve completely rebuilt, and they were already fantasy so there was no serious genre shift (it’s high fantasy) and it doesn’t fall under the Earth All Along trope. The floating city that crashed when shit went wrong was held up by magic.
Ok, I went further into that than I meant to. I’m an old nerd.
I loved Chrono Trigger! The very first example of this that I ran into as a kid was Crystalis. You are told at the beginning that it’s Earth after an end of the world event, but it’s a sword and sorcery overhead action RPG (think original Legend of Zelda with slightly more RPG, slightly more action, and slightly more varied combat) and ends with you shooting advanced technology with your magic sword.
Do I need to roll out and perform a wellness check on you?
I hope there are security tapes.
The best one being “Damn, this looks stupid”.
I think there’s a time between “This thing is possible I guess” and “you’re already fucked” that I’d like to hear about things.
And ebaum’s world. And rotten. And something awful.
I never put that together with wardriving but that’s exactly what it is. Thank you for that.
Unrelated story: ~20 years ago I was in the military and broke as hell. I went wardriving in my neighborhood looking for open wifi and found a business not too far away that had it. So I built an antenna out of a coffee can, mounted it up just outside my window, and got free wifi for months.
I won’t say why but I feel personally attacked by this duck. Well done!
