But if he decides against it for whatever reason, and the Democrats want a serious shot at retaining the White House, Jon Stewart should run on the Democratic ticket instead.

Antifar 07/09/22 4:28:27 PM #1 | It's just what the title sounds like: a level builder, but for 2D Zelda dungeons. It's not subtle about aping Zelda specifically; the demo is called "Fink's Awakening." But it's cool, you've got the sorts of items and tools you'd expect to be able to create puzzles with: bombs, a hookshot equivalent, switches, keys, etc. It's in early access, so there's more they plan on adding like more bosses and biomes, but I'm already really into the possibilities on offer. --- kin to all that throbs |

Antifar 07/07/22 11:19:46 PM #36 | TheBrainbuster posted... Someone said $1 but I swear to God I thought I read it was something like $5.https://thecurrentmsu.com/2021/01/24/prison-labor-americas-secret-workforce/ Prison labor sprung into national consciousness during Californias 2018 wildfire season, where convicts were brought in to help fight fires for $2 a day. NPR reports the use of inmate labor saved the state $100 million a year. (For reference, Zip Recruiter estimates that a non-convict firefighter makes nearly $100 a day, due to the danger and rigors of the job). https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-10-11/california-prison-factories-inmates-covid-19 Incarcerated workers in California and other states are not classified as employees. They cant get unemployment, sick leave or paid time off. The pay scale is set by state law, with many jobs paying 8 cents an hour and the CALPIA jobs paying more from 35 cents to $1 an hour. --- kin to all that throbs |

Antifar 07/07/22 11:13:07 PM #33 | TheBrainbuster posted... I thought I read that it was something like $5 an hour or $7 an hour or something. https://www.aclu.org/news/human-rights/captive-labor-stories-of-involuntary-servitude# The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour; in contrast, most prison jobs pay an average hourly rate of 13 to 52 cents. Deductions for taxes, court costs, and other fees can leave workers with even less. Seventy percent of laborers surveyed in the report said they could not afford basic necessities on their paltry wages. You can barely afford laundry soap with that amount of pay, said an incarcerated laborer in Illinois, who reported earning only $4.80 per month working as a porter. Thats one cent per hour. Some workers are not paid at all, including the majority in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Texas. https://www.aclu.org/report/captive-labor-exploitation-incarcerated-workers It is rare that a job pays more than a dollar an houreven the incarcerated firefighters braving the flames that rage across Californias forests and hillsides year after year are compensated at $1 an hour. --- kin to all that throbs |

Since 5 is wide open from the start it does start to feel like you're just playing map cleanup sometimesWell, you're playing it, you can tell me. But I will say that I was kinda surprised by how quickly I had unlocked all the events, even compared to 3 and 4 that seemed to have a more gradual rollout. But also I've played 160 hours, and that was the first 15-20, so it's not about that anymore. --- kin to all that throbs |

So 3-5 have been building to be these big racing and creative sandboxes that open up fairly quickly so you can play forever and have all this live content to keep you coming back for more, 1 is structured more like, well, the way sports games of that era were structured. You have annoying fictional characters as rivals, and you're tasked with working your way up the leaderboard at the festival, slowly being able to afford better cars and take part in higher level competitions along the way. It has more personality as a result of that. --- kin to all that throbs |
