TopicWhile driving, how often do you check your mirrors?

Rear mirror every ~2-3s sounds right
Left mirror every ~5-10s
Right rarely unless I really need to

I love the rear since you can see both left/right at once, with much better depth perception. It's a bad habit though because the back is often blocked. And most cars have a tiny useless rear window, so if I'm driving a rental or something I have to adjust to using the right mirror more..

I feel this. I was talking to family about this and they looked at me like I was crazy. But Ive driven a small car for the last 15+ years where I have pretty good vision out the back from the rear view mirror.

I have genuine low level anxiety about finding myself in a situation where the rear mirror is useless. But I hear that newer cars with obstructed views are starting to come with virtual rear view mirrors via a rear facing camera, which sounds awesome.

Figured The Ataris would clock in last based on the publicly submitted lists plus Fools dislike of pop punk, but damn!

BSB being near the bottom was inevitable as well.

My guess going in was that Green Day would take #1 easily but Im not so sure after seeing some of the lists. I think Tool is likely very high up as well. Maybe Black Sabbath as well.

Make sure to stretch before and after your cardio. Especially with walking, it can lead to tight hips because of the repetitive motion.

Also, do the cardio that works for you. I hate running but love going for long walks. Ive soured a big on biking but continue to love swimming.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/16/us/florida-textbooks-african-american-history.html

The New York Times reports...

NYT shows how the textbook changed:
Original: "The law said African Americans had to give up their seats on the bus if a white person wanted to sit down"
Draft 1: "She was told to move to a different seat because of the color of her skin"
Draft 2: "She was told to move to a different seat"

If I'm reading the NYT article correctly, the textbook publisher backpedaled back to the Draft 1 version and pulled Draft 2 from review by the state when the NYT reached out for comment on this story but this is exactly the kind of effect DeSantis and the GOP are trying to get from publishers, threatening them into "self-censoring" to comply with these laws.

Talk about white washing history

On Track 8 of Hi-Fi Rush. I am loving it so far; however, I am atrocious at doing anything to the rhythm... Parrying in particular.

With the parrying, theres no penalty for hitting the off beats. So if you just tap for every beat, youll be fine.

I feel like being able to do those parries is pretty important for those last stages.

A middle of the road album for me. There's stuff that I liked here but nothing I loved. I found the last few songs in my ranking to be kind of boring. Feels like an album though that I might enjoy more the more I listen.

Started MP: Remaster today. Just did the opening sequence.

Was trying to figure out which control scheme works best. I used Dual Stick since camera control on the right stick feels right...but then again I hate playing shooters with gamepads. Pointer had promise too but something about moving view with the gryo was weirding me out. The other 2 options just felt completely unnatural in 2023.

Apparently there's a camera option to enable gyro aim with Dual Stick, so I need to try that out.

I started Hi-Fi Rush over the weekend, and I'm waiting for it to click with me. I'm still on the first track though, so maybe I just need to get out of the intro level.

They certainly lay on more mechanics but you'll probably know if it's for you within a few tracks/levels.

3/5ths through! Need to take a break though as I'm getting some ear and mental fatigue. It's been good to do this though as I've actually moved albums around more than I was expecting. Some of these just tend to fair a little better as "just listening to it" album experiences, removed from needing to rank the individual tracks.

Galaxy 2 >>> Galaxy 1 > Portal

Haven't played Portal 2, although I need to put it on my list. Portal 1 didn't wow me, so I've always been lazy about checking out the sequel.

Portal 2 is better from a gameplay perspective than the original. But I'm not sure it would sway your opinion if you didn't enjoy the first.

Good winner, though I would say that for any of the semifinalists. I've actually played all of them except for Galaxy 2 within the past year!

Adios finished!

Yep, I watched that. Not really much game there. Story was fine; I liked the way they used the grayed out options.

I had some glitches playing this. Not sure if it was just my old ass PC. Certainly the intermittent graphical artifacts were likely from that. But then there was being unable to sit to milk the goats without restarting the scene. And some wacky dialog displays during the phone conversations. Ah well, doesn't really matter. This isn't one I'm ever going to play again.

I have played them all except for Pyre.

Transistor and Hades are outstanding. In both, I loved the plethora and variety of abilities and mixing and matching abilties to see what worked best/was a blast. It has been like I decade, but I remember thinking that Bastion is a fine isometric action game that suffers from hiding the best weapons until like the final third of the game.

Probably why I remember immediately replaying Bastion back in the day.

But your point about Supergiant Games design philosophy is spot on. They manage to do what few games do and make you experiment with different approaches, rather than just sticking with the "tried and true" or min/maxing a particular strategy. That remains a strength in Pyre as well, I just wasn't quite as high on the general gameplay.
