The story is good, the gameplay isnt very good until the 3rd game

The gameplay in the first game is ok. Generic JRPG stuff for the first half of the game. The second half of the game is X-Bustersaga

The game has about as much gambling as solitaire

But it would help somewhat to avoid shit like this

The op of that topic is a god damn embarrassment to the human race

Translator's note:

In the intricate world of chess, where strategy and tactics intertwine, **making an illegal move** can happen for various reasons. Let's explore some of them:

1. **Accidental Oversight**: Often, players unintentionally make illegal moves due to oversight or lack of awareness. Perhaps they didn't realize their king was in check or misunderstood a piece's allowed movements.

2. **Pressure and Nerves**: In high-stakes games, nerves can play tricks on even the most seasoned players. The pressure to perform well might lead to hasty decisions, resulting in an inadvertent illegal move.

3. **Complexity of Rules**: Chess has a plethora of rules governing piece movements, castling, en passant captures, and pawn promotion. Amidst this complexity, players might inadvertently violate a rule.

4. **Psychological Tactics**: Some players intentionally make illegal moves as a psychological ploy. They hope to confuse or distract their opponent, disrupting their focus and rhythm.

5. **Desperation**: When faced with a losing position, a player might resort to an illegal move out of desperation. They hope their opponent won't notice, or perhaps they're banking on insufficient mating material to salvage a draw.

Remember, the consequences of an illegal move vary:
- **First Offense**: The opponent gains extra time (two minutes in standard games, one minute in blitz).
- **Second Offense**: The player loses the game.
- **Insufficient Mating Material**: If the opponent lacks enough pieces to checkmate, the game is drawn.

So, whether accidental or strategic, illegal moves add an intriguing layer to the chess battlefield.

I think you can fish in Central Park. Which is kinda crazy to think about. There was some video some random guy filmed when he found Tucker Carlson fishing at a pond I think in Central Park

I think I read that there used to be more wild animals there. Like deer and other things, in the 1800s. It was more of a true forest, inside the city

In the 1800s (before the civil war) it was a (relatively) wealthy black neighborhood that the government seized through eminent domain and demolished to build an empty park because white people didn't like the idea of black people having nice things.

That's called a severance package

What the hell is a redundancy package

No, it's not.

Yes it is

to make a replica that fools experts is not work?

How are you making and presenting the replica is what matters. Not the act of making the replica itself.

Plagiarism is not "not doing work while saying you're doing work".

At a high level, yes that's exactly what it is.

Every so often BK has a really good deal that's hard to ignore so I buy from them only to realize why I don't eat there in the first place.

What does work and talent and effort have to do with it?

It's dishonest to say you're doing work when you're not doing work. We have a word for that: plagiarism.

If Elon wins this lawsuit I wonder if we should try going after Google for violating their "Don't be evil" agreement.

Iirc Microsofts work is based on Open AI, so this would likely effect that as well.

Could be horribly wrong, haven't kept on the news

Microsoft is an investor in OpenAI but the AI tech they use for copilot is proprietary.

Wasn't it some programming flaw?

A Dev's hand slipped and accidentally set the slider to maximum and they thought it was funny so they left it like that.

Wasnt the GoP in some states pushing for new laws allowing minors to work in dangerous jobs while also exempting employers from responsibility in case of accidents?

I don't think you can exempt away death.

That fine is like the maximum OSHA fine. The family of the kid is going to have to sue under wrongful death of a minor which is going to be pretty expensive in Alabama.

Oh yeah. Here's another one from the godlike Breath of Fire V soundtrack

Total jabroni move like everything he does nowadays.

He didn't trademark that stuff. It was already trademarked by WWE and he just took ownership of those rights.

housing was cheap 10 years ago so a ton of people moved there

10 years later, everyone finds out why housing was so cheap

I remember 15 years ago visiting friends in Florida like "holy crap I can buy a condo on the beach for $90,000!!!"

Glad I never did that.

Ohoho. The tables have turned now. I remember how conservatives kept talking about California having a supposed "mass exodus" because of terrible liberal leadership

It was actually always bullshit based on a cherry picked statistic where California has the most people moving out. This is because it's simply the most populated state so it will generally have more people doing any given task. It also has more people moving in than any other state.

I remember between twentyteen years old.

I threw a pizza box into the trash in front of a bunch of libs yesterday. One of them said in a shrill meek voice "you know you can recycle those?" And I just glared at him and in my deep masculine voice I said "yeah, I know" and walked away like there was an explosion behind me.

Just find a place that lets you upload a pic to print. Or better yet do it yourself on plain white T-shirts. Use a dye soak if you want a different color. Won't get any cheaper than that.

people think "Gen Z" and related terminology is science so this isn't much of a stretch.

I see "this will be Mark Hamill's last time voicing the joker" is increasingly having the same energy as "this is Miyazaki's last movie".

Miyazaki makes last movies because he's old and retired. Hamill doesn't want to do joker anymore because it doesn't feel right to him to do it without Conroy.
