If you don't test for it, it WILL rear its ugly head again.

TIL Bananas are berries that grow on giant herbs in c/til@lemmy.world

Anecdotal, but I've seen banana plants push out leaves vertically nearly that fast at their peak growth. Each leaf can be close to 6ft long, maybe longer. They shoot straight up out of the top of the plant when they come out, so they do temporarily add that much height.

When the leave gets completely pushed out, it unfolds and leans to the side and in the end only adds a foot or less to the full height.

Not sure if that counts, but they are fun plants to have. I'm in Midwest America... so you don't have to be in a tropical area to grow them, but we do have to cut it down every year and cover it in mulch and leaves to protect it.

Our biggest gets to 16-18ft tall every year. One of it's children we've given away is a bit bigger.

You have nothing to be ashamed of. Ep III has some issues, but it is still amazing and one of the most important movies. I have it in my top 2.

Bionic Commando (2009) really is that bad in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

I loved the Gameboy game by a similar name but never tried any other versions, figuring it wouldn't translate well. Sounds like I was right.

To this day, the only thing that has scratched my swinging itch since I was that young kid has been the insomniac Spiderman games.

What gameplay systems or game mechanics do you enjoy? in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Haven't gotten back around to the Ultimate Alliance games yet, but I recently picked up the XMen Legends games that preceed them on the OG Xbox.

Still quite a bit of fun.

I actually found and picked up Midnight Sons when I was looking on the PS store to see if those games had been ported.

I love Midnight Sons. It's very similar in a lot of ways but the gameplay is quite different. I'm told it's like XCom games by the same company, but I've never played that.

Interacting with your team back at base is definitely bigger than in XMen legends, and for some gamers it was too much... a bit of 'friendship simulator' to it to increase team chemistry etc.

The gameplay is card based. I recommend looking up a video if curious. It's not for everyone, but those who love it really love it. Count me as one of them.
