Then what's the issue? If he doesn't then the person living with him should be doing the driving.

Unless they are also elderly and unable to drive safely. Then they should both be selling the farm and moving somewhere closer to town/services.

I had a phone with one on the back and currently have one with it on the screen. Personally I had absolutely no issues with its functionality in the screen and do prefer it over the back. I like that I can unlock my phone without having to pick it up off the desk or while its still in the mount on my vehicle dash.

Seems to work perfectly fine to me but maybe it's a quality issues with the brand of phones. Mine is a OnePlus and it's almost 4 years old now, still works fine and never had any issues.

As an ex-zookeeper, Yes, because of multiple reasons.

A) Seasonal vegetables are cheap and often donated B) Seasonal items increase social media activity. C) Seasonal items are typically in-line with natural cycles that align with wild animals.

There's literally no downside. Financial benefit, social benefit, and benefits to the well-being for the animal.

Yes I know, but I was just trying to put into the perspective the person I was replying to.

If only they let you filter out games from being seen on your store page or showing up in recommendations using this as a criteria.

Except the lifetime of the universe is quite small when compared to infinity, so it doesn't really convey how large infinity is because it's so much more.

Maybe because with Airbnb instead of renting out a house for $2000 a month to someone looking to live there they can rent it out for $1000 a week to tourists and double their profit.

I disagree with letting whales waste their money.

Video game design has changed to specifically cater to whales and ignore regular gamers.

It's no different than spending thousands on travel or hundreds to watch movies at the theater. You're paying for the experience and entertainment, not something physical.

I mean, it doesn't really matter if you don't think toddlers need realistic depictions, if it's running that means that toddlers are watching it or the parents of toddlers want realistic depictions.

What should they be watching? Superheroes? Other toddlers that behave like perfect angels? I'm sure there are enough other options out there, if they were watching those all the time then the realistic depictions wouldn't be on air still. I remember watching Caillou and that was like 25 years ago, so obviously it's probably doing something right.

That seems... Inefficient?

New Social media pops up every other year or so. Do they need to meet and vote to add new ones to the list every time?

Just trying to check "unread messages" despite no notifications indicating there are some, just to refresh the inbox and make sure there's nothing in limbo before notifications appear (not sure how the technicalities work).

If there are no new messages the app crashes. Can make it crash multiple times in a row. Works fine if there is a notification and unread messages present.

Had a hankerin'

And ya the egg was overdone ): that was disappointing.

 

Hi, me and my cousins had a good thing going for a long time playing Catan but we are looking to shake things up. We have played Catan regularly for over s year, but find that it's getting a little stale. We are looking for a game that requires a lot of strategy, planning, teamwork but also betrayal and backstabbing, yet also not take half an hour to set up and dismantle.

In Catan we love that the board changes every game and therefore the strategy, but found that once we got to the castles and knights expansion there was one strategy that beat out all the rest which sort of deflated the fun (first person to get science bonus seemed to win 90% of the time).

Any other board games out there for beginners that don't take forever to set up and put away? Not huge into role playing, but never say never I guess.
