I think it’s a combination of nostalgia and the fact that SML1 had levels, enemies and music that were super unique compared to other Mario games before or after.
SML2 is a better game on the technical side of things but nothing in it blew me away or was memorable enough for me to recall with super clarity like I do with 1.
I’ll always prefer SML 1.
But I do fondly remember this.
This is why Star Wars is a fantasy series with sci Fi trappings and not sci fi.
18 billion yearly profit last I checked.
Not enough.
Never enough.
The rural population isn’t the issue, it’s suburbia which is where the majority of the US population lives.
It’s not dense enough for public transportation to be viable and it’s zoned in a way that makes pedestrian traffic a non starter.
Suburbia causes a lot of problems. I understand why it exists - owning a house with a yard is nice. I personally wouldn’t want to give that up to live in an urban environment if I didn’t have to
No one does that.
President has wide latitude in matters like this. Air strikes in this context are legal for him. He can even deploy troops as long as their deployment isn’t longer then 60 days.
Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.
Working long solo sessions of people leaving me the fuck alone tends to be correlated with me getting projects done.
I’m one of those older Trekkies who will complain about the aesthetic choices of the DSC sets.
My view is that there is a certain style with sci-fi shows of this nature that are part of their identity.
Large swings in design choices are very distracting to the point of being off putting to me unless there is good reason for it.
One thing I absolutely applaud Disney for is how they’ve managed to modernize but still keep the 70s aesthetics in their Star Wars shows. And I wish Trek had followed the same path.
Harry was a new ensign and they spent 7 years away.
Lt would probably have been the rank he would have had he had a ‘normal’ career at this point.
Good thing you aren’t making policy.
If your policy change is going to harm the less fortunate then you should re-evaluate the policy.
A land value tax just shifts those who can’t afford it out of their homes and hands more land over to the wealthy.
Land isn’t the problem with housing. The problem is that developers have figured out it’s more profitable to build fewer expensive properties than a large number of affordable ones. Not only do they have to do less work, but it keeps the market artificially low and so lets them charge more for what inventory they do have.
So they do just that.
And the residential development market has such a huge investment level to enter you won’t see many willing to roll the dice on mass producing affordable housing.
Show me a home builder who has plans which are less than 3k sqft these days. You won’t find one.
No way. That would fuck over way too many people who are just trying to live out their lives in the home they’ve built/purchased/inherited.
Essentially just the first season. The show was massively retooled after that because the executives felt the jokes went over people’s heads.
Well, money wise that was probably a good plan. I can’t see the show as it was in the first season running as long as the real show did or having the mass appeal it does.
Wouldn’t know, have ublock.
8gb of RAM? What year is this?
The shame is that the ending of Season 4 might be one of the most ’ Star Trek’ moments in the franchise. But the lead up to was so generic that many didn’t make it that far.
I’ve seen… Primer and Gattaca.
Nope.
