Well, brightside is it saves you a few thousand dollars on renouncing your citizenship. It isn't a cheap or easy process normally.

Haven't done either.

Good to know, may gave it a shot later and see. Cheers

Does this hold up pretty well if you've never seen any star wars? I have heard good things but usually from people who have consumed star wars content for like 20 years.

The absolute easiest way for me in general is Stremio + a Debrid service (ala Real-Debrid). Not only is it super safe and simple, but the UI of Stremio is way more user friendly than most actual streaming platforms.

Admittedly there is a fee for a debrid service, but it pays for itself in about 45 minutes.

We all know that to be truly free, you must be free of the evils of literacy and uh...education. That's why America is so free with their 21% illiteracy rate! That is 21% more freedom!

If I had 700k in savings I could probably retire right now, nevermind when I was 67.
Says he still has an outstanding mortgage, but how much could he possibly have left to pay off??

I feel we have been hovering right around there for a while now.

Look, I fully understand this is a case of doing a good thing for probably the wrong reasons/by accident, but yoooo I will take it.

But man, the easy pickings for Shit Reactionaries Say will be gone.

I have about the same position on this. A lot (though not all) of these people are insufferable, though we don't have nearly as many in my country as the US does. Being annoying on the internet is, thankfully, not something people get deported for however.

Nor does it mean I wish them death, which is likely what would happen if they were sent back. Their death and a prolonging of a war that is just going to kill even more.

Surely they don't actually think NATO is an equal partnership between them and the US, right?

US speedrunning driving their economy into the ground. I would be curious to see if this is just a momentary blip or actually some kind of long running sanction.

There are so many things I get from China that I would be missing out on if I were in the US. Nevermind the most simple things like care packages for people living overseas.

 

That is really all I have to say, but Astrobot is just one of the most delightful games I have played in years. Nothing deep or life-changing, just pure simple fun. Very much in the Nintendo school of design philosophy, but I enjoy it more than anything Nintendo has put out recently.

Looks visually great, fantastic music, and a lot of interesting mechanics that never overstay their welcome. They are still the only studio who has really leveraged all the PS5 haptics well too. My partner won't let me play it by myself because she just enjoys watching it that much.

Basically, if you have a PS5 I strongly recommend it.
