Is South Korea involved in any active combat (besides guarding the DMZ)? Or was he trying to avoid the training? I don't blame him either way, but it seems low reward for the high risk.

Having lived in Iowa, the number honestly feels a little low. I guess the soybeans have to grow somewhere.

It's been deleted, so I guess not.

That sounds even more stressful. Good luck!

How often are the batteries igniting like a Tesla? I'm very seriously considering getting an ebike before potential tarrifs, but I'm wondering if I should keep it in a shed or if I should charge it in our attached garage.

I currently have a Prius in the garage. I'd be comfortable if the stats are similar.

I've heard of cheap Temu/Wish ebikes blowing up, but I haven't heard about the safety of regular brands.

Resin dice, novels, 3D prints, paintings, video games, wooden furniture, RPG scenarios. I have way too many hobbies and maybe two hours per week to work on them, so in reality I create very little. But making something physical is incredibly helpful for keeping the worst of my depression at bay.

Is this an already published book? Or are you releasing it concurrently with the audiobook?

My issue with MH was the extensive grinding. Getting a full set of armor from a monster could take dozens of kills, with each kill being 30-60 minutes. If I knew I could get it after a flat 10 or even 20 victories it'd be fine, but you're at the mercy of 5% drop rates sometimes.

There are already a few notifications, banners, and pop-ups while presenting in Teams. If you're really lucky the presenter could instinctively click "Accept" without reading it, but it seems more likely they'd notice and verbally ask what you want it for.

Maybe they've never seen the original? It is a bit deep fried here, but that would still make me feel old.

Absolutely. My spouse looks at me like I'm crazy for putting black blankets on the floor in front of all the south-facing windows, but it's a noticeable difference in those rooms. I also keep the leftover pasta and kettle water out until it's cooled down instead of dumping hot water down the drain. Helps to avoid running the humidifier too.
