And also entirely natural
Only sometimes. I'm not too sure there's much natural about the average industrial city's sunset.

Though yeah, aesthetics is value in general. Good, bad, physical or not. Beauty is just a fraction of it.

Did you hear the one about the medical transport that exploded en route? Had one in south/central Florida a while back that left like a twenty foot crater in the road.

... and by one I mean multiple. Oxygen is some dangerous stuff. May what you're transporting just be caustic or somethin'.

To sell to people! Also some folks have trouble with that whole finding things online thing.

I'm sure that's something that a doppelganger would say, yes.

Probably? Hazmat is usually pretty mundane, so far as I'm aware... don't believe most of it would require the transporter to go under any sort of non-disclosure.

So are you going to admit to having now killed the original Bork and assumed their life, or will that be something denied going into the future?

Good for them, but they're still outperforming 90s/00s era porn webmasters in making their product repulsive. Hopefully with less identity theft but who knows.

Complaining doesn't actually get you a meal, after all. :P
Not yet, anyways. We have our top SJWs working on that, they're very good complainers, absolutely the best at getting something for doing nothing.
Pretty sure it's actually the various lobbyists that've got that on lockdown. And there's not really many of those coming out the social justice folks. They're third or fourth fiddle at best.

Not really sure who's doing the best on that front, though. Between power/resource extraction, the financial sector, the churches, military industrial stuff, and everything else, there's a lot of folks in the race to the bottom.

Mucking around a bit seeing if I could find anything interesting to play on the kindle, modern app wise. I... had not fully realized how brainfuckingly irritating mobile designers are implementing ads and whatnot these days. Distantly knew it was bad but holy shit. These buggers have somehow managed to outdo porn sites. The kind your browser gets redirected to when you doing something else and then spews popups all over the place, particularly common back before adblock was really a thing.

And there... there's probably a generation of people growing up now that sees this stuff as acceptable and normal, not something to immediately uninstall (and probably boycott the company as well) over. Poor bastards.

Eehh, sorta'. The steam version and stuff that's based off it apparently has some tweaks. Doesn't look like much done in the way of graphics improvement, though.

There was a remake/remaster announced last year as well, but it doesn't appear to be out yet. Also apparently is going to be more remake than remaster so it won't be quite the same.

Here, specifically. And yeah, it's not really offensively bad or anything, but it's not something I'd buy for more than five bucks, if that. You can see how it's trying or the paths it could take to be good-ish but right now it's just kinda' mediocre at its best (save maybe on the aesthetics front) and fairly irritating to play a fair chunk of the rest of the time. Wouldn't recommend at the moment, particularly for what they're asking for it.

I'unno, plenty of us seem pretty good at those two, too.

Or go ogre, ehehe. No need for shortstaves then, and the power reduction is trivial in the face of zonking huge +% damage, heh.

Mind you, procs are still a good reason to have a staff in your hands. Outside of maybe some of the actives (want to say something in the ambush tree has some melee projection?), though, I can't recall SBs having anything besides shadow combat so far as staff-accuracy boosted talents go. You're still perfectly able to stack that sort of thing via equipment if you particularly feel like using it, of course.

Though yeah, if an SB goes staff, it's almost certainly not for the proc damage boost. Near as I can remember at the moment, I think the only class that does primarily for that is arcane blades. Maybe reavers, but even they generally do it more for the % element boost than the proc damage one. Good few classes that definitely appreciate the improvement but not many that focus on it.

I don't watch much American television so I'm not entirely sure if this is common.

I mean, the last time I saw something so ridiculous on television was a Japanese car commercial that used the intro song of an H-game.
It's more or less business as usual for entertainment news. I'd say in the US but as far as I know it's pretty standard for most countries.
