My old workplace's timecard system used dropdowns for hours and minutes for every day. Took like 10 minutes to fill out for the week. It was awful.

Wouldn't the opposite be Jesus's mother? In other words… Mary is the anti-Christ?!
My favorite (probably inaccurate) point about the name "Jesus Christ": the name "Christ" means "anointed one", as you said. People were generally anointed by having oil poured on their head. "Jesus" is just contemporary form of the name "Joshua". So in another life, "Jesus Christ" could literally be translated as "Oily Josh".
Oh good. Now they’re literally paying the karma-farming bots to spam recycled and stolen content. That will surely end well.
I’m extremely surprised that the number is only 95%.
Cultist Simulator is pretty unique… not necessarily in a good way. It’s a storytelling/puzzle game with some great writing if you can power your way through the gameplay. The mechanics are deliberately very obtuse, with no tutorial, to emulate the fact that diving into the occult is confusing and dangerous. The end result is that the game is very unique and cool, but it’s absolutely not for everyone. TL;DR on the basic mechanics: you have a handful of verb boxes, such as Talk or Research, as well as various cards that you can slot into them. Each card has a variety of tags on it. Depending on which cards with which tags you put into the various verb boxes, you get different results.

I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s just a couple missions before the end. You have a choice to either fight Cinder Carla (siding with Ayre) or to fight the corps (siding with Carla). I sided with Carla, which made Ayre the final boss, and the fight was godawful. My understanding is that there are maybe more endings with NG+, but I’m trying to muster up the will to bother even turning the game on again after how atrocious the Ayre fight was.
Honestly, Armored Core VI. Endgame spoilers below (idk if there’s a way to do spoiler tags?).
The final boss is absolutely godawful. Just utter garbage. It took me hours, and I hated it from my first attempt. It’s categorically different from anything else in the game, and there’s never a point where it’s fun. Probably 20% of my total playtime was on this one boss. I was absolutely loving the game up until then, but that one boss is so unbelievably poorly designed that it ruined the entire game for me. It’s genuinely impressively horrible.
So we’re keeping the reddit trend of posting any tabloid-level “headline” about Musk as if it’s technology news?
And if you don’t, then the problem has still resolved itself!
Jack-in-the-Box is the only place that has caused me to throw out a milkshake because it was so bad. A milkshake. Those are, what, two ingredients? Somehow they managed to fuck it up so bad, it came out nasty. I wouldn’t eat there again if it was free.
The case involved a grain buyer sending out a mass text to drum up clients and a farmer agreeing to sell 86 tons of flax for around $13 per bushel. The buyer texted a contract agreement to the farmer and asked for the farmer to “confirm” receiving the contract. He issued a thumb’s up emoji as receipt of the document, but backed out of the deal after flax prices increased.
The buyer sued the farmer, arguing that the thumb’s up represented more than just receipt of the contract. It represented an agreement to the conditions of the contract, and a judge agreed, ordering the farmer to cough up nearly $62,000, likely causing a string of puke emojis.
What a bunch of horseshit. I can see a thumbs-up emoji being used as an explicit sign of confirmation, but even in the context, the farmer never indicated any willingness to sign the contract. Receiving a contract and signing a contract are two entirely different things.
The theological answer, as I learned it, is most clearly spelled out in James 2:14-26, often referenced through the phrase “faith without works is dead”. The short version is: faith in Jesus will save you, not good deeds. However, if you have faith in Jesus, then that faith will manifest itself through good deeds. If someone proclaims their faith but doesn’t act lovingly, then they don’t actually have faith and won’t be saved. So a Christian should be a good person not because being good will save them, but because being good is a result of genuine faith.
I really wanted to like Sakuna, but I just… couldn’t. The platforming combat is really stiff, and the game is pretty bad at explaining mechanics. Oddly enough, I found the rice farming to be the most interesting part! Unfortunately, rice farming is essentially just there to provide buffs for the platforming, so I stopped playing after about 10 hours.
If it’s merely life-threatening, then I’ll wait for an Uber.
Celeste. Not much to say except that it’s a fantastic little platformer.
