Not only expensive considering the exchange rate, but that's an averageish entire month's salary for the majority of the country, big cities excepted. Steam Deck, don't fail me now!
Have you considered the possibility that aggressively interjecting pronoun arguments into unrelated conversations and implying people are shitty and out of touch is eroding public support for trans rights?
The soundtrack really is fantastic...I spent many an hour as a kid listening to it in the jukebox mode with its super groovy visualizations!
Tyrian is still fantastic 30 years later!
Here's the EGS link so nobody else has to get cancer from that article
I had looked into it but given this response it's not looking likely.
I test drove Heliboard the past week and I quite liked it, especially the customization options. I've been trying to escape Gboard for years but viable options with swipe typing support are few and far between.
Unfortunately, the lack of Japanese input makes it a total non-starter for my use case so I had to go crawling back.
I hate to be "that guy", but have you not been keeping up with what they've been doing to Gazan hospitals? I'm sure they'd be happy to try chucking some of those jars with their artillery.
It's a fairly common type of cat toy...
I think it's pretty hard to go wrong with any of the 8BitDo stuff and there are so many variations to suit different tastes and hands. I've been using an SN30 (modernized SNES style) across PC, Switch, and Deck and it's the best controller I've ever owned. Outlasted my now-drifty Switch Pro controller and two pairs of Nintendo's inexcusably shitty OEM joycons. Small, light, comfortable, gets good battery life, and connects reliably. Has everything a person needs for modern games, unless you need analog triggers for something.
The US would rather try to pin mass shootings on social media platforms than address the core issues that might destabilize their status quo sociopolitical puppet show, which could set an incredibly dangerous precedent. I wouldn't be surprised if some money happened to find its way into the right pockets to try the same thing on behalf of the poor poor megacorps' "lost sales" in the near future.
Posting US tax code like it's the only country in the world and using it as a basis to say something about a Japanese company could be construed as ludicrous, could it not?
And you choose drugs or guns for your example? Again, JAPAN.
Japanese bonuses are heavily taxed and highest salary periods can have big implications on how much one has to pay into the national pension system. The way taxes are paid in arrears can also very easily put people in difficult positions if they aren't financially responsible and happen to suddenly lose their jobs.
Of particular interest is the extreme size discrepancy between male and female in this species. This was also one of the largest females I've ever seen!
From today's chapter of "Nature, You Freaky" comes this fungally parasitized cicada I found today. I'm far from any kind of mycologist or parasitologist so if anyone's got more information I'd love to hear. It's almost beautiful, in a horrifying sort of way.
See no weevil, hear no weevil, speak no weevil
Sometimes you can't decide between beauty and horror, so you just walk the line!
I think it's safe to say she'll be eating well tonight.
I recently came across this lovely(?) crab spider on a birding excursion. The bird-dropping spiders of Phrynarachne are apparently not only visual but also olfactory mimics, for all intents and purposes attempting to fool both predators and prey. Apologies for the slightly subpar image quality; I didn't have my macro lens and had to improvise.
Gene Simmons has nothing on these gals. Possibly Eucera spurcatipes?
Not sure which is longer, the name or the bug.
Not sure of the exact species, possibly Cassida japana.
