What? Some of the most well known and highly rated books are in the public domain.

That’s a good point actually… whenever you see them in any UK supermarket it tends to just be egg mayo by itself (and always on brown bread for some reason). Or egg & cress like you say.

OR you might see an all day breakfast sandwich with egg mayo, sausage and bacon.

One of these

In the UK at least, the filling is called egg mayonnaise. In the US/Canada it seems to be called egg salad

Oh that’s grim :(

I’ve definitely been put off coleslaw after a spoiled portion at a Topgolf place gave me food poisoning

It seems overly symbolic, like something you’d see in a heavy-handed sci-fi novel. I don’t doubt that implants like this will become a common thing in the future, but it’s unlikely they’ll be quite so overt.

What exactly does the symbol on his forehead mean?

This is definitely a controversial take, but maybe there’s some truth to it. (A price hike like $90 Mario Kart is way too much however). I think the issue here is that purchasing power has decreased for the majority of people over the last few years as inflation has increased whilst wages have not kept pace. And it really doesn’t help when triple A games increase their prices whilst releasing in a buggy state - people don’t see any benefit of a $10 increase to that game when it doesn’t offer $10 more value than it would have done a year prior.

Sure, corporations need to recoup the high cost of development - but then perhaps their costs wouldn’t be nearly as high if they didn’t pay millions to their CEOs. Indie devs can successfully put out (usually much more interesting and creative) games for a fraction of the cost.

Can you beat something that is already dead to death?🤔

I guess the headcrabs are alive still

Can confirm

When it comes to rating products, it seems like there’s an expectation to give 5 stars. I guess because there’s a sense of not only rating the product, but also the seller - and you’d feel guilty not giving full marks if the product arrived ok and did what it was advertised to do.

In terms of movies/books/games, 4 stars is my default for a piece of media I really enjoyed. 5 stars I’d only give to stuff I believe is near perfect. If I see a book that averages 3.8 to 4 stars online I know it’s gonna be great. Anything beyond that is either incredible, or just hasn’t had enough reviews yet!

Yeah probably a good shout :)

Oh yippee! I kickstarted this a while back. Now, should I request the key for my Switch or Steam Deck?

Metal Gear Solid 2

Actually, I am in really bad shape financially. I pay money to my ex-wife as part of our divorce settlement, among other bills… I just had no choice but to make you pay for lunch the other day. I’m really sorry.

I hear it’s amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara Kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!
