@JBert this is only at all late in a near-real-time area, and even where I live allows up to a 5-year lag. Unless you live in a dense residential portion of a city of more than 2.5 million people, you are offset by some years. And you only even get the real current year in Tokyo.
We must never allow for this fact in any sort of government, as it would spoil the fun.

Don't worry. Your affection for the prior incarnation of the show is based on your recollections, after all - recollections formed during happier times. Pap being pap, the show contributed nothing - it's you that have gotten worse - it'll be just as good as ever it was.

@Gribnit the sad reality is that I felt no affinity for the show, merely living and enjoying vicariously through the enjoyment of the show by others that, sadly, I no longer speak to.

As is ever the case in such matters. Well, as I always say, if your eyes aren't bleeding you're not looking properly.

That's a very pretentious headline.
You can communicate with your cat with … everything you do, really—she's watching you. And the slow blink gesture, and its meaning, have been known for quite a while too.

Anyone having Low Quality Concrete on their 2022 Bingo cards?
Just some windmills have to be demolished, after one of them just collapsed due to its concrete base.
From the FAZ, in German:

@BernieTheBernie Not to forget: there was a railway accident in south bavaria, and then they found out that the concrete railway ties were to blame:
Süddeutsche Zeitung, in German:
What's next with our industrial decay?
-
@BernieTheBernie my brother had to shut down his kebab stand because meat quality dropped so much people were complaining all the time.
Kebab is already low quality to start with. And it dropped even more. To the point people didn't want a kebab. Allow that washbasin to enter.
-
No word on impending bumper cases for the new cards...

Houses being left standing in the middle of a new highway, because the owner refused to sell his apartment dirt-cheap?
Because that happened in China once. and I associate bad concrete with Chinese highway-building. So whatever comes next, I expect that also to have been experienced in China at least once already.

perhaps the best PC game ever
There are a few rules and principles we stick to. Firstly, this is not a list of the most important PC games—you can find those here(opens in new tab). Rather, these are our picks of the best PC games to play right now. How influential a game was doesn't matter. How much we enjoyed playing it at the time is not our concern. The simple question, always, is: does this hold up today?
Secondly, we want to celebrate the breadth and variety of PC gaming. To that end, we limit ourselves to one game per series. Sorry Half-Life 2, but if Half-Life: Alyx is in the list, you can't be too.
The most important principle of all: this is our subjective list. If the people on our team aren't advocating for it, we're not going to include it. And if newer members of the team add the weight of their support behind a game, we're going to push it higher up the list.
So not the best PC game ever at all, but the "best" pc game right now.

My money is on kilowatt supplies been the norm at the mid to high-end by the end of 2025 for a PC. I'll probably still be playing dark souls on a toaster.

Ashen
ash·en 1 (ăsh′ən)
adj.- Consisting of ashes.
- Resembling ashes, especially in color; very pale: A face ashen with grief.
Dark soul not found.

@HardwareGeek Leave your toaster on for too long and "consisting of ashes" might just happen.
Also:
- Recently visited by a certain 93% peaceful asshole with loathsome values.

Sounds like a horrific place to work.
