Nonsense, LOTR has been sold as a single volume for a long time now. I have the 50th anniversary edition, which is a single physical book.

Probably The Lord of the Rings. I read the entire thing almost ten years ago, and only remember bits and pieces. It’s so long that I could definitely read it multiple times and still learn new information every time I read it.

As long as you have at least one straight white male character that isn’t treated like a joke by other characters you should be fine 👍

3. The joy of “figuring it out” and customizing everything you want to the minutest details

Customization is my reason. I’ve got a two-monitor setup in KDE with different panels on each one. Each one is highly customized specifically to me, and the customizations can’t be done in Windows.

It’s easy if you can follow directions, hard if you don’t have directions, impossible if you don’t have directions and don’t know what you’re doing; archinstall is effortless.

Well, I have freckles all over the place, so my pattern was chosen already.

Because if you have a Kroger’s card you’re going to want to shop there more often to get the free stuff. You’re not paranoid, it is a psychological tactic to get you to spend more money. Casinos do similar things.

I’ve had good experiences launching games from Epic on the Heroic Games Launcher. Most games that don’t have extreme anti-cheats should just work. If compatibility is an issue, you can install Linux as a dual-boot option, so you could switch to Windows for certain games.

I started with OpenShot Video Editor for it’s ease of use in being able to cut parts of a clip out. But it was very slow, and now I’d reccommend Kdenlive.

What if the helmet had a camera that projected it’s view along with the hud? You might lose some depth perception but at least you could see the road while looking at the HUD.

I’d reccomened fine-tuning your own custom preset. Two things are important for quality, both in the Video tab of the GUI: the Quality slider and the speed of the Encoder. You can read about these in the Handbrake documentation: https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/1.7.0/workflow/adjust-quality.html

The Brain Age series on Nintendo DS was based on the work of Dr. Ryuta Kawashima; the games are designed to activate the player’s prefontal cortex to improve brain functions.

Whatever the most poisonous mushroom is

I’m sad every time I find a well-made video, want to subscribe, then discover the video is two years old and the channel never uploaded anything else.

I had this problem for awhile, eventually I said enough and turned off shader pre-caching. Never noticed a difference in performance.

Yes, miso- is also a prefix.

I had an English essay assignment senior year of high school that I didn’t want to do. I looked through my old essays (never used to delete things) and found one that was almost the same prompt, so I thought “screw it” and changed the date/class name and submitted that. I didn’t give much thought to it, but every teacher used the same essay plagiarism checker, and my essay got flagged as being previously turned in. The teacher pulled me aside in class and gave me a lecture about plagiarism and why I can’t submit other people’s work, so I told her to check the name on the original essay because it was mine. Once she realized I had “plagiarized” myself, she let it go but told me I had to redo the assignment anyway because I “can’t re-submit old work”.
