Dumb question, you full restarted the system already yeah?

I finally grabbed Subnautica and I’m loving it so far

Ah, you’re absolutely right. Sorry about that. I didn’t realize that apple removed it in the US

Depending on the US carrier you could have a physical sim too! And e sim is possible on some EU carriers. But generally speaking that’s right

The second Ori game’s story is so good and absolutely had me and my wife bawling during it

Wow, that’s very fast imo. Good for you!

Great randomizer out there for it. And it’s Archipelago compatible so you can mix it in with other randomizers alone or with friends, in case you want more!

They also introduced Watcher late. No guarantee the 4 characters here are the only characters

Ah I should be on a screen less, surely. Lots to doomscroll recently.

Your title is hilarious

Thank you!

Surely just mostly different keywords

In reality, you’re asking a VERY left part of the internet. Florida is a diverse and varied pla…

Nah just kidding, fuck Florida. Hawaii is incredible, too, and I’d really consider it if the budget allows. Also look at Bermuda, Bahamas, Puerto Rico

Our boss was like “I’m sure he’s mad but he’ll cool off” for way too long lol

We also worked some insane hours across many locations so it wasn’t abnormal to not see your office mates for weeks at a time

This is technically fired, but it’s more like quitting. It doesn’t perfectly fit this thread but I love telling this story.

A few months into my first real job, the engineers got their raises (not me, I was new). 0%, after record profits, the team busting their ass and working insane hours, and promises of good raises. I think they got some gift cards or something.

One of my coworkers goes back to his desk, packs some stuff, walks to his car, and doesn’t come back. He got paid for a full month before they finally fired him. We got a beer after and he was like “oh I don’t think I’m gonna go back” in the most Office Space way

Dumb question, did you fully power down and power up your Deck?

Learning the local word for sorry is really handy! I feel you, my partner and I struggle with the same sometimes. Most people everywhere are patient and polite, and want you to love their country!

Oh shit, you meant not to visit but to relocate to? I think I’d have a different set of answers for longer term; I was thinking for a vacation!

Yeah, lots of LGBT+ culture in Scandinavia, and a fair bit in the rest of western Europe (Paris, London, Zurich come to mind). Though I’ve spent plenty of time in eastern Asia (and lived near Shanghai), I don’t know that scene super well there. I did karaoke with a bunch of gay people in 道頓堀 in Osaka, and it was dope, but not much else.

If you’re looking for longer term living outside of NATO, I’d look to some Latin America countries, Oceania, and Switzerland.

If you’re looking to just visit, Japan, Scandinavia, most of western Europe are all very easy. A few places I’ve been are a lot harder language wise, and I don’t know that I’d wanna go right to the hard mode that is Shanghai if I hadn’t even left the states

I’ve got a few thoughts, as someone also playing on the lowest difficulty setting (cis ~straight white male, america. (Though ex patting in mere weeks, after years!)):

Japan is an incredible place to be a tourist. Learn a few phrases (すみません、ありがとうございます, etc) and a little culture, be respectful, mind your shoes and manners. You’ll do great, and there’s SO much to see and appreciate. It’s a brilliant culture and society, and so different in lots of ways. Very very safe.

Any Scandinavian country is VERY easy to visit as well. English speaking, easy to get to from the states. See how a proper society can function! (I am biased as a soon-to-be-Danish resident)

I’ll write more soon, dinner time for me

I loved the game. We put the soundtrack on all the time still. Great art form from Lucas Pope

I was hoping that’d be a Dan video. He has another one about how it’s Rude to Suck at Warcraft, which I found enlightening on how things have changed in WoW
