I also hate avocado.

Not really. It depends on what it is. There are entire games and items that aren’t available in the US, but make a killing in Asia.

Like, here’s Genshin Impact numbers from 2023.

On that game, the US comes in at 7th, is less than half of the top country (Japan) and is notably behind Switzerland.

For Tik Tok specifically, we can look at their annual reports.

Let’s look at average annual users per region. 682M in Asia Pacific, which does not include China. 192M in North America.

China’s numbers are 750M daily.

I don’t think most of their money comes from the US.

Most American bread has sugar added to it, even the ‘healthy’ stuff.

When I was trying to switch to healthier breads, I tried a Pepperidge Farm bread once. It was so sweet, it was like eating brioche, but it was marketed as just normal standard bread. Absolutely disgusting. I don’t buy that brand anymore at all.

I honestly don’t know why anyone would buy a Bronco.

They’re completely synonymous with OJ Simpson to me.

I was so happy I could get my cat off of Purina.

I don’t know anyone who’s used IRC in the last fifteen years at least.

At least back when I used IRC, it wasn’t indexed either. It was just an alternative to AOL Instant Messenger or Yahoo Chat.

Can you link the solicitation or grant where people can apply for this?

You mean my house?

Depends what you’re into. CD sales are more than alive and well in the kpop/jpop circles and there isn’t a lot of vinyl to find there.

Indie games is really where it’s at right now.

On skimming, I’d thought it had something to do with the kpop group, BTS. They have a song called Louder than Bombs.

We got a Switch to play BotW.

I guess you had to grow up playing Zelda games after Link to the Past in order to enjoy the gameplay. Coming from other systems, it was very unintuitive, uncomfortable, and basically unplayable since we couldn’t remap the controls. Also, the world was just kind of dead?

I dunno, it was a big disappointment.

What do you need to know about the main game to play the DLCs that isn’t in the DLCs?

Isn’t indiegogo just like Kickstarter? There’s never a guarantee you’ll ever get the thing you back.

Yet my cat loves pumpkin and olives. Omg, will she go crazy for some pumpkin and olives.

I find it bizarre that someone would ever pigeonhole themselves into one developer. I don’t even know who makes games half the time. There’s only one that I have blocked on Steam.

Yeah, I recall Spielberg being sad he made that movie and put so much misinformation about sharks into the world, since the movie contributed to the decimation of the shark population.

Sounds like your cat is having digestive issues with their cat food. Switch to a different food.

So… rezone for residential, tear down, rebuild for residential…

I can only do a round or two before the particle effects hurt my eyes too much to continue. The new Among US DLC is really bad for that because you can get so many so early, and then extend for over an hour past the thirty minute mark. (That’s about when I got bored and tried to do everything I could so the red deaths would kill me, so I don’t know how long it would have gone).
