I run 1440p capped at 75fps and cannot see a noticeable improvement with higher resolutions or framerates (my hardware is capable and I’ve tried).

Mine, too, and when he doesn’t I ask him to do it. Literally shaves ten years off my face.

Our post office was closed for the entire day on Tuesday. No reasons given. Normally, about three to four people work there.
One customer scribbled something about Deutsche Post’s disdain for its customers on the notice. But I’m afraid we are going to have to get used to this kind of thing.

That’s because we get unmatched most of the time if we don’t steer the conversation this way. Then again, maybe most men who try this approach get unmatched as well; I’ve only ever tried writing friendly, interested messages.

Mr. Schubert? Is this you?
My first department head during my apprenticeship had a mug like that for his Coke Light. Takes me back a quarter of a century. Damn, I’m getting old.

Have you tried Two Point Hospital? It’s the same thing, just better. Even has the insane PA announcements from Theme Hospital.

Ads are a brainwashing technique designed to turn my baser instincts against myself for someone else’s gain. And they’re unwanted content that disrupts the flow of the content I’ve chosen to watch.

I would be inclined to agree with you, except that the simulation is one of the weakest parts of the second game.
But also part one did not have the same ludicrous number of game-breaking bugs on release.
CS2 has gotten better for sure, and will keep doing so over time, but I’ve given up on wanting to buy it because it seems fundamentally worse than its predecessor.
If they ever add DLCs for true simulation of the economy and for showing fire, police, and ambulance crews at work as well as re-adding bicyclists I might reconsider.

Almost Looks like a Page out of the Constitution (or pretty much Any Text from that era).
Perhaps they’re harkening to that.

Ah, Frikandel then? Sorry, I was thinking about Austria, where Bosna is a similar snack. But yeah, swamp German should have tipped me off. 😅

Bosna?

#1 looks like it’s for kids.
#3 & #4 aren’t dry-fined enough.
A cross between #2 (weird end) & #5 (weird tip) would be perfect. In fact, I think mine at home is like that (on vacation right now so can’t check).

YES.

Just for the record, I didn’t downvote you. I think that would be unkind.
And I hope you can forgive my joke; you’d be surprised how little the average European knows about the history of Iran.

Everyone knows
Yes, everyone knows that if Gudenni, the Prince of Hadenach had just married Essane, the Princess of Hawali, all the bloodshed could have been avoided. Instead, they formed the Caliphate of Ultigo and their iron-fisted rule led to the siege of Khobenar, which left their kingdom in ruins.
Or maybe you overestimate everyone’s knowledge. 😉

Eh, I liked Far Cry 3’s poker minigame better. Or, from memory, RDR1.
Yes, the atmosphere is great. But te stacks are just so low, players give little action, and the overall game flow is glacial in RDR2.
