Well duh. I think a lot of us here learned that lesson from watching the movie Multiplicity.

You can't judge much of anything based on switch owners and third party availability of games.

Base skyrim isn't a bad game, but it's a game that no one would have talked about 2 years after it was released. Instead it's been 13 years and it's still ranking around 50th most played game this month.

Are you kidding me? There's been continents with professional voice acting and 40+ hours of gameplay added to Skyrim. More than once. Not to mention all the patches and tweaks and balancing and UI adjustments.

Skyrim would have fallen off the top 100 games on steam a literal decade ago without mods and fan made stuff. Instead it's still ranked like 50th.

A ton of things that come by sea doesn't matter much on time. Think about steel and vehicles and raw goods and all the other stuff that isn't direct to consumer. A month or so isn't a big deal in many cases.

The problem is that if my math checks out and what is written in the article is true, then this sail boats capacity is less than 1/4 of a single percent of the bigger fuel powered ships. You'd have to make and sail another 500 just to equal the capacity of 1 normal cargo ship.

" (The capacity of the ship, however, is much smaller than the largest modern container ships, which can hold more than 20,000 shipping containers; Anemos can carry around 1,000 tons of cargo on pallets.)"

Thanks for the crap comparison. Why would you use two different descriptions of cargo capacity that most readers could only vaguely compare?

I looked it up, and for the benefit of everyone else: it seems a fully loaded shipping container can weigh over 30 tons.

In other words, the sailboat can carry about 30 shipping containers worth of cargo. This is a lot less than I initially would have thought. A whole lot less. If the big fossil fuel cargo ships can do 20,000 loaded containers, that would mean the sailboat can only do what could practically be a rounding error. 0.15%

The real Bethesda fans will know the game is going to be wonky as hell when it comes out. Mods and fan fixes/tweaks are the real bread and butter. Bethesda just creates the world. The fans make it awesome.

Oh. This is /technology. I thought pants were about to go way up in price for a second.

Wow. 1000? I subscribe to like 10. Lol

I had a similar issue, but I google searched and found a setting I had to redo or change and it's worked fine since then. Afraid I don't remember what I had done. It was like a month ago and late, but it's been problem free for me.

Use them at no benefit to them. Obviously, don't buy yt premium.

I use Grayjay. Get it from the grayjay website and sideload it instead of through the apk store. Updates come quicker. It gives you commercial free YouTube, pretty much all the premium features, and let's you download vids.

I have had no pairing issues with anything since 5.0. Also, a good set of buds 5.2 or more doesn't have much lag. I wouldn't pc game with it, but beyond that it's good. Vlc let's you easily offset audio and whatever netflix does stays synced real nice for me.
