I'd rejoice, but I'll believe it when I see it happening consistently. I want smaller, denser, and richer worlds. Not giant, sprawling, and barren. It doesn't add anything to a game for me if I have to walk or drive 10 minutes to get to my next location and it's just empty in between.

I watched his video doing a walkthrough of the damage yesterday. It's really sad. Not just his collection of all this stuff that he is so passionate about, but his whole house. So much damage caused by nature. I hope he's able to get things back to semi-normal soon.

In my experience, it's a lot of music that I already know I like. I don't feel like I get much given to me that I wasn't already aware of. With Pandora, you create stations that are based off of a specific band or song. If you are listening to a Rage Against the Machine station, you're going to definitely hear Rage Against the Machine and then stuff that is similar. What I do is put it on shuffle for a group of selected stations and that gives me what I want.

I'm in the 23% on the American side of the chart that uses Pandora. I don't see any reason to switch. I've been working on it knowing my preferences for like 20 years now.

In addition to things others have said in reply, maintaining eye contact is a direction given in speech and leadership classes. Looking at someone you are talking to shows interest, engagement, and respect. It would be weird in a different way if you were speaking to someone and just staring at their hands or staring off into space. It's not that there are two options, but if you're having a conversation with someone, it's normal to be looking at them.

I actually do this as well because I've been told so much about guys looking at boobs when talking to women. I make extra effort to keep eye contact. So because of that I've been told "it's intense." That's from people that know me so that is probably the polite version.

Hoopla is for library systems. We are rising up against public libraries now? I don't understand that and Tubi being on this. They are both free.
