And as we all know, if the military goes without approved funding limits, it completely breaks down and becomes useless overnight.

Sure would be nice if every single citizen of the united states gets to personally bitch slap every member of congress, presidential cabinet, vp, pres, etc... When a completely unrelated thing gets shoved into a bill.
There is 0 reason an (hypothetical) infrastructure bill for new sprinklers in hospitals needs to include a provision that Wisconsin dairy farms get a new milking machine. Those two things have nothing to do with each other. So why are they in the same bill.
If you want it to be a bill, put it in its own separate proposal.
My favorite part of control is how they go into juuuuuuust a little bit of explaining how things work in a science way, and sometimes you can almost feel how things are connected, and then it's like "Yeah we have no fucking clue how any of this actually works, we're just trying to keep it all from destroying the universe and keeping notes along the way."
And then you meet the next thing that almost makes sense. Until it doesn't.
I don't remember if I ever finished AW but I do believe I have the disk around here somewhere. The control dlc definitely rekindled my interest.

Look, there's a reason you can wire almost any heavy machinery into any random console or wall panel... When you run this much power to every station, exploding panels are gonna happen.
It's either that, or we run our ships like Vulcans, and that's just boring.
My parents don't have flood insurance, but they live on a hill that's about 150ft above the surrounding fields, and roughly 200-250ft above the closest waterway. If their house floods, then society has effectively collapsed in their state.
My sister and in-laws, however, all live within eyesight of the closest river or stream, and maybe 25-50ft above water level inside valleys. My wife's sister's house has had water get up to about 10ft away from the house, and STILL nobody has flood insurance.
SOME people can get away with it. Most can't and don't even realize it.
Control was great
I love games that make me think outside the box
Not even a little. I went out in shorts and a t-shirt for about an hour, exchanged banal pleasantries with family until my anxiety got the better of me and I had to leave, sat in a room with no windows watching old shows and snacking, and am waiting until exhaustion allows me to sleep a couple hours until I go to work on one of the two days remaining on my schedule. After that I might not have any work for months unless I can find something close by that doesn't make me legitimately contemplate things. I have a broken tooth, some kind of respiratory thing going on, and an unmentionable medical issue that really needs to be seen by a doctor but I can't afford one and my government insurance was denied because I made a couple thousand more this year than last year.
On the bright side, my truck is finally working again and assuming the now-slowly-leaking-while-on fuel pump doesn't catch a spark before I can afford to have it replaced I don't have to share a car this week. Which is nice.
Damn, here I thought I was going to be original for once...

Hmmm. Making threats? Of a political nature in order to coerce change?
In my neck of the woods, we call that "domestic terrorism", but they freely admit that to the world:
Having owned a couple low end printers, the ender 3 is my favorite budget option.
I've installed a couple upgrades, some of which I 3d printed on the printer itself, but my favorite ones are the borosilicate glass bed with a thermal pad to help spread out the heat quickly, and a dual z axis stepper motor.
If you're not into tinkering, I've heard good things about Bambu, although I do not know much about them myself. Apparently they're more user-friendly.
I enjoy working on my devices, but I would like something with more reliability than "recalibrate everything for every single print" sometimes.
It really is a hobby where spending just a little bit more will get you a ton of extra features and user experience.
Yes, but now they can't say they didn't know it was in there.
And they can't say "I voted for it because the rest of the bill does good for _____"
So it would help prevent them from keeping their mask on
