Increasing traffic surveillance to automatically ticket scofflaws who block bus lanes, and deploying police officers to enforce rules on 20 daily routes, up from 14.

Good. Anti social assholes blocking bus lanes (and bike lanes) need to be stopped. They probably have a primitive moral reasoning framework, so maybe punishment is the only thing that understand.

I recently reopened Witcher 3, and was kind of surprised by how the graphics aren't as lifelike as my memory. I remember being a lot more impressed by the bodies when it was new.

It's all in-group pandering and shitty petro-masculinity. No conservatives should be in power. They are bad people.

I really disliked how leveling up made you weaker. Things scaled with your level faster than the stat gains empowered you. Completely stupid design.

The card game is also too rewarding and too obscure. Without a guide, you'd never catch on to stuff like "lose this card to this unnamed person, then win a better version back from this other unnamed person". Also various "everything is on fire! You wanna play cards?" moments really hamper the pacing and tone. But you want to play it, because it gives a ton of power.

Discouraging you from actually using magic was an interesting experiment, but I don't think it was fun. Maybe it could have been rebalanced, but as-is you just stocked up on magic for the stats.

I don't remember the story very well. I remember getting locked out of a lot of content because I went past a point of no return without realizing it.

Good. Break them up. Criminally charge their leadership.

Fuck Microsoft. It's easy to not buy their shit. I've been doing it all day.

Break up Facebook

I also don't have a lot of money for fun because no one is hiring because all the psychotic C-suite think AI is going to replace everyone. Or they think they can just squeeze labor harder and use AI as an excuse.

But either way, fuck Microsoft.

Ed Zitron wrote a whole thing about these people. Calls them "Business Idiots"

Conservatives just say things for the intended result. They don't care about facts or truth or internal consistency. They're like cognitohazards.

What do you call the action of putting their grades together like this, without the sentences you put after it? (this is the most important question of this comment).

Why are you stuck on "cannot" when the point of the idiom is about the (repeat pun) fruitlessness of comparing things by inappropriate standards?

You clearly can come up with a way to score a math test by the standards of an art class, but that is not typically a useful endeavor.

I've never heard that expression before, but that's pretty good.
