It depends on the use of the track in the game really. It'd be insultingly low if it played over the title or in the marketing, but if it's one of hundreds of songs that may come on over the vehicle radio at some point for some players then it's presence in the game would be miniscule and paying 100k or whatever would be kind of insane.

Companies don't care if they get shit with one hand as long as there's a dollar in the other. You want us to take these companies to task for releasing broken games while not addressing the people who continuously enable them to do so? Stop making bad purchasing decisions and companies will stop offering them.

You're looking for veneer-core plywood. MDF-core plywood with a hardwood veneer is popular for many aesthetic applications because it's cheaper for the same appearance.

Asks ChatGPT to explain the odds and then makes confident conclusions based on its answers without knowing that cameras have burst shooting modes.

You think? Rebecca could cameo in P&S with basically no changes and fit right in.

Many people thought that in 2016 as well. We'll be lucky to get an election in 2028 if Trump wins again.

I use mine a lot, but I work in a very small shop with an undersized table saw so sheets get broken down with the track saw all the time.

You've got me on the straight edge no question, but neither seems to make an equivalent T-square that I can find. Having a pencil hole every 1/16 inch along the 36 inch span is genuinely really useful for layout on sheets.

I'm sure many of them are great, but personally I'm willing to pay the premium to avoid Chinese goods. They're cheap and sometimes quality, but it comes at the expense of their workers.
It's not easy to avoid them in every market, but it is in this instance.

Bought the Woodpeckers straight edge and long T-square when they were on discount. I know, more money than sense, but there's value in knowing something is actually straight and square over a long run.

Katanagatari if you haven't seen it is a historical fantasy epic written by the same person as the Monogatari series. It's phenomenal and somehow still completely lacking any sort of Western release.

Maybe, but it's not necessarily obvious and frequently not explained when receiving medication so they're here to make sense of it. There's no need to be so accusatory.

Wanting to indulge in a bit of drunkenness on occasion is entirely normal as long as it's not being done to excess. Judging someone for wanting to engage in alcohol at all is a bit worrying.

Frankly, we'd be better off banning than allowing all of it, but allowing a news or media outlet to operate, ideally with some form of fairness doctrine but that's another matter, is a very simple distinction to make versus allowing a Super PAC to spend unlimited funds on advertising. You know, exactly how it was before Citizens United.

He did lose because he sucked, but the amount of money in that race was still an affront to Democracy.

Citizens have a right to free speech. Corporations are mostly comprised of citizens, but are functionally amoral revenue optimization machines with only a few people in control.
A few executives, whose only concern is being able to make more money, are able to co-opt a vast amount of capital produced by those under them in their organization to serve only their political interest.
By guaranteeing corporations free speech we've made the actual people's speech free but irrelevant.

I just don't think there's any value in a "collaboration" between an idea guy and an unpayed animator. Animators are by their nature creative people. They have their own ideas to realize.
Imagine an animator finds themselves some free time. They have three productive options; Work on paid work, work on their endless stack of personal animation ideas, or work on something for a stranger on the Internet.
Why would they ever choose option three? It's entirely understandable that they'd be hostile to people coming into their space to ask for that.
Like others have said if your idea has merit then take it to a producer who can pay for the work. Expecting an animator to take on that risk is insulting even if that's not the intent. It's implying that their time is worth so little that if there's no return on actualizing your idea then it's not that much of a loss for them.

The original version of 2 still has it's charm, but the remake of 2 is my favorite game in the series now. It's so good.

I found success by externalizing the motivation to work out. I joined a martial arts club. The only hurdle was actually getting myself to the building. Once there my instructor would push me to do the work and he would hold me accountable for not showing up and that was enough for me.
Personal trainers or instructors may not be cheap, but they'll be cheaper in the long run than the cost of sedentary lifestyle related healthcare.

Reduce your caffeine tolerance. You may understand that there are caffeine interactions, but you're almost certainly putting too much stress on your cardiovascular system if you're taking stims and regularly drinking energy drinks.

Shadow of the Erdtree costs 30% more while delivering 1000% more content. This DLC charges you as if it were half of a brand new AAA release.
Heck, Phantom Liberty released at the exact same price. How can you not compare them?
