Oh Jesus.

Maybe I should try it again...

Yes, I recall there was a FFXV quest in Origins and for it to be like that... hahaha.

Fixing one typo seem to have fixed Aliens: Colonial Marines Xenomorph's AI a bunch. Granted it doesn't make the game even an okay buy but if you have it on PC, you can try to enjoy it by having some challenge to your playthrough. Not like how it is previously where you could seriously run through entire levels

Let this saga of not knowing when Sen III and IV are coming over be over by Christmas...

I had the GMG email silenced because I didn't do that thing back in June. Oops.

FINALLY

Ao/Azure TL patch from Guren is out in the wild now. It's the one from February and before a final editing pass. I think there was an earlier one that was just machine translation. Soon enough we'll be ready for CS3 and CS4... Whenever and whoever. I just want all this uncertainty over by Christmas. By that point whoever should have enough time to works out a deal with Falcom.

Soon.

The way I see UBI, it would supplant social security and most other form of welfare (e.g., food stamps). Healthcare would remain untouched since it's such a different beast. With UBI you'll have a roof over your head and you'll be fed but you won't have much else. Any extra things you want will require you to work for it. That is incentive numero uno for wanting to work. To further encourage upward mobility, I think you can opt out of UBI for tax savings. The idea is that after a certain income level you will start losing money compared to the UBI you get but if you opt out, you start to be in the black and can start making more than what you can if you stayed on UBI. Some sort of pressure/incentive has to be in place for those who work to get out of UBI. Not having an incentive to get off welfare can and do make welfare queens and kings. At worst it can encourage a constant state of near poverty within a family or community.

My issue with Progressive is that there is too many pieces going on at once. Progressive has a different approach to it's story than FLCL which is fine, it is a direct sequel. However at the 5th episode point, FLCL already explained and grown a ton while Progressive has a lot to explain and explore in its last episode (Hitomi; Haruko; those other guys). I just don't think it can without being really ham fisted. I would love to be proven wrong though. That or there's a 4th season which I think gives Progressive a lot more breathing room. Hell, maybe Alternative does have more connections to FLCL and Progressive than is let on.

Another four years wait until Mexican Americans attempt to block out the sun with fireworks.

Some of their PS3 localizations were pretty bad. How does a localization somehow brick your system?

No duel-audio, no buy.

As someone who's very outside of practicing law, I have never seen it that way. Maybe Ethan or Goh seen it that way.
