Meh. She's still a "secret" party member that you're very unlikely to accidentally unlock on a good run.

This is just letting experienced forum-rrading players recruit her a bit more easily.

Picked this up last week for a grand... couldn't pass it up. Holy crap it has a lot of tweakability. There's a bit of a learning curve to getting good sounds out of it, but damn does it sound nice once it's dialed in.

Ukraine is attacking military targets. That's the big difference here.

used to alert the rider that the software has overridden user input

I think this is the whole point. Riders were asking more of the boards than the boards could do, and when the board was unable to comply the rider would lose their balance. Haptic feedback tells the rider "nah, not doing that" so they're aware the board isn't going to do the thing and can adjust their balance accordingly.

“Market prices for this new housing are likely to far exceed the already high prices that existed in Lahaina before the fire. For renters, the old housing stock that was destroyed provided opportunities for reasonable rents,”

I think this is the issue. Poor folks live in older buildings. Can't rebuild new old, run-down cheap neighborhoods.

I'd hate to miss out on my $0.86

My dad (silent generation): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and be able to own a house and support a stay-at-home wife and kids. I dunno how you kids make it.

Me (gen X): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and afford rent and food. I dunno how you kids make it.

I'm not sure when the guy in the comic was born. Medieval times maybe? Because economic conditions for working class folks have been getting steadily worse for the entire lifespan of everyone alive today, at least in the US.

Playing music. Started on a shitty hand-me-down acoustic guitar. Got a better guitar. Got an electric. Got a better amp. Got a couple of pedals. Got a better amp. Got like 6 more amps, some cabs, 5 more guitars, a huge pedalboard, a cello, a keyboard, an audio interface, attenuators, mics, etc etc.

You gotta understand... I need all this stuff. There are subtle differences that you've never noticed before but will probably hear once I do an a/b comparison for you, and I absolutely must get an AC15 next to round out the collection instead of buckling down and recording something.

I like the existence of downvotes. They help separate content the community has no feeling about from content the community actively dislikes.

I love that they're shown separately. This helps separate controversial opinions from ones the community doesn't care one way or the other about.

I like that you can see who downvoted. Looking at their profile can give some insight as to why they didn't like the content.

I wouldn't call seven million murdered corpses "rubbish," but I guess we already knew how much Stalin valued his people.

Looks good for at least another couple of hundred yards.

I want the actual reviews so I have at least some chance of figuring out if the reviewer is a bot, a shill, a customer, or is reviewing the UPS guy instead of the product.
