You've seen him, even if you didn't know his name. He was one of the great character actors of...I was about to say "of his generation," but motherfucker was 91 with a career stretching from an Alfred Hitchcok movie in 1956 to a John Hughes movie in the 1980s to David Lynch's "Twin Peaks" in the summer of 2017.
He was Brett in Alien.

He was Molly Ringwald's dad in Pretty in Pink.

He was the estranged brother that elderly Richard Farnsworth drove 250 miles on a riding mower to visit one last time in The Straight Story.
He just kind of turned up in Avengers. He did that sometimes too.
And most important, he taught us the Repo Code.

I have a somewhat conflicted opinion about SDA/GDQ's glitch friendliness. I don't mind minor glitches, or some minor sequence breaks, but things like OOB and skipping huge swathes of the game are... boring IMO. Like if the super metroid speedrun involved skipping main bosses or glitching through doors I think it would lose a lot of its appeal
The fastest OOT involves tons of obscure bug dropping and picking up. It's interesting - as a dev - to watch and try to figure out how it actually works, but I wouldn't rewatch it. I watch the SM race every gdq pretty much
Or is that the joke
There are too many layers of satire here
No idea, I thought using glitches was like half the technique.
In 1820, the Japanese-Ming Imperialist War concluded, after eight years of battle that raged from the plains of America to the Middle Kingdom itself. Two million men, lost to the rage of war, for the vanity of the shogun Takeuji Date, who wished for nothing more than to prove that Japan - not China - was the true power of Asia. The results, though minor, had broader sweeping implications; the Ming, once an unstoppable behemoth, had been brought to a standstill, begging for peace by the war's end.
The puppet duchy of Shin-Pekin was established, cutting the vital trade region from the Ming. Other minor territorial concessions were granted to the duchy of Manshuukoku and the Republic of Sougen-Koukoku, who further cut the Ming from holding any ground in northern Asia and act as a wall protecting the vast expanse of Japanese Siberia. Japan itself had remained untouched by the war, the only awareness many people having of the conflict raging across the sea being reports and woodblock prints commemorating glorious victories achieved. Even Taiwan, the first of Japan's colonies, had played its part in the war, acting as a base for the blockade that cut off Ming for eight years.
The true extent of Japan's reach, of course, was found across the Pacific. The three colonies of Japan - Setsushuu, Toushuu, and Soushuu - now controlled half of the continent. Soushuu itself was perhaps, in its amassed wealth, a great power in its own right; but the Shogun administration had spent decades placating and soothing the minds of the masses in the arid lands and whip down to the hodgepodge of the southern continent. Though Soushuu had fought for the independence of the United States of America and the Caribbean Federation of Haiti from the yoke of English rule, they were content to remain vassals of the Japanese realm, if only for the protection it gave from collapse in the wake of nigh-constant revolt and agitation by the English minorities within their borders.
As 1821 dawns, all across the world know that the sun does not set on the Empire of the Rising Sun.
Definitely done with EU4 for another spell. Probably pick it up again after the DLC goes on sale and I can try out the new mechanics in Russia and East Asia.

what.
You actually inject the game with code
which actually yeah isn't playing the game at all.
Of course Imperial Japan has a decisive victory.

For instance, the first time I saw the Batman Arkham City Speedrun, it had a few cool major sequence breaks/oob tricks but was still pretty recognizable.
The version at GDQ this year was more advanced, with so many OOB's many of which had extensive / low odd setups, that it just sucked the fun out of the run.
There are definitely categories that are just no longer interesting. A 1m13s speedrun of SMW is a fun gag to see once.
Glitchless runs can have pretty high skill ceilings, but they can also end up pretty boring, for instance if 1 attack is the best throughout the whole game, or if you have to do really annoying movement tech (some castlevania's backwards dashing....)
here is my advice for anyone planning on fighting a land war in Asia:
try and avoid it
I only did it as a late-game challenge to see if I could eke out a victory
Mamma-Mia!

i bought one yesterday and ended up not eating it last night and now I have other dinner plans.
could it make it til sunday or would I be pushing my luck?
Should be fine, I think. i've eaten older steaks.

How it tastes is another question, fridges tend to make stuff drier. My gut feeling is that this probably worse for cooked meat than uncooked. If it's wrapped it'll be better than if it was in the open.
I mean, yeah, not ideal, but it should still be relatively good tomorrow.

steak for breakfast.

if it is not vacuum packed, tuesday would be the pushing your luck limit. Four days is the rule.
If it is sealed, then 14 days is the rule.
Sunday is ideal! Steaks get better from waiting a few days. The day before the use by date is the best day the steak will have.
EDIT: I mean it'd be perfectly safe on monday too.
no it is ideal!
As fresh as possible is not the goal, at all, with beef. The steaks we buy tend to be pre-tenderized by the factory so that they're decent right away; a totally fresh-off-the-cow steak would be a pretty shitty steak.
I like that game.
Full disclosure: I have not eaten steak in years.

I was trying to poison you, it's true.
And i would've gotten away with it, if it weren't for you meddling kid.

Well, this will be close.
It flipped to 0 as I was waiting at the light to turn into the gas station. I took this when I stopped at the pump. The engine stalled out immediately after.
