Nope! Just for people who need to grab essentials. I've been going in early for the past few months at the local one and it's been glorious.
Hmm. I usually go at like 10 A.M. on a Friday or Saturday and it is fine.
Ah. I've got regular times now so can only manage the weekend and it's packed pretty much all day. So showing up around eight and it be virtually empty is fantastic.
Oh she automatically shoots backwards while running. Oh God. Oh man.
She is absolutely one of the most powerful classes in the game. So far she's the only one I've beaten the game with. Though I've come close with the Engineer and Acrid.
I got pretty far with Acrid, too; I was just wading into big groups of enemies on max difficulty without much trouble.
Got a little cocky, though, and died to a bunch of little piglets.
I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.
Instructions from the tower is trivial. Infact, that's what the big uproar 20(ish) years back was about. Ground control tower operators were scheduled to be replaced by a purely automated solution because it was proven more efficient. The union basically went ape-shit, and that whole roll-out was delayed.
No, that's not what it was about. At all.
What was it about
Is there a Wikipedia search term I could use?
I don't really care about the automation discussion but the sociology of the rollout sounds interesting
It was about how the FAA was fucking the ATCs out of their pensions.
(I take this one personally, because I'm the son of a PATCO striker.)
to be precise, AFAIK it was about union leadership assuring members that the FAA couldn't afford to replace them with a purely automated solution, so that the FAA attempting to fuck them out of their pensions could be defeated by confrontation
our FedEx guy dropped off some packages and while I'm signing for it something inside one settles and makes a sound. nothing weird, just enough to catch our attention
he says, "well I've heard lobsters making noises but not phones"
I say, "lobsters?"
"yeah. they're packed in dry ice, but they start to thaw out in transit and they claw at the box"
"...huh"
"first time I heard it I didn't know what the hell it was. I'm going through looking for like a rat or something, and finally figured out that it was a lobster trying to escape"
something about this unsettles me for reasons I can't articulate

it's a lesson that unions should never, ever believe their own messaging
it is one thing to argue that automation can't replace you when you are opposing being automated out of your job
it is another thing to actually believe that when planning for strategic labour-employer confrontation in an adversarial system - this is confusing because the confrontation itself may be sparked by incipient automation. When your employer senses they don't need you any more, that's when they'll seize your pensions, after all. But in an adversarial system, they are doing so because that is exactly when you have the least power to fight them, so staging a fight at that point is utterly foolish

Blood sausage?

Yeah, I haven't used the Engineer much because he kind of seems too good.
Yesssssssss

I had either duck sausage once. It was dry and gamey. Did not enjoy.
Sorry, @DasUberEdward.
We will make alternative arrangements to allow you to live out your delusions in peace
i am an expert in sausage law
You absolutely can't eat a hot dog, but you can however eat a wurst but you don't want to live with a blood sausage, it'll blast your eardrums out.
Dude seek peaceful compromise not war
How about Italian sausage and beef sandwich combo

this turned out to be false

It's the missiles. They are just so crazy good and on a much lower cooldown than I would expect.

Sausages are excellent what is this blasphemy. Does the burger have a pig intestine wrapped around it for an amazing crunch? I think not.
God I love this bit.
so good -- but I don't think I'd ever eat it like, straight or however people eat sausage that isn't sausage gravy.
