Throwing a handful of mods on, can give it a much less dated vibe. The pacing in Goodsprings is quite slow, if you can't stand it, head onwards as soon as you have a semi decent weapon.

Smaller kids still love playgrounds, even if they also want/love screentime. Heck, it is not infrequent there are a group of younger teenagers at the playgrounds we frequent.

Adulting is hard 😑 didn't exactly help I emigrated to my spouse's home country, we had our child, I (finally) got my career properly going, and we bought a house, all in a span of two years.
But, even without all that, adulting would be a lot. Up until I started actually feeling like an adult, I wanna say somewhere in my 30s, it usually seemed like adults had their shit together. Either life used to be somewhat easier, or part of adulting is getting really good at pretending you have your shit together...

Well they did get their data from geotagged tweets, which I imagine skews the results just a bit towards nationalism.

Well that's good, but even if we are generous and say half the ~80 million gun owners in the US, are as responsible with their weapons as you are; that leaves a fuckton of gun wielders who are not responsible.
I am not outright anti-gun, but it makes no sense to me it took two tests and several weeks of waiting, to get a driver's license; and if I want to do e.g. more than basic electrical or plumbing changes in my home, I should get a permit and there will be an inspection. Yet I could waltz into a store, buy guns like I was a personal army, and at worst I would have to wait a couple days to pick them up. As far as I know, there are 0 requirements or inspections for if you have a gun safe; let alone any form of test or licensing of if you are just barely competent and safe weilding them.

There's a lot of bullshit in zoning to begin with. Why exactly can't we have mixed commercial and residential areas in suburbia? Slap some apartments on top of grocery stores, bakeries/restaurants, and shops; or is forbidden to have much of anything within walking distance of homes?

Just two 15A breakers is enough actually. Outlets are supposed to be able to sustain 80% power, so you should be able to pull 1.44kW from a singly puny Nema 5-15.

They unfortunately do, but at that age the brain is still partially goo:

According to the National Organization of Victims of Juvenile Murderers, cognitive function develops concrete to abstract between the ages of 12 and 15. This means that a person can genuinely understand that specific behavior brings specific consequences. However, research has shown that a teenager’s brain does not resemble an adult’s fully matured brain until they reach their early 20’s.

I have always like GPS essentials for various other location tasks. While I have never used it, there’s a track mode under streams. Data can be exported in a handful of formats.

Shadow snakes? At least that’s the name I recall from Smarter every day talking to an eclipse pro/fan.
Sounded very cool, if I recall right it’s a phenomenon you can observe shortly before, and especially right after, a total eclipse.

Even though I’m sure that’s what a Honeypot from RIAA/MPAA would say, then that’s awfully nice of you.
I’m fairly sure I have invites to one or both of tleech & tday. Will check later.

I have seen plans where you pay a fixed price/kWh; almost seemed like a decent deal, until I read the fine print - the regular fees & transportation/kWh is on top of the fixed cost.

Depending on the chair and how you position your butt cheeks, you can sometimes sneak out a fart silently.
