It snows in a lot of places, however that doesnt make it conducive to skiing. I live in a ski town, and it has consistently been 10°c during the day and it has absolutely wrecked the ski season. We are getting almost no natural snow. It is winter 7-8 months of the year here, and that doesnt inherently mean we have enough natural snow to have quality skiing.

Artificial snow is an option, but to have a good ski area requires significant amounts of annual snowfall in order to open all the runs. You can only make so much artificial snow even in ideal conditions. If its too warm then artificial snow isnt even enough

Transfer that concept to Saudi Arabia, where they would be lucky for it to be 10°c at night for more than 2 months of the year. Its not remotely feasible to have a ski area. Even if it naturally snows a little bit. Neom will be based entirely on artificial snow, when its even possible to make it, and that will melt practically as fast as they can put it down.

My comment is not ignorant, although perhaps it was not eliding everything I just conveyed. 3 months ago when I wrote my comment it was 50°c at night, in the area they are building the resort, at the time I wrote the comment. I literally just checked the weather

The only new game ive played this year is Ball X Pit and it is phenomenal and runs flawlessly for a game that is less than 3 months from having been released. I hope they keep adding onto it

Other than that i don’t think ive played any games newer than 2020 or maybe even before

Slop is terrible obviously, but at least in exchange for the slop we get… higher energy costs and acceleration of climate change

I meant privacy moreso as in coming and going as I please without interacting with anybody or being surrounded by other guests. But that is a valid separate concern I suppose

Short term rental, an umbrella term for airbnb, vrbo, etc

Tbh ive booked no less than 8 airbnbs in the last 3 years and have always had zero issues in any of them. No ridiculous rules or deposits or anything, and a lot more privacy than getting a hotel. More importantly, always far cheaper than getting a hotel that isn’t questionably shitty

In that same span of time, Ive booked like 4 hotel rooms. One was a four star property that was great but stupid expensive. One was a “3 star” property that was shoddy as fuck, had bedbugs, and refused to give me a refund despite bringing one of the bugs to the front desk and politely declining to be put in another room. The other two hotels were decent but cost more than what they were worth compared to a STR. Hence I roll on with airbnbs

Why anyone would pay more for less space and less privacy I fail to understand.

There are literally all of about 10 schools from which an MBA is worth anything. Often people with MBAs from non T10 schools are recommended to take their MBA off of their resume when they inevitably struggle to find a job. A sub T10 MBA on a resume just says “I will ask for more money courtesy of my useless credential”

“For the military… its an opportunity to recruit… kids” is a hell of a statement. Hot take but maybe the military shouldnt be recruiting children

With fish it is the opposite. Fish that dont eat fish arent usually very good eating. And most fish that eat fish are even cannibalistic of their own species

The difference can be pretty staggering between games even released a short time apart. I recently got back into AC games, and while downloading them I noticed Origins is less than 25 Gb, while Odyssey is over 75 Gb. They were only released one year apart.

I havent started Odyssey, so I cant make a comparison, but Origins is a beautiful and well running game at less than 25 Gb of data. I cant imagine Odyssey is significantly more impressive to a point where demanding 3x the data is justified, considering it runs on the same hardware. But I guess I will see soon enough
