Sad, disappointed, and worried.

What do I win once I tick them all off?

It's showing me two AMD GPUs currently but one of them is listed as a new product so it might not have been there when you last checked.

Something about the Blitzball players all being characters you could find in the world, some of whom would otherwise be unremarkable NPCs really burrowed into my brain with FFX. Something about the fact that you'd have relationships with characters in two different contexts where they would often play a wildly different role in each really made the world feel a little bit more alive than normal.

I like it but found the fear of using items you might later need too be exacerbated to an uncomfortable degree by the magic system. I suspect I'd enjoy it more today than when it came out.

It's because they go hand in hand. I've had experience with customer service roles where staff are empowered to solve issues and it requires very very very slightly higher investment in your employees to pull off.

Because they are judging the water use by final weight and you make cheese by removing the water from milk.

Also like... Cheese is where you take all the valuable stuff out of milk and through away the water that constitutes most of it's mass. Of course it's a poor water to weight ratio because most of the weight of milk is water. But in terms of water usage to available dietary nutrition I can't see it being very different to milk.

While it's not perfect I think emissions per calorie is a better measurement than emissions per kg (even more importantly for making comparisons of water usage.)

All you're arguing is that the web is decentralised, not that any given website within it is.

It looks like Kotick will be leaving after the transition so that's a great start. My dream is that this all somehow leads to the full Overwatch PvE campaign coming back onto the table again (given that their attempts to provide long-term replay ability without doing the work seem to be floundering now, there's a chance right?)
