And if childhood cartoons determined our actions, whole generations of kids would have wiped out the roadrunner population by dropping anvils on them (or attempting to, anyway).

Check their account history. They may as well be on an AI company marketing team.


There are different answers depending on the end goal.
Mere survival: Isolated human populations have been bottlenecked to as few as a few hundred individuals and survived, IIRC.
A quick search says biologists like to see 25+ breeding pairs to maintain an animal species (if I’m reading that correctly). So 50-100 seems like pretty close to the minimum.
Long-term colony building with full genetic diversity needs a lot more: At least one estimate is as high as 40,000 people. The high number is for Earth-like diversity in the population, and with no need for any overarching breeding program, so it’s really kind of an outlier scenario. That 40k figure can be pared down significantly if you have strict protocols, or accept some loss of diversity.
So anywhere from 50 people to 40,000 people, but the end result will look wildly different at the extremes.


They take on a number of characteristics of the host species where they gestate. Probably depends heavily on that?
Definitely acidic, though.


I’m not sure if steamdb can search the entire catalog, but at https://steamdb.info/sales/ you can put a filter on the maximum number of reviews.
Not exactly the same thing, but may be a decent proxy.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Palpatine


I say we still do that one, though. As long as he goes, personally.
The Boys.
Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is strictly catch and release.


While they’re at it, let’s include image stabilization. Shaky cam was the worst film fad of the era.


I’ve had games purchased for me, but I’m not really into first person shooters, especially competitive ones, and especially especially on a console where I’m stuck using a controller.
So Black Ops III and the Master Chief Collection may be awesome for lots of people, but that’s not my jam.
Seize all electronic devices and scan for logged-in accounts, cookies, browsing history, etc.
Depending on the severity of the crime (if NSA gets involved, for instance) there are ways to defeat Tor, anyway. They have historically maintained backdoors (technical and human) into most telecom networks, and can always “ask” ISPs for a ton of information on a suspect.


I haven’t used revanced in a while, but Fennic + ubo + sponsor block should get you to basically the same place unless they’ve added new features since I used it last.
No separate app required.


But that doesn’t make a good headline.


One does not simply walk on the Interstate.


Who are you delegating to “disallow” such a thing? Like a law?


I can’t speak for the official rules, but I swear I’ve heard “What is…” in times when that’s not the most appropriate response.
It sure feels like “in the form of a question” is more important than if the question itself makes grammatical sense.


I graduated in 2001 in a tech-adjacent field, and my first job was as a security guard making barely over minimum wage. Things get bad. Things get better.


It would be nice and easy to blame this on partisan right-wing American politics, but with age-gating laws on the books or soon to go into effect in Australia, UK, and California (and probably more), it’s not really that simple.
My wife will scrub the dishes, then put them in the dishwasher, and not start it because it’s not completely full.
They’re already so clean, the next person in the kitchen has a very difficult time telling if it has been run or not. JUST too dirty to eat from again, but also too clean to see at a glance. So annoying. I even got one of those clean/dirty magnets so we can signal to everyone, but then people forget to switch it.
