Have you played somewhat recently? They've had a few expeditions that addressed variety in planets.

This is totally valid and many people feel similarly. I wouldn't entirely agree that it's only an inch deep (this isn't Elite Dangerous for goodness sake) - but it's certainly sometimes harder than it should be to find t

> so I wonder how the financial aspect plays into that narrative. I've been wondering about this for a few years now. Do they really sell enough new copies of the game to fund development of several new expeditions a year? I suppose

> and "turned it around" is underselling it. This. I really feel that the good will they burned up with the launch - and I'm not denying it was very poorly handled - they've made up for 10x over since then. Every expe

I'm pretty sure that GP agrees with you on this point? You just cut off the rest of their quote where they point that out.

While I think I agree with you in principle, it's worth pointing out that at least some of these targeted/relevant ads you want come with privacy concerns which, at least in my opinion, are just as important if not more so than th

I imagine this would make road repair even more common, intensive, and disruptive than it already is?

It works here.

I'm really glad we sorted this out.

No, it doesn't.

As someone who can type rather quickly, I disagree. It can take some time to internalize, but once you do, it's much faster. Same with Ctrl-C - once I got used to navigating by word instead of by character to correct things, it became

No, it implies that everything with a price and a supply issue will likely still face that supply issue even with a higher price.

It doesn't need to be one or the other. You can be angry that the machine exists - and work to destroy it - but you can also appreciate people doing the work to stop orphans from being crushed. And you don't always have to do both

Grief, at least, is not necessarily a dark emotion. It is an inevitable part of love, which is itself almost always full of good and bad emotions. "Misery is wasted on the miserable." https://www.youtube.com/watch?

It's not a "gotcha"? It's just that not all calls are transcribed, and thus are not easily searchable. An extremely small fraction of them are transcribed, and I don't really see how one searches through those that
