Red Dead Redemption 2.
No, I don't know why. I've literally never played it and I have no interest in it given that it's a trash slave labor game for normies |

I kinda doubt it, given people have had a lot of trouble archiving and Tumblr's actively tried to prevent it.
That'd be good, though, and I fully support any archivism efforts. |

Might there be a slim chance that backups still exist somewhere on their site or on a shady torrent site?  "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

I wouldn't know, but I'd lean towards "no" again... or if they do have backups, we're probably not getting ahold of them.
Tumblr's a living example of why turning over unilateral control of the social Internet to a few large profit-motivated companies is a really bad idea. |

I wonder if some disgruntled ex-employee tried to steal backups?  "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Do you make time in your life to appreciate nature? like going for long walks, or sitting still and observing reality in motion? |

Posted by DanikaI wish. I doubt it, and it'd be cool, but I imagine anyone at a level high enough to just take backups whenever they want is gonna be kissing some serious butt all the time. Posted by ElemiNot nearly as much as I'd like, lately!!! There's nowhere really... like... in order for me to connect with nature I have to feel really unimpeded I guess? Like I used to hang out in my parents' backyard at 1am when there was no traffic noise and everything was quiet (until they caught me and started yelling at me for it, lol) and I'd just... sit there, just kinda trying to absorb the atmosphere of the place around me. I don't think I've ever just been able to think more clearly than that period of time. And then there were some really gorgeous parks when I lived in central Missouri, including one right by my house that I could see out my window all the time (sometimes I'd look out there and there'd be a person or two wandering around, haha). But I haven't really looked into it since moving to Denver... I live in a more urban area now, so it's hard to get anywhere that feels secluded. Every time I go on a walk here there's like 50 people and there's some dude dragging his dog around and his dog's taking a shit, or some dudes with the trimmed stubble look looking like they're tryin real hard to look cool jogging or whatever, flocks of dipshit high schoolers, cop cars, traffic noises, people blasting music, etc... I'd like to go to the mountains someday, or maybe even just the foothills looking down on the city (I got to follow my girlfriend on delivery once and you can see so so much from the foothills, it's so amazingly gorgeous). My girlfriend's not big on travel or nature and I don't really have transportation, though, so. But it's really nice when you can get somewhere you can really connect with nature, yeah. City places have their own atmospheres that're fun sometimes, but bleh. There are things I miss about middle-of-nowhere life, you know? Posted by EpeleI'M BLUE DA BA DEE DA BA DAI IF I WAS GREEN I WOULD DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted by ThieppyHm umm uhh. That's tough because I don't tend to think of games in terms of genre? Like it's way better if a game does something interesting with its genre than being in a good genre. Super Monkey Ball kind of stands out as a game concept that hasn't really been repeated and still feels really fun. I like the Metroidvania Castlevanias but I haven't played nearly enough of them. I like Sim games, particularly SimCity. FPSes were really stagnant and boring for a while but the very best FPSes (stuff like Doom and a lot of the old classic arena shooters, and now Splatoon and the new Dooms) are really great. I think my favorite thing to play is a really good action platformer. Something like Castlevania or Mega Man or Ninja Gaiden. 3D platformers are great, too, like Mario Odyssey was pretty legit. I think I just like platformers in general. |

Is Washington DC prone to hurricanes or tornadoes? Might move there next year "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

I actually was in the middle of researching an answer to this question before I disappeared for a little bit — I'm a lilapsophobe and meteorological statistics interest me, so I got curious and snooped around the SPC's tornado report data.
The rough answer is that statistically, you're a little more prone to tornadoes (and severe thunderstorms in general) in Washington, D.C. than in Albany (and similarly located cities like NYC and Boston) — but it's not really much higher than the average for the entire country. It looks like you'd be about in line with Detroit or Minneapolis, neither of which are particularly well-known for tornado frequency. As for hurricanes, it seems like the risk is a little higher than it would be in Albany — you have a higher chance of being in a hurricane than most of the country, but not nearly as high, say, as the states lining the Gulf of Mexico. Strength is a factor, too. You're far less likely to see a monstrous F5 tornado in D.C. than in Kansas or the Deep South — so much less so, actually, that it doesn't seem like anything higher than an F3's ever been recorded there (there has, however, been an F4 in nearby northern Virginia). It also doesn't seem like D.C. has a single recorded Category 5 hurricane. I wouldn't fret too much, basically. Be prepared if something happens, of course (and you'll get plenty of advance notice for a hurricane), but there's no point in stressing until then. |

Should I keep FiOS or switch to Xfinity if I make the move? "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Probably keep the FiOS. I can't imagine even if Comcast is good in the area that it'd be any faster/more reliable than fiber. My experiences with Comcast have been pretty uniformly negative, so. |
