I had the surgery done on both of my big toes, both sides.
Let me preface with this, the surgery is very short, done with local anesthesia, mostly painless, and very cool to watch. The recovery time is short (I think it was 3 days until I was able to play soccer again).
Now for the gory details. To start, they need to numb up your toe. The nerves they need to numb on the underside of your foot on either side of your tone bone. For reasons, they can’t just do a short needle through the bottom of the foot, so they go in through the top with a long, big ass needle. For me, they used a cryo spray that numb my toe a bit, there was definitely a pinch, but honestly not bad, I’d give it a 2/10 on a pain scale. For reference, I’d consider the ingrown nail a 2, and it jumps up to a 5 if you stubbed it. After the anesthesia, they roll a castration band over your toe to cut off the blood supply so it doesn’t squirt all over the place when they cut the nail. After a few minutes, they cut your nail straight back all the way to the nailbed, past the cuticle, then they use a chemical cauterizing agent on wooden stick to burn the nailbed to prevent regrowth stop bleeding, and sterilize the areas. After that, they remove the band, wrap your toe in gauze and give you your post op paperwork.
Post op instruction for me were to soak my toe twice a day in an epsom salt solution, and otherwise keep the area dry and clean. I had some bloody pus discharge from my toe the first time I changed the bandage, but it was clean after that.

Sure, you could just use one spell to kill your enemy, but for a squishy wizard, forcing someone to watch their friend use their last breath to scream into their own anus about the unimaginable pain of their tortured spine, makes a compelling deterent for further aggression.
A lot of things i thought were cute and nice like dolphines, ducks, cats (i saw one cat eat anothers new born), dogs (multiple cases of eating dead owners due to a variety of reasons starting from trying to wake em up to other malicious reasons), hamsters etc turned out to be wrong . Raccoons are the only thing i believe in...
Honestly, Skunks, and maybe Possums. They are omnivores, so there is a certain amount of “will kill and eat other living things” but generally they have chill vibes and prefer to eat roots and garbage.
Raccoons aren’t necessarily evil, but they are definitely chaotic little shit bastards.
Considering that a good chunk of police training is “Us VS Them” and “You gotta be quick on the draw if you want to see your wife and kids tonight” I can’t really blame the Acorn guy. He’s a product of the environment he was trained in. Any one of those windows could have a sniper in it. You don’t know who the detained person has backing him up. Kids with bikes can roll up on you and shoot you faster and easier than a squad of gangbangers can do a drive-by. Suspect could have smuggled a pistol with him and gotten loose.
The fact is, we train police to be afraid of everything, and then we give them a gun and send them out into society. This was a predictable result.
No, you would pay taxes on the unrealized gains of your assets. So if your assets are worth 0, then you pay 0. If they are worth 20mil, then you pay taxes on 20mil.
Just a quick reminder, one of the main principles of capitalism is risk vs reward.
It only got this popular partly because of the lack of a PSN account to play. Developer said they had somewhere between 5 and 20 times the number of players they expected.
That was never mentioned in a meaningful way on my purchasing platform, or in the game. At no point was I told that I was only temporarirly allowed to play without a PSN account, and that the entire game would be locked down months later unless I created and linked one. Were that the case, I would have refunded on day 1.
I don’t have a PSN account. I was able to log in and play without using a PSN account. At no point was I told that a PSN account would be required to play. My very reasonable assumption. Is that the PSN account requirement was listed for crossplay, or managing socials with PS players. If the game had not worked from day one, or if I had been notified in the game that this was merely a temporary solution, and that I would be unable to play at all in the coming months, then I would have refunded without even trying.
So no, despite what the little label said, PSN account was not required to play the game. It worked fine without the PSN account.
In an ideal world, the requirement would be removed. Since the availability of the game has arbitrarily changed a lot in the last 2 days, Sony should at least offer full refunds and an apology to the community.
I’m not going to. Ultimately, Sony is a megacorp and I’m just one dude. I’ll simply voice my displeasure to people inquiring about them, and never trust a Sony product or promise in my life again. They probably won’t give 2 shits, and I’m fine with that.
I don’t need to make an excuse. You’re making excuses, even more pathetic, you’re making excuses for a megacorp trying to datamine their customers by changing the conditions for use of the game that they already bought.
I played the game without a PSN account, along with most of the HD2 community, and I was happy with the content, which in no way relied on having a PSN account. I don’t have one. I played the game. Therefore, it was not required, regardless of what the store blurb said. I got exactly one notice to link a PSN account, which I skipped, it was a skippable thing, meaning was not required. When I skipped the PSN account, it took me straight to the game. There was no notice that it would be required to link at a later date.
If no one has told you yet, you have an amazing tongue. Your capability to lick boots and kiss ass is unparalleled. Shame that Sony won’t notice your efforts here either.
