I hear some cities call the larger area as metro (Vancouver) and other cities call it greater (Toronto). Is there a functional difference? Generally speaking, is one more urbanized than the other?
I’m not sure about actual functional definitions, but I think of it based on the size of the various cities involved. Metro seems to be used when referring to relatively large cities and towns that have blurred together to the point you move between them without distinct separation. Whereas Greater is applied when there is still a more clear separation between the core “big city” and the suburban towns around it.
It has always amused me that the tourists to the US that I’ve spoken to are often very excited to see raccoons, and disappointed if they don’t see them before they leave....
We did a Mexican vacation several years ago and everyone in our tour group would surround and excitedly take pictures of iguanas. The local tour guides would laugh and talk about how that always happens and how they were like squirrels to them.
Having dropped New Vegas in the past due to lost interest, I decided to try this game out finally since a friend of mine was having a fallout 3 playthrough himself. It was it 8 bucks, so I figured why not. I have to say, I put way more hours into this game than both other Bethesda games I’ve played through (Skyrim and...
Which modern Fallout game would you suggest for someone who loved the first 2 and generally prefers classic (and modern classic style) RPGs and deep stories?
Correct, and I’m familiar with the Wasteland games and they’re great. I was asking about the 3D games specifically. I remember starting Fallout 3 back on my 360 years ago and just not caring for it. I’ve always wondered if I should give another one a go.
That’s weird about this to me, I never would have called Seinfeld right leaning. Like every one of his standups I’ve ever seen is very neutral, and the show was actually pretty progressive for the time. Chapelle did the punching down, got called out on it (rightfully so), and then doubled down and swung to the right because now he’s the victim! But as far as I know, Jerry didn’t do anything (In terms of jokes, ignoring the… youthfulness… issues for the moment) He just decided to bust out with I’m a victim too stop censoring me? Was there any preface to all this?
Yep, I was coming to comment that my company hired him for an event we had maybe 10 years ago. It was standard “work hard and you can accomplish anything” stuff peppered with HR friendly jokes and bits of the dance routine. It was weird though because most of the people there were either too young or too old to have any idea who he was or what video people were talking about.
The official ChatGPT app on iOS integrates really easily and nicely with Apples Shortcuts apps, so doing stuff like summarizing a web page in one click (without having to do API stuff) is super simple for anyone. Is there an equivalent on Android?
Blue was the original, Awkward Penguin. Then someone introduced the flipped red version for opposite pov jokes. And then the half and half version popped up and sort of took over.
I use HomeAssistant automations for all my home stuff, it has an official easy to add Node Red integration available.

I love snickerdoodles so these were pretty tasty to me. The cookie texture is very soft, almost reminds me of their muffin. It's got a nice cinnamony flavor, would recommend.
Yep. And like like all his games it is good, it’s just nowhere close to how hyped up he got everyone before it came out. This article captures that particular fiasco quite well… eurogamer.net/the-god-who-peter-molyneux-forgot

What's the actual difference between greater vs metro cities?

For the official Android app is there an automation tool integration similar to Shortcuts on iOS?
