Just insert random transformer boxes and manhole covers.

Fluxx is based on this.
As John Scalzi once said, "The failure mode of clever is asshole." [1]
That has prevented me from posting what I thought was a clever or cheeky response in case it didn't come across the way I wanted.

I love that guy. Never having been an avid reader, I’m trying to read more, and my mission now is to read through most of his books.

Yes, but I think some of this is also the increase in food worker minimum wage in California.
Oh, the real Twin Cities (Minneapolis-St. Paul) we certainly have a little rivalry and antipathy going on, but generally, very little. The other commenters here hinted at it: there are other towns and cities too. When people often say “the Twin Cities” they really mean the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, which is a seven-county, 3 million person region. There aren’t just two identities — there are several dozen identities — but they’re so small and nuanced that the distinction is often dropped or forgotten, or simplified (downtown vs. outside downtown, city vs. suburb, old vs. new developments, etc.)
Never heard of Minne-tucky before, but yeah, outstate or rural Minnesota would be that.

It seems to me that the 7-segment font would work better in all lowercase, specially if you don’t need to differentiate letters from numbers. A lowercase E would be easy, a lowercase G would basically be a 9, and you could do a two-story lowercase A.

mproud commented on Intel could return to Apple computers in 2027 theverge.com/news/832366/... · Posted by u/DamnInteresting
Semi-clickbait headline: as others have pointed out, this is just about who fabs the Apple-designed chips, not a contemplated return to x86. Still pretty interesting if true; would be cool to see Apple diversify from TSMC. I'm rooting for Intel!
At best, it’s Intel outside

Then I thought what would it make from an already dark and grim scene, like HL2 Ravenholm

but nothing really? Just made the whole thing a different color scheme + changed some architecture
