I'm absolutely not an expert in the field, but for identification is usually best to provide time of the year and location, since they greatly improve the chance of correctly recognizing the animal

Are these squirrels or some other kind of rodent? I've never really been so close to one. Do they usually nest near windows, or is this an exhibit of some kind?

Yeah, the love they showed for what they have done with the game seemed really genuine! I can't wait for the game. I'm sure that, even if it won't be goty or liked by everyone, it surely will be a labor of love

For the first run, I think I'll try one of my actual favourite characters, a GOOlock, just to see how it works in the game.

Then a bard, probably.

Let's see if this works, then...

The navigation arrows are something I'm very used to, they were also in various reddit apps and they're one of the reasons I prefer using Jerboa, so YMMV

I'm not going to shit on your excitement, I just want to give my perspective (and I liked the show!).

You're right, this is a series that "builds a world". The main grip I (as many others) have, in relation to the books, is that the books build a universe and a whole history, in addition to the series. The characters themselves, aside from Hari Seldon and a couple of others, are relatively unimportant, and that's the beauty of it: it's a way of showing how psychohistory works, by not focusing on the individual but the whole society around them.

This, of course, is quite difficult to translate to screen, but having one character being "the special one" goes really against the whole spirit of the worldbuilding set in the books (and that's why I'm quite interested in seeing how they portray The Mule). The gender and ethnicity changes I couldn't care less, but these kind of things... eh, they strip the story of what made it special in the first place.

Thanks! I do audio work, so the GPU is basically an afterthought.

Thank you for sharing your experience!

You misunderstand, these are the specs of my current pc, which I'm using for work at home. I also want to use it for modern gaming, which I can't really do with a 1050ti, so I want a new GPU.
