And measuring in moles is way less crazy than measuring in eagles.

The polish on this is excellent.

When I was a kid, I was diagnosed as being lactose intolerant as well. The thing is, I'm not lactose intolerant at all. I'm actually gluten intolerant. It's very hard to diagnose without cutting gluten out of one's diet. And I only figured out because I started making bread a few times each week and got very sick.

The thing is, I always used to think I'd outgrown my lactose intolerance, too. If you have the time, maybe give a gluten free diet a try. My life is so much different now after cutting out gluten. At one point I was going to the gym for 2 hours a day, trying to lose weight, but I just couldn't. Now, I'm the skinniest I've been in years and I mostly sit around.

Unfortunately, the diet really does have to be totally gluten free. Even cross contamination will give me noticable problems for days. The body basically cripples its ability to intake nutrients after having any amount of gluten and it takes time to heal. On the bright side, it's a pretty easy diet to follow when eating at home and a lot of restaurants now have gluten free options, too.

Well I'll be. Yes, I'm still on Windows 10. I suppose now I have a reason to consider updating.

If I use display port for 2 monitors, when my system sleeps, all of the windows forget where they've been placed and I have to move each one back into position. 2x HDMI doesn't have that issue. Until that changes, display port is unusable for me.

What? You aren't excited to find a dagger that deals an effective .03% more damage against distant green ghosts on federal holidays? How could gear possibly get any more exciting than that?

It's how the dates are typically said, here. November 6th, 2020 = 11/6/2020. [Edit: I had written 9 instead of 11 for November.] (We basically never say the sixth of November. It sounds positively ancient.) It's easy to use, but I agree that YYYY-MM-DD is vastly superior for organization.

I don't mind adding cosmetics for money, but the base game should have included 10+ colors for each character. Having to buy colors 3-10 individually feels scummy. Not even the ultimate edition included the costumes.

Now, at locals, every character looks the same.

I agree with everything you're saying. 6 is an excellent game for a multitude of reasons, but why stress the "Japanese" part? SF is the most popular fighting game series and pretty much always has been.
