That's a pretty big claim considering Super Mario 64 predates Spyro by 2 years. I'll admit I'm biased, since I had an N64 and not a PS1 growing up. However, when I went to play Spyro recently, the levels just seemed bare and collecting the gems and freeing the dragons felt very inconsequential. In comparison, collecting a star in SM64 felt like a real task that you were rewarded for completing by further unlocking doors in the castle. It's possible that I did not let the game "settle in" before dropping it, but the game just didn't seem to have an alluring gameplay loop.

    Nic Cage plays the psycho antagonist and appears trans-coded. This is unfortubate because trans representation in media, especially horror, has historically been a bit rough (see Psycho and Silence of the Lambs). Oz Perkins, the director, has stated that he is not meant to be trans, but is supposed to be a "glam rock" guy. There are other parts of the movie that validate that, but ultimately it is up to viewers choose what they think.

    In the US, it is incredibly cheap. It's made out of one of our cheapest crops: soybeans. You can get a pound of tofu for less than $2 probably, even at my "health food" stores. I'd suggest looking for Chinese/Japanese/Korean markets and see what they sell.

    I mean, I used to live in Columbus. Didn't feel very red to me, for obvious reasons, but the point is that your viewpoint can easily change based on the slice of Ohio you get to see. My impression in Columbus is you either had people who were clearly blue or people that didn't seem to care. I'm sure the same is true just outside of Columbus if you switch "red" in for "blue."

    Honestly, after I saw this, I decided to look for alternatives that fit my use case and failed. All I want is a terminal where I can create splits and tabs in the same cwd as the current terminal even on a remote machine. I frequently want to create ad-hoc splits when working on a remote server. In kitty I can do this with a simply keystroke without any custom code or configuration, so long as I am using the ssh kitten. Are there any other terminals that do this? Bonus points if it implements kitty image protocol, which is used in a neovim plugin I use.

    I don't know why people seem to forget that Ohio used to be considered a swing state. They are not "historically red," which is why it always bothered me that Ohio was hopelessly red according to some people.

    No, I think oil evaporates/boils at very high temperatures (think of how deep-frying is done at 325+ degrees). I think the oil on the surface of the bean in facts makes an oilier cup, based on my anecdotal evidence. You could do an experiment with a greasy and non-greasy dark roast and see which roast produces an oilier/fuller brew.
