I believe those never had a sales tax on groceries, at least at the state level.

The risk is that some unknown hacker discovered this vulnerability and abused it before the researchers discovered and reported it. It sounds like the company has confirmed that didn't happen, but they aren't 100% trustworthy in that regard, simply because they might have missed something.

The idea of it being numbered is that you are given your number when you vote to check against later, but nobody else is given that number so they can't tie the vote to you.

After giving such a bad answer to it that some other part of the government stepped in and said the answer was dramatically insufficient.

I mean that you straight up cannot unlock new equipment, costumes, starting points, and the like while offline and/or disconnected from the game servers. IIRC the game just doesn't track stage mastery without a connection.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want a game that I paid for to remain functional long term. In my case I have a copy of the Hitman trilogy in my Steam library, and as it stands when the servers for that game go offline it will become nearly unplayable just because the unlock system is reliant on the publisher's servers. It would be easy for them to just release a patch as they decommission those servers to allow the unlock system to function offline, but right now there is no guarantee of that happening, nor any real reason to do so besides some consumer goodwill.

Had to look up what a ute was, for any Americans it's a pickup truck. And I was going to say the exact same thing, judging people for having a spotless pickup.

I will point out that this cannot change the result of the presidential election, since Trump didn't win the state in question anyway.

I was kinda annoyed at the article for not giving any details on the kinds of policies they wanted there, even something as simple as better tax credits for having kids would go a long way towards making children affordable. And yet I am sure that's not what these people are advocating for.

That stance against sports betting annoys me so much, because that means I can't just look at everything they stand for and say I want the opposite.

You are partly correct about DS2. It did increment even by wiping without spending the souls, but on the other hand the ranges involved meant that there was very likely always someone in range.
