It’s mainly to do with the neighbourhood concept they use. They keep all the housing loaded up because they’re legitimate zones you can enter, log in or out from, teleport into, etc. Because a lot of those things exist regardless of the housing owner playing or not it’s not really feasible to archive it because other players also see it and access it.
There’s some variance there (for example on Materia they haven’t opened wards 25-30 yet), not all plots are sold, and FC housing isn’t quite as stringent since as long as at least one person in the FC enters the house they keep it, but still crazy numbers regardless. You can see why they’re disincentivised to fix it.
The ironic part of this is if they spent the money to upgrade the infrastructure so anyone who wanted a house (of any size) could have one, and therefore didn’t need the auto demolition any more, more people would pause their subscriptions when they’re not actively doing anything, which drops SE’s revenue.
So I get why fixing housing isn’t a big priority, it would impact their bottom line twice.
On the other hand, still sucks. Especially with many countries struggling with cost of living and some dealing with active war zones (to be fair, some of these pauses on auto demolition are for that reason), it just feels like it’s rubbing salt into the wound, especially when you might not be able to replace it in the future depending on your server.
Love your optimism 😊
Now I wish we could have two earrings at once so I can have a donut on one ear and a cup of coffee on the other for my culinarian glam 😂
Now we just need Ferrari to do a partnership with Nintendo and we can literally have Mario vs Sonic on the F1 track.
It’s not mandatory but when you’ve got points on the line they probably didn’t want to be seen to be making decisions that could cost midfield teams a chance at points, even if that meant an extra lap or two behind the safety car.
Agree on the GDPA role, but they did explicitly ask him about it during the interview so figured it was at least worth mentioning.
Best theory I have is all the teams are expecting some sort of sanction over the incident and they all want to be able to be arms length and say “that was the FIA’s decision” and not have sound bites where they were suggesting that something should happen.
All the drivers clearly have been advised by their teams to not comment on the Max situation. Oscar basically said “didn’t have context on what happened, only saw they collided, can’t comment”, Lando ignored the question entirely and just started talking about his own race, George was pretty non committal despite being involved in the incident and also flat out refused to comment in his role as a GPDA director (says he was “too close to comment”).
Clearly they don’t want any sound bites out there about it.
Oh absolutely, I’m not suggesting it’s a product worth using in this day and age when you probably have good quality music available locally. It was a potentially useful tool back when we all used to download music of questionable quality off the internet, but less relevant these days.
You can also get an iTunes Match subscription. No idea what it goes for these days but it’s a bit cheaper than Apple Music (doesn’t give you access to any music but lets you sync your music in iTunes to all your devices - still requires a Mac or PC to use though).
tvOS supports VPN connections directly on the Apple TV. Haven’t tried it myself but I assume you just download the Tailscale app, set it up, and then it should just work.
Probably so he had the process worked out and ready in case he needed it later in the race rather than them trying to explain it in the moment.
I felt Ollie should have gotten DOTD over Lewis. 20th to 10th and points (well, a point) in a Haas seems more impressive than 9th to 5th in a Ferrari.
Enjoyed the race though! But this is multiple weeks now where we’ve had issues with the graphics during the race. This week was the most egregious but there’s been multiple examples in 2025 where they’ve turned off the timing on screen because of problems, often with some of the animations freezing or causing driver names to overlap. Wonder what happened to it in the off season?
Surely the ability to be able to tell that story now was a birthday present all by itself 😂
Probably depends on what parts of FFV you enjoyed really. If the ability to customise every character in your party was the selling point, Final Fantasy X-2 might be worth trying. It also has a job system and characters can change jobs during battle as well.
Final Fantasy XII also had a pretty flexible system where you could assign classes to each character, and then customise the skills they each had. The definitive release of the game which is what you’d be getting if you buy it for a modern console has the ability to change all this out and redo it easily if you don’t like the path you’ve taken.
You have essentially a team sport (yes, there’s also the individual component), of course fans are going to be “tribalistic” about their teams. And as any sports fan knows, the team that’s been dominant for a long period of time tends to be polarising, you’re either with them or against them (especially when that period of dominance started with controversy).
Doesn’t mean it’s a good look for boos at a formal function as opposed to race day, but can’t say this is a surprise.
Just call it a fashion style. The Emperor’s New Clothes collection.
I mean could be a valid distraction in the courtroom. Was obviously enough of a distraction in the marriage.
Probably seems random but I was really hoping to see an expansion of the glamour dresser functionality they added where sets could be grouped together to include the Alliance Raid gear. Dungeon gear can be grinded out solo for most older stuff and with duty support if it can’t, but Alliance Raids need at an absolute minimum 3 people - more depending on the raid (LotA needs 12 minimum because of the Atomos, Orbonne I don’t think can be cleared with 3 because of Agrias even if the previous two raids can be, and I’ve not seen a 3 man NieR raid yet, and definitely not Myths of the Realm or Jeuno).
So you would tend to hold onto AR gear over dungeon gear purely because it’s harder to replace. Being able to group sets of 5 pieces into one glamour slot would be perfect. Especially with a whole bunch of new glam dropping this patch!
