JamesTBagg, to politics in 'No one involved in the effort thinks he has a path': Biden insiders say the writing is on the wall

This muckracking and hit pieces focusing on the one viable counter to Trump are becoming tiresome. Why not present an alternate besides “let trump win.”

JamesTBagg, to privacy in ACLU suspects warrantless surveillance in neo-Nazi’s prosecution

I don’t disagree with you, but maybe that’s why the ACLU is forced to play the game this way.

JamesTBagg, to privacy in ACLU suspects warrantless surveillance in neo-Nazi’s prosecution

Maybe, just hypothesis from a dumb guy, maybe this case is a tactical choice. It’s higher profile, It’ll progress through the courts faster, they suspect the Supreme Court will be more sympathetic to this plantiff and this get the judgements that protect everyone, I don’t know. Maybe it marketing to appear impartial, “See, we’ll even defend a nazi.”
I don’t know, I’m shooting from the hip while sitting on the toilet.

JamesTBagg, to games in ELDEN RING - Update 1.12.2 (Rebalanced Scadutree Blessings)

There was a time where the tag line for Dark Souls was “Prepare to Die”

That’s a neat fun fact, but I didn’t buy Dark Souls, known for its difficulty, I bought Elden Ring, notable for its beautiful open world and complex meandering story.
Beating Malenia’s ducky dance or chasing the Elden Beast around the arena for half an hour is not as interesting as all the questions created by the multiple stories and characters in the world. Or how Marika has betrayed or been betrayed. How Godfrey was cast aside only to be recalled when The Order needed protecting. Or how Godwyn pollutes the world above his carcass.
No part of the story will be diminished if the player is given a slight edge in combat. The combat often isn’t even that fuckin good, it’s just pattern memorization.
Some of you try hards are just, ugh, go back and sit down on your shit bucket. The rest of us are trying to have fun with our video games.

JamesTBagg, to world in Iceland issues license for 128 fin whales to be hunted this year

What do US politicians have to do with Iceland issuing the permits to an Icelandic company?

JamesTBagg, to 196 in Standard rule

Me, being simple minded, assumed it was two different actors for hunchback-Yen and smokeshow-Yen.

JamesTBagg, to politics in Judge Cannon rejects request for gag order against Donald Trump in classified docs case | CNN Politics

When is the prosecution allowed to appeal(?) for a different judge due to obvious bias for the defense?

JamesTBagg, to lemmyshitpost in acceptable screws

And good bait at that. You’ve snagged us all.

JamesTBagg, to lemmyshitpost in acceptable screws

My first thought was, “this post brought to you by not mechanics.” Otherwise they’d recognize the superiority of hex and torx over Philips and especially flat. But then I realized this is, in fact, a very shit post.

JamesTBagg, to tenforward in Battle of the Bands

The first time I saw a capital ship drop out of witch space into a conflict zone was something.

JamesTBagg, to tenforward in Could the Federation defeat Star Wars' Empire in an all-out war?

The Empire shielded an entire planet in Rogue One.

JamesTBagg, to tenforward in Could the Federation defeat Star Wars' Empire in an all-out war?

I’m assuming they know. I think what they were saying is there is a lot of cool (and powerful) stuff in the EU, which Disney chose to ignore and come up with their own bullshit, which they listed. Taking a stab at Disney more than this debate.

JamesTBagg, to lemmyshitpost in Gaslighting

No it doesn’t. How does it prove Deckard is a replicant versus proving Tyrell Corps had become just that good at replicating life. In both Blade Runner movies to prove something was replicant they had to get electron microscope close to find printing on cells. Perhaps Rachael was just that human. Unless it was explained somewhere I missed.

JamesTBagg, to world in A two-state solution is the only way for Saudi Arabia to recognize Israel: Diplomat

You mean, quite literally what Saudi Arabia is asking for?

JamesTBagg, to world in 'I saw one terrorist standing by a bed pleading 'no, no,' I killed him with four bullets'

To be fair, you don’t know what you’re talking about.

1, Hamas is a political party, literally voted into power. Not all members would be militia.
B, Even if the man was of the militant arm, in full uniform and battle-rattle, killing a surrendered foe is murder and a war crime.

This coming from my experience as a Marine having acted in war zones in Iraq and Afghanistan, that were occupied by many civilians and combatants.
