awesome_lowlander,

Oh wow, they picked up Hades. I could see some potential here, if they’re getting high quality content instead of the MTX trash.

awesome_lowlander,

Personally, I’m happy to see regulations that hold megacorps to the spirit and intent of those regulations, rather than having a dozen loopholes they can pass through. The lawyers are of course unhappy since they can’t argue in court that they met the absolute minimum letter of the law.

awesome_lowlander,

That’s over a thousand dollars!

This line I take issue with. EU penalties are possibly the most painful of all marketplaces worldwide.

Sweden, which is currently experiencing an outbreak of gum violence, has 62 fatal shootings in 2022. To put that in perspective, adjusted for population, the equivalent would be 2000 shootings in the states.

Actual number of fatal, non-suicide shootings in the states? 20000.

They have an inability to admit anything bad happens there

Don’t know which Europeans you’ve been talking to, but I live in Europe and we certainly have a lot of complaints to go around.

awesome_lowlander,

Did you reply to the wrong comment?

awesome_lowlander,

Or blame engineering for not installing a simple remote interface and order queue for the replicators.

awesome_lowlander,

My headcanon is that they have feedstocks and are just teleporting atoms around and gluing them together, maybe adding and electron here and there. If anything it’s the most consistent use of their transporters.

awesome_lowlander,

But we know that’s not how transporters work

Do we? Transporters are magic. They’ve never been logically consistent. Half the episodes either would have resolved in 5 minutes or never happened if they were.

this stuff may be just handwavy bulls#!t at

Fully agreed. Just like transporters :P

awesome_lowlander,

Yeah, he obviously can’t be a very good politician if he’s going around telling the truth like that

awesome_lowlander,

Frosthaven. Specifically the physical version

awesome_lowlander,

Megacorps

How big do you think Valve is? They’re estimated around 8 B net worth. That’s 3 orders of magnitude less than Microsoft, at 3 trillion. 8 B is chump change at the megacorp stage.

awesome_lowlander,

Do you think you would get the same buggy mess if every single publisher had 30% more budget to work with?

Has capitalism given you cause to think otherwise thus far?

“You do not call for peace and then come to a memorial site,”

Fuck off Pepe Frogface. If the Palestinians could have lived in peace none of this would ever have happened.

awesome_lowlander,

Do you see anything in my comment saying anything about Hitler and Jews? I was referencing a specific statement of his. I’d thank you not to put words in my mouth that I didn’t state myself.

awesome_lowlander,

Here’s the funny thing. Nobody bothered with nuance when reading my statement. They just took it as a flat out declaration of attack on whatever position they were holding, when in reality it was just a very limited scope statement

awesome_lowlander,

No, it’s in the context of Adams having repeatedly proven himself pro-Israel and pro-genocide. I am not an antisemist. I am anti-extremists (on both sides)

awesome_lowlander,

This would be news if it were current. At 2 years old it’s just clickbait

awesome_lowlander,

As per Wikipedia:

The UN noted that there had been arrests of homosexuals within the past three years in 2018, 2019 and 2022.

So it’s not like LGBT issues were much better under Imran Khan either.

awesome_lowlander,

I wouldn’t be surprised either, but you made it sound like things are a lot more clear cut than they actually are.

awesome_lowlander,

The guy has been driving for years without a license, and this is uplifting news? Huh? What an I missing?
