It doesn’t matter if it’s a Japanese publisher or not. If you operate an network service of this scale, it’s incumbent upon you to have a clear and documented way for people to provide you with details of platform vulnerabilities.

If it’s ripping off a regular amount of money, it’s shitty. If it’s ripping off 3.5 million, there’s no such thing as a person who spent that kind of money on Pokemon cards who doesn’t deserve to be ripped off.

Man, if I made a parody of myself killing a coworker and a supervisor there’d be serious consequences. It’s kinda crazy that I’d be held to a higher standard than someone in one of the highest government offices in the country.

I can’t think of any other job where you could do this without being fired.

I mean try it at your job with one of your colleagues, if you’re feeling certain about that position.

He knows exactly what he was doing and who that would rile up. He fully understood he was contributing to an already bad atmosphere of violence

The fuck it is. I'm sure you'd be fine if a co-worker you hated that also hated you made a video like that and sent it to everyone in the company you work for 

No, it wasn’t. This idea that “It’s a joke, bro!” is an excuse for being a despicable person needs to stop. He sent out a video clip depicting him violently killing one of his work colleagues. I know if I sent something like that in the company Slack, I’d be extremely lucky to only get a stern talking to and removal…

I would also like to know which shitbags thought this was no big deal.

If by “widely” you mean a handful of lunatics, sure.

Can we all just admit that republicans are fucking terrible and not be surprised when they do shit that is abhorrent?

Those ads were such a surreal part of the game for me, one minute you’re fighting the darkness, the next you’re grabbing your Verizon phone and looking around for energizer batteries. I think I will miss them though, it added a bit of strangeness to a strange game.

It passed that bar a while ago. Hello Games is just showing off at this point.

How the fuck is making game guides for three-decade-old games “pulling one over on Nintendo”? If they wanted to make money off of official guides, they should’ve done so back then. Also, they did, and they’re out of print. How does this in any way harm Nintendo?

Apples to apples, the ‘US states vs European countries’ thing doesn’t work in the United States’ favour. Across 447M population and 27 constituent states, with ‘state’ scores weighted by their population, the European Union still manages to average a freedom score of 90.2 compared to the US score of 83.

Which unfortunately means there are states that, if they were listed separately, would be ranked even worse than the national rank.

I mean it’s just nationalism for the most part. Which most American’s like to dress up as “patriotism” because it makes it sound nicer. But nope. It’s nationalism. American’s are so obsessed with telling everyone else that their country is the best that they haven’t noticed how badly it smells.

The US is ranked 61st in Freedom House’s most recent Freedom in the World report, about on the same level as Romania and Poland. Americans have this weird belief their country is the pinnacle of freedom when it’s not even close.

America. Land of the “free”.

This sucks, for the employees, for anyone who enjoyed their games, for the people of Texas and nationwide who are increasingly endangered by this shit.
