Those guys are big names but they’re not big money. Kojima, for instance, cannot afford whatever Konami’s gonna charge for the MGS IP.

Short-selling should be fucking illegal. 

People like Left were just gaming it in the other direction. Shorting a stock before intentionally trying to crash the stock is not how stocks should work and there should be a law against it.

I’m surprised nobody has him accepting petitions on this, the day of his daughter’s wedding

My point exactly.

Each US state has its own capital. Has its own constitution. Has its own legislature, usually bicameral except for Nebraska. Has its own governor and its own state police. Has its own laws. As you correctly note, they are not sovereign, as sovereignty belongs to the Federal US government.

This only applies to geoblocking within the EU which is very much our prerogative to legislate for. Anyone who doesn't want to obey EU laws within the EU is more than welcome to not do business in the EU. I'm sure Epic will be happy to fill the gap.

Until the Epic Game Store, GOG etc all offer the same games at the lower price and force Steam to come down.

The EU is essentially a proto-USA. For “EU member nation” read “US state” and you see the correlation.

This explains a lot but I will still say that even if most of the protesters didn’t have a specific plan and got swept up in the exhilaration of the moment, they were still screaming shit like “heads on pikes!” and “hang Mike Pence!” and beating a cop to death with a flag etc.

I still don’t get that Blurred Lines judgement. It sounded almost nothing alike. It’d be like The Police suing Bruno Mars for making Locked Out of Heaven sound too much like Message in a Bottle or “like a song they might write”; sure, they’re similar, but you can’t copyright a general vibe.

“Accidentally”

It’s nice to see Undead Goblin Slayer teaching Link everything he knows.

Note: with strong attacks it is possible to push the Taurus Demon off the parapet and insta-win if you manage to get in the right position.

Vibranium absorbs energy and then re-emits it in amplified form. It’s just what it does. It can basically be used to create perpetual motion devices and completely free energy. That’s why Wakandan tech always uses vibranium in the power source. It provides limitless energy if you design it right... but it requires a…

Got it. NDP is great and every other party is an evil virus of Satan. Thank you for telling me what to think.

Never mind how dumpy they look, the fact that Cap looks like he’s about to head out and crack some protester skulls is just not a good re-imagining of the character’s aesthetic.

People expect the Marvel brand to be able to sell anything but what they don’t realize is that before the MCU, the Marvel brand was just as likely to indicate soul-crushingly bad quality as good quality. I’ve seen some pretty terrible movies, TV shows, video games and books with the Marvel logo attached.

Yep, I’m of the opinion that everybody above 30 should have regular endoscopies.
