Just to be clear, claims of “monopoly” were in reference to a monopoly in the United States, a claim that is less concerned by “who has access to well-known Japanese developers” and more about “what percentage of the total market is controlled by a single entity.”

Eh, you’re missing a bit of detail.

The problem isn’t really with Frostbite itself, it was what they tried to make Frostbite do. After all, it was designed for FPS games, but then EA brass mandated that Frostbite be used for all of their other games. They took something that was very good at one thing, and make it do…

So Dave is clayton bigsby without the hood, fuck him, he was shit when he came back from Africa, he can go fuck himself.

Eh, he’ll probably just buy a cheap Chinese market car priced around $15K, slap fancy plastics on it and price it at $30K. It won’t be road legal, but idiots will still buy it because it looks cool.

1st Gear: I can’t help but feel like the affordable Tesla is bait and switch vaporware. Musk has been promising a reasonably priced Tesla is coming in the near future pretty much since he bought Tesla, and we’re still not really any closer to it.

Terminator 2?

As the article wisely points out: I won’t even begin to unpack the levels of a bunch of pushing-forty white women talking about bullying a young Black girl, or using the words “our men,” in this particular clip.

Meh. Takedown articles about the Kardashians are a dime a dozen. I’m curious as to why this one in particular has you on the defense? They don’t get a free pass simply because they’re... women? Shitty and stupid behavior is still shitty and stupid behavior. 

“That’s weird, despite our policy of protecting all our games with user-adverse anti-modding protections and DRM backed up by threats of aggressively suing anyone who would try anyway, the modding scene hasn’t flourished on any of our products.”

It’s just you.

It’s not a pyramid scheme, it’s a pump and dump. Different kind of scam. You’re trying to hype something up, sell it for a lot of money to someone before they realize it is not worth as much.

Great. Now I can’t stop picturing what a swastika-penis would look like.

Fuck off, ben shapiro

This is, to my memory, the absolute dumbest take I’ve ever seen on this constellation of websites. It is a poem - a pure distillation of stupidity. It contains so many fallacies, both explicitly and implicitly, that I only wish I could ever hope to provide such a density of information in one comment - Such a thing…

Teslas differentiate themselves on all sorts of attributes in which they’re pretty unique. You’re mentioning the really big and tangible ones; the giggle factor with some of their features (dog mode, ludicrous mode, what have you) and the acceleration boner with the higher-powered versions play into that as well.…

And Tesla has to appeal to the average consumer if they want to enjoy continued success. When all the major automakers start selling their EVs, one can assume at least most of them will be built to the standards that we’ve all come to expect from new cars. I’m also curious how an onslaught of new EVs will impact…

In 2020 they developed and released 5 games...CoD Warzone, MW2 Remastered, THPS 1+2, Crash 4, and CoD BLOPS Cold War...and they made EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS. Cold War, which came out in November, and Modern Warfare (the 2019 version) were the top 2 best selling games of 2020. THPS 1+2 was the 20th best selling game of…

Yeah this data feels kinda useless.

I’ve said it before, but Chappelle today is worlds away from Killin’ Them Softly (or The Chappelle Show) era Chappelle, and it hasn’t been an improvement. He went from showing sympathy for Monica Lewinsky at a time when almost no one had sympathy for her (and despite a chorus of NO’s from the audience) and getting…

You can’t pick and choose who you’re going to make fun of.
