Yeah, it’s always funny that these gamer dudes align themselves with these right wing guys who will eventually come for game content once they're done with the other stuff they're going after.

Because it’s fun to watch bad things happen to evil people.

Because the rise of a conservative fascist is relevant to all Americans. And you’re kidding yourself if you think he wouldn’t start policing video games.

Love to see it.

This all made perfect sense when I hit the word Texas.

they’re also called Blizzards and other things... and are sometimes marketed for their thickness (“if we don’t hand it to you upside down it’s free!”)

I don’t usually do snarky, but this is all so depressing and ridiculous, it seemed appropriate.

Dealers stocking only high end cars, Manufactures only making high end models. They both say “see people are not buying lower priced cars”

No, it is weird and fitting for the New York Times to produce a ham fisted profile for people who like to pretend that they are clever. The article was no more than a bad “on one hand and on the other hand” college essay. It is in no way relevant that she is a mother. That she cares for her dog does not give any…

Induction stoves already solve this problem. Instead of using resistance to heat a metal coil, which heats the glass surface, which heats the pan, they use magnetism to directly heat a steel or cast iron pan. If you turn the burner off, it immediately stops heating the pan. The glass surface of the stove only gets hot…

It’s not stolen just because it was sold early. My local Target puts shit out early all the damn time. Hot Wheels, Lego, Black Series figures, etc.  Nobody in that store cares what a street date is.

There’s no evidence it was stolen. Further, even if it was, sending a bunch of mercenaries to tresspass in the guy’s home, threaten him with violence, and seize it is still a crime.

OKay, but what right does a private security force have to resolve that?

I don’t know what the legal line is here, but was it stolen? Sounds like it was sold from a shop a few weeks early. I’m not sure street dates are legally protected beyond whatever contract the distributor signed when they bought the Magic cards wholesale. My guess is the legal option WOTC had would’ve been a breach of…

This man committed a crime and confessed to it. There’s no debate there, and he served an appropriate amount of time behind bars.

Also LMAO that this is any kind of gamble. The guy is already a multi-millionaire, married to another multi-millionaire, at worst he goes back to his CAA job after a year. It’s not like he mortgages his house on this outrageous gamble. When you have this kind of money, of course you take in the 1 in a 100 shot at…

I don’t really agree with this take, the systems in place in BotW are definitely meant to encourage creativity and different solutions, and the survival elements were clearly never the focus (no hunger meter for example)

I like Sanderson’s books, they’re definitely popular because they’re accessible and competently delivered as opposed to dazzling the reader with prose but there’s no shame in being the MCU of fantasy books.

RE4 Remake removes a crane game; FF7 Remake adds one. Two very different approaches to classic game remakes (whether they add or remove a crane game).

I laughed out loud when I read the “or you can choose a cut of the royalties” line. Like any audiobook being developed by ACX or other independent producers is making anyone any royalties. Let’s be realistic.
