“Where do you draw the line? And again, who exactly gets to decide? We could say the same thing about, for example, the gay community. They are a traditionally marginalized minority, so they should fit right into your argument.”

I’m not necessarily arguing for or against here honestly, mainly just pointing out that “OMG WHO WOULD WE EVEN TALK TO?!?! WHERE WOULD WE START?!?!?” is an absurdly stupid argument for this one.

The first Google result for “Cree Nation representative” is for the Grand Council of the Crees, and without even clicking into it the preview text is “The Board of Directors is made up of the Chairman of the Cree Nation Government (CNG), who is also the Grand Chief, Mathew Coon Come, and the ...”

Sure did actually. Let’s be generous and say that I only average three other games a year that need it. That’s $5 per month, divided by 4, x36 months = an extra $45, so $105 for 3 years vs. $420. $400 really, because the xpacs were usually $40 not $60 iirc.

No, you are paying $420 for three years. $20 for 3 months doesn’t seem so bad now, eh?

A few random focus groups told them that there is a market for linear games with a strong story. The actual market for the last 5 years told them otherwise.

Both of the new Wolfensteins were great, but EA isn’t looking to make 800,00 copy selling games with their most expensive licensed IP, they are looking to make 5mil+ copy selling games.

PHEV make GREAT sense in the US, practically speaking. Most people living in a city that is drivable by electric charge, but tons of people travel multiple hours for holidays, or weekend/monthly trips where gas range is needed.

No, that’s an easy one for them. They can focus on the direct question, and ignore the implication. Their answer is “No, that dress does not make your butt look big” because they know that is in fact your big butt that makes your butt look big.

to answer one important question: does Cayde fuck or nah?

Pulse Rifles and Sidearms are terrible, and Scout Rifles are awesome. Anyone who reps something other than Dead Orbit is actively campaigning for the forces of evil.

That’s probably not a very likely expectation.

I am both rich and weird enough to buy one, so I did!

We did a ton of tomato blind taste tests prior to opening the Neapolitan pizza restaurant. We went through 40(ish?) different brands of San Marzano (DOP certified) and “San Marzano Style” tomatoes. From THAT ONE that is in every grocery store, to half a dozen brands that you have to know a guy in Italy to buy and ship…

And that’s it! Literally everything else was just fine.

The only way that MS is going to get itself back into a competitive position with Sony at this point is if they’re willing to take a bath on the cost of the hardware.

Well, mostly hate, if I’m honest. Sure, they can be convenient, but all too often they manage to cause complicated issues and hassles that could so easily be resolved if the damn car just demanded to have a key jammed in it somewhere.

What’s her name?

That’s a great method with great results, but I’m not sure you understand what the word “easier” means.

It’s a beautiful, terrible and heartwrenching story. But, if any story is going to actually get through the layers of Republican cognitive dissonance, it’s not going to be a story about a married gay snowboarding photographer from a liberal stronghold.
