“PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles are still notoriously difficult to acquire....but also because of scalpers who can buy consoles and sell them for a much higher price.”

This is not true. Demand is greater than supply. If there were no scalpers, just as many people would not be able to get consoles/GPUs. Differe…

For fuck’s sake what is wrong with you?

They’ve launched Warhammer Horror, a horror imprint of their Black Library novels. They also launched Warhammer Crime. 

Some of the tongue in cheek is coming back! I highly recommend the recent novels The Infinite and the Divine, Rites of Passage, and Brutal Kunnin’. All very humorous novels. I particularly like Rites of Passage in which the main character is basically all the Golden Girls combined and put in charge of a Navigator…

Angron was named after a frequent customer at the original GW’s local pub that was dubbed Angry Ron because he was angry all the time. This is not a joke. There is also Ferrus Manus of the Iron Hands, a primarch who has an iron hand, is named iron hands (latin), and who leads a legion named the Iron Hands.

No doubt there are a lot of issues with this game, but it isn’t nearly as bad as the zeitgeist says it is. Current gaming culture is rife with toxicity, bandwagoning, and entitlement. Everybody feels like they need to pile on with the most extreme take at all times. Once enough people are complaining about something…

Am I the only one who remembers the Soprano’s ending with Tony going to get his mail and having a heart attack outside on the street? Like I swear to god I remember that ending and how it fades to black before it showed if he died or not and how pissed everybody was and the endless think pieces about it? Like I know…

It’s the remix to ignition...

For those who don’t follow Games Workshop closely, they had entirely new management take over around 2015. The new management has done a incredible job turning a lot of things around that were previously not doing to great, most notably Black Library. They also stated unequivocally that they knew the licensed games…

I can remember Bawls being a HUGE deal at Quakecon back in like 99-02 era.

General partnerships, sole proprietorships, etc still have to be legally registered with the state and IRS. If he is just filing as self-employed 1099, which he really shouldn’t be but you never know, I don’t believe he can deduct the mods salary from his gross. 

My understanding, and again I could be wrong, is that if you are a 1099 employee you can deduct your personal expenses such as phone/internet/office space you use to work but not another person’s salary. For that you do need to setup a legal business. And yeah I would hope his accountant does everything correctly as…

If he was dumb enough to not set all this up as a business it might not be. If Twitch pays a company he has created and then that company pays out the moderators then you are correct. If Twitch pays him directly he owes income on that total check, the government doesn’t care if you decide to pay somebody else with the…

I lived in Waco for a while and waited tables at a restaurant Chip and Joanna went to almost every Saturday night and I typically was the one waiting on their table. This was years before they had their show. They were always nice and largely the same as you see them on TV, the personalities are real and not made up…

This is certainly true for the type of disasters we’ve had in the modern era, but for some of the scenarios people are prepping for I don’t think it holds water. Katrina, as an example, was apocalyptic for those in the affected area, but all those people that helped and shared resources knew that things were normal a…

It’s done better than most evil paths in RPG games. Don’t skip it.

The combat in this game is great. It’s actually got some ex Turbine Asheron’s Call developers on the team and if you remember how PVP worked in that it definitely feels like an evolved form of that combat. Asheron’s Call PVP is the best MMO PVP there ever was and I really hope they do another Spellbreak game that’s a…

Yes, you absolutely can. It depends on the brand of seeds and how much washing the company did of them. I hit 3 years of sobriety yesterday! I can definitely say that at times when nothing else was available I would buy large bags of poppy seeds and get super high off them by making tea. In other words you are washing…

I came here to say there is a vasectomy doctor here in Austin named Richard Chopp, yes his name is Dr. Dick Chopp. He really missed an opportunity naming his practice Dr. Dick Chopp’s Dick Chop Shop.

Note: I actually do wash my hands after I go, but I like playing devil’s advocate because this always gets people riled as hell
