You do realize that none of that has anything to do with what this trial is about.  It’s not a tort case, it’s defamation.  The only thing about Heard that matters is whether she knowingly lied that she was abused and that Depp never hit her.  Proving that she lied is near impossible since proving what a person is…

Part of the problem with those takes is people think the case is about who abused who. It’s not. This is a defamation case and so what Depp needs to prove is that Heard knowingly lied about what she wrote and she targeted at Depp to ruin his rep. Which honestly is nearly impossible. Heard abusing Depp was little…

So, despite all the back and forth over who abused who, the case is Depp suing Heard for civil defamation. In the US, the bar for Depp to prove this (as the burden is on him) is very high due to the first amendment. It’s also worth noting that he also has to prove that not only did he not physically abuse her but that…

She is on tape admitting to hitting him to stop him drunkenly crushing her toes against a door. Wow. How abusive of her. And oh shit, she hasn’t been able to give that money to charity amid being sued repeatedly by her ex. I forgot that defending yourself in multiple libel and defamation trials is totally free!

It’s not exhaustive but I think Legal Eagle’s YouTube video is a pretty good TL;DR rundown. And pretty hands-off on taking any particular “side”.

Yes. I wanna give him a high five after we rub our penises together. Be afraid

What a coincidence. I was just mentioning him earlier.

Not sure how. Apple has shown time and again that they have no interest in gaming. If they decided to make all EA games exclusive to Macs, EA would do nothing but bleed money. I guess they could make have EA make iOS exclusives but, again, what’s the point? iOS already has the dominant market share in the western…

Yeah, Acti B. has been beating out EA in all around scumminess for a good while now.

In whatever can be passed as fairness to EA, they’re probably looking mostly for a way to get cheaper licensing deals; probably the best way for them to make more money, since they certainly can’t make something like Elden Ring.

Yep. “We want to retire now so buy our garbage before we ruin it”.

You prefer all EA IP to only release on Mac? Because that is definitely what Apple would do.

As "evil" as EA was, Activision should have won that award since forever. 

Nintendo very rarely buys studios and if they do its ones they’ve worked with for decades and were basically exclusively making games for them anyway.

Prospective buyer: “Hmmmm... has your company won any awards?”

Only if they wanted the assets/IP of EA. EA’s current projects and work is aimed at making and selling games over many (mostly) non-Apple platforms.

... or some guy called Beardsley, who lives in a Cave near Stonehenge.

Pretty soon, all video game companies will be owned by Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Tencent, or Embracer Group.

“Others say that EA is primarily interested in a merger arrangement that would allow Wilson to remain as chief executive of the combined company.”

When can we switch back to the good timeline?
