i understand the allure of the bike but i got off the steve mcqueen bus a long time ago. dude was a turd of a human being. the only reason he wasnt murdered with sharon tate was because he found another woman closer by to cheat on his wife with.

Don’t forget Activision’s habit of hiring war criminals, torturers and Kevin Spacey.

I saw a YouTube video where someone went to an oil change place and the car quickly blew up afterwards. They had it towed back and the shop was like “Nothing to do with us, the oil level is fine”. They took it to Ford who were suspicious cats. Ford pulled the oil filter and it was bone dry. They original shop hadn’t…

There is a general presumption that there is a normal or fair profit to make and to make more than that is...abnormal, or unfair.

That’s just a fancy way to avoid responsibility. He’s pretending he had nothing to do with it but in his mighty generosity will take responsibility anyway. He’s just trying to look good.

If we do nothing and maintain that status quo, with no laws that aid, encourage, or mandate it, it will take a long time. If there was even a decent push for some basic laws, like some being pushed locally that makes it so a landlord can’t reject reasonable requests by a tenant to pay to install a charging station,…

Next time you play ME2 try infiltrator. They get a few seconds of bullet time when you aim with your sniper scope. It feels really good to pop out of cover, nail your shot, then get back right before the storm of bullets hit you. It’s extremely satisfying. The stealth power is really nice as well, you just pop it and…

I doubt it will have any meaningful consequences. Activision loves money after all; they are not going to terminate management staff they deem profitable. I bet that these evaluations will be decided by “but the manager said he didn’t do anything, so we are going to believe him,” then pulling a Ubisoft by firing a few…

On the bright side you’ll suck a little money out of one evil company instead of giving a little money to another one. 🌈

Blizzard is building up a track record for abusing human rights.

Ensuring that we have a safe and welcoming work environment is my highest priority. The leadership team has heard you loud and clear.

Yeah, pretty much that. Maybe I'll badge my Trophy Truck as a Tatra.

The LS makes it far less cool than it would have been with the original, screaming, V10 behind the seats.

Never played ME, but in KOTOR1 I played through as light side and dark side. And alot of the time the dark side options bugged me because they were little more than just “I’m gonna be a jerk”.

Define end-of-life for an EV.

I think people want meaningful choices that are less obvious good vs obvious bad. what if, like in the real world, you actually can’t achieve real peace, just illusory, or achieving peace requires you to actually give up something? Then probably choices would be different. But most games actually reward you a lot for…

If anything, this is proof of what happens when the choices presented are black and white. Morally grey and difficult choices are far more compelling than Nice Guy Vs. Dickhead. Fallout New Vegas has such great replayabilty thanks in part to the main factions having some nuance to them. Do you punish an entire group fo…

The problem isn’t so much the illusion of choice, it was an issue of the writers being unable to keep personal bias out of the scenario branches. The choice between Paragon and Renegade is supposed to be similar to the DnD alignments, where you’re always a Good character but whether you’re Lawful or Chaotic is…

I think they started selling FSD in 2016, theres going to be cars which are going to hit end-of-life soon without getting the originally promised feature. That has class-action written all over it.

Side note, for all those people complaining that modern RPG’s lack the meaningful choices of a classic Bioware game, this is really compelling evidence that what those people really wanted was the illusion of choice....
