The use of bots to buy up stock isn’t the issue, it’s a symptom, with the cause simply being an ever-growing awareness among folks of the distance between an item’s retail price and the price the wealthy and lazy are willing to spend to get their hands on the latest thing.

Good fucking riddance.

Tip: Take a nap before you start.

Exactly. Because no developer has ever made a game more grindy or less rewarding to push microtransactions over “earning”. Nah, paying is purely optional and definitely has no impact on any other aspect of the game and I’m not being extremely sarcastic right now.

I don’t know what this dude is talking about either. The home theater sections here are rows of 4K TVs. That’s at all four Best Buys within a half an hour drive. And that is just the regular section before you get to Magnolia’s higher-end sets. The only 1080P TVs are smaller, older ones relegated off to the side on…

Exactly. Wild how quickly people forget the past. Is it lame that we still have demos locked behind shit like this? Absolutely. But it’s nothing new.

Yep. And it’s truly incredible how many people seem to take his shit so seriously and so personally.

Same. Those may have been fine. Hell, I even tuned in to a few of them when they first started making them. But the minute the goddamned autoplay shit showed up all over the site I was done with all of it.

Facts. I picked it up on a friend’s suggestion. It’s actually garbage if you’ve ever played the original MUAs or, honestly, any other modern ARPG game.

It sounds absolutely nuts but I dig it.

This is the most Australian shit I’ve seen all year.

Most recently, he spread and endorsed baseless coronavirus conspiracy theories. He received no public punishment for this, even after another streamer, Kaceytron, got suspended over coronavirus jokes.

As a person of color I feel like everything after “master” and “slave”, which is obviously problematic, is a little bit of a stretch by white folk struggling with their own guilt. Because not once in my life have I even considered whitelist/blacklist or white hat/black hat to have anything to do with race. Granted, I c…

“I’ve grown a lot as a person...”

I know it was more of a late update to this article than simply burying the lede but the vault thing is a MUCH bigger deal than this initially let on. That is a significant chunk of content to arbitrarily lock away. And I can’t quite come up with a devent justification. The cynic in me, which is usually right when it…

I’m constantly preaching to other young(er) artists to never-fucking-ever do spec work. Not ever. I don’t care if you’ve got all the free time in the plague-stricken quarantined world. I don’t give a shit if you’re some person’s/company’s biggest fan. Not even if there’s big money at stake (I guarantee you no one is…

Nailed it. A major point of this article was illustrating exactly how it isn’t “supply and demand” at all. It’s simple scalping. Market manipulation.

Kind of bums me out that there’s no GT7 still. Fingers crossed for PS5 but I’m not that optimistic.

Exactly. This is such an obvious double-edged sword I kind of can’t believe how many people and sites are gushing about it.
