I’m all for a non-means tested vaccination bonus.

You could certainly make the argument that police departments, having been given the opportunity to police themselves, have failed and therefore don’t deserve an opportunity to continue doing so, but I would really ask how effective self-policing was ever going to be without the real threat of being policed by an…

Option 1) Get one or two shots for free that will prevent you from getting a debilitating or perhaps fatal illness and will enable the country as a whole to get back to normal.

Every time I read one of these stories, the consultant in me comes out and I think “If police unions and departments actually stood up and said “There are bad cops and we’re going to make a good faith effort to A) get them off the streets, B) get them off the force, and C) keep them from ending up somewhere else.”…

I mean, US police already deploy sonic and directed energy weapons as part of riot control operations.

Facebook’s continual failure to reckon with the fact that their core business model amplifies extremist content will ensure that this happens again and again and again and again.

Republican women used the ladder Democratic women pulled down for them so they could get enough power to pull it up after them.

In the business world, we talk a lot about ROI - return on investment.

Personal liberties stop when those liberties infringe on the right of someone else to live.

The issue with setting up solar farms on top of flat-topped mountains is A) you have to get the solar panels UP the mountains, and B) most of the Southwest is flat, arid, receives a plethora of direct sunshine, and is much closer to manufacturing centers for solar panels. This, incidentally, is why that area is also…

Pain is the only teacher.

The entire coal industry employs fewer people than Arby’s. However, the coal industry is important to Pennsylvania, which remains a crucial swing state for any Presidential campaign.

In Destiny’s case, there is at least transmog coming next season, and some of the armor does look pretty cool.

A lack of self-revives was the most frustrating thing about The Division, Anthem, The Division 2, and now Outriders, and is the one area where Destiny continues to shine. With rare exception, if you die in Destiny you can respawn. You may have to wait a bit, but you can do it. In TD, TD2, Anthem, and Outriders, if you…

So, here’s what gets me.

Actually, it’s the opposite. You know what pisses me off more than anything with complex loot systems? Inscrutable numbers.

Snipers are the tip of the Shitty Enemy Behavior and Composition iceberg.

I agree that they’re two different games doing two different things. Destiny has a roadmap that, as of their most recent announcements, stretches out for another three years. By that point, we might not even be talking about Outriders at all.

Ignoring the combat for a minute, because I think that’s down to personal preference, let’s talk about the endgame.

I think there’s good arguments to be made in favor of both quantity as well as quality of enemies. Doom excels because it throws A LOT of enemies at you, but very few are spongy and can generally be taken out easily with the tools you have. Horizon Zero Dawn has a few MASSIVE enemies that require a strategy to take…
