“that reporter from NBC fact checked him on his claims that he had the largest EC margin since Reagan”

Really, not the bit where he asked, condescendingly, “You know what uranium is?” only to follow it up by explaining: “This thing called nuclear weapons and other thing. Lots of things are done with uranium, including some bad things. Nobody talks about that.” Thereby proving he didn’t know what uranium was.

Why? The bleach is making things better in this situation.

Too gentle. More like:

I dunno. This is what happens when the president has cognitive issues that prevent him from being able to focus on anything (an issue he’s always had), and doesn’t give a shit anyways, so he comes into every situation knowing zero about what’s going on. Also, he’s not articulate or smart. He can only crudely…

I was listening to the press conference, amazed at how Trump failed to answer a single question* - one would be disappointed in a middle school student who responded to questions about a subject they were supposed to know something about the way Trump did. When he got to the hate-crimes question and started talking…

How can you tell? He’s always been a really stupid, ignorant asshole. Nothing’s changed in that regard.

There’s also the whole cultural difference created by different sized homes and urban density. In the US, homes are larger and people do more of their entertaining and leisure activities at home; in Japan, as in most urban areas around the world, people spend more time outside their small houses and apartments -…

Well, I don’t know if it’s about “claiming” so much as about it being a symbol that has significance to racists, now. Enough of that and it becomes tainted by association, of course...

I guess the hand signal is just another Pepe reference in this context?

Is that why Pepe does it? So now Pepe mirroring Trump has become its own sign?

I’m not sure google is our friend on this one - I did some cursory searching, and couldn’t find much. The claim is that it’s associated with Pepe - reinforced by the Pepe references in the tweet itself. Pepe does seem to sometimes be depicted making the “a-ok” sign, but I’m not sure it makes the sign itself a racist…

Watching JK take the piss out of assholes is always delightful. She does it very well.

Yeah, those are all reasons why the app store is a total CF. I wonder if their treatment of Nintendo wasn’t intended to benefit developers as much as it was them. And I also wonder if relatively low sales numbers for the watch and tv unit have killed interest in developing for them - after all, when (in the rare…

“they do rush into some things, but on the other side they also try to constantly improve things”

It’s hard to know what “recoupable” means here, though. Potentially it’s just a fee that gets taken out of their percentage of sales, which for most developers just means a fee, because they’ll never see $5000 worth of sales, much less however many sales are required to have Steam’s cut be $5000.

“This is actually a tough problem and no one has cracked it perfectly yet”

Valve’s statement made it sound like they’re only going to deal with game development companies - i.e. developers who have at least formed an LLC or the like. Which seems like it would be at least as big an impediment to student projects, micro-indies or free games as any sort of fee would be. Though a fee by itself…

Man, it’s almost like a man whose knowledge of politics, federal government, foreign policy, current events, economics, science and well, pretty much everything else could be bested by a smart middle school student was unsuited to be president! A man, moreover, who made it clear he had neither the interest nor the…

“Yup, and this is why I stand by my unpopular opinion that the Electoral College should be free from the popular vote.”
