If saving money was their higher concern, maybe there would be fewer court hearings in the first place...

Here’s my problem with that illustration: who kills themselves two whole days before their birthday? Everybody knows you buy your ticket for a night on the Galactic Railroad ON your birthday.

Any good steak requires a shit tonne of butter.

Here’s my smelly take: yes, the census is currently being printed without the citizenship question, but — and this is largely because Trump just says the quiet parts out loud — it will in fact be on the census in 2020. What they acknowledged this week was the writ of the Constitution, where they have to get that…

Please, let him come out dressed in that whole Uncle Sam getup with the striped pants.

Ah the REALISM complaint! Bannercall of incel Gamergaters everywhere. We should all fall to our filthy knees and THANK GOD for these champions of REALISM in a game where I can run around with no pants on and hit people with a lute.

Where is his other sword?

Oh god. Now all I can think about is how you would make "giraffe butter".

Authoritarian respects authoritarian. Neither does anything beyond consolidating their own power. Everyone else be damned.

Ellison deep cut! That's like my favorite trash sci-fi story!

Laundering through tickets, exactly like his inauguration. I don’t think this man is going to stop until he is behind bars.

** It may not have just been a money thing. But in my experience, you end up going this route when the game engine is made first, and the netcode last. If you want a game that elegantly hides latency, you have to build the “rollback”-type ability into the engine from the start.

* It’s waiting to hear the response back from every player before it lets anyone go onto the next frame. The theory is that if every input is applied for every player on the same frame, then the state of the game will be the same for all the players. Thus, avoiding having to write any sort of latency-hiding netcode.

They did frame-sync multiplayer: The least-friendly-to-any-amount-of-lag form of netcode. It is especially terrible at scaling for each player in the session (beyond the second player).

Fun point of information for comparison: mobile games salivate for even a 15% retention after 4 weeks.

Star for calling it a PSX.
