It shouldn’t happen but I can’t say I’m surprised given they’ve repeatedly bait and switched for months over every little thing to do with the obvious scam they’re pulling.

Apparently it’s also a result of Mihoyo no longer actually really communicating with the player base when they used to be really active in doing so. That it seems the company no longer really puts the effort in reaching out and doing stuff, while putting more focus and attention into other games they do.

I’ll go back to the McDonald’s spicy crispy chicken sandwich as my go-to in the chicken sandwich wars.

First of all, I want to say that I’m absolutely all for people enjoying games and being able to play and experience them. I’m all about inclusivity and, particularly, accessibility. As a person with a physical disability, I understand that not being able to participate in something is more than just frustrating or…

Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil!

From my impressions of Phil Spencer over the years (in articles). I think he is one of the few executives that truly understands gamers. He’s making smart moves that are pushing things forward rather than holding them back. I would love to know what he does to get the pulse of the gaming community.

If only they cared this much about their own employees.

Epic can still get fucked. Throwing around Fortnite money to make the PC space genuinely worse when it’s finally on the rise after being neglected for multiple console generations is a shit move, and supporting it, as well as Tencent, makes the people defending their practices a part of the problem.

The retroactive blaming of Al Gore for SCOTUS refusing Florida to count it’s votes is infuriating. Like I get that “Al Gore, weak, limp-wristed liberal lanyard” was a popular image among the GOP (and Maureen Dowd) in 2000, but it sucks that people on the left decided to take it up, too.

Um, you can drag Al Gore for being stuffy, for being unwilling to own the successes of the Clinton era, and for being so moderate that Ralph Nader got a significant fraction of the Democratic vote. But let’s make sure we don’t criticize him for losing. Because he actually won. The Supreme Court intervened in the…

Neverland, the developer of Rune Factory, did indeed go bankrupt, but Marvelous owns the rights to the series.

Correlation is not causation. Without data about why medical bankruptcies are increasing, you cannot say the ACA is responsible for bankruptcies increasing. We can’t even say there were more bankruptcies without knowing the number that percentage is of.

The ACA was never designed to prevent medical bankruptcies. The ACA was designed to increase overall coverage, by getting affordable coverage for the poor or those who can’t get employer-sponsored coverage (essentially.)

“Physicians for a National Health Program, whose founders are among the study’s authors, it also found that people who reported a medical reason for bankruptcy “were two to three times more likely to skip needed medical care and medications.”

This kind of article is exactly why people are starting to question Splinter.

I’m going to save my giant celebration for when these states who are passing these measures actually get the lines drawn (like, it says in Utah their legislature will have to approve them. What if they just pull an NC and keep fighting it until a court gives them a chance?)
