Yeah the Times was far more measured than I can manage to be. If you are an individual praising Vladimir Putin’s treatment of his citizens, you can indeed still be sexually assaulted, but you impugn the credibility of everything you say because at best you are a remarkably dumb and gullible individual and at worst you…

Well that sounds bizarre as hell.

And uhhh, if you really have to sell, consider that a juicy concession now might save you from having to wait a lot longer for an even lower price down the road.

The worst part about removing that line is they gave you an excuse to avoid talking about the fact that the rest of the Times write up is a very good explanation of all the reasons that mainstream news outlets did not cover Tara Reade’s allegations as “reported” by the Intercept and a useful idiot.

Another sticking point players have with Vanguard is that it’s given administrator-level privileges on their machines, further opening the possibility for malicious attacks should a shady person or persons compromise the anti-cheat system.

Hang tough. If your manager isn’t a complete doof, they’ll figure out how to manage people remotely eventually.

I mean, the ESRB may call itself a “regulator” but that doesn’t make it so in any meaningful sense of the word. They don’t have enforcement power that the developers couldn’t override if they collectively felt like it.

Yep this is basically my routine. I also go at store open at 6 a.m.. While it does help with actually being able to get a non-panic purchase packet of TP/Paper Towel, the fact is that even though other people are now doing that, it’s still way less foot traffic at that time than if I go at my usual time right after…

Car-less New Yorkers are rolling their eyes at me right now.

The quote said it all. The ESRB isn’t a “regulator”. It exists to explain to parents things in a way that’s palatable for gaming companies what’s in the game. If the ESRB gets too lax, and doesn’t explain it well enough, parents complain and cut their kids off, which causes gaming companies to go back to the ESRB to…
