The older I get the angrier at get at superhero movies and such like this where they are depicted destroying people’s vehicles. Like that’s some people’s entire livelyhoods and ability to get to work etc, and superdouche decides to just pick it up and chuck it at some supervillain that isn’t even phased by it and now…

If they didn’t use Photoshop then you could still see the crane and wires...

I genuinely don’t understand what people like about Orange is the New Black.

it was built sustainably in the most literal definition of the phrase.

No it is not ethically fine.  Theft is theft.

no it isn’t. if you hate her that much you just shouldn’t consume her content. plain and simple. advocating stealing (not just from her but everybody involved) makes you the same or even worse (depends on pov).

Feel bad for this dude for being temporarily without income, but working at GameStop is BARELY income. That company is an absolute joke as an employer and this kid is 100% better off. It’ll suck for a couple weeks until he finds literally anything else, but I refuse to believe anyone leaves GameStop and ends up in a…

“Pediatricans do not take calling CPS lightly. And a CPS visit doesn’t warrant a child’s removal from their home unless the child truly is in danger. I’ve been in practice for over 10 years, and I can count the number of times on one hand in which I’ve called CPS.”

Then why isn't the baby in the hospital now? If the child is in legal custody of someone other than her parents because they wouldn't admit her to the hospital, then why hasn't that happened yet?

Real fun how the elderly in this country not only have on average a higher net worth, were raised to have more trust in individuals, didn’t grow up with the internet so they don’t have the critical eye necessary to spot these scams, and grow increasingly senile every day due to age.

Jesus Christ console exclusivity has little to do with it. There’s ALWAYS been prominent console exclusives with video games.

The only one to blame is GameStop. I mean its a store that sells games and game related toys, it should be my favorite store. But it isn’t and its because of their terrible treatment of customers, where they see them as potential subscription and warrantee purchasers, not people.

Oh yeah no it’s 100% a grift. 

Star Citizen, the original NFT exchange.

I crowd-funded this game with a $60 ship and have the member card sitting in my desk. This game is all grift. I built a custom computer in anticipation of this game, and have refreshed it twice-over since.  I’m not interested in an endless stream of modular content.  I just wanted a good campaign featuring Gary Oldman…

It’s not an accident that there’s no-one saying “finish it”. If Chris Roberts wanted it finished, it’d be finished. The dude has had over half a billion dollars.

There’s a fascinating crossover between Soviet-style useless building and US capitalist pork barrel stuff. So it’s not as strange as you might think. Both systems can and do enter a similar failure mode.

Callisto’s does, yes. Most budgets we see do not.

Absolute bollocks. Callisto was also severely mismanaged, and even things like GTAV only cost $150m to develop.

Yeah the guy claiming it’s not a grift is a moron, frankly.
