QEII was not Queen Victoria. She did not preside over the “British Empire” that Anya decries, but rather over the decolonization that followed it’s decline into the modern commonwealth.

AAA games haven’t been $20 in decades, if ever they were.

Hardly angry. Just pointing out your factual errors. 

I can’t speak for them all - but the sentiment here is we’re more or less OK with the royalty being as it is, an absentee grandparent.  Though that may boil over should Charles remain the King. 

The Royals are still very much beloved in their former territories that form the Commonwealth.  Even if they are no longer the Royals of England, they are still the Monarchs in Canada, for example. 

Because the US never properly implemented the COVID measures to begin with. 

Given I’ve seen people who genuinely believe that say it without skipping a beat, the sarcasm is a little too close to the truth. 

It’s not even in the top -50- best selling games of all time. You might want to temper your hype. In fact all of the ‘Souls’ like games including Sekiro combined is still less than just Terraria alone (at some 45 million copies sold)

It’s worse than even that.

And conversely I ignore any game that forces difficulty onto me. From Software will never see my dollars until they put an easy mode into their games - which keeps them to being a niche (albeit successful one) genre developer.

Badly. Since patching the game requires massive costs per token (as the Wolf Game debacle shows)

It also downplays how blissfully min/max modern gamer culture is now.

Explain how it’s perfectly reasonable?

Nope, clearly my existence proves you wrong. More importantly someone told that to you and you probably just stared out into the distance and took it in like a drone.

Self Defense is still violence. It’s justifiable violence, in that you did not start it, but it’s still violence.

I bet he means the Catholic Church.  Cause a lot of far-right groups /hate/ Catholics.

oh it’s looking more and more like Trump will be indicted. The writing is on the wall for Putin’s downfall (at this stage - it’s a matter of whether the entire world propping up Ukraine will outlast Russia/North Korea/China.).

ToR isn’t a provider, though right ?  My understanding it’s more a protocol to the ‘dark web’, which is basically a deathknell to these kinds of groups.

Sort of.  The *correct* analogy is that you cannot falsely cry “fire” in a movie theatre - you absolutely *can* if there is a fire.

The last is not true, unfortunately:
