Im just a feeble minded white male, who would gladly pay any woman i hire an equal wage as any other male. But i keep hearing there is a giant wage gap. How?

Hold the guns until cleared. Done.

Yeah, this is a ridiculous argument. The Warriors are stacked, end of story. It doesn’t matter if it’s because they lucked out with draft picks, who they’ve got on the relative cheap for a little while longer. Adding Durant to an already nigh-unstoppable team was overkill. No one is saying that any team can ever take…

There is some sense to the idea that, even in losing, this aids LeBron’s legacy, because nobody in the NBA had concocted a Jordan-killer team, whereas LeBron’s singular dominance has created exactly that sort of atmosphere. You know you’re going up against him, either on the way to the finals, or at the finals…

No, he’ll get credit. Soon enough, people will only think about the championship and forget the circumstances. Also, Durant has for whatever reason always seemed to get a pass from the b-ball press. He by and large has not had to deal with tons of scrutiny for being so long without a championship, whereas the…

Look at how they played down the stretch when Durant was out with that knee injury, and I think your question is answered.

Soret swiftly defended himself, tweeting: “I completely stand for equality & inclusiveness.” Four hours later, he added, “In no way is The Last Night a game against feminism or any form of equality. A lot of things changed for me these last years.”

This is the correct take.

Yep. I don’t like this trend of games where they kind of put hints of interesting things in the world, but rely on players to fill everything in by interacting with each other. That’s never how these games really end up working. They just end up being loot grinds. And on some level, the developers know this. It’s…

Yeah, color me not enthused with these shallow, loot-grinding games. It feels like a huge waste of beautiful technical design.

Yes. My reply, which took 10 seconds to type out and publish, clearly indicates that I’m deeply invested in what you’ve said. You got me.

Some people want to play on their TV in the living room, where the awesome surround sound setup is, and don’t want to have to tether a PC to it.

I don’t really care.

That one dude is voiced by the guy who did Michael in GTAV, right? Am I the only one hearing a resemblance?

I’m not disagreeing with any of that, and if you consider discussion about the meaning of words pedantic, I don’t object to the characterization.

She’s not putting herself at risk, so let her do her, mom.

I think you’re being pedantic.

If it’s not a moral or ethical appeal, it’s still equally useless, because it’s appealing to the individual consumer’s will, when the ball (as we all know well by this point) has always been in the various media industries’ courts. It was something they had to do, not something individual consumers had to do. So yes,…

Yeah, it seems like Denuvo is sort of pivoting here, from an all-encompassing protection system, to insurance against piracy in the initial release window. The value proposition would appear to be diminishing.

At the end of the day it has the main feature of moral and ethical arguments, though, in the sense that it’s about appealing to the individual will. He’s telling people that they should make the conscious choice not to engage in piracy. And what I’m saying is that this has almost certainly been the least effective…
