It’s amazing how giving every family some no strings attached cash and making every school give out free food effected the child poverty rate, almost like we could lower it and keep it low but our leadership chooses not to.

It also had the “other OS” feature! It’s strange that the PS3 remains the only big console to have that feature, given how difficult its architecture is to work with. The modern consoles are all much closer to just being prebuilt PCs and none of them have it.

You’re correct. I think the real obstacle PC gaming has to overcome for the average consumer is the basic knowledge requirement - I built the PC I currently use and game on and yet I find the numbering schemes for processors and graphics cards insanely confusing, have no idea what goes together and what doesn’t, what’s a good deal and what’s overpriced, etc. But while I was willing to put in the research when I built my current computer, I can totally understand someone else who wants something that they can just turn on and it works.

Prebuilts don’t really solve this problem either. The average consumer will see something like the “MSI Glaive-Guisarm 2077 Fortnite Edition” and I have no idea if that’s better than or worse than or about the same as a PS5.

I think I wrapped my books exactly one year, and after that never bothered. Never did it in duraseal though, I used brown paper bags and scotch tape.

Saw similarly strange pizzas when I lived in Japan. I think in Asia generally they just have a different idea of what to do with pizza.

The hat looks like it’s resting on top of his head, not actually pulled down around his head.

Damn I never realized Al Qaeda fumbled the ball that badly.

If I ever get back into 40K I am 100% buying a 3D printer and making my own minis / sprues.

My dog wants to know your location.

There’s some real doublethink going on in the heads of some American libs where they can recognize that the post-9/11 jingoism was really bad but also they are capable to going straight back to that emotional place at the drop of a hat.

I’ve heard of it. IIRC it didn’t matter what a person’s beliefs about racism were, they had the reaction anyway, it was just that deeply ingrained by society’s latent white supremacy.

I think the instant downvotes specifically are a result of botting. Power accounts pump their own posts in part by depressing everyone else’s.

There are concerns over what would happen should these weapons fall into the hands of white-wing Christianist groups.

heh

Yeah but there’s a whole slew of special moves, and the shinobi tools are easier to experiment with (and more fun to use) than spells are.

It’s a failure of our schools IMO. They make it into this dire thing that sucks when it should be more natural, like “you’re an adult now it’s time to eat salad and write in cursive”.

trying to justify it with writing speed or whatever is just some bazinga brained bullshit

I specifically switched to writing in cursive because I had a job where I had to take a lot of notes and using a keyboard wasn’t an option. It let me write faster and it stopped me from getting hand cramps.

I do too it’s great

This is a big reason why many US city budgets are fucked. So much prime taxable real estate given over to parking lots that don’t generate anywhere nearly as much money for the public, but the market doesn’t care about that particular externality.

Venezuela but it’s every country in South America united against American economic imperialism.
