One of them is statistically less likely to hijack a plane.
Ok since some think I’m defending one over the other;
One of them is statistically less likely to hijack a plane, while the other is more likely to firebomb a woman’s health clinic.
Both are as likely to drive a vehicle through a pride parade.
Exactly! No venture capitalist has ever taken something that could be monetized but wasn’t, bought it out, and then proceeded to monetize it into irrelevancy before…
Translation: “Once all the hub-bub dies down we intend to as slowly as you’ll allow, slip in monetization.”
I haven’t looked into it but if it’s anything like the Rumble “controversy” it’s that streamers/personalities they don’t like/disagree with/despise aren’t immediately banned/blocked/cancelled.
Sorry I know that in text it can seem like I’m responding directly to you but I was more meaning in the broad sense. That I understand that there are situations where you do need a pickup truck or a heavy duty truck, things of that nature.
And I’m not trying to imply that there is no reason to need a truck or no reason to need an SUV. There are jobs that require it, there are things that you can do or be employed by that would require needing extra towing capacity, that would require needing extra abilities to hold heavier weights. Those things do exist. But again I can count on one hand the amount of people I know or have met or am related to now who NEED those things. I’ve actually had to watch as several of my in-laws who worked for companies that they claimed they couldn’t do their job unless they had a lifted jacked up truck which had an extreme extended cab and bed be transferred to electric vans and it did not impact their job. They were still able to get everywhere they needed to go with all of the things that they had in tow and the mover vans worked just fine. And I’ve actually known several people who got fired from those jobs because the electric vans had tattler programs and it told them that they were driving in dangerous manners putting both the company’s assets at risk and risking liability.
I’m an American in the rural South East. I can count on one hand the amount of people I’ve seen, met, or are my in laws who NEED a truck. I do not have enough body parts to count the amount of trucks that are used by compensating good ol’ boys and girls. The amount of shitty drivers in SUVs who have the mindset of “if I’m in an accident I’ll be ok, so I don’t have to worry about driving like there are other people on the road” is down right astounding.
Breaking Benjamin, twice.
Honestly all this reads to me is “The people who made the BioWare games you liked left long ago, and the new people can’t hack it.”
I was on board right up until “You’re acting like Mom!” and all I could hear was some 30-something year old child still trying to tell about how it’s not a phase.
Absolutely. Sure Publishers want their cut, but it’s an agreement between Dev and pub. This just feels like Bungie blaming Acti-Blizz for all the things people didn’t like about Destiny.
I’m interested. I don’t preorder so kick-starting is also out.
Not great. Sixth graders would be the 11-12 year old kids. It’s been a while since I was in school(I’m 38) and when I was in sixth grade I was considered “advanced” in reading level due to reading Tolkien.
I hope the demo comes to consoles as well I really want to try it out.
I’d say December is gluttony and February is greed.
December has more holidays in it that have a feast component as part of the celebration. Now I do agree with you that November having Thanksgiving makes it pretty you know neck and neck for Americans but the rest of the world celebrates all of those other holidays that happen during the month of December while exclusively Americans celebrate Thanksgiving.
And while February yes used to be the month about showing your loved one that you loved them and fostering affection it is not very well known for actually being that where people will compare the expense or extravagance of their gifts or their outing or their date against other people’s gifts, outings, and dates. “So-and-So spent $XXX on their partner, but you only spent $XXx on me!”, you heard that sort of statement a lot on February 15th. Or as I like to call it, First discount chocolate day of the year.
Most excellent indeed.
I’m almost positive the chitin is filtered out somehow. Or hell, maybe it’s left in there for some reason by design.
Non-alarmist answer: tastes can change over time for no real reason. Some mild reasons it could change is pallet fatigue, prep and cook time seeming not worth it and so you crave it less, and changes in overall perception. A person who is slowly becoming vegan for moral or health reasons will naturally stop wanting certain meat products.
Alarmist answer: I don’t know man. You’ve probably got some weird cancer or something.
I was leaning more towards the other bombing a women’s health clinic.
