I would highly recommend Payday 2, forget the DLC unless you really like it, but the game is amazing, one of the best horde shooters around imho. Payday 3 is a really pale comparison because it came out and pretty much the entire audience went to it and went “this sucks” then went right back to payday 2 because it’s just that much better.

But…iron is heavier than feathers…

I’ve always said I’ll play eve if there’s an afterlife. The idea is fascinating to me but I ain’t got that kind of time

Every in game auction house lol pretty much any item that hasn’t just been bought out and manipulated has the same entries.

2000 1999 1980 1950 1900 1899 1880 1500

Can you actually give evidence? Or even a semi-convincing argument to back that up? Because from everything I’ve seen it’s a whale fishing company with bros playing around with random disjointed tech demos. The closest I’ve seen them do to interesting is their distributed server model for cells in a single environment, but even that isn’t worth a billion dollars in funding.

Otherwise I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

I think this is mutual in that I prefer women just have a hobby more than anything. It’s a weird feeling when someone genuinely tells you they do “Nothing really” and you find out they’re genuinely serious.

Obviously you just mandate your game and console be always online and at that point you may as well just live stream the game to their house, don’t need to download if you never actually own it right?? Make them pay per the minute of game time and only unlock the next level after they’ve played long enough! Hell! Why even sell a game?? Just have people pay you for the right to advertise that they paid for it and charge them a daily subscription to keep the rights! Nobody owns anything but you! Art and entertainment is merely a vessel to siphon money from the masses! Purchase their souls for a hit of dopamine! Rent them their own eyes!

Eh, it’s also a bit of a teaching opportunity with kids. A decent parent will teach kids which things are okay to hit and which ones aren’t, and this is something that can help with that. Someone’s probably going to get hit once or twice yeah. But kids also get mad when they can’t stick forks in outlets. I don’t see this toy being any worse than a sword or gun toy.

Captain: “What happened? How did you die?”

Wan: shrugs

They don’t care to do anything about those

Ah that explains it

Isn’t there a whole big deal about Fred Meyer merging with them and some anti monopoly bs going on?

Yeah see it’s not surge pricing! We actually lower prices whentheresnobodyintheaisle so that the discounts are passed on to you! Also we list the lowered price in the ads and apps so when you come in you can be surprised by power of our tech! and the updated price

Yeah but physical activity will make you feel better. That’s not why we’re here man get with it.

Just want to add, in the US you’d don’t have to register to vote each election/vote, just when you change address.

I think I can speak for most Americans (and as someone who owns stocks) fuck the shareholders.

Technically they don’t gain money no, but they get:

1. To move or dispose of product, making sales look better
2. Free marketing, both in people having the drinks and to say “look we did a charity”
3. To pay their taxes with effectively free money, because they take the product that they made for pennies, and count it as a “donation” at full price. Meaning that all the “profit” they would have made on markup goes straight to paying the taxes instead of making the money and paying taxes on the money they already made.

It’s why a company donating their product is always better for them than a regular person donating cash. They are effectively still making money it’s just this time they are making money specifically to pay off their taxes.

That’s weird

Not to mention a lot of eggs in one basket. They’ve built in a lot more redundancies now yeah, but all it takes is a hit to AWS and a shitload of the internet is just DOA. Yeah you can argue about protections and data centers or whatever, but still. It’s one big nest in control of one company, no matter how well they guard it, it’s still a risk, technical, ethical, or whatever.

The old in Japan have that problem. There have been other studies that have shown that you get people have significantly less problems with it. Japan has always been insular, but their politics and older age groups have always been more stagnant and less accepting.

Basically, don’t throw the whole country under the bus when it’s just the old farts that don’t want things to change.
