Moving the goal post which is the most popular sport here apparently. The guy I am replying to is outright wrong. Removing the electoral college wouldn't fuck over farmers because the electoral college currently fucks over farmers. Unless you agree with that dimwit and believe that all farmers live in Wyoming and Hawaii?
Unless they push the air spawns back I don't see this being beneficial at all. Right now if you are playing air superiority in GRB you have a very limited amount of time to intercept before they can bomb friendlies and often no time at all to make the attack in a way that isn't just a head on pass. So without a change to where aircraft spawn whats going to happen here is that air superiority aircraft are going to be in a place where they not only have seconds to intercept but will be actively findable by the enemy.
You can call me a dumbass for remembering how common it was to believe that Romney was going to opress black people, but if you speak to me like that again, I'm going to block you as that seems like a dumb conversation to have and I will not spend more time on that.
Yeah, everyone except the border states. Abbot's bus policy is actually good. No one group of states should be forced to deal with the economic burden of dealing with all these people.
I don't see the bus policy being good. Just more political grandstanding. From 1990 to today Republicans have held Government for 15 years while Democrats have held Government for 19 years.
And I think Trump would've had the votes for a bit but he also couldn't get Congressional Republicans onboard. Well I don't know if Trump ever wanted a bill, he seemed fine using EO, but they had the votes for a minute.
Do you have any examples of what those messages might be? Because the conservative / toxic masculinity ones are absolutely “you are better than everyone else due to the circumstances of your birth, and you must not let those trying to make society more equitable take that away.”
I think what is being overlooked is not "the message" but the message within economic context. Men 25-34 have a 10 point gap in Bachelor Degree attainment compared to women.1 We know that higher levels of education is linked to better outcomes in life (economic, health, etc..). This is combined with the generally gutting of traditional well paying non-college jobs men would have.
I get the feeling the only reason there's a statement at all is that people wouldn't stop blowing up their contact methods about it, basically a "we know about it, if there's something shady we'll deal with it, please stop asking us"
Yea, there are an absolute bizarre number of people RP'ing Nintendo lawyers and I'm sure they are getting inundated with messages about what has been "found".
Wasn’t it only recommended to ban them in apartments that didn’t have fans that take the air outside? I think the issue stemmed from places that had fans that just pushed the air to the ceiling not actually taking it out of the living space.
The study didn't make a recommendation to ban them it just reported that there was an increase in pollutants. Apartments are the type of building with the highest risk because how close your kitchen is to your bedroom is going to determine the amount of pollutants spreading to the bedroom. But any house layout could have this issue.
You don't. Money laundering is cleaning dirty money so that banks and the government believe the money is clean. As a rule this means that you are laundering large sums of money. If you go to the bank with $500,000 they will ask where it came from and saying "I sold CS skins" is going to generate suspicion.
Buy stolen credit cards for cash, use them to buy steam cards, use the steam credit to buy cases / cosmetics from yourself, optionally sell the final steam credit for cashapp etc
That has very little to do with that. In Shogun2 a "balanced army" was 3 Bow ashigaru and 4 Yari Ashigaru. I CAN make a warhammer army that is similar. But it lacks: Artillery, anti-large, flanking units, casters, anti-hero, dedicated armor pen, flyers and cool support units like engineers. All of these rolls didn't really exist in shogun (or medieval) or were not important (<= Cav, AP). So you need more slots to get all the cool stuff into an army.
By creating an army cap players are naturally going to always use 20 stack armies and avoid smaller ones unless they have literally no choice. In older games not having an army cap and the reinforcement system made smaller battles a more regular feature.
Smaller, but meaningless battles. I do not have fond memories or killing a 3-unit stacks of poles every turn in medieval 2. Manually moving reinforcement towards your main army also sucked. Shogun2 was a bit less bad as the map was very linear, but its not like the system was any good.
Somehow the big "PC Gaming" subreddit feels like the frontline of the console wars for some reason. Like Avowed should really be a reason for optimism or even excitement. Obsidian is getting a big release of an RPG in their own world.
I mean, I love Obsidian. I have thousands of hours between both PoE games, Tyranny is one of my favorite small cult classic games, and it goes without saying that New Vegas is still competitive with the likes of BG3 and other major RPG heavy hitters. Many of the devs there have incredible pedigree.
So.... like I get not being hyped but this thread and this subreddit in general leans negative and its really only been getting worse. Like lets look at Obsidian for a second and check out their development history since New Vegas.
I can only tell you why I stopped playing. It was around the time when community servers got discussed with the players and while I think community servers with custom rules are fun, it was kinda too early to draw players away from the "main game". They also introduced many more other modes and at that point I was just kinda done. To me it felt like the game was splitting too much apart too fast. So instead of focusing on the good stuff, they focused on new, exciting stuff and it just didn't work in my case because the new stuff didn't excite me at all.
I don't see why that would be. If you are able to get subscriptions + people making purchases at $70 or $60 they are beneficial to each other. And its clear, so far, that people are willing to make purchases at that level even with the sub being available.
How is it risking a wider war? Currently Israel knows that its backed by the U.S. and therefore doesn't need to take unilateral action against Iran. Iran knows that the U.S. is backing Israel so knows that any overt actions against Israel will necessarily include a U.S. response.
Almost all the complex under the hood stuff exists to service a super high fidelity game of Freelancer. Which... like if you wanted a super high fidelity version of Freelancer its great, and that is definitely what Chris Roberts wants. However, similar to Freelancer it uses space as set dressing and not really a setting. Look no farther than combat which is still that old War in the Pacific but in the "darkness of space" that we had in 1999.
I believe what we are also seeing in AAA development is a game of catch up to what is popular now, with the thought that this same thing will be popular in a few years' time when game releases. They then found out what they crafted the game with is out of style, this in turn causes a step back in production of the game, a delay of the game, then when it does release the game is a jumbling mess that doesn't know what it is and where to go.
I just don't see how they could, what with the numerous loading screens traveling from planet to planet and every planet having the same PoIs. I don't see them reworking their whole system.
The core of that games problems are essentially all related to the setting. Like people are harping on the writing or whatnot but honest to god the writing in Skyrim wasn't good it wasn't good in Fallout 4 either and Oblivion is more interesting but still rough.
Nope the global economy collapsed. Not just the US. And rallies don’t last nine months. Look at the research.
Poor economy is a weight its not fate. Handling a crisis well can make the man and Covid was a crisis.
Not really. The economy predicts just about everything. People generally don’t care about circumstances or other performance. Again, look at GHWB.
yes really. Come back with some facts or don't come back at all.
i remember one time I tried to argue about the electoral college and how I felt like removing it just fucks over the rural class more than it should.
The issue is that the same argument applies to the Senate, because the three votes for the executive come from the three votes in congress.

any sin tax – whether a direct binary tax or a triangular tax that hits buyer and seller – is harmful in a number of ways.
Stop moving the goalpost like a dork and eat your loss. Proven wrong so you go whine about something else because you can't admit it. Pathetic.
Change your flair or read Mises, comrade
I don't need to change my flair. I am not posting a political opinion you Neanderthal.
You can call me a dumbass for remembering how common it was to believe that Romney was going to opress black people, but if you speak to me like that again, I'm going to block you as that seems like a dumb conversation to have and I will not spend more time on that.
Okay so let me get this straight.
Yeah, everyone except the border states. Abbot's bus policy is actually good. No one group of states should be forced to deal with the economic burden of dealing with all these people.
I don't see the bus policy being good. Just more political grandstanding. From 1990 to today Republicans have held Government for 15 years while Democrats have held Government for 19 years.
Bush rallied for immigration reform but was unable to get support in Congress from his own party
And I think Trump would've had the votes for a bit but he also couldn't get Congressional Republicans onboard. Well I don't know if Trump ever wanted a bill, he seemed fine using EO, but they had the votes for a minute.
i appreciate that this is way off topic but can you recommend one?
Luxe Bidet is a good entry point.

Those don't really disprove my point and the first two are direct results of the toxic masculinity that the left is trying to address.
lol

Yeah but is this such an important thing? We have far more important issues to deal with in Chicago and he goes after this?
Believe it or not its possible for someone to do more than one thing.

How do you launder money buying digital skins in a videogame?
You don't. Money laundering is cleaning dirty money so that banks and the government believe the money is clean. As a rule this means that you are laundering large sums of money. If you go to the bank with $500,000 they will ask where it came from and saying "I sold CS skins" is going to generate suspicion.
Buy stolen credit cards for cash, use them to buy steam cards, use the steam credit to buy cases / cosmetics from yourself, optionally sell the final steam credit for cashapp etc
How is the money laundered though? Like this all sounds like a way of generating dirty cash. At no point has it been cleaned.

Its not, seriously. Fewer players require more skill. But whatever, live in your fantasy if you want

Already did that
Yes, but
Feel is sort of the key here. Everyone is talking about how it looks not how it feels.
Animations take a ton of work.
They take a lot of man hours but they aren't interdependent on other systems so relatively speaking its quick.

Sorta, it does have a large number of PC gamers on it but the threads are relatively sane when compared to other "gamer discussions". Like

The unfortunate thing is there aren't really any other gaming subreddits where you can have sane and rational discussion. Not that

At least Oblivion actually won awards. It was good for its time. Starfield is trying to get away with a late 2000’s game in 2023.
Keep moving that goalpost
I don't think that's true: there's a lot under the hood that no other games have even attempted before.

This sounds like Duke Nukem Forever
I'll give it to them, they've spent far more time supporting this than I thought they would after that disastrous launch.
Imagine the alternate universe where they didn't release 2042 and instead kept supporting BFV. :(
I just don't see how they could, what with the numerous loading screens traveling from planet to planet and every planet having the same PoIs. I don't see them reworking their whole system.
Does nothing to the loading screens and the whole game being disjointed af lmfao. Don't quit your day job for game designing...
How so?
The really worrying thing about Starfield isn't just that it's kinda mediocre, but that Bethesda seems completely clueless about said mediocrity.
The core of that games problems are essentially all related to the setting. Like people are harping on the writing or whatnot but honest to god the writing in Skyrim wasn't good it wasn't good in Fallout 4 either and Oblivion is more interesting but still rough.

Its not massively by any means. Folks I game with are 100% PC and over the last couple of years more and more of them have gotten a Deck.
