Why not both?

Nothing a VPN can’t solve

If we’re lucky he’ll piss off his Russian contacts and end up falling out a window by accident.

More likely is that this puppet will be used by bad actors to advance their agendas and as usual he’ll distract everybody from the actual bad shit happening.

So what I read is that TPUSA enables useful idiots.

Stop giving attention whores what they want, for fuck’s sake. It’s like getting mad at Facebook comments which I thought we’d all learned was useless a decade ago.

I like to use the Wirecutter from the New York Times as a starting point, though I often ignore the products recommended because the links are typically to American online retailers that I’m unlikely to use. I pay more attention to the various aspects used to recommend their choices, then check other reviews from specialized hobbyist forums when available. Finally, if I find the product in a store I will ask to demo it before buying.

YouTube can be helpful if you can cut through the clutter or need to see head to head testing between your short list items. Don’t blindly search there though because the algorithm is shit.

It’s simply part of an effort to impose moral beliefs on a world that to them, appears to work without them. Bringing order to chaos. Kind of like the Christian beliefs underpinning such cruelty.

This issue has been explored previously, and with a better example of the trolley problem that centers the ethical dilemma entirely on the autopilot.

I do agree that in most situations, the driver retains full control over the vehicle, and therefore remains fully responsible, even if there’s a case to be made that the autopilot neglected the safety of others outside the car.

However, I’d also argue that this example leaves a possibility where fault cannot be assigned to them: If the driver became aware of the hazards at a reasonable time (i.e. spotting the pedestrians just around a sharp bend, rather than 200m down a straightaway), and made every reasonable effort to stop within that time but could not. There are limits to the driver’s responsibility, but the most interesting cases are crashes that the autopilot is capable of preventing (even if the driver reasonably cannot), but fails to do so.

Bro, is this really the time for that 💀

You could always don a stage persona like Marshmello or Daft Punk. Then nobody cares what you look like under the mask.

I’ve only bought two Nintendo games twice.

First was Super Smash Bros. Brawl because my first game disc got scratched by accident and became unreadable by the Wii console.

The second was Mario Kart 8 because of the Booster Course Pass even though I bought this game a decade ago on the Wii U with its DLC.

The BCP makes this game feel new again, like a Mario Kart 8.5.

Consider a sleep study. I found out I have sleep apnea this way, and did a follow up study with a CPAP machine where I just felt 100x better rested than usual. Ask your doctor for a referral.

This is disingenuous. Scammers have gotten smarter over the years and not everybody is technologically savvy. All it takes is a perfect storm of factors for even the most experienced people to fall prey to scams.

Stop victim blaming and focus on education. It’s the only way this gets better.

You can minimize this by having a higher invincibility stat (another hidden stat that influences how many I-frames you get after spinning out).

Obligatory fuck /u/Spez.

This type of behavior needs to be regulated. Foreign interference isn’t acceptable, and if Canada passes the online harms act then the ensuing regulator needs to handle situations like this or at least hand out massive fines for greed and indifference.

Your situation is not applicable to why the lawsuit exists.

It’s the idiots that pirated and leaked TOTK a week before the release date that gave Nintendo ammunition for this case. As a result, everybody who is using Yuzu legitimately will suffer for it.

It does exist: that’s what Late Stage Capitalism was all about.

If there’s anything Activision knows how to do, it’s follow the money.

And what better source of money than young adults spending their first paychecks or teenagers begging their parents to buy them the hottest and newest game that all their friends are playing?

Honest fact based journalism is an essential pillar of a functional democracy. Being informed is absolutely in the public interest, and government funding should support it, precisely because it often isn’t profitable or sustainable for private companies (as we keep seeing over the years).

I don’t understand why this is so hard to grasp. And the people whining about liberal bias and calling for defunding of public media are missing the forest for the trees (even if some of the journalism is questionable in quality).

Even a scooter or motorcycle is better than a car (though not necessarily safer).

I will make it legal.
