Not to mention no silly things like books, tv or the internet.

2018-03-09 04:29:15 UTC  

I can imagine what the dislike ratio must be like.

2018-03-09 04:41:22 UTC  

It starts with war-themed games and a horror film based game.

2018-03-09 04:42:13 UTC  

Yeah, dude, it's the theme for these games. Let's also make a cut of the most violent films and demand Hollywood to be banned. Let's get an edit of the most gruesome TV shows and get TV banned.

That's what got me off the Trump train for rn. Plus what he said about taking guns away from people without due process really angered me.

2018-03-09 05:52:33 UTC  

Yeah, he's fucking up hard now.

2018-03-09 05:52:58 UTC  

"Taking guns away first, due process later", that's not what "due process" means.

2018-03-09 05:54:13 UTC  

Then the backpedal from "the FBI/law enforcement/leftist policies screwed up" to "video games are to blame", Jesus...

2018-03-09 05:54:42 UTC  

Even Milo, which went full Trump Fanatic, stepped back.

I mean agree with his policies on immigration, national security, putting nationalism over globalism, enforcing the law indiscriminately at all times, along with a couple of his campaign promises. Now I’m not sure if he will act on those promises. I jumped on the Trump train after a year of seeing his success in 2017, I just got off a few weeks ago.

2018-03-09 05:58:57 UTC  

At the end of the day, what he says doesn't matter, what matters is what he does.

2018-03-09 06:00:28 UTC  

It'll be weird if he turns out like Theresa May, which suddenly goes into a confidence crisis and starts trying to appeal to the opposition, only to end up with support from neither side.

MotherBoard was a joke anyway.

Just love it when she rips on western outlets for ignorantly criticizing Japanese developers.

ivy needs tighter bikini

2018-03-09 07:21:40 UTC  

maybe that's his criticism

2018-03-09 07:22:47 UTC  

in other news, academic agent thinks monopolies are fine, because anti-trust might not work

2018-03-09 07:22:58 UTC  

yeah, AA is a bit... stupid at times

2018-03-09 07:23:19 UTC  

monopolies have great customer service btw

2018-03-09 07:23:25 UTC  

and excellent warranties

2018-03-09 07:29:51 UTC  

being unaccountable means they care extra about customers, it's not like the govt is inefficient because its a monopoly of sorts

2018-03-09 08:49:59 UTC  

Shaky monopolies might actually be a good thing. When someone is holding a monopoly and could lose it in a snap if people would grow too dissatisfied.

2018-03-09 10:02:41 UTC  

That's not really how monopolies work you two. Greed is too strong and the brand name is too strong. Just look at apple, it's not like they keep themselves afloat with good customer service or quality of production, and they're not even a monopoly just the market leader.

2018-03-09 10:28:16 UTC  

Well, it is somewhat how it works where i live in for few companies. ALKO is a state owned alcohol monopoly which was set up after the Prohibition here. It is only entity which is allowed to sell hard booze here. If it cocks things up badly the politics WILL tear it down.

This means that the service quality is quite high indeed.
