My guy is talking about a controlled environment with scientific processes and y’all here talkin’ like he wants to chuck it on a few logs.

You can’t create what isn’t there. There’s a whole history of political abuse that festered. The CIA capitalized on that, they didn’t just waltz in February 2014 and say: “How about let’s have a revolution, eh guys?”

Can I ask why you immediately consider moving a solution when the majority of Americans are too poor for it and Mississippians doubly so?

You’re also not taking into account subscription price hikes, policies dictating what you can and can’t do with the software, media availability without internet, surveillance and data selling.

Netflix has doubled their fees in the last ten years while hemorrhaging beloved content to other streaming services.

Netflix and others dictate that you’re not allowed to siphon the shows and movies to watch later, at a time and place that may be inconvenient for the service (such as removing it).

Go anywhere without internet and suddenly all of your paid options don’t exist. That may be resolved one day by unlimited internet everywhere, but that leads into…

These streaming services will know where you are and what you’re doing all the time. Surveillance in general has only gotten worse, and watchdogs may be vigilant but it’s not blunting how much privacy is being stripped away from you on a regular basis.

The price you’re paying isn’t just dollars and it’s not locked in forever.

I never mentioned age. I mentioned games that are played for thousands of hours. Meaning that the value of those games far exceeds the value of the subscription. Furthermore, then the subscription ends (including when pulling games that are too old) and you are left without the game you have been sinking an incredible amount of time into just because some suits determined that not enough people play X game to warrant providing server space.

Yes. I am explaining that the opposite value of that statement doesn’t go far enough.

To be fair nobody plays just one single game for 3 years.

Where’s the confusion?

Skyrim, Fallout 4, RDR2, Witcher 3, The Sims, Dark Souls, Civilization, Borderlands 1/2, Stardew Valley, Persona…

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean there aren’t people that come back again and again between games to dust off an old favorite. While I personally never touched Fallout 4 again after beating it, I’ll break out my XBox 360 and give New Vegas a whirl to see what character concept I’ll try this time.

Huh. Don’t know how I missed that. Thanks.

More like MediaLite. What were the books? What official pulled them and on what grounds/passages? Who filed the initial motion/complaint and why? Does Bill plan to do anything more than whine?

The Economist is inherently fascist because it exists both as a product of and to foment capitalism.

“For social order we need tighter reigns! Incarceration hasn’t worked as a deterrent, I say we expand execution to include lesser crimes!” - Chief Judge Griffin, Judge Dredd (1995)

Do you have to take care of a family? One where your domestic partner can’t work because they have to look after the kid(s)?

I decided to give it a shot. Maybe it’s different now, but I do taste the anise flavor. The problem is that while I thought I would like it, it distracted from the flavor. I continued on, thinking I’d adjust but it just kept growing more noticeable until I finally decided it wasn’t for me. Thanks!

Prions are not a disease like bacteria or viruses. They’re abnormal protein chains that slowly cause a cascade of breakdowns in your brain. This had happened before. It’s not really something you have a defense against, but it easily jumps the typical species barrier. Our best defense is containment.

Prions are not a disease like COVID or Staph. You don’t fight Prions. You contract prions and then you slowly and inevitably die from your brain being swiss cheesed because they’re abnormal protein chains that trigger breakdowns of other proteins. We dealt with this being directly in the food chain from the Mad Cow issue of the 90’s and as a species we made it through so readily that people are talking about this like it’s never happened before. We’re going to be okay.

For a non-tick response- Prion contamination resulting in Mad Cow Disease. One meal and your brain eventually rots in moldy cheese.

The Left is smarter. Interpret that however you like.

Um. You proved me right and have therefore suggested for me that this was staged. Congratulations?

The MRI magnet is ALWAYS on. This means no person is allowed to enter the MRI scan room without clearance and permission from a certified technologist. Metallic objects (such as fingernail clippers, pocket knives and even pens) can lead to serious bodily injury if brought within the magnetic field.
