They also do it when they play with each other, so they probably were just being cute.

That’s a solid point. Assuming their bespoke Unreal Engine/Gamebryo hybrid engine can run the scripts, there’s no reason it couldn’t be “remastered” in the same way.

They can’t really remaster without the source code, especially if they wanted to go the route of Oblivion and tack a new rendering engine onto the old game logic. They’d have to remake the game from scratch, which would definitely make a better product, but is wayyyyy more work.

It can be, it can also be ‘purposefully’. All three have slightly distinct but overlapping uses. ‘Purposely’ means on purpose, ‘purposefully’ means with purpose, and ‘purposively’ means with a purpose.

No. Combining pseudo-socialist economic policies with conservative social policies is literally national-socialism which you might know by some other names

Without getting into the rest of it, that is not the case whatsoever. The Nazis weren’t even pseudo-socialist, they were definitely capitalist. There was still a capitalist class profiting off of the slavery and war, but only so long as they remained loyal to the party.

Should probably edit the correction into your main post.

They’re probably only meant for rapid response situations, but Patel is using them as personal jets. He didn’t even fly back until a whole day after the shooting.

The way he really sold the emotional scenes in that show convinced me he’s got some serious acting skills.

Metroid Prime my beloved…

I’m assuming they mean it isn’t a two way block. Blocked users can still interact with your posts/comments, you just can’t see them. I personally think that should be how it works, but I’ve seen a lot of arguments for the Reddit-style blocking where they can’t interact with you anymore.

Maybe capitalism enables patriarchy through entrenched power structures propping up men, but it generally enables all kinds of cultural hierarchies as tools to keep the masses divided. Singling out any division as something that enables capitalism doesn’t make much sense.

I can’t imagine Valve making that kind of heel turn on their (mostly) open-source philosophy. They’re marketing their whole hardware line as your hardware to do whatever you want with, going closed garden after the fact would throw away a lot of good will.

I vibe with a lot of anarchism, but I agree that having no system is probably worse than a flawed system. And I’m a strong proponent of abolishing our current system of punishment, there just needs to be a rehabilitation system in its place.

Less movement in the main plot, but more unnecessary side plot shit that is often unresolved by the end.

Also the more repetition the more room on the page for ad spots. Same reason so many Youtubers restate the same shit almost verbatim over and over and over; it pads the video so Youtube can cram in more ad spots.

Often it’s a localization issue too. Japanese dialogue doesn’t translate easily to English, it’s usually longer and has more layers of formality that English can’t express. And they often aren’t allowed to cut the content, so they have to make the English super wordy and explainy to match the long winded mouth flaps.

The constant restating on Youtube is to pad out their video and get more ad spots. I also immediately dislike and hide them because of that.

At the very least I don’t understand why he even has the option if the bill passed the threshold already. I can understand the concept of the veto, but isn’t it a waste of time if the vote was already veto-proof.

He was asked why that airline and he specifically said it wasn’t to do with the airline, just that that particular flight suited his needs. He did say “it’s just because I have a grudge”, but he didn’t say what it was.

I also agree he died, mostly because they never found the money in circulation. None of the serial numbers they gave him were ever identified. So it seems he either never spent a cent of it, or he didn’t survive the jump.

It’s interesting to hear about someone having a similar experience due to a brain injury. I have always wondered if my inability to internalize thoughts was some kind of developmental thing; if I don’t speak them or write them down then they’re really scattered and sorta incoherent.
