  • When it comes to a partner I want love, loyalty, respect, attention and affection. As long as those needs are met, and they're good looking enough to keep my eyes on them, everything else is inconsequential.

  • I don't. Believe whatever you want to believe. My wife thinks bigfoot, ancient aliens, ghosts, werewolves, vampires, demons, angels, etc exist. I think that statically aliens have to exist but the rest are bunk. It doesn't affect me if she believes those things.

  • Depends. Do they love and respect me? Are they trying to convert me every chance they get?

  • I loled

  • Buddy, this isn't the navy. The captain isn't going down with the ship. As much as we would all want or hope for them to. If anything, them chopping their workforce down will be seen as them improving the value of the company. The investors are who they actually answer to. And they are going to want them to make them money before they pull out all their investments and crater all those studios.

  • It's a niche game in an already niche genre. Sure, Elden Ring was the first one to crack into the mainstream. But seen as FromSoft somehow managed to sell Souls fans a network test disguised as a game I'd say even if it flipped it'd be a financial success for them.

  • As much as that blows, it does make sense. They bet everything on being bought out and when that fell through they were massively overextended.

  • Isn't this racism?

  • I feel like it could be. It could also just be a remark that the people who live their preferred religious rule. Without more context it just seems like poorly worded critique.

  • Hmmmm...

  • I was leaning more towards the other bombing a women's health clinic.

  • One of them is statistically less likely to hijack a plane.

    Ok since some think I'm defending one over the other;

    One of them is statistically less likely to hijack a plane, while the other is more likely to firebomb a woman's health clinic.

    Both are as likely to drive a vehicle through a pride parade.

  • Exactly! No venture capitalist has ever taken something that could be monetized but wasn't, bought it out, and then proceeded to monetize it into irrelevancy before........

  • Translation: "Once all the hub-bub dies down we intend to as slowly as you'll allow, slip in monetization."

  • I haven't looked into it but if it's anything like the Rumble "controversy" it's that streamers/personalities they don't like/disagree with/despise aren't immediately banned/blocked/cancelled.

  • Sorry I know that in text it can seem like I'm responding directly to you but I was more meaning in the broad sense. That I understand that there are situations where you do need a pickup truck or a heavy duty truck, things of that nature.

  • And I'm not trying to imply that there is no reason to need a truck or no reason to need an SUV. There are jobs that require it, there are things that you can do or be employed by that would require needing extra towing capacity, that would require needing extra abilities to hold heavier weights. Those things do exist. But again I can count on one hand the amount of people I know or have met or am related to now who NEED those things. I've actually had to watch as several of my in-laws who worked for companies that they claimed they couldn't do their job unless they had a lifted jacked up truck which had an extreme extended cab and bed be transferred to electric vans and it did not impact their job. They were still able to get everywhere they needed to go with all of the things that they had in tow and the mover vans worked just fine. And I've actually known several people who got fired from those jobs because the electric vans had tattler programs and it told them that they were driving in dangerous manners putting both the company's assets at risk and risking liability.

  • I'm an American in the rural South East. I can count on one hand the amount of people I've seen, met, or are my in laws who NEED a truck. I do not have enough body parts to count the amount of trucks that are used by compensating good ol' boys and girls. The amount of shitty drivers in SUVs who have the mindset of "if I'm in an accident I'll be ok, so I don't have to worry about driving like there are other people on the road" is down right astounding.

  • Honestly all this reads to me is "The people who made the BioWare games you liked left long ago, and the new people can't hack it."

  • I was on board right up until "You're acting like Mom!" and all I could hear was some 30-something year old child still trying to tell about how it's not a phase.
