That's interesting, I really like the fishy taste. If it's overpowering it can be unpleasant, but in reasonably amounts it's tasty.

That's irrelevant. You can't patent fantasy creatures. That's a copyright issue. If they were suing for copyright infringement I might think they had a point, but they're not.

(this is an expensive hobby just FYI)

Yeah custom keyboards get absurdly expensive very quickly.

then they made it free and introduced DLCs. Such a slap in the face.

The part that got me is that they made it free and reset my light level.

Suddenly I was on the same light level as people that had just started playing. The only difference between us being that I had some exotics.

Going F2P was shitty from my perspective, but going F2P and removing all the content I'd paid for already.. yikes.

What absolutely killed it for me is when they started including important story information in battlepasses. I stopped playing for awhile, and then started doing a new expansion only to find out that my light had been reset, half my favorite guns were literally useless, and on top of all of that I couldn't really follow the plot anymore because they had introduced an entirely new hub area I'd never seen, and several new characters that they just expected me to know.

What 'whirlwind of changes' has happened to Destiny 2?

Maybe I'll actually consider playing it again if it's major enough.

I doubt it, just from this article, because most of my issues were with the monetization and 'running destiny 2 like a business' doesn't make me expect they'll fix my issues with it lol

I don't really think it's ever been a Pokemon knockoff in anything but the monster designs. And they're not going to change all of those, so.. it's just as a much a Pokemon knockoff as it's always been.

That's the point. You can't really build an advertising profile if they literally engage with every single thing all the time.

I read at one point it was thought the color would help keep pilots as alert as possible.

From my understanding, they appear to be coming from you- that's kinda the point.

or she has a significant Indian population in her district.

I'm in her district. No, we don't have a significant Indian population here. It's 68% white, and another 25% split between black and hispanic.

I've never really been on 4chan for any length, but I remember some of their greatest hits- managing to almost win a contest to name the next mtn dew flavor 'hitler did nothing wrong', or that one time they got Taylor Swift to do a show at a school for the deaf.

Kinda edgy, extremely amusing.

Yeah, I don't like Linus all that much but I do enjoy LTT's content overall. He tends to drastically and publicly overreact to literally any criticism, and then the rest of the team gets involved and he walks it back. Whether they legitimately change his mind or just convince him he's gotta look like he's changed his mind I have no clue.

My favorite instances of Linus are when he's an absolute idiot on the WAN show and we just get to see Luke's reaction live. The hard-r thing was absolutely hilarious.

In 2022 he tweeted this.

That might be what you're remembering, but he's definitely addressed his views on piracy during the WAN show several times as well.

Edit: someone else posted the full context elsewhere in the thread. I'd link to that comment, but idk how on lemmy so here: https://archive.ph/VavFc

No. The owner of the media has already been paid in both of those scenarios. It makes zero difference to them whether you're watching the ads.

Adblocking, on the other hand, is actively hurting the owner of the media because they get paid based on how many ads they can serve. If you block the ad, it isn't served, and they don't get paid.

Personally, I definitely think it's piracy. I also still do it.

I actually like it a lot ngl.

From the side it looks like the bastard son of a Frogfoot, the backside looks like they stole the tail rudders from an F-18 and strapped them on something F-14 adjacent.

The front is very A-10, just with the engines in a different orientation.

That's some 40k shit.

"What does it mean?" "I do not know, but it appeases the machine spirit. Quickly, recite the canticles."

That's kind of arbitrary, isn't it?

To me, being a good person extends to doing good while hopping on one leg.

That's ridiculous, right? That's obviously a definition of 'good' I'm creating, and choosing to impose on myself. Which is exactly what you're doing. Yours is just less ridiculous.

The heck is that three barreled Sherman?
