I'm referring to the spoilers for the changes incoming in update 2.0.

Not everyone likes to read what's changed and want to experience it first hand. MAXTAC was not in the base game and is a huge part of the consequences of your actions on the street.

The conspiracy theorist in me always thought stuff like this was the result of corporate espionage; a loyal employee of a rival firm joins their competitor's ranks and works their way up and finally gets the commanding role, only to announce something this dumb and then take it back (losing their reputation without anything in return) and then the guy leaves the company and finds a comfortable position on the board of their original rival company.

But... No? These people really are that stupid and actually did that to themselves.

And these are the people being paid 300x the salary of ordinary, hard working people!

This... Isn't the answer.

More to the point, every answer to this question is talking about something completely different. Vader was distracted. Vader was only clued into Leia's existence after Luke thought about her. Vader had too much on his plate...!

But this answer, even among all the above, is reaching at things that just make no sense. By your logic, every force user would be crippled at the battle of Geonosis, with hundreds of jedi and sith present.

Qui-Gon and a young Obi-Wan took on Darth Maul, where the latter was able to use his ability without seemingly any hindrance at all. Similarly with Obi-Wan and Anakin against Count Dooku. When Yoda steps in, it's 3 jedi against Dooku. There's no evidence of Dooku bring weakened, as he matches Yoda in force abilities without much effort. By your logic, the sith in both encounters should have been weakened. That is clearly not the case.

The simple and obvious truth is this: at the time of writing, Lucas never intended for Leia to be Luke's sister (hence their kiss) and so, there simply wasn't anything for Darth Vader to sense. Retconning that and then adding in some wishy-washy explanation just trashes the credibility of the franchise.

I've tried to keep my spoilers to a minimum, but from what I've read, MAXTAC has their own siren. At 5* wanted level, when you hear their siren, a little bit of poo will come out.

Police are apparently relentless too - at all wanted levels. Oh, and straying into a gang's territory with police on your tail can lead to interesting results lol.

I seriously can't wait! I love netrunning, now I can be the netrunning demon everyone fears!

Layer 1, Later 2, Lazer 3.

FTFY

"Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, Lauren Boebert got fingered in a public theatre, or that she was dry jerking her bf in public while her divorce is still warm, nobody panics, because it's all "part of the plan". But when I say that AOC was protesting abortion rights outside the supreme court, well then everyone loses their minds!"

If this wasn't linked within the first hour of this post, I would have been amazed. Such an awesome show!

Why would I want a folding phone? I want my phone to be as rigid as possible.

Well, if rigidity is what's holding you back, there are some devices out there that won't disappoint . The prices are quite high though, but they've come a long way from their first iteration...

It doesn't strictly require TPM in the sense that you can make a modded install disk that does away with the TPM check altogether. People are able to install windows on all sorts of devices now.

Microsoft may have pushed hard on wanting you to have TPM, but it's more because they didn't want to deal with the plethora of bugs that come about as a result of inferior hardware.

Windows is still my OS of choice as any misgivings like ads etc can be disabled with a few steps . Is it annoying? Sure, but unlike Macs, I'm able to do something about it when I find something annoying instead of hoping the next OS update deals with it.

The articles I've read about Uttar Pradesh contain some of the absolute worst crimes I've ever read about outside of war. It must be an absolute hellhole for there to be so many violent crimes that are in the realm of extremely disturbing.

Wait, are you saying Elon Musk's actions directly resulted in innocent women and children being murdered?

It would be terrible if more people started saying that Elon Musk murdered innocent women and children.

Time for superroot!

"Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid."

Unfortunately with games like Starfield inbound, keeping player retention means patching things the players aren't happy with. They may be crunched but I hope they're being compensated well for it and get a long break after

The joke is less funny if you describe it that way though.

What's Bricsies, precious? Can we eats them?

Prison isn't like work. Sure there's a lot to not like about work but comparing it to prison is a step too far

For me, Lemmy has become almost like Reddit lite, as I've found many of the communities I enjoyed on Reddit

I’m not sure what she’s upset about

I mean we can all sympathise. We know why she's upset. If she took more than a couple of minutes to calm down, she'll argue herself that the country needs tourists and that they can't be blamed for wanting to make the most of their holidays.

Out of personal experience, it's incredibly frustrating to see people happy and smiling when your whole world is collapsing around you. It's irrational but it makes sense.

If you aren't seeing politics in anime, stop taking breaks!
