Yes, this means they sold a lot of PS5s, very surprising. The PS4 was extremely successful

I think he is already scheduled to star in the MLK movie, so not sure he would have the time

It’s an interesting debate, if what we are seeing now is the natural, inevitable progress of capitalism, or it could have gone a better way, but eg. Reagan fucked it up for all of us in the 70s.

People who want to play a finished game, when paying full price? Yes, they do

Now it is also prescribed for obesity, not just diabetes. And I think very much worth it from a societal perspective, as the healthcare costs of obesity are extreme.

They are, and they absolutely changed my life. I was never obese, but almost always overweight since childhood.

As an adult, I used Saxenda (liraglutide) for almost 3 years, prescribed by my gastro doc. I lost 25 kgs with it, out of which only 3 was muscle mass. I only needed half the max dose, and now they even have a newer and more effective formula.

I was afraid I would gain it back after stopping, as I was warned, but I stopped half a year ago, and I lost 5 kg more with only diet since then. And by diet I don’t mean starving myself, just switching to super healthy and natural stuff, and staying away from processed food.

Before this med, I ate too much, and even though I tried to stay away from stuff with added sugar or too much fat, it just added up. The drug took away my excessive hunger, and at the beginning I just ate less, but after a few months I also changed my diet to be more fresh and healthy, and the fat just kept melting away.

Now I’m in my mid 30s, and look better then ever, and also got rid of health conditions (like minor high blood pressure) that would cause a mess later. And again, I was never obese, only overweight, so I can’t even imagine the impact this would have on dangerously obese people.

Incredible technology, I think a lot of people will take these in the future. And my case shows that it’s not true that you have to take it forever: if you can adjust your diet and life over a period of a few years, your body will “heal” and help you to keep the fat down later.

Obesity is a disease, so it should be treated as such. It’s not more of a personal failure then getting lung cancer from smoking.

Yet tobacco companies are shamed and taxed, while the sellers of addictive junk foods and sugary waters are thrivingcand marketing for children.

And at the end, people are dying, and taxpayers are paying the cost for capitalist greed.

I actually ate horsemeat once at a (supposedly) Mongolian restaurant. Nothing memorable compared to other types of meat

No, that is wrong. You have to wait for them to be born, as all life is sacred. After that, they can die of measles or rot on the street, it doesn’t matter anymore

2030: By the implementation of AI, the orphan crushing machine can now process 35% more biomass per hour, providing a sustainable power source to our server parks

Took this photo in Valletta in 2018. I already knew the story from articles, but seeing this in person hit me like a freight train.

The rich and powerful cynics stomp on us like we are insects. And the world has only gotten worse since then (for us, they are doing great).

True rawdogging was limewire.

Once after 3 days of downloading a concert video, it turned up to be some random porn.

I heard that Hegseth was seen in some DC grocery stores in the early mornings, switching the price tags on eggs, making them more expensive

The next part doesn’t even need to be modified:

But she's touching his chest now
\ He takes off her dress now
\ Let me go

\ And I just can't look it's killing me
\ And taking control
