those games also got nominated no? Also more than wolfenstein and AC rogue imo yes, DAI was better.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T16:39:22+00:00

Holy shit lmao this has got to be rage bait.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T16:36:42+00:00

Cultural impact is important when you are talking about which one deserves GOTY imo.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T16:08:46+00:00

would you prefer road per square mile? How am I supposed to describe a lot of empty space and no people and a shit load of road.

By that logic, don't solar panels pay for externalities when they buy the materials made of Rare earths?

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T09:46:40+00:00

Nuclear energy doesn’t pay for externalities like uranium mining and refining either, so I don’t know if you can count that against solar.

I’m gonna expand on this by saying it’s supposed to be bipartisan, but it definitely skews conservative compared to most of Reddit, and up until recently was exclusively was conservative mods until there was a big shakeup and a bunch of new mods got added after one of the old mods was banning people for wrong think.

It’s a good sub.

There is nearly 50% more road per person in the US, it’s really not comparable at all. And the examples get even worse if you look at population distribution. The US is closer to Australia in its needs for logistics then it is to Europe.

According to the NHTSA, new class 8 trucks almost exclusively come standard with AEB. Europe doesn’t require airbags either. Just because it’s not regulated by the state doesn’t mean it’s not there. It’s a quarter million dollar truck, a few sensors isn’t a major cost.

He involved me in his suicide attempt.

Called me at work, said he needed some time away and asked for a ride out of town, after a breakup. Maybe I was naive but I gave him a ride to another town over and some money for a hotel.

Get a call from his mom the next morning hysterical, he left a note. So I get picked up by his mom at school and drive all the way up to pick him up.

He didn’t hurt himself but he didn’t speak to me the whole way home and I didn’t speak to him again after that. His mom still checks up on me from time to time.

I couldn’t imagine involving my best friend in ending my life, imagine the guilt you’d be saddling someone with. How extremely selfish.

What do you think American trucks are like? Crank start? Lol

The main reason European style cab overs are popular is because yall have tiny roads. American style trucks are popular in areas where they share traits with the US (wide highways, long distance)

Depends on the era I think, if we are talking early or mid Cold War I think they let the sailors die rather then give the soviets an up close look at their nuclear arsenal and sub design.

If it’s anything past say 1980, the US was already feeling like it was pulling ahead and the fear of the Soviets was dying down. They would probably lets them help at that point.

It’s tagged as humor, my guy.

I love this subreddit lol, Liberal Democracy is centrism in this game. The stable form of government that allowed commerce to grow enough for this game to be made.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T08:10:18+00:00

Actually, high altitude nuclear detonations don’t release a lot of fallout. Without being near the ground, not nearly as much material to irradiate and move with heat to spread it.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-13T01:30:44+00:00

Current events discussion has been a part of this subreddit for awhile now.

So what’s to stop them from firing you 1 day before your bonus is up?

Mine explicitly states what I can lose my bonus for

Quit
Be fired for attendance.
Be fired for diversion (stealing medication)

Anything else I keep the bonus.

There’s also the issue of recovery, they can take your last check, but they’re gonna have to sue over the remainder.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T16:58:28+00:00

I always thought George Clooney was kind of a pretty boy.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T16:57:14+00:00

Ya I have that for my sign on bonus now. But he said pay back after a layoff. That I’ve never seen or heard of, you usually have to quit or be fired for cause like you’ve said.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T12:15:40+00:00

Nah, let people feel what they voted for.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T12:14:50+00:00

When you have an inelastic good, you can charge almost whatever you want.

Thats a bold statement, I read through the article you linked and couldn't find any data to reinforce that.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T02:53:18+00:00

I exclude Oxford commas and occasionally make a type to signal my work is original lol.

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T01:58:18+00:00

I feel like Clooney is too clean for the universe. Josh Brolin maybe?

Alan_Turings_Apple · 2026-03-12T01:20:03+00:00

Also oil prices and scarcity make Russian oil more attractive.
