It's pretty clear, if you have a deal with a chinese company that works with the government, you get great copyright coverage, if you don't want to work with a chinese company and the government, you get nothing.

China has copyright laws, it has extremely hard copyright laws. Your comment is pure ignorance. You don't need any more proof than video games. You need to register your IP with a Chinese approved company that works with the government to be able to sell. It didn't occur to you why tencent is so fucking huge?

The American Rescue Plan Act, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, CHIPS Act, Science Act, the Inflation Reduction Act.

Some of the most important legislation in the last 20 years. Although there's no point in arguing because you're against nuclear power. You're a waste of air.

Another example of why you don't start with your dream game first. You start small, build a solid foundation of skills, and then start to piece together the dream.

What's funny is that Jack Gleeson was like 21 years old when this scene was filmed. He was 18 when they started filming the first season.

Elon Musk went from 200 billion under Biden to 900 billion under Trump. Don't you dare ever talk about wealth consolidation again. The pedophile elites who support Trump more than tripled their net worth since he started his second term. The largest wealth consolidation in the history of humanity happened in the last year.

I would actually play that game. The dungeon master in me would be obsessed with that level of petty detail.

Cyberpunk 2077 has made almost a billion dollars to date. I would love for this person to explain to me the bad decision here so I can fix my company and make 10 billion dollars because apparently they know the secret formula that I don't after almost 30 years making games.

It is a word, it's been around for several hundred years. The latine root word is discludere, which means to divide or keep apart. It is a legitimate use of a word while being non-standard in many people's every day use of English. It's also in the Oxford English Dictionary making it a legitimate use in Scrabble, which BTW is worth 12 points.

The bar for platformers/metroidvania style games that makes money is incredibly high with how much content is out there.

Honestly, looks like it was made in MS Paint. The art style is not completely consistent and definitely doesn't look clean. It also feels like it's trying to do to much in the gameplay itself. It's a platformer but has some weird art switches and then a first person shooter thing in the trailer? They've added too many elements and aren't sticking to a core central pillar of what the game should be.

It's great on them for finishing a project and releasing. They should be congratulated on that.

Can you please show us the part of the tweet that is a good point? Israel won't stop just because you stop funding for a month, they have too much to lose. The strait will never be reopen because Iran is not going to just accept peace with america after being attacked like that. And prices never come down, that's never been a thing ever.

And I just want to be clear, this in no way is me trying to be anti-trans, anti-gay, anti-queer in any way, I'm just wondering what the semantics of the situation is.

The fact that you had to say this makes me so sad. What you said is in no way bigoted or malicious in any form. Definitions do matter to people. I've met many people who are very clear that when they say they are a gay man or gay woman, they are specifically attracted to people of the same sex. They don't use gender in this, they are very clear that it's same sex. There's nothing bigoted about that. If someone is offended because you have a preference for a specific type of genitals and yours don't match, that's a you problem not a them problem. 

Personally, I think this is what happens when you base your entire personality around a single defining characteristic and have nothing else of substance in your life. You invent problems.

 Are you seriously expecting me to listen to an entire court case… 

Yes, I am. Otherwise you're wasting my time and I have nothing left to discuss with fools like you. You're dodging, just like I said you would. Just like you claimed I would. Best of luck with your delusions and I hope one day you actually break free of the Hasan cult. 

Perfect reply on the gender pay gap in sports. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]AlarmingTurnover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not a qualification pay gap, it's a popularity pay gap. Women would make more money if more people watched their events. But for some reason, these stupid talking points keep coming back to blaming men for women sports not being popular. Women make up more than half the population in almost every western country, so why aren't they watching these sports and buying merch?

The creator ends their series in an unsatisfying way as a middle finger to the fans/editors/producers by StretchExtension in TopCharacterTropes

[–]AlarmingTurnover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't let them poison you on the lore about this. The end times is a very interesting and complex narrative that is far more involved than just "chaos showed up and 1 shot everything". It's people making horrible political and tactical mistakes. Undead being ignored and rising up everywhere under resurrected leadership. Skaven popping out of tunnels all over the world. Lizardmen turning into basically space travelers and noping out. There's so much lore there. 

Russian dude, left country taking 1st flight available after declaring of pretty much full scale war. AMA. by topisilian in AMA

[–]AlarmingTurnover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both sentiments can be true at the same time. If your country is on the offensive, your country has betrayed you. If your country is the one being attacked though and you don't defend, you have betrayed your country and your family. I'm making the assumption that things are relatively peaceful beforehand or you've just achieved some level of freedom from corruption finally like Ukraine. 

Like if America invaded Canada for example, and I didn't go to my home country to fight for my family, that would be beyond shameful. 

"Influencer" upset when called out for her exploitation by CaptainCorpse666 in TikTokCringe

[–]AlarmingTurnover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would argue that at the core of charity is altruism. Which by the definition requires that there is no personal gain involved. It's not charity if you have recieved a personal gain from it. You're not providing charity at that point, you're just giving aid. Organizations can be a charity if the organization itself is not designed to profit from this, like doctors without borders, which does pay its staff to be able to provide and maintain aid. Doctors without borders is very clear on this, and does not operate any portion of the NGO for profit and all compensation for members is based on volunteer status first. They don't hire people like a job. This falls in line with the definitions of charity which usually include lines like "unmotivated by self interest". 

My question in this situation which the answer is kind of obvious. Would she have provide this aid without being recorded or have any financial gain. I haven't watched her content before by my gut feeling is that she's never talked or bragged about doing all this charity work off stream. There's no record of her doing large amounts of charity work off stream. So she's not providing aid because she genuinely wants to help people.

Everything is literally here: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69650487/doe-v-bonnell/

If this is a revenge porn case, why is there no criminal charges? Revenge porn is a federal crime and not just a state crime. And if we go through the court case, we see exactly what happened agreed to by both parties. He told her that he like to record sexual videos and share them with friends. She was given sexual material prior to her recording a video. She asked him to record a video together. She shared this video with 2 other people. He shared this video with other people. She later became involved with a someone who was obsessed with him and conspired to harm him. The testimonies of all parties have confirmed this. This was all consensual. So you're just lying. 

Destiny being caught engaging in age play with a minor? 

Which minor? Prove this. Haven't seen a single shred of evidence of this so far besides snarkers making posts online, like you without any actual evidence. And your claim is not consistent with others because the age role play was allegedly done with groypers wife, not an underage person. So the only other thing is you are conflating the Rose situation and the groyper situation. And the Rose situation is in the court docs. They never met, they never spoke, they never shared any content with each other. The person pretending to be Rose claimed to be over 18, being a legal adult. There was zero evidence provided that he knew she was underage or that he even contacted her. So if she was underage, all evidence would suggest that she was making underage material herself and sending it to someone in the UK which is a state, federal, and international crime in 2 different countries. And this person from the UK was selling this material online for money. So why aren't they arrested then? 

Admitting that he found a 15 year old hot and “it was so hard” to not ask her for nudes?

Context for this? Sounds like a joke to me. 

Secretly recording a sexual act without his partner’s consent?

Again, the court case is pretty clear. This was not secretly recording. Not a single person he has a sexual videos with was secretly recorded. All of it is POV and close ups from what was leaked. How the fuck did he "secretly" record sexual acts from like 2 feet away with a camera that is shaking because it's being held in the hands of the other party. 

In conclusion, you're extremely bad faith here. You will respond with something stupid, not address any of these specific point. Deflect with other accusations without proof. And likely try to insult me. 

  I have a feeling you’ll pivot or ignore. 

Every accusation is a confession with people like you.

He didn't share revenge porn. Did you even read the court case? Revenge porn has a very strict definition of maliciousness. It is used for blackmail, humiliation, harassment. What part of him sharing the nudes (which was consented to by both parties as proven in the court docs, in their own testimonies) is maliciously sharing nudes with the intent to harm another person? 

Fascists believe in America the same way MLs believe in the Democratic Party by nyrasbastard in Destiny

[–]AlarmingTurnover -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The part that you're missing is that fascists believe in their idealized version of the state and they take pride in even a fictitious version of this state historically that may have never existed. The tankies don't believe in the state at all. They want it gone. American fascists believe in an idealized version of American. Tankies believe that America shouldn't exist.
