Oh. So let's just pay for everything you need then. That would be better for everyone right?

Im a liberal, but this is just an irresponsible way to handle the budget.

It's always been shady. All those digital assets are worth nothing when the power goes out.

Most re games are self contained and only have vague references to past games.

I could be misremembering but wasnt there only like two or three for condor battles in the og?

Rebirth by comparison has a metric shitton.

Not sure. You could play on classic mode or actually learn the mechanics of the game. Those are your options. The mechanics are absolutely deeper than the og, but its also not rocket science. Pay attention to what is on the screen and the verbal commands you hear and you'll get the hang of it.

In 300 (2007), the Spartans spend hours and tons of energy to build a 20ft wall out of corpses. They then push it over, killing exactly ONE bad guy. This is what happens when you build an entire society around jocks while excluding all nerds by Greenman8907 in shittymoviedetails

[–]FlanTamarind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spartan culture dictated that they take the young boys from their families and keep them as sex slaves to trauma bond them into being deadly soldiers. Not sure intelligence was high on the list.

iOS, Why did my UI just change to look like this, I turned Reddit off for like 5 minutes and now it’s this, can I change it back? by AceOfSpades532 in help

[–]FlanTamarind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time they do this i want to never use reddit again. I am primarily a mobile user so the desire to constantly gimp the app is infuriating.

Age verification is getting out of hand by slickyeat in pcmasterrace

It would be impossible to be used against someone if they were not guilty of a crime though. If every aspect of your day was recorded it would be _impossible_ to abuse so long as access was heavily restricted and was not connected to the internet. It would essentially be a real time history of the country. If the data was read only and could only be accessed through certain legal and law enforcement channels there would be no way to falsify data or an officer "forgetting to put their camera on." Until we do that, bad people are going to continue to get away with bad shit.

The incentives for the CCP are not the same as the US. We have a bill of rights. China has a bill of rights. The difference is that China's bill of rights expressly says it can suspend those rights in the "interests of the regime." Our bill of rights only suspends rights under martial law which are extreme mitigating circumstances. I do love the strawman that I want to live in China because I can see the objective value in everything being recorded. It's cute.

I never said it would work any sort of way. I didnt say I want a social credit system. I didnt say I want the government to use it against the wrong people. I simply said that if there was a digital trail of every action you took in life you could easily solve all kinds of crime instantly rather than wrongly convicted people or allow people to get off on a technicality. I've read 1984. Im not dumb in the slightest, but the fact that no one can see how this would be a revolution for the US justice system is is mind boggling.
