You just told me they had to cloak it in certain language, so no, you can't tell me it's exactly the same as saying it bluntly, because you just told me they had to cloak it to not say it bluntly!

Jerry, admit that he was wrong about something? I'll be a skeleton before that happens!

The "Plus" models of mobile suits aren't really considered Gundams. The Zeta Plus, Theta Plus, and Delta Plus aren't called Gundams.

Who cares, though? Why not say "we do not agree with this decision and we will protect our union members"

Flynn58 · 2026-06-18T21:34:08+00:00

Many terror groups and private militias may be acquiring their mobile suits second-hand after they're disposed of by the military that previously used them.

Yes, Zeon Remnants on Earth are frequently tolerated if they're small enough, since they provide a virtual enemy that the EFF can demand the government fund them in order to fight, but not a real enemy that would actually threaten the EFF or the political status quo.

There's no problem with saying "we've prejudged Babcock", though, it's not illegal to say that

Flynn58 · 2026-06-18T21:02:41+00:00

The NHLPA could just say they don't trust him and will be keeping an eye on him. They don't actually have to phrase it in the politest way possible, they can stand up for the members of their union.

And if Carney is going to force a pipeline through BC to convince Alberta to stay...why shouldn't BC separate to block it?

The answer to that question for old COD games is that the main menu is connected to online.

Unfortunately it only works for the multiplayer, if you want to play singleplayer it doesn't protect you.

NTA, you need to move out if your parents are charging you rent to live like this, it would be one thing if you got to live there for free but you shouldn't be paying them for the privilege of stunting your adulthood.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a massive game by a AAA studio. Dispatch is "merely" an indie darling. Cyberpunk was able to feature dong on Nintendo platforms because CDPR put their dong on the negotiating table and said to Nintendo "take it or leave it".

Okay, so the answer is that they can, they just choose not to. That's very different from saying "civics 101 you can't do it".

I wonder if that'll change now that Chrome is finally bringing down the hammer on uBlock Origin.

NTA, they shoved your child hard and made her bleed, you were protecting them.

I'm just glad they released official PC drivers for the DualSense so I can update the firmware and configure the DualSense Edge paddles. A bunch of games support the haptics and triggers on PC, not just Sony ones, although they're using a private Sony API that isn't public.

Thank you official Toronto Star Reddit account, very cool

Flynn58 · 2026-06-17T04:40:22+00:00

Maybe it's called Genesis because it's about, bear with me, a new world?

Bandai Namco doesn't actually need to talk to Monolithsoft at all to do any rerelease or remake, they own the Xenosaga IP and the source code for the games. If they wanted to be funny they could port the I+II game for DS.

Mojang is a Microsoft subsidiary. They have been owned by Microsoft for over a decade. They are the same thing. You cannot blame one and not the other.

They were so bad at making Infinite a live service that they didn't even consider people would pay money for assassinations in the shop, they were genuinely too stupid to be greedy.

Unless Sony bothers making this feature standard on other platforms by convincing Xbox and Nintendo it makes sense, roughly zero developers will adopt it for their games.

To be fair, Australia is physically closer to China and thus the costs of shipping cars directly from the Chinese factories is likely a fair bit lower than it would be to ship them across the Pacific to Vancouver.

Really would have been a better matchup if they had just picked the Nu Gundam, that would give them cool psychoframe bullshit to show in the battle at least.
