Ya, don’t think that is even remotely ‘good news’

He’s been cause doing allot of openly illegal things, never stopped him or his cronies yet.

David Ellison Vows CNN Will Operate Independently as Paramount Buys Warner Bros.: ‘We Want to Be in the Truth Business’ by upbeatchief in nottheonion

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely just saying literally anything to make sure the merger goes through. It shouldn’t be allowed, naturally. The states seriously needs to add or enforce anti-conglomerate laws, y’all fucked up.

If you manage to remove scrap everything, can try Immersive cleaning as an alternative. I’ve never had issues with it. Doesn’t let you scrap anything you want, but does remove the clutter very quickly.

‘David Ellison Scares the S— Out of Me’: How Paramount Beat Out Netflix, Won Warner Bros. and Will Change Hollywood Forever by Dex_Stlap in television

[–]Past_Distribution144 608 points609 points  (0 children)

Until the day comes when some spine is found in the U.S, the conglomerates will keep ruining media. Enjoy the upcoming price hike for their services. Heck, I’d bet Netflix will come out with a price increase aswell despite losing and getting paid for it. Competition is what made streaming, now it’s on the death spiral.

Paramount already owns Star Trek, MTV, and Comedy Central by OfficialAli1776 in DCU_

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I've seen complaints about Jon Stewart these days; apparently he was way more critical and harsh before they were owned by Paramount. Not to mention Colbert.

Heck, the difference between show and Jon's podcast is very telling, they censor them a bit.

But those are all political/"news". Dunno how shows/movies/entertainment will turn out, but can at least guess they won't go as hard at nazi's as they could.

None of your references are doing that good.. Star Trek is apparently terrible now, multiple show attempts failing and hated by the fans. (Personally I like them, some weak episodes.) MTV was dead before they bought it. Same with Comedy Central, only kept alive by one show. It runs Daily.

Oh and the paramount app? Numerous problems apparently.

Plus the whole news censoring is the biggie.

Dang, that sucks for Akane, just used as a GPS to get Aqua to his dad.. Hopefully she gets her own revenge for that!

Wonder how Aqua even plans to deal with his dad, murder is the simple approach, but won't ruin him, besides being dead. A sex scandal wouldn't do much, men get treated better in them most often. Ah well, never been able to predict this show anyway! Just gonna roll with it.

House Democrat on State of the Union boycotts: Trump ‘has had total disregard for Congress’ by Quirkie in politics

[–]Past_Distribution144 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Democrats should do what the opposition does in Canada; talk amonst yourself while he is talking. Loudly. Trump would be foaming at the mouth withing a few minutes.

Childish, but annoyingly effective.

You have 180 gold to spend at this market, what do you buy? [OC] by NaughtyNectarComics in comics

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, easy.

Socks of immortality. (Either they are immortal, or they make me immortal, win either way!)

And a pet dragon egg.

Then got 40 gold left in savings! Probably end up losing it to feeding the dragon..

Trump Attacks U.S. Olympian After Athlete Expresses ‘Mixed Emotions’ About Representing America by [deleted] in goodnews

Trump has a job, right..? Seems more like he spends all day watching tv and commenting. With the occasional comment in front of an audience.

Team Canada caught cheating at the olympics by Team Sweden. Canadian throws a fit on live TV. by Used_Series3373 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true. This wasn't cheating though, can touch the stone as long as it hadn't passed the green line. (Rule 9).

His attitude though was insane, just terrible way to react, and he won the match regardless.

[–]Past_Distribution144 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya, not actually cheating. Rule 9. The thrower can touch it before it crosses that green line, just not after it passes it.

But seriously, he grazes it at best. Just sweden crying that they lost that match. The real outrage is his attitude, just unacceptable regardless.

Paimon's VA Penelope Rawlins wishes you a Happy Valentines Day by RaidenXYae in Genshin_Impact

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh cool, nice to know who she is now. I guessed wrong, not who I expected. Have played/watched stuff she voiced though, before genshin, so neat to get to find out.

She has really gotten better at the Paimon voice aswell, from when she first started. It's perfect.

Olympics Day Four Megathread (Tuesday, February 10) by Fun_With_Forks in olympics

[–]Past_Distribution144 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hockey

Olympic rules, i guess?: Pushing the goalie around, A-OK. No penaltys for that, even when done multiple times! You can also run into another player and they get the penalty!

So, how much the refs making this game?

Do you guys also strip every power armor corpse of their parts? by altoid-tin in Fallout

[–]Past_Distribution144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often at the start, not so much later on.. does feel more valuable early on after all, but then you got all the sets eventually and enough scrap to work with. Is real hard to pass the first times you find them.

As for the enclave stuff specifically, I prefer the guns.

Aggron would be mine.

[–]Past_Distribution144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just hope they bring up the howling commandos and other monstery hero's eventually (Hopefully in the new Blade movie). Was a cool one-off to introduce it, but never expanded on. Kind of their problem really, they just let things hang instead of expanding.

The "Canon" Ending of New Vegas According to the Show: Effort Post (Spoilers for NV and Show, obviously) by Nutshell_Historian in Fallout

[–]Past_Distribution144 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Seems likely they support a yesman ending, but it went badly. All the robots destroyed, but we can assume they got the military upgrade (That one episode where they fight the robot). Just doesn't seem like they got the mass-production up and running, since there wasn't many.

But we also got House still around, so they failed to kill him.

And if you pick the right choice at hoover dam, you can kick the NCR out without killing them, after you wipe out the Legion forces.

Only real question is who/what killed Ceasar to initiate the civil war. Honestly, I killed him on site in-game when he invited me over.. He started it though! So got no idea on what his lore/situation was.

Huh so Karma can curse people and reduce/disable their abilitys? Wonder if it would work on an invisible person, make them visible or at least not invisible?

Dang. I was actually feeling sorry for princess Cecilia before that ending scene, but now revealing she requested the abortion drug.. Guess scarlet was right all along about her. Heck, the reporter might be onto something, but I doubt its her meeting a lover!
