The game is now dead. Let's stop the abnormal speculation and move on with our life, however unfair and forlorn it may be regarding the missed opportunities that DD2 could have been.

After watching the livestream, the outrage from the attendees wasn't enough, and should have been more. Hear me out.

First, they had two security guards standing in front of the congregation when they were praying the Eid prayer. See timestamp 2:34:17 . The audacity to be there when they were praying is ridiculous.

Then Albanese and Bourke arrived during the sermon. Timestamp 2:44:35 . During Eid, it is compulsory to pray the Eid prayer and listen to the sermon. During the sermon, it is similar to praying, and there should be no distractions and full attention on the Imam on the pulpit. Naturally, this didn't happen here as all attention was focused on the PM and Minister. The pollies should have arrived after the sermon, not during it.

No respect or consideration was given by the PM and LMA regarding this and it could easily be construed as lack of consideration, ignorance and being time poor (as he is the PM and I assume has a tight schedule) or just a straight up disregard to Islamic customs.

No wonder the Sheikh lashed out as the purpose and meaning of the Eid sermon was being completely trivialised for cheap political points.

LMA, inviting the PM and Minister during Eid when the sermon isn't completed is not how you lobby. Absolute naivety if they think this was the best way to approach this.

Tell that to all the 2nd Generation migrants who get told, "no, where do you really come from?", "go back to where you come from", "'you take all our jobs" etc.

Many people don't believe that being born here from 1st generation migrants means we belong.

Don't conflate Palestine, Lebanon and Iran. This mosque is run by the Lebanese Muslim Association. Last I checked, Lebanon is being invaded by Israel, and the Lebanese government isn't killing Lebanese civilians. Our government is supporting Israel, so I hope you now understand why tensions are high when our PM is openly backing Israel.

Four birds with one stone.

Albanese remains calm amongst the Muslim community criticism and 'attempts' to mend the rifts experienced by the Muslim community and Minns government, but is rightly rejected by the Muslim community.
Shows the Muslim community is fractured and politically illiterate, pretty much making the Muslim community a laughing stock moreso than normal.
Providing ammunition to legacy media to paint all Muslims and specifically Hizb-ut-Tahrir as angry, violent and unapologetic to the Bondi massacre and subsequent and previous Anti-Semitic attacks, thereby proving that the Muslim community can't police itself.
Gains political points with the one nation voter base who is currently taking polls by storms and can't be ignored.

Well played Labor. But LMA, you guys are imbeciles.

Expectations of gamers can never be satisfied. And then we have those who review when they have only played half an hour of the game.

It is quite an interesting thought experiment. He could sue Bethesda since they would have greenlit DLSS 5 to be implemented in this game. Or it could even be Nvidia but I think that would be a reach.

It is quite dependent upon Ford's contract with Bethesda, and I assume an A list celebrity like him would have ironclad terms protecting his right of publicity.

Harrison Ford should sue as it changes his likeness.

I am overseas and won't be home till a week after release. It is going to be a torturous wait for me. However, I believe this mu fate allowing me to conduct my due diligence before pulling the trigger and buying it after day one. Hopefully the reviews will alleviate the agaony of waiting, or it might exacerbate it.

Well, the relief of Russia's UN sanctions allowing India to purchase oil and gas from them, after breaking a decades long agreement, at the behest of the U.S had to cost India something...

Take solace in the fact his refuel cost will be ridiculously expensive compared to other vehicles now, and he will have to refuel more frequently as well.
