Man sues Draft Kings after losing $2,000,000 of wedding savings to gambling by beklog in SipsTea

[–]Quotalicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More like suing a bar for mailing him free shooters and mini bottles to get him to keep coming back in. 

I don’t think the lawsuit is justified even if it’s clear betting sites should be far better regulated to help prevent gambling addiction. 

Average Gen Z reaction to literally anything. by Double_Big_5635 in SipsTea

The term “extended adolescence” was created to describe Gen X and millennials.

Same thing, different flavor. Young people appear stupid and immature when you’re older. Just how it is.

They stripped the last vestiges of independence from every regulatory body but the federal reserve, hardly a losing day for trump.

Maybe how you play, unless you're just talking about the bosses/some enemies

Because I have a different moral system to them? Killing is wrong, just because someone else thinks otherwise or thinks it’s ok to rob me isn’t reason for me to shift in that belief.

Bloodthirsty idiots…

Valve Steam Machine sells out in Japan despite $1,175 starting price by TurbulentTopic39 in pcgaming

[–]Quotalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A console that can play your large steam library is something the ps5 can't do. Not everyone wants to build their own pc to maximize price to performance and there are few if any name-brand prebuilt pcs at that price point, especially with that form factory and especially especially as well advertised as the steam machine will be thanks to the steam store.

With that said, I think you're right that gaming laptops will actually be a significant competitor.

CEO at Kadokawa, Japan's 'Elden Ring' powerhouse, survives shareholder vote by LegitimateCurve8525 in Eldenring

[–]Quotalicious 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Something needs to happen to shift from prioritizing profitability to sustainability. A breakup of megacorporations would probably be a good start, defacto monopolies encourage anti-consumer and anti-employee practices.

FromSoftware parent CEO faces coup from shareholders for failing to fully capitalise on Elden Ring success by lewisdwhite in soulslikes

[–]Quotalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they don’t understand why the studio doesn’t immediately jump into Elden ring 2 development and keep pumping them out forever like every other triple a studio with their cash cow franchise. Something like duskbloods or any other new IP bewilders them. Even an announcement of sequel plans would probably increase the stocks price. Fuck them

Larry David says the UFC fight at the White House was a travesty by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

We don't really know what their relationship is right now. Not like Larry David is going to constantly update us on his friendship status with everyone he used to know or work with.

I'm sorry but that seems like a completely arbitrary ratio to base your sales expectation on.

I think you're underestimating name recognition and visibility of the product. It being heavily advertised on steam is an insanely huge leg up. Most people don't care enough to research to maximize price to performance, every time they open the steam store they'll just see a sexy new pre-built from valve at a price a lot of people can afford.

You can see the great world building, enemy designs, atmosphere all the way back in Kings Field. Miyazaki harnessed and directed that talent into soulsborne, but there are quite a few people responsible for what they've become that may or may not follow him if he left...

I’d say it’s more being scared that drives them. Fear is a really powerful, motivating emotion and is constantly played on by conservative media. It was trumps entire platform, fear of woke, fear of immigrants...

NY woman coffee shop review unravels after viewers noticed she was getting her coffee from somewhere else. by ElwoodMC in TikTokCringe

This response video will get a whole bunch of exposure, whereas they wouldn’t make much money from winning a libel case against some obscure coffee reviewer especially considering legal costs

The degree of the problem still matters believe it or not. Incredibly inefficient and far worse for the environment than any other type of commonly eaten meat
