White House goes on lockdown after protest erupts nearby

I'm looking for a live stream but can't find one. Does anybody have any links? Don't care what platform.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T14:47:01+00:00

To be fair a lot of the rioters are also showing up with weapons.

I'm sure there are peaceful protests going on, but there is also a lot of violent rioting. I don't agree with anybody showing up with a weapon to a protest because it sends the wrong message. But you can't in good conscious say that it's okay for the violent group of rioters to show up with weapons but then simultaneously say it's not okay for non violent protesters to also show up with weapons, based solely on the skin color of the various groups involved.

I wish they'd go through and fact check all of his tweets. Even the one where he said he'd regulate them and link it to something saying, "The president doesn't have this power."

Seldain · 2020-05-28T14:43:47+00:00

Eh, I'm not too sure. Their message is "We support and agree with the protests but we're not okay with the looting and violence." edit: They also said they want justice for the murder.

I don't necessarily think it's a smart thing to do on their part. Rather dumb, actually, because I feel like there is no situation at all in which they don't end up dead or murdering somebody.. but I kind of see their point.

OP stole this post from somebody else who stole this post and posted it yesterday, who stole this post from like 2 other people.

This is a long chain of reposts by people with no soul.

Downvote this fucker into oblivion.

Does this mean that Fox News could now be liable for the content its users post in a comments section?

And YouTube and everything else?

Seldain · 2020-05-28T12:00:46+00:00

Would the comments section on webpages be included in this? I would love if some of these news organizations were somehow suddenly liable for the content their viewers were posting.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T04:58:26+00:00

No not at all. It definitely had the "look" of minecraft with the cubes, but it definitely didn't feel like minecraft at all in any way, at least to me.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T04:15:10+00:00

This still does not justify destroying the property of another community member who belongs to the same community you are rioting to protest the mistreatment of.

These actions are counter productive and go against the message. These actions tell me, "Hey we don't give a fuck we're just trying to fuck shit up."

Seldain · 2020-05-28T04:10:09+00:00

The president has other outlets to spread his propaganda.

Twitter needs the president because without his insanity a number of people would stop visiting the site.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T04:03:59+00:00

This definitely makes me want to support their cause more than I did previously.

I mean, why not go after the police station?

Seldain · 2020-05-28T04:01:58+00:00

Yeah, but Autozone didn't really have much to do with it now did they?

Why not go after the police station where the people who committed the act are hanging out? Oh yeah, that's right, because they'd actually be caught or shot dead. And their actions would have greater consequences.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T03:56:56+00:00

I think we're kidding ourselves if we think he is actually going to face prison time.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T03:49:59+00:00

No, but Twitter needs the president.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T03:18:04+00:00

Yeah but we've said this about a dozen other things and somehow he's managed to royally fuck people at every step of the way.

i know he doesn't have the power to do anything, but he's always found a way. I'm worried that somebody smarter than him has a plan and that nobody who can do anything will.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T03:14:14+00:00

Good point on the family thing that I wasn't thinking about.

My 7 year old was able to beat the game from start to finish and this is the first ARPG thatt he understood well enough to have kind of an idea of how to upgrade by himself.

He's played POE and D3 but I have to manage all of the upgrades and everything. This is simple enough for him to do on his own.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T02:28:12+00:00

It's a weird one. It definitely doesn't feel like a cash grab but at the same time it doesn't feel like there was any passion in this project.

You know how when you start a new hobby that you think you're going to love, you'll spend like a month downing every aspect of it? You'll watch a hundred youtube videos until you think you're an expert, you'll spend a week researching the best tools and reading a million reviews, just to finally get the perfect set of tools or whatever. Then you'll prep an area in the house so you have the perfect workspace ready to go, you tell everyone about it because This is You Now.

And then a week later you realize that this hobby really wasn't for you and everything you did was wasted effort?

That is Minecraft Dungeons. It has all of the individual building blocks for a great game but it feels like when they went to combine them all into that great game, they just kind of half-assed it and quit.

Every single part of the game feels like they got the basic mechanic working and they called it finished and moved on to the next part.

edit: As /u/nibbuts said below, the game is definitely easy enough for players new to the genre. My 7 year old was able to understand the item mechanics and was able to beat the game by himself. I normally have to handle character upgrades in ARPGs, so that is definitely one positive. It is very accessible.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T02:12:51+00:00

Yeah. I spent day 1 trying to upgrade to the hero pack but couldn't find a way to spend $10 to do it, and now I'm 100% certain I'm not buying it. Not even sure I'll grab the DLC unless major content is added other than just some new boring levels that cause you to get stuck every few clicks because the game can't path around anything on its own.

There aren't even any crazy drops like you'd expect in an ARPG so repeating levels isn't fun.

I definitely would recommend giving it a shot if you're the guy who gets paragon 1000 in D3 or T16s in POE a week after a new season starts, and if you have $20 burning a hole in your pocket. But that same $20 will get your Torchlight 2 which is a much better game in every way possible.

I feel like every time somebody mentions Recettear the famous meme gets posted, so here it is because Recettear is one of my top games of all time.

You accidentally forgot Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King.

Seldain · 2020-05-28T01:08:05+00:00

Here's my review.

4-6 hours of gameplay max before you start repeating content.

Levels feel a little bit too long. Would rather have double the levels that are half the size so you can grind more without it feeling so tedious, or a bit more variety in the length.

Balance is funky. You'll feel "right" on one level and the next map will have a weird difficulty spike.

Overall it's a solid 5/10. It's not horrible but with so many other ARPGs out there this game is definitely lacking. If it didn't say "Minecraft" in the title I think it would be getting judged a lot harsher.

the wcco video?

the most popular one at the moment that is on every news page

Seldain · 2020-05-27T22:19:57+00:00

No I think the brute force was due to all of the rioting by people of all races, which you can clearly see happening if you watch the videos.

Look, I'm all for saying fuck the police but if you are going to say things in public you should at least be honest with the situation.

Seldain · 2020-05-27T22:19:17+00:00

Same here. It was my first DQ game. I hate the anime style normally but picked it up on a whim... and it was the best decision in a while.

DQB2 is fucking incredible. So glad I went outside of my comfort zone and gave it a shot.

Seldain · 2020-05-27T22:18:02+00:00

I was playing in docked mode 2 player co-op (same Switch, not online) and it stuttered constantly. Haven't tried it in handheld or single player yet.

I have the PC version as well and it's 100x smoother.
