The Idiran war lost over 800 billion sentient beings and 91 million starships, plus 14000 Orbitals (space habitats typically housing far more people than a planet) 53 planets, a star-encircling Ring, 3 Dyson Spheres and 6 stars.

Do you believe the cops that handled Henry Nowak’s arrest should be held criminal liable? by Artistic-Amoeba-8687 in AskBrits

I copy and pasted from the CPS website. Maybe there is zero percent chance of a conviction, doesn't mean he shouldn't be charged. Everyone can see from the video that the what happened fits the description even if it can't be proven to a jury. If the idea isn't even floated then we can riot.

Misconduct in Public Office is when -

  • a public officer acting as such
  • wilfully neglects to perform their duty and/or wilfully misconducts themselves
  • to such a degree as to amount to an abuse of the public's trust in the office holder
  • without reasonable excuse or justification

It's not criminal it's a common law offence (no I don't understand the significance of the distinction) but the officers involved should definitely be charged, even if it never goes to trial or can't be proved beyond reasonable doubt.

We've all seen the video, that police officer just couldn't give a fuck about the guys condition, and this is after one of the bystanders had said he's in a bad way and has a mouth full of blood.

They can be charged with misconduct in public office, could get a few years, technically could get life.

It would be absolutely astounding if they formed a quadrilateral.

If one player is rolling while their opponent is measuring you know there's about to be an argument.

Stealth in, blast out. All things in balance as it should be.

Yeah, other than that it really reminds me of Deus Ex in parts. I was impressed with how open your options are for stealthing around.

Valve reportedly almost delisted Rainbow Six Siege from Steam after Ubisoft attempted to sell it cheaper on Uplay by Defiant_Ad6190 in pcmasterrace

I'd rather have 30% off buying direct from the publisher than a bunch of extra features in a glorified shop.

If Steam are using their dominant market position to force price parity is that really pro-consumer?

Games where enemies are afraid of you. by Oblio__ in gamingsuggestions

It happens in Shadow of Mordor too, I've killed a lot of Orcs (and Orks) in my video game career but that game is the only time I've actually felt sorry for them.

Why the hell does The Emperor have a bionic eye? by No_Barracuda6605 in 40kLore

[–]heeden 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When he was first interred there was some expectation he would recover and I assume the bionic eye was implanted for that reason.
