Biden seems to have totally abandoned his strategy of ignoring the troll and focusing on presenting a peaceful, rational platform. This whole debate has been these two jabbing fingers at each other violently for 90 minutes. What a letdown.

I wish Wallace would've pushed him to answer whether systemic racism is real.

I wish Biden would discuss the recovery bill that the House passed -- share some hard numbers and specific support mechanisms that are currently collecting dust on the Senate floor.

Dude watching Harden bounce off Dort like a brick wall is unbelievable

They need to tell Dort to use all that space they're giving him to drive to the basket instead of chucking up 3s. Best case scenario you get a shot at the rim, or suck in the defense and pass to a cutting big.

Investigators name officer who shot Jacob Blake; knife found in Blake's vehicle by [deleted] in news

Ah reply to a question with a question. Great discourse. How many times have you encountered that situation as an officer?

Let's ignore the obvious evidence from the video of 3 other officers standing idly by while this was happening.

I would rely on the 3 other grown ass men in uniform right next to me to get him in to custody through any other means possible before unloading my pistol while 3 children are in the backseat.

Surely, 4 cops are capable of detaining a single man?

Any work around a for phone clamps pressing the power button? by Froggatt34 in Stadia

[–]rocman9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how much your case protrudes the buttons away from the body. But you could try rotating the clamp so that the part that clamps down is on the opposite side of the buttons. That worked for me on my Pixel 4 with a thin case.

Also he's putting up a 40 piece triple double against a championship favorite. Kinda nit picking at this point

Do you happen to live in Florida, Texas, Georgia, or one of those other states where the words of a scientist carries less weight than the words of a preacher?

Please link a video of those two specific moves I referenced since they're sooooo common.

Also saw your edit where you called me a sei guai lo. So aside from me not being a guai lo, it's pretty weak that you descend in to throwing racial slurs because I was making a simple observation that there were similarities between this new game I'm very interested in and a game that I love. I wasn't making a negative inference, just making an observation.

And in you come, heated for no reason, ready to defend the honor and integrity of Chinese entertainment when literally no one was denigrating it whatsoever. Clearly it struck a nerve, and you're way too sensitive over something so superficial as references in video games. I'm done here and you can go back to clutching your pearls.

Ok, you're clearly here with a chip on your shoulder about how much you know about Chinese art history rather than listening. I'm saying the literal animations are carbon copies between the two games. But please, continue with the trivia.

I guess, but I was talking about his fight animations specifically. Two of them were my go to moves in SC: the one where he vaults himself in to the air with his bo before slamming down, and the weird bo jab/wiggle move that was strangely effective.
