I, like most guys in their late 30's, played a ton of shooters in the late 90's early 00's.
The last one I tried was Metro Last Light, and I couldn't finish it, it was a chore. I did like Deux Ex: Mankind Divided, and in the past couple years played and enjoyed Fallout 3, New Vegas, and 4. Still, none of those are really shooters, even though shooting is a core mechanic.
I'm not saying their direction is the best -- going more Deux Ex probably would have been more my speed -- but I do understand that they felt the need to change up the formula.
Tim Cain (of Fallout 1&2 fame) has a story he told on his YouTube about work he had done more recently and how inefficient it was. He wanted to test something and needed a very basic ai, something he said could easily be done in a few hours. The team told him "3 weeks." He eventually got them down to 2 weeks, but that is the kind of productivity these places have, turning a a 3 hour job into a 3 week job; no wonder things take so long.
I wonder if she considers Elon Musk an African American?
I watched a video of hers, and she was talking about how many more homeless there are in the US now and how dangerous they are, so I actually think she just doesn't understand the connection between her message and the consequences.
I've said it before, but when women subvert cultures it usually isn’t due to malice; it is the same reason Paul the Apostle forbid women in leadership in the church, "for it wasn't Adam that was deceived but Eve."
You make solid arguements, but there are no shades of gray for the conpro types. I would argue, however, that those of us who cheered for Afuerta and those downvoting you are mostly two separate groups of people on here.
My point wasn't for or against the value of the practice, but that going off documented beliefs and actions, it's a sentiment that goes back to before the destruction of the temple. This really shouldn't be too surprising, as orthodox Judiasm hasn't really changed much since the time of Christ; Titus destroying the temple seems to have locked their theology to where it isn't far from where the Pharisees had it even 2,000 years later.
Nice partial-sentence quote, the "couple decades after Christ" part is pretty important to the thought. Stephen was shortly after the crucifixion of Christ, but things settled down in Jerusalem, at least until Paul came around when he got arrested.
Before Jerusalem was sacked the Jews disliked goyim converting to Judaism, even to what they considered a heretical sect. A couple decades after Christ, the reason the Jews hated Paul but tolerated the Christians in Jerusalem is because Paul dared bring the message to goyim, whereas the church in Jerusalem was basically all Jewish Christians.
