I get being weary of a dog that is coming at you at a reasonable speed... but to go from that to drawing a gun and shooting it ? Don't cops have a baton or similar blunt melee weapons he could use to shield himself in case the dog was actually hostile ? The wasn't even showing any signs of aggressive behaviour from what I could see in the video.

Are cops nowadays not trained in anything except drawing and shooting ? Did the bar to which an officer can start carrying a gun lower so much that any idiot who can draw and shoot is given a badge.

I'm neither an American or a dog owner and this video still looks like insane amounts of incompetence to me. I've never met a dog that is particularly cunning in disguising that he is going to attack you, almost all of them signal pretty clearly, baring their fangs, growling, body position and barking.

Hope he wins universe as well so we can have one more kick to the balls of every person to hopefully get this ship turned around before it's too late.

Then again things are already so absurd that this probably wouldn't even get anything more than a shrug.... in which case at least I can get some schadenfreude from women losing some of their spaces as well.

If I was being arrested and the cop pulled out pink handcuffs I think I'd doubt whether he/she was a real cop and start to struggle assuming it's some kind of rapist instead.

I have yet to see mokujin in any of the France footage so I think we are still safe on the Tekken connection

Probably with the Afghani equivalente of uncle tom. He helped the US army and he earned his place so I'd assume that he would leave a bitter taste in their mouths as the useless wastes of space they tend to be.

This usually results in them lashing out so I like my odds on my prediction

If tekken was responsible for the riots I'd expect to see more androids, demons, tigers, pandas and a whole bunch of different foreigners invading france to have themselves a first fight..... and yoshimitsu would be there being his silly self.

So the strat is to build a fence around the sniper then ? Can't wait for the general whose name will go down in history for the fence tactic of 2027

The real problem is that there is almost no difference from a bot and an NPC so it becomes a lot harder to tell them apart.

Someone should make one of those games where you have to guess if it was made by chatgpt or a leftist NPC

I've never had to change a phone because of batteries (at least not a smartphone) so.....shrug.

It won't have any effect on me either way, I can see it being useful for people who spend time away from a place where they can charge often so swapping out the batteries for new ones that haven't decayed into needing to be charged at all times would be useful.

On the other hand new restrictions means that businesses might just opt out from the market and having to change design to accommodate government interference usually results in higher costs which means either less profit per sale or higher prices which results in less overall profit for the region and more incentive to not sell there.

So back to having no idea of it will be a good or bad thing but it will probably at the very least be a good excuse to increase prices

"The guns are too heavy, if the guns were lighter then obviously women and children would be just as competent Navy SEALS."

That is my bet at least since it seems that lifting something gives you instant ability to use it.

I can't carry a firearm (as I'm not american) but I know all of the others and I don't see what any of them have to do with a firearm.

First Aid - Gun is more of a deterrent and if not then the one needing first aid will probably be the criminal so nothing of worth was lost anyway. Things get way messier if you have to knife fight or even fist fight someone.

Put out a fire - I know it's called a "fire"arm but it's not a fucking flamethrower nor does your arm catch on fire when you shoot....maybe if you douse it in gasoline and are using a musket

Stay calm under extreme stress - again the gun is to stop you from getting into positions of extreme stress any close range combat with deadly weapons is a lot more stressful than something involving range, especially when you have the advantage of it and the enemy does not.

But then again I live in a country where firearms are a rarity, what is your friends excuse ?

Stills baffles me how much of the universal truths of running a business people used to have back in the day have been thrown out.

Sex sells.....out the windows.

No politics....in the garbage

Hire based on skills/merit......shot from a cannon

Respect your customers.......LOL

and on and on.

So the trannies are hanging in there. Then again 4k participants and only in Denmark might tilt the results. Also at what stage of the procedure where they ? I'd assume most suicides are at the end when they realize that there isn't a promised land at the end of the rainbow.

Also were they actual trannies are just internet "trannies" ?

A lot of questions I'll hopefully get answered when I actually read the thing.....BUT...

Conclusions In this population-based, retrospective cohort study, transgender individuals identified through hospital records and administrative records of legal change of gender had significantly higher rates of suicide attempt, suicide mortality, suicide-unrelated mortality, and all-cause mortality compared with the nontransgender population.

Standardized IRs of suicide mortality per 100 000 person-years were 75 among transgender individuals vs 21 among nontransgender individuals

True enough, though their reduced budget does show a bit. Supposedly 6 sold well so 7 (if it ever releases) might have a better budget but I worry every time that they will listen to their vocal lefty communities and censor the fuck out of it.

A full budget single player Soulcalibur (like soulcalibur 3 had) would be a dream fighting game for me.

I play a lot of Soulcalibur but I mostly play single player (with some mods to make the AI harder) and every time I try to watch a tournament it's always lefty politics from the commentators.

I just want to watch the matches and not have to listen to the retards narrating it

Fighting games DLC practice is......well it depends on the game really and it's hard to make up one's mind about it.

On the one hand we don't have to buy several full price releases just to get the new characters and stages as now they come as DLC which is way cheaper, you also don't need to buy any of the DLC to keep playing with other people (at least for the fighting games I play maps and such that might divide the community are free)

Not only that but having the roster increase is generally nice for those of us that like our more niche characters that wouldn't get into the roster unless games released with 30 character rosters.

On the other it does feel like milking your consumers.

This leads me to specific games. When I tried strive each character felt very bare bones yet I see their DLC os asking for 7€ per character.... though the game is priced at 40€

However when I compare individual DLC characters to something like SoulCalibur 6 where the DLC characters are cheaper 5-6€ and include massive move lists and special gimmicks it does feel like it's not worth buying.

Though compared to re-releasing the same game over and over again just to add 2 characters is much cheaper.

So it is a weird one when it comes to fighting games as it is cheaper than before but it still fits in the current year DLC practices but at the same time it's nowhere near as predatory as before....

I also don't know what would be a better solution for fighting games, would having to buy a new game every year really be better than DLCs ? Where I can just buy the 1 character I want ? No idea how they could fix it.

Though I guess I'll keep an eye on initial roster size. Strive specifically felt really bad for the limited character moves, smallish roster and removal of a lot of mechanics to appeal to a wider audience so I'd never pay for more characters in that one

I've been having a few runs of Rogue Trader and Wrath of the Righteous, with some Star Citizen on the side. Also decided to hop back on colony survival to see how it has changed since I last played it.

I hate places that hide their cameras or make them incredibly hard to spot.

I get having a hidden one opposite a visible one so that you can catch some one trying to hide from the visible cameras but when all of them are hidden how is a person suppose to know where they are being recorded.

Then again self defense is illegal in my country so guess I'll have to tip the manager to delete the tapes and burry the criminal out back

Don't know enough about the area so I'll take your word for it.

I'm just going to enjoy my popcorn before shit kicks up again as this shit is starting to become as farfetched as a soap opera.
