good, maybe they'll oust the dickhead in charge and build their own U.S.

With blackjack and hookers

...what were we talking about again?

good example: 7 days to die only recently came out of alpha into beta after almost a decade, and it's still more fun than most of the modern AAA dreck looks to me...

No, i'm not joking. this game has been in development that long. currently $45, but for a minecraft game in a post-apocalyptic setting with actual voxel phsyics and more realistic graphics than its inspiration, versus some prechewed garbage at 70 bones, i can't complain.

blonde and blue eyed probably don't help, but a classic american muscle car?

That's fair i suppose, though I think they handled them well enough.

It came off to me more like he could see, but only very poorly, and he slowly learned to compensate over the thirty years of wandering. it's also implied he was "divinely protected" thoughout most of the film.

there probably were other bibles, but the one he found was the only one anyone in the film knew about. it's not really surprising that there would have been such a reaction after such a cataclysm, though. people already want to blame the bible for every war in history.

not trying to fight by the way, just enjoying the back and forth.

🤣 I'm guessing one of them is gary oldman (yes, that's his real name), who played the main villian. man tends to play over the top characters like that (see also the sixth sense)

Reading the linked article, i can't decide if this is friendly fire or a psyop.

The boycott was stupid, but he was calling out the rotherham police for trying to shift the blame by denying they ignored claims of abuse for fear of being called racist.

spent a good chunk of my childhood in Buchanan County, and hell, Winthrop had fiber optic internet in the early 00s, and that was a town of <1000.

we had five local stations in the 90s, KGAN(CBS) on 2, KWWL (NBC) on 7, KCRG(ABC) on 9, IPTV(PBS) on 12/13(I think?!?), and I forget the fox affiliate on 28 (later it was KFXA on 40).

...having also grown up in rural iowa, the sarcasm is more than appropriate...

PBS was one of five channels when i was a kid, and that was in the eighties/nineties when the internet was still mostly dial up BBS systems...

even then, newspapers, radio, and word-of-mouth were still a thing.

these idiots really think farmers are inbred hicks who see cellphones as evil witchcraft or something...

addendum almost forgot. in the early 2000s, the town i lived in as a kid, then occupied by my grandmother, was right in the path AT&T was building a large fiber optic network through, so my grandmother had highspeed internet when most towns were lucky to get dial-up, making this whole concept painfully stupid...

good point, they forgot the engineer's motto KISS or Keep It Simple Stupid.

yeah, but you also have to factor in when an ip has been over exposed... FFVII was kind of a runaway success when it came out, and squeenix has exploited the ever-loving fuck out of it.

Not to mention i've a feeling final fantasy may be on life support as it is. maybe i'm wrong, but I dunno how long they can keep recycling the formula before it becomes stale, lol.

stellar blade is an original IP with broad appeal (even if it may or may not be derivative in some ways. I dont know, i'm just cutting off the argument, because let's face it, everything is derivative in one way or another)

FFVII Rebirth on the other hand is a remake of a particular sequel in an existing IP that was milked to death even when it was still a relevant/semi-relevant game. it's been chewed up and spit out so many times, it's lost its flavor.

What scares me is the possibility she used the soyjack intentionally, whether as a reference, or just copypastaed it in her design without understanding the meaning

kinda reminds me of that documentary that basically said we would all starve if farmers had to pay americans minimum wage to do the jobs that illegals were doing at half or less of minimum wage.

meanwhile these are the same people demanding the minimum wage be raised to fifteen/twenty dollars (depending on the specific advocate) nationwide.

yeah, but this is a comic book movie. fast and loose is the rule rather than the exception.

rare genetic defect will be my guess..

and they'll play the sympathy card like "see! see! this is what backs go through in america!"

oh, wait, that would be mildly clever, nevermind.

it's extremely rare, but yeah, fraternal twins can merge in the womb, leading to a baby that, in the most rare cases, has both male and female genetic markers, depending on what body part you test on.

No, but you can embezzle 1m from 100 1m dollar projects, lol. And it's harder to track that way

not gonna lie, I thought the top one was Lucy from elfen lied (the white thing behind her head on her left kinda looks like a Diclonius horn). Certainly the character has a similar cold expression.
