The Flood / How do I sell my fucking car?« on: September 08, 2017, 06:49:57 PM »
I'm selling my cars before I go to Japan and nobody has responded except for typical spam calls. What the fuck? It's a great car (2014 Mazda 3), reasonably priced, etc. I got an appraisal at Carmax which was $1,500 the lowest price I'd take, so I'm really only interested in private sales.
Anyone sold a car before? What the fuck am I doing wrong? 243

I disagree with the speed at which you believe it's acceptable to complete Dark Souls.

Those two were literally flying around shooting laser beams out of a giant samurai and fox thing. Remember when the show was mostly about ninjas with knives and martial arts and a bit of goofy magic? Yeah, I'm sure it's the culmination of hundreds of episodes of development. I did like that after all that they basically recreated their original fight in that valley without all the magic stuff. 248

Gonna have to wait to pick this up after deployment, but the changes sound good so far. Any word whether we can carry over characters from console to PC?

Gaming / Re: When are microtransactions going to die off?« on: September 04, 2017, 11:27:14 AM »
Not until gamers are willing to pay more as games become more technically complex and expensive, or at least increase with inflation. $60 ten years ago would be worth about $72 now, for example. The fact is that many big games these days are worth more than they're sold for, and subsequently have to be cut up and released as fragmented DLC with season passes and microtransactions picking up the slack.

So what is the difference between asking police officers to speak against legal practices that you or they might find unsavory, and asking a corporate pawn to do the same? 252

Srs response:
Can you explain the difference between publicly disagreeing with a company's policies, as seen in the recent Google Memo thread, and speaking out against fellow cops? 253
The Flood / Re: Female-centric Lord of the Flies movie planned« on: August 30, 2017, 07:03:00 PM »
Lord of the Flies was originally a satirization of the common depiction of young boys in popular stories and the treatment of boys in British culture. If the movie continues to address relevant themes about depictions and treatment of women -- without being too on the nose, a la Ghostbusters -- it could be really interesting. But I doubt that'll be the case.

Gaming / Re: EDGE'S top 100 games list (2017 edition)« on: August 30, 2017, 12:07:40 PM »
Tbh I'm not a fan of ranking games. Maybe by genre in specific years...there's just so many qualities to compare that makes it dumb. Like if I argued that BotW shouldn't be anywhere near #1 because its story, dungeons, and degradation mechanic were failures, how would I rate Tetris, which has exactly one mechanic, no story, etc.?
All I'd say is that from what I've played, all of these are fun and widely-appealing games. 256

This is probably just a rewrite of previous fake leaks that were based on legit S7 leaks that didn't include details about characters like Theon and Jaime. Shit like a dead Dany hanging from a wall in King's Landing, Brienne dying before validating Jaime's manliness, Varys being Azor Ahai...It's chock full of dumb shit. 258
The Flood / Re: Games of Thrones Season 7 finale tonight« on: August 29, 2017, 11:06:46 AM »At least it was better than last episode.What exactly is so dangerous about the army of the undead? A hand full of exhausted men managed to hold off thousands of them so an army of thousands should be able to hold off the entire White Walker army without a problem. They don't even have to worry about their comrades turning into wights since they have to be touched by a White Walker in order to join their army. I wouldn't be surprised if they retcon that by showing that WW's just have to be present or nearby to raise wights. 259
The Flood / Re: Games of Thrones Season 7 finale tonight« on: August 28, 2017, 05:57:22 PM »
The fact that zombies can walk and swing weapons without any muscle tissue should clue you into the notion that wights are powered by handwavium magic. 260
The Flood / Re: Games of Thrones Season 7 finale tonight« on: August 28, 2017, 03:06:53 PM »Are they really that normie catering that they had to have a braindead exposition scene about Jon's parentage? People are comparing him to google. He has access to all information, but has to actually look for it -- which still doesn't make sense given that he saw the tower of joy scene last season, and should've known about Jon lineage at the time. But really, I wouldn't expect non-book readers to even know who Rhaegar Targaryan or Lyanna Stark are, and they needed the exposition and lead-up. 261

Warpable bonfires are almost all covenant locations or boss rooms. They may also show up in the list even if you're at that specific bonfire, which is one way to check.

Single-player only is an option, but then it affects achievements. As far as multiplayer goes, they'd have to have a matchmaking system that only pairs KBM players together, which would blow.

He wasn't fired for criticizing the company; he was fired for publicly undermining the management of the company. That difference may be nuanced to you, but it's obvious to anyone that's worked in a hierarchical workplace, which is why it's difficult to explain. It's not about suppression of conflicting ideas or what you probably see as "thoughtcrime".
The principle of "praise in public, punish in private" applies up and down the ladder. 270

I've seen multiple psychologists explain that his points on gender differences were based on legitimate studies.If the memo he wrote detailed an opinion that was more agreeable with the people that complained and those who decided to fire him, then I suspect that he wouldn't have been fired at all. Like many amateurs, he seems to have interpreted results from scientific papers to suit his opinions. But you're missing the point that it's universally frowned upon to disagree with management in a public forum like he did -- what he said doesn't matter at all. https://www.google.com/search?q=google+memo+debunked&rlz=1C1CHZL_enUS749US749&oq=google+memo+debunked&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64.5641j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 |
