Definitely worst president of modern times for sure.

Worst of America, probably. Not worst out of all in modern times though

I think it's debatable for different reasons. He's got the clown factor going pretty strong though, and he's completely delegitimized the US and destroyed decades of compromises and agreements; though to be fair, global opinion had already been plummeting for a while- but Trump has certainly enshrined the name on the tombstone.

Well, I mean that I just happen to know president worse than Trump in every single way. No matter what bad things Trump done, he can't top current president of Ukraine.

Worst death rate in the world, Britain number one!!!!

At least you have a vaccine.

Do you think Zelensky will sign up for Sputnik V in UA?

I hope not, but I'll never find out really because there is no guarantee that they don't buy it and sell it to us under name of different vaccine. Yeah, but right now they are planning to buy a chinese vaccine that cost 6 times more than one from Oxford and has only 50% effectiveness and buy it not directly but through some company.

One person shot apparently.
So far. Wew

She died

Feels like gambling.

Investing is essentially gambling, with an exception. You can make educated moves and deductions, giving you slightly higher odds than if you were to go to casino.

Well, depending on the game you can do educated guesses in gambling as well that will increase your winrate on average, so that isn't much different.

Feels like gambling.

Ok, Elon.

Happy holidays

I figred that it wasn't an important call. I don't think that it was a spam call, because the spam calls I get don't repeat each other, plus number itself has a pattern that makes it easy to remember for humans. So what's left is to figure that whether someone who called was important or not. So I went through and thought about it, and it couldn't be from military because it was too late of a call, I think if it would be them then they would call earlier in the day, between 9 A.M and 1 P.M. It wasn't from a job hunting because it was Saturday and it's was also a saint Nicolas day. My former classmates from uni would try to contact me on social media first and then call, but I saw no message from them there. There is one relative that sits in jail right now and he sometimes likes to call my mom, but even if that's the call from him, I wouldn't want to respond it anyway. If it was from staff from uni which I already finished, they would try to contact me through my classmates. If someone wanted to just greet me with saint Nicolas day, then it's not important, even if they got present for me. If someone wanted to invite me to party, I would refuse anyway. If it was a prank call from my classmates from school, then fuck them.

Like imagine looking at your phone at 3 A.M and finding two missed calls from same unfamilliar number at 3 and 4 P.M respectively. Also consider that only people who call to you are parents.

It's funny. Many of the E posts I've read I've thought to myself, "This sounds like Sandtrap."

You could notice it earlier when E said that he uses Garry Mod for art.

No, I mean I've been thinking this for months.

Yeah, me too.

not that i followed it too closely at the time, but i seem to recall a similar furor over the amount of bugs with New Vegas on release, and now that game is considered one of the best in the series, if not one of the best games ever

Yeah, it'll be like No Man's Sky all over again. As long as they fix shit, it should be fine, so bugs and crashes aren't my main concern. My main concern would be more whether this game delivers gameplay wise and story wise, but from what I've seen, it's nothing special, just another videogame I won't care about and then, if I lucky, may rediscover after 5-10 years when it gets on 90% sale and I have better hardware.

So game crashed twice on me, also had a glitch where I could not advance the story because of some militech NPC blocking an access point. Enemies will sometimes spaz out on the floor without even bothering to shoot you.

The fuck was the point in all these delays then? Absolute joke.

This is f i n e, no matter how much would they spend time coding game, they'll never catch all bugs. It's more important now for them to listen to the feedback and patch all things quickly. I think it would be better for them to release their game earlier as an early access and receive feedback back then and I don't know what prevented them from doing so.

Just to ensure you that everything is f i n e here is video from Witcher 3 with flying horse

Why is the bar so low now that the default position is to just expect AAA games to be fixed incrementally post release? Why is it so outlandish to actually want a game to work properly on day 1? Trust me this isn't fine. I'm sick of people just brushing this off because it's CDPR. If this was an EA title reddit would be in resonance frequency.

I didn't pay 55 quid for a game that needs 25 gig patches every few weeks. I'm not asking there to be absolutely zero bugs. I just want a playable game that I paid for on the day.

Well, I think main argument would be that nowadays games have grown in scale, with more technology involved and it's just nigh impossible to find all bugs before launch, but the problem is that there are games that were done without notable bugs and they worked perfectly fine on launch before. Also in case of Cyberpunk, CD Project Red took a lot of time to develop it and showcase it, and when I look at Cyberpunk I remind myself about Prey 2 and it took their developers only 3 years to get to the showcase stage and even show off some gameplay.

I think another reason why nobody expects games to be bug-free day 1 is just because in recent years no major AAA company really deliver bugless game on launch, I can't really name one.
