Bethesda promised Skyrim in space and that’s what we got, a game exactly like the one they released 12 years ago but in space. They should have just called it Skyrim: Space Edition.
They literally live off hype then going quiet long enough for people to forget the disappointment. The older people remember and don’t expect much, the middle aged people remember but are hopeful they’ll be better (and that the older people are just jaded), and the younger people just fall for the hype.
This is it, this is all Bethesda is now. Constantly recycling suckers through long dev cycles and hype.
I wonder how much money was wasted on that Imagine Dragons song, that literally no one cares about now, that should have just been put into development.
I mean technically they are copied infinitely due to proc gen. I just don’t get why they didn’t proc gen the POIs as well, would have at least made them more varied.
For those who have pre-ordered it is already here, the rest have to wait a little longer. Starfield is finally here! Have you bought it, why or why not? If you’ve already played it, what do you think of it? We are very curious!...
In July, Lockheed Martin completed the build of NASA’s X-59 test aircraft, which is designed to turn sonic booms into mere thumps, in the hope of making overland supersonic flight a possibility. Ground tests and a first test flight are planned for later in the year. NASA aims to have enough data to hand over to US regulators...
You said they got 3 billion as if they got 3 billion dollars. In reality Netflix paid for the rights to distribute a show and paid for the infrasture to stream 3 billion minutes of it in hopes that people keep renewing their subscription. It definitely made them a lot of money, but not 3 billion.
Wait writers normally get royalties for their work? What the fuck that’s amazing, so Netflix is just in violation of a contract then? Why doesn’t the WGA just sue them?
Well duh, the lower your incomr is compared to others the less of life’s pleasures their able to afford. If everyone else starts doing better then costs increase as demand rises and now I can’t afford shit.
Making threats with intent to carry them out and ability to do so is not protected speech. The tricky part is proving intent to actually carry out the threat like having written plans.
I’m really sorry your feeling that way, no one deserves to feel like the best decision is death. I’ve been there and I wouldn’t wish that feeling on anyone. I know you don’t want to hear anyone tell you “Oh just stick it out life gets better!” because if you’re like I was that’s just a fantasy that never comes. But if you’ll take any advice I’d suggest finding something you love to do and just making that your life’s work, don’t worry about anything else. That’s what I did, gave up on everything else and just focused on that for a few years, eventually things ended up turning out alright for me.
Really? I made a sarcastic comment and then when I realized another human being going through a serious struggle I’ve gone through before I try to show compassion. This is why I said you need to stop caring about all this crap that makes life no
Ya know what fuck it whatever be miserable if you want to.
A base based on 2^x makes the most sense since it’s easy to do conversions between bases that match that template. So base 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc. The limit would just be how many symbols can be easily remembered and instantly recognizable (need 32 symbols for base 32).

There’s decent customization for the quick settings tiles, what are you looking to do? Also never had changing the launcher fuck up gesture navigation. I use NeoLauncher without any issues at least.
Lmfao, I’m pretty sure the idea is that it will return them more money than it costs. You just want free subway rides or something? It’s fucking $2.75 to go ANYWHERE.
Nah definitely not. If you’re that desperate where are you even going on the subway? I’ve literally seen homeless people pay the fare. The only time I’d consider it justifiable is if you’re in a rush, the train is right their, and your payment isn’t working. Otherwise like what, where you gonna go and what you gonna do if you can’t even afford $2.75?
I hope that’s cause you moved out of NYC 15 uears ago. Otherwise fuck you, this is why we can’t have nice things. Why do some people only accept paying for things if we force it out of their paycheck instead of just when they use it?
TL;DR: My father in law (FIL) passed away recently. I visited him a few days before he died and he confessed to knowing where some bodies are buried and wanted me to help make it right....
You would have been much better off if you just leaked the information on 4chan through tor, and never posted anything anywhere that could have been linked back to you.
Yep, going after accusers should be something that only happens in extreme cases, like the accused being able to prove they weren’t even in the same State at the time or in some other way being impossible for them to have committed the act.
