I know it’s a meme to talk about my boy rock Lee, but literally one of the most hype fight scene powerups of all time, and one of the most compelling characters of no natural talent/bloodline just effort and heart, and they sidelined him hard!

Rock Lee for hokage 2024!

as a Texan let me just say, welcome to the fucking show Colorado.

lol

I don’t really know much about the sweat baby controversy, but whenever I see “bless your heart” it just comes of as weak tea as it avoids engaging with premises or arguments and condescends and I think it generally loses the argument from a third party perspective. At least I’ve never read it and thought, wow they really got them.

It might be trite but I always preferred agree to disagree as a disengage tactic. That’s just my two cents on internet discourse though.

Microsoft has made their os so annoying and I loath when their updates revert settings that took me an hour to find in the first place. Or worse, remove the settings and features I liked to shove some more bs ads and data harvesting down my throat.

So yeah, I’m planning on downloading Linux mint to a flash drive and giving it a try on one of my laptops this month.

I really liked a lot about the minish cap but the gacha game heart piece and the fact that you leave one of the three goddesses unhoused felt very antethitical to Zelda. Almost perfect otherwise.

OP always falls for ‘it’

I read 1984. It just took us a little longer to get there.

continue being annoyed by the level of corruption and incompetence of the US ruling class while existing in a visibly collapsing empire.

The Harry potter world is so dystopian and broken. And after years of being fucked by them Harry just want to become a cop. 🙄

There is definitely a benifit, it just doesn’t necessarily have to be for the bottom line. If you are running a major publisher you are likely spending public shareholders money or executive partners money (with some skin in the game yourself) on these games.

At the very least based on the consistency some publishers use Drm we know getting Drm buys piece of mind/job security that whoever is managing the project is doing something to prevent shrink/theft.

It’s like the ad line goes, nobody ever gets fired for buying an IBM.

There is safety in doing the best practice or industry standard.

That all said, it’s entirely possible there is hard data out there that strongly suggests there is a cost benifit too it, and it’s just not public data.
