I mean, it does look like a sensible option. BRICS countries are growing in number and their combined wealth is nothing to sneeze at.
Turkey was never really allowed to be a part of EU and therefore will join the cool new club while the rest of Europe grows in far right rhetoric, and generally anti islamic sentiment.
So what am I remembering then? Was that fallout76?
They had a new game coming up and said they’ll be using their engine and there was a huge backlash, and they then responded that they’ll be working on a new one.
I could’ve sworn my worst enemy’s right arm that that’s how it happened… Internet’s slow right now on the train but I’m keen to do some sleuthing on this now
They need a Cyberpunk 2077/ No man’s sky level overhaul and that simply won’t happen.
In Cyberpunk’s case, CDPR within months of the terrible launch, had a clear vision of what they want to fix and how they want their game to feel in 2.0. They gave us a roadmap and plenty of updates and they delivered on what they promised with an incredible 2.0 release and DLC, that honestly propelled the game into my top 10 of all time.
No man’s sky basically released a new game in the decrepit shell of their initial release. Multiple decent DLC’s later and it’s one of the best success stories in gaming history.
With their Elden Ring title on the horizon, there’s no way Bethesda is going to devote so many resources to fix a broken game. They also promised that Starfield will run in a new engine following backlash when they said it’ll run on the same one. There’s very little confidence now in Bethesda that their next game won’t be a buggy mess. Fallout 4 sucked until mods fixed the game. Starfield sucks to this day and their next title probably already has significant development done to it that they likely can’t scrap lol.
If they honestly thought this patch would bring people back, then they’re as deluded as the diablo 4 devs are
Holy. Shit.
I’ve no words!
Apparently they review the second screen via the camera. Any attempts to hide/block/hack/break the second screen would result in a breach of contract, which results in a charge for the full price of the TV and extra on top for damages/breach of terms etc.
You’re made to sign a few documents before you receive your TV. I suspect they’ve covered all angles
There’s a company which will give you a >40in LCD smart TV to keep, for as long as you want it, with the catch that the second screen that comes with the TV (it’s a screen that is a couple of inches tall and spans the width of the device) is on at all times and only plays ads.
There’s also a camera that actively films you and records your audio, video. It’s also on all the time.
The company makes it clear that they’re giving you a free, very well specced TV with all the amenities, and in return they’ll collect your data. It’s surprising how many people (who otherwise can’t afford a TV) said yes.
UK’s David Cameron: “to suggest there’s genocidal intent? I do believe that’s wrong”
They’ll bend over backwards to support Israel, and people are asking what Israel has over the UK to make it so. At some point, answers will have to be given.
I’m sure you’re aware after all the press it’s had recently, but the game was insanely fun following the 2.0 patch. So much so, in fact, that I had to force myself to reluctantly uninstall the game after I finally beat it (after delaying the main story for so long), just so I could move on to the other great games on my list.
With the incredibly high bar they’ve set themselves, the sequel is sure to impress. I still wouldn’t advise anyone to preorder it though, just in case!
Are you implying everyone there is future hamas?
No, and yes. If Hamas means resistance then sure. I don’t see any Palestinians condemning Hamas because Hamas are literally brothers and sons and relatives of the survivors who have been born into oppression and have no option but to rebel or die.
Let’s say you have a child, completely innocent, born into this world. Within a few years, he has survived multiple wars, seen violence and death dozens of times, and is already desensitised to mutilation and death by the time he’s 7 years old. His family is dead, he’s surviving on the good graces of strangers with no prospects for education and no moral compass in the form of parents to guide him on what’s right and wrong.
By the time he’s 17, he’s being recruited into Hamas, who under a 70 year occupation, comprises people just like him, that want a free Palestine where children can be children and oppression isn’t the norm. You’re not going to reform him without removing his raison d’etre. Until there’s Israeli oppression and no free Palestine, he’s Hamas.
Do I agree with what Hamas did on October 7th? No. But in all forms of media and in history, people who are oppressed and free themselves from imprisonment and oppression are seen as heroes (if they’re imprisoned unjustly, of course!), regardless of the number of people they kill in order to achieve their goals (like blowing up a Death Star, killing everyone on it).
The Star Wars’ rebel alliance is an example. So is Katniss in Hunger Games or the Na’Vi in the Avatar movies. In my mind there’s little difference between them. We don’t condemn them as terrorists so why is Hamas different?
Look I get it, and you’re probably right, but this world doesn’t work in that way.
The US just side-stepped Congress to approve an arms shipment to Israel for the second time this month. Missiles and bombs aren’t the answer, but we have to remain consistent.
And what will summoning Netenyahu achieve? He’ll go to prison laughing (assuming the US ever let it get that far!), knowing his successor will reap the rewards of an uninhabitable Gaza full of a resentful, broken population fated to become the next Hamas for us to condemn in a few years’ time. Israel will win land and space for more illegal settlements that’ll go unchallenged because the US will continue to veto any action against them.
I don’t agree military action is the answer but in the middle of a war where one side is being heavily supported, it makes little sense why the other side wouldn’t seek some extra power as well.
The casualties suggest Hamas is collateral damage. The target, as has been made abundantly clear at this point, is the civilian population of Gaza.
You have to renew your driver’s license every 10 years. That means in the worst case scenario, the image they’re using of you could be 10 years out of date.
Those images are also not detailed enough to be used for facial recognition. Sure, it could help narrow down the list of suspected people, but they’re crazy if they think they’d be able to pinpoint someone based on what they looked like 5-10 years prior.
I suspect these powers are being used for something else more sinister. Immigration, for example, to clamp down on people who have licenses and are delivery drivers, or taxi drivers for example.
You’ve had the opportunity to play almost half of all the games you’ve bought this year, with Christmas round the corner to add to that tally.
That’s a pretty good record, all things considered!
If someone uses your name to justify cruelty, no matter how insignificant the person may be, it’s always worth speaking up.
People could also take the Museum’s silence on the matter as affirmation.
He is directly and personally benefitting from the Israeli genocide of innocent Palestinians in Gaza. The huge contracts awarded to BP benefit his wife’s firm directly, so he is allowing it to happen. He can’t say the world is no utopia if he’s directly responsible for the bombing, the daft prick.
The people destabilised there after Israel has bombed the everliving hell out of it, will probably look to move somewhere where there’s no war and their children (what’s left of them anyway) can at least grow to adulthood without being blown up.
It’s human nature, to migrate from a disaster. In every single depiction of apocalypses and disasters in the media, people instinctively run for the border, taking all their belongings. Why not them? There are no wars in Europe. It makes total sense. I’d do the same every single time. If I’ve lost everything I own, it makes sense I have no money or documents to enter those countries legally. I’d have to seek asylum. It makes sense.
Just remember, Trump is watching this and taking notes.
He’s really not.
Haha I was like “that Dave2D? Something’s definitely not adding up!”
Just look at her.
He’s getting no rest at all.

Can you imagine your own mind having unskippable ads?

Neuralink is going to be hell, purely because the person in charge of it is Elon Musk.
