Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone

You’re also not taking into account subscription price hikes, policies dictating what you can and can’t do with the software, media availability without internet, surveillance and data selling.

Netflix has doubled their fees in the last ten years while hemorrhaging beloved content to other streaming services.

Netflix and others dictate that you’re not allowed to siphon the shows and movies to watch later, at a time and place that may be inconvenient for the service (such as removing it).

Go anywhere without internet and suddenly all of your paid options don’t exist. That may be resolved one day by unlimited internet everywhere, but that leads into…

These streaming services will know where you are and what you’re doing all the time. Surveillance in general has only gotten worse, and watchdogs may be vigilant but it’s not blunting how much privacy is being stripped away from you on a regular basis.

The price you’re paying isn’t just dollars and it’s not locked in forever.

I never mentioned age. I mentioned games that are played for thousands of hours. Meaning that the value of those games far exceeds the value of the subscription. Furthermore, then the subscription ends (including when pulling games that are too old) and you are left without the game you have been sinking an incredible amount of time into just because some suits determined that not enough people play X game to warrant providing server space.

Yes. I am explaining that the opposite value of that statement doesn’t go far enough.

To be fair nobody plays just one single game for 3 years.

Where’s the confusion?

Skyrim, Fallout 4, RDR2, Witcher 3, The Sims, Dark Souls, Civilization, Borderlands 1/2, Stardew Valley, Persona…

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean there aren’t people that come back again and again between games to dust off an old favorite. While I personally never touched Fallout 4 again after beating it, I’ll break out my XBox 360 and give New Vegas a whirl to see what character concept I’ll try this time.

I will. It was fascinating reading the article and seeing all the comments from people desperate for a big nothing burger and some french cries.

It definitely wasn’t. They were doing this after hours.

It did not make it to the customers.

“A group of Australian KFC workers have been condemned for their after-hours antics which were shared online and labelled “disgusting” by furious social media users.”

That food gets thrown out anyway. If they want to clown about it as a former QSR Manager I wouldn’t care in the slightest as long as they clean it all up.

“able to do anything”

I’m all set up right there, thanks.

Even more importantly: God is omnipotent, which means they don’t make mistakes. A simulation doesn’t imply a higher power that is perfect in every way.

Here from Reddit. That’s one seriously broad paintbrush you’re using.

Morningstars don’t even need to be eaten like a hamburger. A little red wine vinegar, a few drops of olive oil, and a light sprinkling of Italian herbs turns that into some gourmet shit.

I’m not surprised they didn’t get any traction.

Nobody would be if it was up on wood blocks.

And people aren’t born evil but they do become it in very insidious ways. And one way is being someone who never stopped to care that their actions and behaviors would put a burden on others.

You literally just said: “People aren’t born evil but they do become it by being someone who was born evil.” If they never stopped to care their whole lives, they started that way.

The commenter is asking you to define “they” because they don’t want you to try to squirm out from under the statistical landslide of facts about just how bad the poor in America have it. About how they don’t have the money and they don’t have the means to get more money when even a college-educated person can’t land a proper full-time paying position to cover the expenses of a family anymore.

But you knew that, which is why you started squirming early.

According to Morality and Ethics 101, a universal moral truth is an ethic.

Great, thanks! Have a fantastic time. Looking forward to seeing you around!

Oh damn, haven’t seen you since the transition! How are you?
