At least this makes more sense than the American notation.

When we realized we could watch porn on them.

Honestly? ET scared little me more than it probably should have! That little bastard could pop up anywhere and looked even creepier when he was sick.

Hate that guy.

Whelp! There goes democracy!

Me neither but when I do he’s sort of hybridized with that guy from Smash Mouth.

Depends on the country and the type of lootboxes. In the Netherlands for example lootboxes with items that cannot be purchased or traded otherwise are legal. Lootboxes with items that may have monetary value are considered a form of slot machine gambling.

From Screenrant.com:

*Netherlands' Laws About Loot Boxes

Overwatch Loot Box In April of 2018, the Netherlands Gaming Authority conducted a study of 10 unnamed games, and concluded that four of the games were in violation of Netherlands laws concerning gambling. To be exact, the study said (via PC Gamer), "that the content of these loot boxes is determined by chance and that the prizes to be won can be traded outside of the game: the prizes have a market value." In order to sell such items in the Netherlands a license is required but given the current laws, no license can be given to game companies, so "these loot boxes (were) prohibited." The loot boxes used in the other games were deemed legal because they lack "market value." According to the study, those loot boxes whose prizes wouldn't be traded constituted a low risk for gambling addiction, being akin to "small-scale bingo." The marketable loot boxes though, those which are banned in the country, "have integral elements that are similar to slot machines."*

Thanks for providing them with free publicity!

Which is shameful and disgusting but should not have any influence about how this case is handled.

Innocent until proven guilty and all that.

Exactly this. Every non-shit mobile game I ever found turned out to be a port from either PC or console.

Me too, but I fear I wouldn’t like the answers.

Same thing in the Netherlands. You can have someone vote for you in your stead.

Who woulda thunk it!?

Starship Troopers is peak sci-fi in that it holds up a mirror for society to see the ugly bits.

This happens in my house! I’ve been afraid to tell my wife about this in case it’ll freak her out or something.

Beating up someone because they decided the middle of the aisle of my local supermarket was a great place to park their trolley to talk to some other bastard about bullshit nobody cares about while I’m trying to get my shopping over with as fast as possible.

Good thing I get most of my groceries delivered theses days.

The one from Shrek fame yes.

The fact that there was a ‘bird flu season’ in the first place is absolutely insane of course. I’m glad it’s now abolished so we can have bird flu the whole year ‘round!

That! Or a proper sequel to 2142.

The best games are ports to be honest. I recently downloaded Peglin, which is supposedly a pc port. It has a free trial and no IAPs and is an entertaining little timekiller.

Same thing.

To be honest, I don’t even remember paying anything but for some reason everything is accessible.

I loved the replaceable batteries on my Xbox 360 controllers. Just having a batch of rechargeable batteries ready to go meant near endless gaming.

Now a second controller is nearly mandatory and they’re damn expensive.

*South Korea has entered the chat

Most who have lived it are dead.

I liked it. I liked it a lot. Titan mode was epic.

It’s not the leaving trolleys on people’s ways that drives me insane. It’s two people chatting about bullshit in the aisle of the supermarket while blocking the path that has me seeing red.

It seems you’re right.

Spielberg was apparently planning a horror film called Night Skies that didn’t get made but material was supposedly reused for ET.

Pretty stressful if you’re a dinosaur

Mouse is a lovely name for a cat.
