I mean one studio makes a great game and a bunch of other studios make shitty games... then gamers like the game which is better and want more games to be like that. Traditionally that's called market forces, not a weapon.

You only have to watch him interacting with his staff in a few videos and you can see that the bullying comes right from the top. That's not something that's going to change easily.

They did say he's "the Kmart version of Elon Musk" which I thought was quite funny.

Grimes would have recorded at a studio in the US along with the other English language voice actors.

Maybe not the impeachment but if any of the accusations are based on reports to police (or the FBI) then "making a false report" to police is a crime and that could be prosecuted.

I've noticed Linus be visibly mean to his employees on camera multiple times and I don't even watch that much. I figure if that's what he's willing to do on camera it's probably a lot worse off camera.

Sure. But most Americans don't seem to regard Trump as the worst president ever which boggles my mind. This guy was openly trying to overthrow democracy in America and was engaging in organised criminal activities, and you think there were worse presidents? I mean he was literally trying to overthrow your entire constitution and system of government. Can it get worse than that?

She really was in a sticky situation.

I expect to hear in a few years that Carlson has been on the payroll of the Russians for years.

A few years ago I tried to register a domain name which included the word "purple". I was told I couldn't because HP had trademarked the word "purple" so it was off the list of registerable words. I pointed out that my domain was in no way related to their purple laptops and I was told tough, no-one could for any reason register any domain which included the word "purple" because HP now owned the dictionary word "purple".

I'm still annoyed about it to this day.

NIxon is often quoted. But maybe you're right and Americans really do regard him as the worst ever.

That depends on the country you live in. In Australia for instance anything that looks like a "sale" must be an actual sale of a product and can't be something else sneakily disguised as a sale. It's illegal for services like Steam or app stores to deny you access to software you've bought on their platform in Australia.

That doesn't mean it hasn't happened before though.

Godot supports C# as well as its native python-like GDscript.

They developed their own vaccine but it was a bit of a dud.

But still... you're burning hydrocarbons so you end up producing a lot of CO2 which is going straight into the atmosphere. That's not what I'd call super green.

But the IEA is a lobby group. It's not like their numbers have any credibility. Like I said, nuclear is way more expensive by all numbers except fake ones.

Big investors into his company got burned too.

But now you have to charge two things rather than one. Some people would prefer not to have to do that.

That page shows nuclear being way more expensive than photovoltaic solar with batteries, more expensive than wind power and more expensive than coal. So it exactly backs up my point.

Samsung and Google support their current generation phones for five years. Apple supports theirs for seven years from when they're last sold.

cheap

It's literally the most expensive power of any of the major options.
