It’s the social media equivalent of supporting a bunch of Mom and Pop shops (or opening your own!) vs some hyper-sanitized, corporate monstrosity like Wal-Mart.

The danger of a measles outbreak is especially scary if you have a baby, because they can’t even get this vaccination until 12 months old. Similar if you’re immunocompromised, I’m sure.

This is why herd immunity is so important.

Part of it seems to stem from people’s excitement to infodump about how federated social media works.

That’s relevant and interesting to learn about, but the average person just needs to hear “make and account here and start browsing memes” first.

People were predicting this a while back as a way that reddit would make themselves more “advertiser-friendly”.

I also wonder if there were some legal concerns in those states that now require porn sites to check IDs.

I think you’re absolutely right. When these studios go public and start having pressure from shareholders, it starts the gradual decline in quality.

Goodwill with your playerbase doesn’t show up on a quarterly report, but without it your company is sunk.

It’s incredible that a company with the resources of Ubisoft couldn’t figure that out, even with people shouting it at them daily.

This makes me feel like there will be a large group of retro gamers who will prefer the artisan, human-made games of the past, but ultimately a younger gen audience that won’t know the difference or care.

It’s amazing how whatever is going on in politics, the gun industry always seems to win.

Lactose tolerant?

It’s what connects us all.

That’s like being mad at the bus because your chosen destination for the day sucked.

Just awful and tragic. All those families =(

Which would actually save money!

It’s almost like a healthcare system that creates an arms race between health insurance companies denying care vs healthcare providers overcharging leaves us paying huge amounts of $$ while not receiving adequate coverage.

Yeah, they’re kind of right that “unnecessary care” happens, but they’re conveniently ignoring that they are a large contributor to the problem. Without insurance companies leaving hospitals and patients on the hook for thousands at a time, you might not see $20 bandaids, $2000 ambulance rides, and expensive tests that didn’t really need to be done.

Haha, I did. I still posted a few, but I was out of town with family for days and was barely on my phone.

XCOM: War of the Chosen

Overwatch (gave up on blizzard a couple of years ago though)

Is he just picking people he sees on TV?
