  1. Someone once asked Bruce Lee if he could beat Mohamad Ali. He said, "no". He basically told them that Mohamad was way too big and had way too much reach and he couldn't have beaten him in a match. Bruce Lee wasn't a blowhard, he was realistic. He understood limitations and size advantages. He also understood philosophy and the need to remove pointless tradition from conventional martial arts in order to optimize them. His efforts may have influenced what eventually became mixed martial arts, which is a HUGE competitive sport today. Bruce Lee is a legend, but he was also mortal and he understood and respected that.

  2. That moment he talked about the woman who lost her son to drug addiction and how time never heals it... my older brother died in Dec, heart complications that were a result of drug abuse (fentanyl) which left him dying in a hospital over the course of a few weeks where he could barely talk, couldn't make to the bathroom and I was one of the people there in the room with him when he passed. My mother was devastated, there's no comfort I can offer. That's the reality of this that people tend to ignore and why people are all-in on Trump's position to combat these things, with military arms if necessary.

  3. @A Lounge Moogle His career was already almost destroyed from a pretty severe back injury, which is what led to some of his addictions as he was seeking pain relief.

  4. Aren't most of them paid to protest?

  5.  @nafetsbrusa4803  Okay, so the full and accurate quote is: "Everybody says I must fight Ali some day. I'm studying every move he makes. I'm getting to know how he thinks and moves. Look at my hand, that's a little, Chinese hand. He'd kill me." This indicates that Bruce Lee had the common sense to take size difference into account when it came to fighting. As for sources, this very quote is included in several works about Bruce Lee, including a book by Dan Inosanto. So, I'm not sure what YOU looked up, but there you go.

  6. It's almost like people really like to fight over them or something.

  7. Welcome to the party, three years later. So what's Europe's plan for a peace negotiation? I'll wait. Also, again, it's just posturing. He outright says they need US backing to really make it work, so they're still a necessity. To deny Maslow's hierarchy of needs, is to deny reality and basic human survival priorities.

  12. "It doesn't only effect big companies, but it DOES effect big companies" That's the nail on the head moment right there. People don't care if they're gonna get caught in the crossfire so long as they know those they think have hindered their livelihoods, their station in society and their prospects of a future go down with them.
    23
  13. They're not US citizens, they don't get the same treatment as a US citizen. So when they speak out against the very country allowing them the permission to be here, they're going to get kicked out. You would let someone stay in your home, if they were constantly insulting and sympathizing with people that might do you harm, you'd tell them to leave. People can argue freedom of speech, but that isn't freedom of consequence for what you say, and in this case the consequence is losing your right to be here as a guest.

  14.  @voxdraconia4035  Bruce Lee apparently thought it didn't much matter when you have that much mass and reach to deal with. Ali wasn't soft, he could take a hit, he also didn't tire out and wasn't slow. He was a really good fighter and was also a heavy weight, meaning that he was quite large and strong. It's hard to compete with an all-rounder like that.

  15. Yeah, sounds like a typical Bethesda release.

  16. Yeah, it was actually defended and support as well and yet western institutions think they can make a call one what is "obscene" and what isn't XD

  17. It's a very scary thing to have to consider that Israel might cause an incident over here to implicate Iran in order to push us to get involved. These guys have pulled things like that before, so we have to be very careful about this situation and get it resolved as peacefully as possible.

  18. Software development is all about problem solving and loving to solve problems and see things work. I can understand how Tim feels. If anyone in your engineering department complains about having problems to solve, ask them why they're in their line of work, because that IS the work XD And while bandaid fixes get results, understanding the root cause of something is always a better way to solve something the correct way the first time.

  19. I do think some of the 1 in 36 is due to better detection at certain levels, but that wouldn't account for whole 1 to 4 in 10k to 1 in 36. That's a HUGE increase.

  20.  @llamaczech  And some guys that design weapons/firearms never fight a war, but somehow manage to turn out good designs because they had good ideas. It doesn't matter if Lee never fought in a fight, he obviously knew how to fight and his philosophy was about trimming the fat, doing away with unnecessary tradition and teaching people how to actually fight. He was also willing to train people that weren't of his own ethnicity which was a HUGE deal and why he caught a lot of flak, but also why he garnered a lot of respect. He wasn't just a movie star, he was a cultural bridge and ushered in some new ideas.

  21.  @zebulon3044  I love how people make these comparisons when they clearly don't know anything about the history of the Holocaust or how it came to be. For one, we're dealing with a country that's suffered a horrendous loss and need a scapegoat. We don't need illegal immigrants to be a scapegoat because we're directing all of the blame squarely on the people responsible and that was the current administration. They're not on the way out and the new one we want is coming in, so no-one can shift the blame over to a bunch of people that don't deserve it. We don't blame the illegal immigrants for our illegal immigrant problem, they didn't let themselves in, they didn't make our borders less secure, that was everyone at the top that we decided to vote out. Then you have the whole matter of who's being targeted. Regimes like those in Nazi Germany and the USSR didn't have a problem with illegals because their borders were already secure, instead they were turning their military on the citizens. It started with ushering in new management, killing off or otherwise removing the previous managements and any political rivals, which hasn't happened here. We basically didn't renew the previous administrations contracts, we didn't have them mass executed. Now we're moving on to deportation of people that didn't come here legally or make any effort to obtain citizenship any time afterwards, which means they aren't citizens of this country. Then you have to factor in the reason it was easy to facilitate all of this was because propaganda and control of whatever media you were exposed to was all handled by the state, so they could tell you anything they wanted and you just swallowed it up because you had no better authority. We don't live in an age like that, we have information freely available from all sorts of sources, but we have had people that tried to control it and push only the things they wanted people to see and hear. It was the last guys we had in office and it's part of why we voted them out and replaced them. But yeah, keep comparing us to socialist/communist dictatorships.

  22. They're trying to push their narrative with that, it's been their tactic for a long time. They're used to emotionally manipulating a situation.

  23. I had the same kind of breakdown when I first went to college. I've grown past this though, I've matured and developed and managed to get myself in a better position to steadily work on REALISTIC goals that help my life feel more fulfilling. I'm not surprised by this mindset, because it's natural for a lot of people at the stage in their lives, after high school, no longer children anymore and realizing only then that they're not really sure where they're going or how to get where they want to go. At the same time, I think it hits harder today for younger people because they're fed the entire time they're growing up that you should be overtly ambitious while constantly getting rewarded just for participating. So when real life hits after that and no-one could give a crap about your ambitions and won't validate you for doing your job beyond paying you your wages, it can be a bit of a brutal blow. I can say that, in my personal experience, you do get past this if you keep working at it.

  26. "A CEO would never ask a worker to do this." I had to do this very thing last year, in the same manner. Annually, we also have performance reviews where we list our goals and how much progress we made on them.

  28.  @Thorvald9666  I didn't create this hypothetical match, Bruce Lee was outright asked if he thought he could take Ali. Bruce has a BRAIN so he gave the most likely answer.

  29.  @llamaczech  And there are many people that credit his approach to martial arts being made more efficient as a major stepping stone for modern MMA. Because that's the whole idea, eliminate the fluff and stick to the most effective techniques.

  33.  @LordOfTheFatties  It is odd that someone like Chuck Norris doesn't have anything but good things to say about Bruce Lee. And he's got the record to back up any claims he might've made to Lee's fighting.

  34. FromSoft should just make and release a modkit for Eldin Ring as part of the DLC, then this really would be the gift that keeps on giving.

  35.  @Zabrakjedi  That's his big appeal. He's not of regular people, he just isn't. He's too rich, powerful and influential, he's more like a celebrity at this point. However, he's also notably not a "politician", which is why they were so hellbent on not letting him into office. He's here to throw off their entire game. He's going to let out into the wild all their leverage, pump money back into circulation, fire off a bunch of dead weight and then put policies in place that prevent them from securing their positions indefinitely. All of this is good!

  36. Publishers are the bigger culprits, most of this money goes into marketing and is to make numbers bigger for investors and shareholders. Devs that aren't at some high leadership level are criminally under-paid and clearly the budget isn't going into product.

  37. No and they can't even right now either, that's why they're saying it still requires US backing because they CANNOT afford this. No-one can. They still need the US dollar to float this thing.

  40.  @carltaylor2975  There are tactics to fighting someone outside of your weight-class... and most of them are dirty and cheap, because you need all the advantage you can get. A size difference is a considerable disadvantage and anyone that's actually been in a fight definitely understands that. Bruce sure did.

  46. @joshuabennett3377 Why is Starmer asking for US backing? Why is he saying the effort ONLY succeeds with US backing?

  47. What works with this administration is that it's a collection of very proactive people. Seeing people that want to get work done is a major factor in why they're so popular, they look like they're actually doing their job. On the subject of going after corporate billionaires instead of illegal immigrants, you effective take care of both at the same time. A lot of those high-ups have managed to make so much money for themselves by utilizing cheap, available labor. By removing the illegals, you've forced them to hire withing US standards, which requires certain wages, certain benefits and their rights are protected by the labor board, which is a level of regulation they wouldn't normally have to deal with. Two birds, one stone. As far as the comment on the party that's increasing taxes, the Trump administration is advocating for the extension of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which is set to expire at the end of 2025. This includes maintaining reduced individual and corporate tax rates. Trump has proposed eliminating federal income taxes on tips and overtime pay, aiming to benefit workers in the service and hospitality industries. Trump is seeking to repeal the $10,000 cap on state and local tax deductions, which would primarily benefit residents in high-tax states. So... I don't know what the hell that person was talking about. Trump is doing a LOT of reduce the amount of taxes we're paying out XD

  49. If you can't extend the effort to do this, then why are you entitled to a vote? You haven't put in the minimal work, which tells everyone how much your voting privilege really means to you. You don't care about voting if it's even a slight inconvenience... yeah, you don't need to vote, it's fine XD

  53. And it's been a double-blow to young people because they got radicalized and turned against the rich and corporate and traditional, conservative ideas, only to find out the government they were so ready to hand all the reigns over to in order to abolish these things is scamming the system and stealing their money to make themselves the wealthy class. They see now, what we've been telling them the whole time, that these people that helped indoctrinate them are not of their own. They're from wealthy families, building an entire system that ensures their job security and wealth the more power and authority you hand them. It's an identity shattering experience to realize how mislead you were.

  55. The keep arguing due process, how much does a guy get? He's a confirmed illegal, that's process 1, his case was reviewed by an immigration judge to determine further that he's in a country illegally and it confirmed it was a known affiliate of a criminal organization and given a removal order, that's due process 2. Then after that, he was reacquired by federal agents and identified as the same individual, being processed under the Alien Enemies Act, which was confirmed by the Supreme Court to be legally in play, which is due process 3. This man has been seen, he has been heard, he has been convicted and he has been deported. Due process complete. Do deny it at this point, is to deny reality.

  59. People seem to like forgetting that this is retaliatory action against China's aggression. This did not start with the tariffs, this was started when China started stealing and cheat to assure their position in global trade and EVERYONE has complained about it. This is retaliation. It's not going to be as easy as just talking and protecting our IP infringements. Facebook is on blast right now for selling out to China, this is a major issue. User data, Ai models, assistance in the development of military software, etc. I'm willing to bet, they're not the only one either. We can't just deal with them, we have to root them out.

  61. The thing that always strikes me as odd when it comes to people that believe in aliens is the adamant belief that they must be more advanced than we are... why? Think of this way, the odds of another sentient race out there is small even with the immensity of the universe and all of the things in it, BUT... the nearest Earth-like planet is four (4) Light Years away from us. If anything alive there developed at the same time, at the same rate as the human race, they would more than likely be limited to the same technology as we are. We can't do father than light travel or survive the extensive amount of time it would take to reach them, so why assume they cold reach us? Hell, what if they're actually MORE primitive than we are and are still drawing on cave walls? How would they get to Earth? It's a fair bet that if aliens do exist, they're just as stuck on their own as we are.

  63. Yeah, all the wanted to talk about were those poor people being preyed on back home that were escaping over here to not die back there. No-one ever wanted to acknowledge that actual criminals were pouring in here, just like what had happened with Cuba. Normal people don't want foreign criminals released into their communities, but the people voted into power allowed this to happen, meaning the ones that voted for them allowed this to happen. They have nothing to complain about. This was the bed they made and were forced to sleep in. Now someone's come to clean the sheets and tidy things up again so we can all sleep better at night. This was Boston, my girlfriend is less than an hour away from there.

  64. He means patented in America, but I get his point. I don't like David Hogg either, especially some of his takes on immigration and the constitutional rights of citizens. However, he was 100% right on the psychology of the general public and how the sentiments of the Dems and Republicans have flipped in modern day.

  66. So... because Elon is very outspoken, somehow it's different than any other time a corporate tycoon has ever backed up a political party? I mean, he still didn't answer the question, he just showed a goofy clip. I'd love to know, dollar to dollar, which candidate had more money actually thrown at them, but they won't say that. "You don't have to be super sophisticated to see how corrupt this might be", love the softball language, "might", also love how it still doesn't address the previous times this has happened and how different this really is. Like it's been stated already, they act like we're not aware of this sort of collusion in politics all of the time. I guess he thinks we're just not "sophisticated" enough to have noticed it a long time ago.

  67. Yes, it's all be racism and segregation with a new coat of paint. The best part was tricking everyone into thinking that it was actively battling those two things instead of promoting them. Believe it or not, level heads in these minority groups have been saying this for years, because they know who's pushing these policies and why. Unfortunately, there were too many others that wanted to use it to get ahead, their short-sighted goals pushing things back decades as far as equality, normality and tolerance. Hopefully, the next four years can make major steps to actually make a difference and put us back on track. Unity, not division. Equality, not equity. Love for your common man, not appeasement. This was understood up until bout 12 or so years ago, there's been a lot of damage to people's minds to make them fall victim to this stuff.

  75. It's interesting that this meeting went down like this because all the others, even with people that very openly talk about how much they hate Trump, come over and and tend to keep things very civil and polite. I suppose the context of the situation going on here probably explains why this one was so different. Again, don't focus on how something was said, focus on what's being said.

  76. I'm a little fuzzy on the details of something being regarded as "illegal", but no "criminal". Google: Something can be considered "illegal" but not "criminal" because while it violates a law, the penalty for breaking that law is not considered severe enough to be classified as a criminal offense; instead, it might result in a civil penalty like a fine, rather than jail time or other criminal punishments. This just feels like an unnecessary hurdle and some kind of technicality for a loophole. And NO I do NOT want a third term. I don't care if he's the greatest president I will ever have, I do not want any president to get a third term. He's already pushing to limit the number of terms congress can serve, and I'm all for that. Cycle people out more regularly, this shouldn't be a career, this should be a public service.

  78. Santa Monica Studio, take notes. You made a great story with the new God of War entries, but your gameplay was ass and really hindered the experience trying to play it and enjoy all the great writing. Here's a game that doesn't shy away from the crowd controlling, zoomed out and fast-paced combat that God of War used to be known for. It's very possible to have THIS and have good writing too. So next time try to give us both.

That's right, the USA, the one that supplied anything worth crap. And now the UK is getting involved and Starmer ends his inspirational speech still begging the US to provide the money. I don't have to make things up here, I can just point out what the man said himself to make it clear who is having the biggest impact in this conflict.

  81. I think it's a little telling with Metal Gear Solid 2 when Kojima's next entry in the series is essentially the most Solid Snake game possible, by making you play Big Boss and putting you in a 60's - 70's spy movie. To this day, a lot of people regard the third game as the best in the franchise as well. I think maybe Kojima understood that not everyone resonated with what he did in MGS2 and it was sort of a love letter to those people to get a game with more of what they wanted, that also just happened to have a pretty good story and some of the most interesting bosses as well. Lessons like that are lost on someone Like Neil Druckmann, he understands what HE likes and that's about as far as it goes. I doesn't understand his own audience hardly at all and their wants aren't appreciate in the slightest because it's all second priority to his vision. A vision that needs validated after having it rejected before by someone he clearly idolized. That's what created his toxic behavior, but it doesn't justify it.

  85. The amount of history, both American and activism in America to point out the difference between that and what we're seeing here is astounding. They don't teach people ANY of this anymore, do they. They made all their brains as smooth and malleable as possible so they think things work completely different. They think protest is the same as a riot, they think protests can disrupt the lives of regular citizens to the point of harm. They think they're standing shoulder to shoulder with people like MLK who would have been appalled by these displays. No one knows anything anymore and that's the problem. Thank God we're hitting modern education, people are growing up completely unable to think and with no lessons from their pasts to help guide them anymore. Education was bad when Asmon and I were attending, it's clearly WAY worse today. Peaceful protests are not allowed to be disruptive to the point of effecting regular people's lives. We just haven't cracked down on it in so long that people forgot that's how the 1st Amendment works.

  87. The depression and suicide rates DO have some correlation to societal problems, but I'll bet the vast majority of it is because we've been systemically removing coping mechanism everywhere. Schools, social media, the workplace, everything has become too tolerant not of the individual for superficial traits but that individual's behavior. South Park covered this once, there's a difference between being tolerant, accepting and normalizing a thing or just being stupid about it. Now the harsh reality is, it's a small population of people, whose representatives have all made them out to be insufferable burdens on society that have gone out of their way to disrupt the lives of others that have no opinion on any of it and because of that it's caused backlash against them as a whole and outright rejection. They could have checked this a long time ago to keep themselves from appearing this way, but they didn't. So now everyone else doesn't have any sympathy. They're too busy worrying about themselves to care and some are gonna be happy some of this is just gone because of what they had to go through with it around. Also, it's hard to trust doctors here because they're part of the machine that runs our medical care like a business instead of a service. So they'll always wanna push procedures and medications, especially emergent ones, because there's always some kickback somewhere. It's just like using a sponsor code with a content creator. The only difference is, most people trust doctors enough not to ask for the disclosure and doctors aren't required by law to give it.

  89. I think another release of Skyrim might have performed nearly just as well, especially if they weren't charging full price for it. I dunno, I don't see how Oblivion is eating everyone's lunch of what lesson everyone is expecting other companies to take from this. If they couldn't take the hint with the likes of Balder's Gate 3, Stellar Blade or even the recently released Expedition 33, then I don't think any lesson is being learned here.

  90. "Why do they feel a need to have an opinion on an issue that doesn't effect them?" Because it DOES effect them. They aren't ALLOWED to ignore it, they are forced to acknowledge it. Just look at what happened with "Starfield" they had a pronouns option in the character creation menu. Someone made a mod that removed that feature. A mod is entirely optional, impacts no-one else's game and would be entirely down to the preference of the player. However, that mod was put on blast, it was removed and the person that made it was not only ridiculed they were reprimanded and during all of this we were being told that the pronoun field in the default game was "not a big deal and you can just ignore it." Well, clearly we weren't supposed to ignore it, because we weren't even allowed to remove it from our personal copies of the game we paid for, despite a decision like having no effect on anyone else. So no, it isn't a matter of having an opinion on something that doesn't effect them, because they're not allowed to not notice it.

  95. I'm just trying to figure out what their plan is. They let it escalate to the point that National Guard and the Marines are being sent in to deal with it, but... are they seriously trying to spin that to win the favor of the the regular citizens, because OVERWHELMINGLY they are in support of order being brought back to LA, kicking the mayor and governor to the curb and continuing the ICE raids. So what's the plan? Do they not know how to do anything else? I'm trying to see the end game here. This isn't 2017, they've lost so much favor with the normal, working class people in this country and that means they have practically no support. Also, notice how every time these guys talk, they talk to the press. She's not there talking to the people on the ground. Not even the mob, but certainly not the small business owners, the residents, any tourists, no one. They will not talk or be asked questions from normal people they don't vet themselves.

  99.  @ilikechicken5524  There's a lot of speculation as to the validity of Bruce's fight records if any turn up at all. My key point being, the man had enough humility to admit he would likely lose a fight just based on build alone. Because someone that has double your reach and three times your body mass is going to be very hard to fight effectively.

  108. Not that I think it's a core factor, but it's interesting that Frank Herbert specifically talked about the importance of religion in society and why it was accepted despite the main body of governance not even believing in such things because faith provided not only stability but also control. But yes, we do live in a society with newer generations that are socially stunted in ways that have been very damaging. There's a lot of people that don't understand different viewpoints, world views or cultures, they make assumptions on things and subscribe stereotypes while thinking they're battling some boogieman of intolerance. They have no coping mechanism to deal with the fact that their perspective is very narrow and a very black and white understanding of world with almost no nuance. These are the people that have been most shocked by this result, the people that don't see themselves as authoritarian and intolerant when they're both of those things and don't understand that this election is a push for "common sense" to finally prevail.

  109. "He just exposed to Beijing where our trade weaknesses are" No, they already know that, they've cornered the market on these goods, they know no-one in the USA is producing them and that there isn't a larger producer of them. But they also know that's the only market they're cornering that the USA is dependent on, so... that's a rapidly ticking clock against them because the second up as a US industry and the second they work out out rare earths deals with a couple of other countries (Ukraine and Greenland), they're not gonna be as reliant on China anymore. Electronics are one thing, but look at almost any mundane item in your house, from dishes and utensils, to the monitor you're watching this video on, to the pens and pencils and tablets you write your grocery list on, it's all part of that Chinese industrial machine and we're already reducing a huge part of that. I do agree, this looks weak and it isn't something I agree with. I think sticking to it and forcing these companies to quit dragging on getting the American side of these industries up and running is perfectly acceptable. People seemed willing to take the hit, if his popularity polls were anything to go on, so I'm not sure what's happened here or why, but without further context this just looks like a loss.

  110. We're still getting people that can't understand that belonging to or being on the side of a political party does NOT mean you support EVERYTHING they do. People aren't mindless automatons that just follow whatever group think is going on, there's give and take because hardly anyone on the planet is hard coded one way or another. We need to get over this black and white view of EVERYTHING, it's why people get morally outraged because they believe there is a set, clear good vs evil going on and that's just not the case. It's especially not the case in politics.

  127. No kidding you're going to pass a visa over to people that actually contribute to your society, why wouldn't you? Let's face it, the majority of the deportations that happen they aren't going to be highly skilled professionals like engineers, doctors and scientists, those guys are gonna get a visa subtly delivered in their mail one day when this starts. They're also going to be such a minuscule population among the undocumented people here that you'll barely notice, and YES... it is a double-standard and one that people will accept. Now, if this is just a ploy for CHEAP labor, yeah fck that. Everyone's gonna start rightfully paying minimum wage around here, that's just how it works. If you can't float that bill, then make something worth selling or find a new industry. We're already legally outsourcing to other countries constantly just to save money, we don't need to exploit people sneaking in over here.

  128. I think a lot of the people that rank DkS2 higher in the tiers probably started with that game. There was enough mechanical issues, glitches, bugs and just design problems that made it my least favorite. It's the one Dark Souls game I had to FIND the fun in. I'm glad that a couple of the good things that were in Dark Souls 2 did get fully realized and refined in later titles. I wouldn't personally call Demon's Souls the easiest, I still get PTSD from thinking of the second stage of the Valley of Defilement, the Maneaters are still a stressful boss fight and after fighting King Allant once legitimately, I've poisoned him ever since just to not have to deal with him. There's a lot of cool tricks to make it lot easier though, much like... pretty much every other Souls game since. If Dark Souls 1 isn't #1 on my list, it's a very close #2. I can't rank Sekiro. I played two hours of it and never went back. I feel like it's a really well-made game with a lot of great things in it... that is entirely NOT for me. I think I was wanting Tenchu combined with Dark Souls and Sekiro just isn't that. It's a highly skill oriented game, with an incredibly tight combat system and great world traversal, but that just isn't what I was looking for with it. So good game, just not a game I like. I like Dark Souls 3, I'd like it even more if Sister Freide wasn't in it. She's the Lady Maria fight done worse, she relies essentially on sucker-punching you with a surprise third phase and that's coming off the back of a dual-boss second phase. She feels less like a fight that's skill oriented and more like a war of attrition and that's why Lady Maria was far superior boss. Soul of Cinder was a great- themed -boss to end the series. I love Bloodborne a hell of a lot more than I thought I would. I thought the change in combat style being faster and more aggressive and your character being considerably less tanky would have all been a major turn-off for me, but I ended up loving it. Bloodborne has some of the best and worst bosses in the entire series and I absolutely hated the Chalice Dungeons. Aesthetically, it's probably still the best looking game in the franchise as well and the lore... it has the best lore in the entire line-up of, hands down.

  135. The mental gymnastics that guy went through to try and catch Asmon and make him out to be something he wasn't could have earned him a gold medal in the Olympics, this is TERMINAL stupid. It's all emotive, all emotion, all feelings, ZERO logic, ZERO thought. They can only win these arguments by completely redefining what you're talking about. Then they have to attack your sources, when they don't have any better, more reliable sources to back up their claims, which means it's pointless. This is how nothing gets done, because this is how people's minds have been softened for long that they can't actually approach anything with any measure of reason or common sense. Thank God the Department of Education is on the way out, it's done so much harm. No-one learns to THINK anymore.

  136. I think people overestimate Trump's ability to talk with Putin. He's not some loyalist, he has the USA's interests in mind and Ukraine isn't worth the trouble to take by force and put up with all the fallout afterwards. Zelensky backed out of a deal and tried to cut the USA out because Trump had the sheer nerve to expect to be paid back for all the aid they were given and was trying to find something to give Putin to make him leave, and he wasn't going to leave without SOMETHING. That's how peace negotiations work. But now, it looks like there's just going to be more fighting and the US should honestly back out and just watch what happens.
    1
  137.  @willbaskin700  I don't know what you mean by any of this. He was in the middle of working out what Putin could have that would make him leave Ukraine, because Putin wouldn't have left without something, and then Zelensky decided to NOT go forward with the deal he and Trump had worked out already and got a bunch more troops to continue a war, undoing all the peace efforts. Where has Trump folded?

  138. It's not patronizing, everyone that shows up at the WH is in a suit, has friendly chats, answers some press questions and shakes hands. They weren't telling him what to wear because they wanted him to be a dancing monkey or something, they wanted him to look like a proper politician there to do his diplomatic duty, people would take him far more seriously if he did so. Instead, he was unshaven, dressed for trenches and had awful talking points, body language and tried to put everyone on the spot while the cameras were on. He made it clear that he wasn't going to follow etiquette and that's a very aggressive stance to take with people who are doing you a HUGE favor.

  139. I don't understand how Oblivion is changing anything in the gaming industry. It's a remake of a previous game, and Bethesda gave one of those to previous customers for free when they did Skyrim SE, and I wouldn't expect to pay $60 for a remaster, sorry it's not a ground-up new IP and it's still using the Creation Engine under UE5 so it's not a complete overhaul either. What makes this game any different than any time they've ever released another version of Skyrim? How does this effect any other games or companies?

There's a limit to the 80's pop-collar, you can't just put it on your Nikes XD The Amari redesign isn't really good, but it's so much better than what we had to Bowser there that it instantly gets approval XD Anyone that doesn't think that women want to play traditionally attractive characters needs to just watch some VTubers playing Gacha games. Trust me, they're really into a good looking female character, to the point of throwing money at a game for them XD He's not wrong about the stereotyping either. The people that "advocate" for minority groups tend to be some of the biggest offenders for promoting the stereotypes of whatever group it is. It's because they don't view them as equals. They're "helping" or "saving" them, which puts them on a level above those minorities, in their own minds. They can talk like they have all the privilege guilt all the want, but they don't consider themselves the same as minorities, they need the personal validation of knowing they're helping people lesser than them. They need to know that all their power and privilege is being used to make them better people by helping people less fortunate. It's a really toxic mindset.

  145. The reasoning for why pronouns are strange in a fantasy role-playing game is simply because you often wouldn't play a male character who identifies as a female character... you'd just play a female character. Then you are identifying as a female character, because you ARE one. So there's little need to include things like that because often you're going to just play the thing you want to be. There's no need to identify contrary to that. I have a friend that identifies as a woman in irl, they play women characters when we play D&D, it's that easy to do, with no restrictions. There's this real common misconception that investors are just stupid people with a lot of money. If you get a chance to sit in on an investor call and hear what they talk about, the questions they ask and the answers they accept, you start to realize they know a hell of a lot more than just how to throw money around.

  151. Boy, don't all of these people seem like inclusive, forward thinking, sympathetic individuals that just want to raise awareness of the plight of minorities and strive for equality. Truly a most compassionate and thoughtful move to completely crush another individual that did nothing against anyone except try to connect with others and provide entertainment to the point that they would just rather disappear entirely and never be part of a community again. Because that's what we wall want, people too afraid to even interact with others and share in their common passions and interests together. Take this power away from these lunatics. If they really want to make this game the battlefield, then prove to them they don't stand a chance. Ignore them, remove their influences, show them how powerless their hateful behavior really is and they will fade into obscurity and move on to other places where they can still be bothered to be heard. Get - them - out.

  156. Asmon is right, people will start not even wanting legal migrants with how these riots are being handled and the messages being delivered. Also, the people that could make this call for the police and National Guard to get involved are the governor and the mayor who want this chaos, they want to force President Trump to intervene so that they can then run their news about him using military force against US citizens. It's how they try to paint the picture every time. If they want to deal a blow to California, have them force California to remove the escape fee for leaving it. A lot of people don't leave, because they can't afford to pay California to leave. Of course they're simping for people who are child predators, we are a modern Roman empire.

The only problem I had with AZ's rant was how it was delivered and I knew people wouldn't listen to it because of that, but nothing he was was incorrect and yes, time has only proven that 100% What Asmon is saying about how the customers can force the suppliers to meet them on their terms is exactly what Trump is doing with tariffs. We represent the demand, so people can threaten to bring up our prices as much as they want, but if we're the main market, if we're the biggest source of profitability, the largest consumer-base on the planet for many of these goods, then they're not going to want to risk us just not buying their stuff anymore because they make them too expensive, they'll want to cut a deal first.

Guys, they got into global trade because their economy was in a death spiral, they then used every dirty, underhanded trick in the book to establish themselves in a good position. Look at what happens in a week after taking away their trade partners, removing the foreign business in their factories and cut them off from the largest consumer-base on the planet. Their market is collapsing and their economy will right back into a death spiral. The whole thing is a house of cards and that's why they're going to eventually deal with the US. It's that or let the country collapse. This is a war that's won without a single shot fired. Also, if the JFK files are anything to go off of, the USA are experts in destabilizing other nations, so I have no doubt they could win this easily. They create enough problems and unrest for China, it'll be a problem that takes care of itself.

Russia will only feel challenged if we put troops there and find any excuse to call it an aggression, but if we have WORKERS there, then naturally they know that we would defend them and would be less likely to make a move across the border. The security IS guaranteed, they just want it a particular way. They want it stated clearly, they want Putin labeled a villain and they want armed soldiers there. No, we're going to play it that way, because it's not diplomatic, it's a show of force and unnecessary provocation. People need to grow up. Your moral outrage isn't worth a world war.

Normal people don't talk like this, they don't act like this, they don't deal with their problems the way you are. You are not a well-adjusted, adult, normal, everyday person. And the normal people, who think like normal people and behave like normal people voted for some sanity. This generation of people raised with inability to cope, have to get a wake-up call. Return to reality. Then you get people just screaming at the screen, yeah... case and point. Bring back the sanity for a bit, people have been living in their own heads for way too long.
