You don’t seem to know what a remaster is. Most importantly, it’s not a remake and the two terms are not interchangeable.

So at least there will be a silver lining to living through the collapse?

Well the solution to that one 10 year old is pretty clear. Actions have consequences, if he wants to be a little shit he can repeat the grade next year after hard failing this one.

On message for the goons who want to completely eradicate the Department of Education.

Maybe see what player counts look like in a few months before making great and grand plans? People want a fresh take on The Sims, but maybe without the backlog of a hundred DLCs and other EA shittery. But, inZOI may not be it. Apart from the pervasive and distasteful use of generative AI, it may just not have that special something.

So give it a while, lads. Maybe it really will be a hit, but sales in the first week mostly just say that people wanted a fresh swing at The Sims, not that they really want what inZOI is.

And if anyone calls them out on it, they’re immediately branded as “pedophile sympathizers” if not actual pedophiles themselves. So, not only do they get to be violent monsters, saying that they shouldn’t commit horrible violence without any sort of legal oversight (or at all, really) makes YOU the bad guy!

Godamnit, swing and a miss. Second time’s the charm.

They would for sure catch charges. The days of having to do something illegal in order to be convicted are behind us. If the MAGAstappo get their way the only remaining function of the judicial system will be as a cudgel against their enemies.

MAGAstappo. Be a real shame if armed resistance required them to show ID instead of just moving in the shadows.

Now if only he could “Fall out a window” and stop actively destroying the country, that’d be great.

Not just useless but actively unwelcome.

If the primary benefit was reduced electricity usage, then that’s not a function of crypto mining, that’s just less heating. You would get the exact same results with an electric heater maintaining the same temperatures. You have demonstrated that turning the heat down by a few degrees can save a noticeable amount of money.

You got some crypto out of it, about $13.50 worth, at the cost of whatever wear and tear and reduction in life your computer systems may have suffered, but in the end all you did was just put in a whole lot of effort to turn down the thermostat.

I live in a small town in Alaska, more than 300 miles from the nearest decently sized city. It’s been more than two years since I’ve given Amazon a single dime. You’ll manage if you care enough to try.

You just listed things that you can pick up at any number of local stores. That stupid convenience of ordering crap instead of just adding it to the shopping list is why people think going a week without using Amazon will “disrupt the system.” This is exactly the problem.

Do you guys really rely on Amazon so much that one week without feels like a protest? Seriously?

Most of us want the shithead gone just as bad as you do, but too many dumbshits decided they’d rather not stop him because the alternative wasn’t perfect. I hate it here.

Probably because after they do, they crash and it will generally be assumed the crash is what killed them.

He never intended to support Ukraine. Never. This is just some bullshit to act like he’s “Justified” in cutting support. Just wait until he finds an excuse to give it to Russia instead.

Yeah because they were showing such restraint before.

Boycotts are absolutely legal, you are completely entitled to decide who you don’t want to do business with. However, illegality is no longer required for the justice system to be weaponized against you, and President Musk just wants to make an example to others who might not want to do business with an actual Nazi.
