  I mean they were out of stock for weeks, presumably waiting on manufacturing new devices, which are now more expensive than when they were first released, it’s not like they were sitting on a ton in a warehouse or something.

  Sucks, I was excited for the eventual release of Wolverine for PC in a few years, but now i will literally never play it, and that is okay.

  More it seems unsafe than damaging to the rifle, but I guess they don’t care about that anyway?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Two women, in their own driveway, had assault rifles pointed at them. ICE agents broke their car window with a rifle stock and dragged them out.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It appears they are using the barrel of the rifle to break the window, which is even sillier than the other thing.

  Unfortunately due to the cloaca situation, butt stuff is inevitable.

  I didn’t know it was for plot hole reasons, though I wouldn’t be surprised. I thought it was just because the length was spiraling and he needed to publish the half that was done at the time.

  So you can use it as lube?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So you mean A Dance With Dragons? I’d recommend doing the last two books mixed together so you get A Feast For Crows at the same time. Here is a link to one reading order by chapter: …tumblr.com/…/a-new-readerfriendly-combined-readi…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You could watch it if you stop before the end, maybe through season 6, definitely before 8.

  I still recommend the books though, which are still good despite the fact that we will never see the end written by the original author.

  I vote Joe Abercrombie, their style is more similar imo and given direction from GRRM’s notes I think he could finish it much better than the show did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I implore you to stop using the drake meme template⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t seen the Drake meme format in years. The one that definitely needs to go is the Steven Crowder version of the Change my Mind meme format.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is "depress" ever used in this context?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I have seen this more commonly in technical documents than everyday English, maybe there is a reason for that or maybe it just sounds better in that context.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World's Best-selling Video Game Consoles⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The PS3 was stupid expensive at launch, like $600 in 2006, nearly $1000 in 2026 dollars. But yeah I think that argument was made then also.

  I think the PS2 was marketed specifically for DVD capabilities in some cases, I remember an IR dongle and remote control they sold so you didn’t have to use a controller.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World's Best-selling Video Game Consoles⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the PS2 being so well sold is more impressive because the price adjusted for inflation is closer to $560, or $299 in the year 2000.

  I think part of it was the idea that it could also be a DVD player so you wouldn’t need two devices that helped sell it if I recall correctly.
