Why did anybody spend money on producing this “movie”? I mean really… somewhere in the midst of this someone should have started question their life choices.

Well maybe not. The “no objections” is just him setting him up to give it a shot and not wussing out. And the “evolve”… not sure about you guys but I’m significantly different than I was at 22….
I’m not super fond of the phrasing either but I think his heart is in the right place.

I’m 54 and I’ve realized you can meet people in the weirdest places sometimes. She might be a very nice girl. Worst case scenario is you have a bad blind date. If he keeps doing it it might be a problem but humor him at least once.

Yeah had a neighbor that would just pop in all the time. It was cool until it wasn’t. We moved and barely speak now. I think I know one person in my new neighborhood and it’s very much just an acquaintance.

Death Stranding 1 & 2. I mean they are walking simulators anyway. I’m not dissing the game at all. Probably have 500 hours plus in both of them combined.

In this case I believe there is a difference between “contain no original molecule of soup” and “so fucking close to water you might as well be having sex in a canoe”

You’ll notice these people are usually less fuzzy in the death pics because the shutter speed was pretty long and they aren’t moving.

I have no idea how half those store in that Venetian mall stay in business. I went to VMware Explore this year and there were quite a few people attending but very few of those stores had any body in them. The food places seem to do ok but the high end stores were just empty. I can’t imagine the rent is cheap enough to keep them open. It was kinda sad actually. Reminded me of going into the dead malls around here.

Yeah it might be substituting one cost for another. But I thought the Fresnel lenses were pretty cheap. No idea of that would work or be feasible.

- Comment on Just.....why? 5 weeks ago:
I am what you would call a technology enthusiast, or what some people have dubbed as a gadget whore. I love little electronic devices that make my life easier. However, at no time in my life, will I ever need or desire a toothbrush that needs WiFi access or a subscription to some service. It really isn’t necessary or even useful. It’s like the old comic about the toilet that needs a phone app.

Being that it’s a known game and this is a sequel you may very well be right.

Also very true. I’ll just wait.

But what they don’t take into account is that 75% all at once creates an excitement buzz around the game that ends up causing even more sales then would ever happen otherwise. Look at games like Pokémon go or PalWorld that generated so much buzz. I tried both of them because of the hype and I normally wouldn’t have bothered otherwise.

Money means different things to different people. Look at it this way:
A person is a billionaire and they buy your son a car worth $90k. That would be equivalent to if you make $100k and decide to purchase something for $9. Would you care if your son spent $9 on a friend?
I understand your reservations as I would have them too. But keep in mind, giving your kid that kind of access to a network of that level is priceless. As long as the friend isn’t making your son feel subservient or lesser in any way, I’d leave it be.
My only concern is that kids that come from that kind of money, have access to very expensive lawyers, and therefore take risks most people wouldn’t take. I have seen it happen in person where I live (well used to live). It was an affluent neighborhood and sometimes the kids of these affluent people were complete obnoxious assholes. Not all of them, but definitely a statistically significant portion. That’s what I would be more concerned with. Just my 2¢.

Thank you. I never knew what this abomination was called. I’ve seen several trucks around here (rural NC) that look like this. Now I have a name to hate. 🤣
