  Yup. Thats what I think this is all about. They didn’t pay orange man enough money up front.

  Or he just wants more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is Bringing Us Kicking and Screaming Into the $80 Game Era with the Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t paid full price for a game since I bought my Steam Deck.

  Sorry Nintendo - it’s going to be a hard pass for me. I think I can live without Mario Cart for $80

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New U.S. DJI drone alternative just hit the market, it’s only 6X the cost of equivalent DJI drone⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nearly 5k!!!

  Holy cow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That explains a lot⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember seeing Event Horizon.

  This won’t end well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MIT builds swarms of tiny robotic insect drones that can fly 100 times longer than previous designs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Horizon Zero Dawn looking more eminent any day now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump signs order establishing a sovereign wealth fund that he says could buy TikTok⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes think of it more akin to what the Germans did to companies that failed or that they didn’t like during WW2.

  Very similar premise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Roblox will restrict kids under 13 from chatting outside of games⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, they seem want to stick their noses in everything else personal/private that is none of their business and doesn’t affect anyone else but the person involved.

  Why not something that actually falls in the category of ‘think of the children’ for once? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Roblox will restrict kids under 13 from chatting outside of games⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Every other day Roblox comes out and pink promises they are going to ‘do something’ soon to make it safer for children.

  Until the government cracks down on them or they loose a massive lawsuit I don’t see it actually happening.

  My niece (who had just turned 13) was showing us the recent update changes she was looking at with Roblox and the chat features. If I understood what she was showing me it appeared to be asking her for her phone number to be able to access the chat features within Roblox.

  Why would Roblox need the phone number of a 13 year old kid?

  We looked at it a few minutes then showed it to her mom and dad who noped right out of that.

  And God said, Go ye forth upon the Earth and pick and choose which of Mine words ye wish to use to torment your brethren.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why play a fascist? Unpacking the hideousness of the Space Marine⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed.

  Also in 40k there are no true good guys.

  Just a sliding scale of how bad do you want your good to be?

  And your true bad guys, well that’s a whole other issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat lead⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah this doesn’t do squat to prove or disprove anything to these nutters.

  I’ve done the same with a variety of other things and you will get told the same thing:

  God put it here.

  Thing is you cannot argue with the above statement because it falls into that sort of argument you used to have when you were a child when the other kid would say ‘Nyah! Last word!!’ or ‘I can’t hear you!!’

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump cosplaying⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Coincidence? I think not.

  So it’s Lt. Commander….
