  About games hard to run, back on Win7 I couldn’t get Dark Colony installer to run with any compatibility mode (luckily, you can run the game just by copying the files from the CD). StarCraft had some graphics issue but just on menus (I think on Win10 as well), and I couldn’t play Outwars at all (although GOG version has some fix for modern Windows). A GOG game I bought that I couldn’t run on modern windows was Slave Zero.

  Did a single conservative outlet consider this unreasonable though?

  There were also a lot of collection packs in the middle but I was too lazy to count and exclude them :P
  But even if they released just roms instead of physical media, wouldn’t you still be able to play on the actual hardware using Everdrive or something?

  Have you read the comics?

  Spoiler:

  Both decisions are canon

  :D

  The comics are nowhere as thrilling, but I quite liked it.

  The tragedy of making one good story is that you have to milk it until nobody cares about it anymore

  There wouldn’t be meaningful changes yet there would be substantial changes?

  Yes to four of the five serious questions.

  Do you know the Barnum Effect? In my country once they did a funny test on TV, they’d do people’s astrological charts and then read one chart to them, and every single person was like “Woah, this is so about me! That’s totally me!” and then they would be like “Oops, I picked the wrong chart, this one is actually Hitler’s”

  Are they sure it isn’t the pastor themselves that are trying to increase their output of incendiary sermons asking for donations by adding AI-made sermons?

  My country, for example, became energy self-sufficient in 2015, the next year the congress removed the president just because they had the majority. We used to have cheap gas because our internal price was linked to production cost and not international markets, the new government thought it was unfair to the free market competition because our own gas was so cheap here, so it started to subsidize American oil companies so they could sell it cheaper and compete with our own oil… yeah, you read that right, we were literally funneling tax payer money to foreign companies just so they could take our companies out of the market so the government could claim they weren’t profitable and should be sold to American investors… thanks Obama.

  That’s what the USA does. Trump is just keeping it old school by having the army do it. During Obama, three Latin American presidents were removed by US-sponsored coups, one was carried out by the military, but they have a strategy of funneling money to USA-aligned parties through “think tanks”, then gaining control of Congress. So if people elect a president the USA doesn’t like, Congress takes power on bogus claims and changes the policies for what the USA wants. If this fails the USA sponsor the military to take power. They carried out a congressional coup during Biden as well, along with a failed military coup.
  It doesn’t matter if democrats or republicans are in power, the USA steals the resources from poor countries.
