It literally couldn't be less important. We shouldn't be fighting about what makes us different or run the Oppression Olympics. That's literally what the 'elite' want cause it stops organization against them.

Far better use of everyones' time would be find a cause that helps everyone, not just themselves.

When you game company collapses under the weight of a previous genration of success and let's board of investors, who couldn't make a fun game if all the pieces fell into their lap, direct all the managers of a project to do whats currently trending rather than innovative and do something that makes sense for the IP and gente.

Come on, .ml, tell us how the west has fallen and Russia is the last true bastion of civilization and people's rights. We're waiting.

Had a boss that refused to give me full time cause that would cost company more money, but would harass me if I ever called out. Would remind him that he refused to make me full time and didn't give me a raise that year so I sure as hell wasn't driving through a blizzard to come to work a night when I hadn't been scheduled until 15 minutes before he called.

He's way too deep in bed with Russia, and has been since the 90s if not earlier, to ever be taken seriously. How the fuck he wasn't disqualified and charge over election interference and acting as a foreign agent in 2016 is beyond me.

Nitrogen Hypoxia will render you unconscious in under a minute when its almost pure n2 and exhaust is accounted for to remove co2. The last execution was done on such a sloppily manner you seriously have to question if the procedure was done in such a way that to ensure maximum suffering. The mask used didn't allow co2 to be vented away, their method of execution was only one step up from wrapping a bag around his head.

A proper way to do it, probably not done because cost and some stupid unnecessary procedure, would be to construct a booth around a chair with exhaust fans near the base and a supply of pure n2 coming from the top. If the o2 and co2 can be removed quickly enough the body can't tell its not getting enough to breath and loss of consciousness can happen quickly with death following in minutes. Smarter Every Day has a video on Hypoxia where Dusten, the content creator, is an altitude simulator where they are lowering the air pressure to simulate high altitude and by extension just a few short steps from a death chamber. The host goes through several stages of hypoxia and had to be told point blank to put his oxygen mask back on several times before he risks passing out. At no point does he show signs of pain or distress and if anything acting almost like hes high.

Building a chamber like this for executions would have been far more humane but they didn't want to put more thought or money into it than strangling a guy so instead you get that botch job Alabama used.

I mean... from the cat's point of view that's EXACTLY what it is emotionally.

In general I'd say yes if you like modern final fantasy where combat isn't turn based and there is a lot more flavor to flesh out the world and NPC than games in the 90s could hope to perform. Pretty graphics, Decent overall voice acting, minigames that usually don't overstay their welcome and you never feel caught up in one area too long. If you actually learn the various mechanics Id say the games are actually pretty easy overall, most people I see complaining don't even know how combos work, or trying to button mash the same combo onto an optional boss.

90s (j)RPGs were a different breed all together compared to games today that have that title, so while knowledge of the first game would let you in on the fanservice and call back moments, those aren't required and I'd be betting more than half of the people who played remake or rebirth never played the other FF7 games. In fact some players who did were upset that some characters or scenes were changed quite drastically because what was okay in '97 definitely would not be well recieved by wider audiences in '24

'Self Serving Motive" traditionally was surmised as you were not in line to inherit or profit from a person's death. A doctor or employee of suicide booth incorporated would be allowed end your life but a business partner holding a pillow over your face knowing they'd get majority share of your company could not.
