Fox News is already going with "lawless mayhem after Knicks win" so

FWIW, he's canonically a white guy portraying a racist Chinese stereotype. I never figured out what to make of that. It doesn't exactly make it funnier or inherently more satirical. But it is a thing.

Maybe they asked like, "SERIOUSLY thought about shooting someone" or perhaps "thought about shooting someone at a time that you actually had the means to do it" or even "made mental plans to shoot someone."

Or maybe I'm more of a psychopath than I thought I was. Like I don't actually want to hurt anyone, and I don't even own a gun, but the number of times it crossed my mind...

One of the fun things about learning Japanese is that on rare occasions I can read a little Chinese. I'd pronounce the words wrong, since it's different spoken, but the English translation would be correct and the meaning would be understood, like numerals.

Yeah if this won I'd hope it would lead to the "stop killing hardware" movement next.

Not if you're including servers.

When I say he was a monster, when I set fire to his name, it does not matter where you hear it from. Whether truth or lies, it gets said all the same. Whatever's on the table plays.

It legitimately is squeezing out the entry level already and that is its own problem. Maybe it's good for some of us, in that people with experience will be needed for a long time as they prevent all these younger people from getting that experience, but it absolutely sucks for a whole bunch of people trying to make a career, and it will eventually suck for the economy as a whole. AI, whether it's ready or not, or will even ever be fully what the marketing people claim it is, is leading to a whole lot of shortsighted decisions that are hurting people.

And the movies are still fine. I can't think of a single role in either film where Will Smith replacing the actor would have improved the film. He's not really a good fit for either one imo.

To me, 12 was the start of the downfall. Make it less like a classic JRPG and more like an MMO. Got rid of the strategic turn based battles in favor of watching your characters just do things. It led directly to 13, which to me was by far the worst thing to ever happen to Final Fantasy. It was also the moment I realized that I must be weird as hell, because reviewers kept panning the story as overcomplicated (which is basically what I live for) and praising how unique that awful battle system was.

Oh Lord it's all blurring together on me. You're right. I don't get the theory either then.

Yeah it's pretty far down my list too but I think the theory goes that Hilary wanted him dead because if he ratted on Bill then it would hurt her election chances. Plausible enough as far as motives go. Still, I agree that Trump is the obvious choice.
