Nintendo patents video game inventory system.

Not the onion.

(Not a patent lawyer, and I’m sure it’s more complicated than that, but come on)

Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

The idea is that it gives moderate republicans a path to voting for her.

Without the endorsements, they would feel like they’re betraying their principles and their party to vote D. With them, they can make a choice: Lots of rank and file voters will stick with Trump, but if a few party leaders, recently respected within the party, can vote for Harris, maybe that isn’t such a betrayal after all.

Will it change the vote by 5-10%? Basically zero chance of that. But if it swings a few thousand voters in some strategic areas, it can make a difference. It’s not a strategy aimed at very many people, but those votes on the margins matter.

Sounds like just the publishing side was affected. Lots of other independent developers are kind of in limbo in the short term, which does suck.

Hopefully they can get out of any contracts and go to a publisher not associated with that family.

If the race were between The Literal Devil ® and Jesus Christ (D), the vote total would be 45%-55% just based on the letter they choose to run after their name.

Policy doesn’t matter when people base their entire personality on their political party identification.

They do point out that they will be monitoring how it’s used, and could adjust things later.

Sounds like corporate-speak for “if people abuse this, we’ll lock it down harder.”

Even if people are using it to share with actual family around the country, they may get caught up in future updates that remove that feature. Also note that any publisher can opt out of the sharing. If EA or Ubi or some other big company doesn’t like the lack of limits, they may be able to force Valve’s hand in changing the policy.

The idea is wonderful, but there are a ton sof ways this could end up worse than the old system.

There are things I disagree with Harris about, but this cycle, I’m a single issue voter.

That issue is “never having to experience Trump in any office ever again.”

Hopefully my politics can be a little more nuanced next time.

I haven’t seen it, but it was apparently good enough to earn nearly $1.4 billion worldwide.

“Terrible” may be accurate in terms of plot, faithfulness, etc, but certainly not performance.

Harvey Dent finally meets his soul mate.

Man I just don’t get modern art.

Gameboy Advance had single-pak link (buy one copy, play with up to 4 linked devices) 20 years ago.

Greed has defeated the technology, though.

How dare my meddling not work out, you’re all fired!

In a world where every person is free to share their opinion directly to a mass audience, *we need trusted experts in various fields more than ever.

No, they’re not necessarily going to be concentrated only in traditional media, but if I’m looking something up real quick, I’m more likely to trust some random author on a real news site than some random author on social media. Maybe I’d still get wrong information sometimes, but the odds are better.

In this analogy, when you add a new book, only then is that “deleted” book actually removed and replaced with the new one. Until then, it just sits there waiting, but since nothing is pointing to it, it’s hard to find.

When someone recovers a file, what they’re doing is going book by book and reconciling the index to see if there’s anything missing. Since this book still exists, it can be recovered.

And as soon as the young spelling pro gets “eye”, throw “ewe” at them.

Most “Q” words are weird to start with, then just adding a bunch of silent vowels at the end doesn’t make it any less so.

Not a scientist by any means, but this article (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3767421/) says men have a 3:1 difference in the rate of Antisocial Personality Disorder.

Another: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3920596/

There is compelling evidence from behavioral genetic research that heritable influences are of importance in the development of antisocial behavior; approximately 50% of the total variance in antisocial behavior is explained by genetic influences. Yet, there is also evidence of a large environmental effect, both shared and non-shared environmental influences have been found to explain the remaining half of the variance.

Obviously I don’t mean to suggest that everyone with ASPD is a serial killer, it presents in a number of ways, but it’s hard to imagine a serial killer without some sort of disregard for the value of life. This is probably one of many factors that tilt the scale toward violence being much more associated with men.
