  1. A legit reason to bump. Fuck fuck fuck... https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/courts_law/supreme-court-says-justice-ruth-bader-ginsburg-hospitalized-with-infection/2020/05/05/9ac4ee42-8f30-11ea-9322-a29e75effc93_story.html "Supreme Court says Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg hospitalized with infection"
  2. The cluster fuck of an administration is going to cause this to last all the way to the election at this rate. -edit- The US is going to have some fun questions when it looks like most of the rest of the world is starting to return to normalcy while they're still watching their situation continue to spiral out off control.
  3. The focus is on trying to keep people from standing around in groups outside socializing. If it was just called physical distancing then idiots would say it's fine to still hold gatherings as long as some space is kept between people.
  4. SH2 is one of the few games where I just had to straight up stop playing the game for a day (it was the *ahem* scene in the apartment complex, i was playing it pretty late at night when I got to that scene). Still love that game to this day. So yesterday night I decided to finally crack open one of my copies of Etrian Odyssey Nexus for 3ds. The music is really strong in this game and overall it's a great entry in the series.
  5. Shame that Amazon.com won't ship it to canada atm and amazon.ca isn't having the same sale for the item. Sure the system isn't great but for $30 I'd take one.
  6. Sorry, not sorry! (Hey I still got to show both my american born and canadian adopted nationality ).
  7. Please do separate between breaking NDA by disclosing information about the game and someone calling out that they should air the company's dirty laundry. Two things to point out that could get someone in worse situation than just violating their NDA, 1) gaining access to information that they were not directly looped into (This tends to happen often in large companies, not everything gets locked up perfectly), 2) Taking home or removing from work any company assets without written consent (even if they were just taking something to finish up at home) tends to fall on theft of company assets, 3) Sharing any company documents/assets/etc to outside parties (this includes emails and etc). Being on assembler games (but also a former game dev) I've seen people get probation and community service (as a lesser sentence) for theft of company assets.
  8. You joke but a few people have done that to lie and get tested sooner (either say they recently traveled or that they were in direct contact with someone who traveled from that region). We've also had the inverse in canada where people coming back hid and claimed they had no symptons so they could board a flight while actually having symptoms the day of their flight. -.-
  9. I haven't looked into it but probably very illegal but not doing illegal things hasn't stopped this administration. Also the thought comes from the fact Quebec in canada has this past year been pushing to change how taxes are processed in their province to collect all taxes directly in their province.
  10. June & July oil futures are not looking well today. https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/quote/CL=F?p=CL=F https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/quote/CLN20.NYM?p=CLN20.NYM&.tsrc=fin-srch I'm sure the GOP in the senate would pitch a fit if California, New York and Illinois threaten to directly collect and withhold their portions.
  11. Sucks but things are still out of control at LTC facilities. If we're lucky the government will come down hard on these places once COVID passes.
  12. I will agree that VG industry as a whole can be a shit show and people can make far better money and have more free time working outside the industry. Yet still this person will find it difficult for a while to get work even outside the industry over this. Also at the same time let's not ignore the people demanding their games for cheaper or free that has a negative impact on the industry to keep cost down. Yeah no, it doesn't work that way. Sony/ND has the leverage here and just airing more dirty laundry will cost this person more if not possibly jail time depending what clauses he violated.
  13. 100%, that person is royally fucked for a long while. Nobody is going to hire them after this.
  14. Don’t worry, Susan will find this deeply troubling but will feel confident that trump learned his lesson.
  15. https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/ottawa-to-provide-commercial-rent-relief-for-small-businesses-154934397.html Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a new commercial rent assistance program on Friday that will help small and medium-sized businesses struggling to pay rent amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The Canadian government unveiled the details of the Canada Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance program, which it said will help lower rents by 75 per cent for qualifying businesses. The program will be administered by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The program will provide forgivable loans to commercial property owners to cover 50 per cent of rent payments from April to June. The loans will be forgiven if the property owner agrees to reduce rent by at least 75 per cent for those three months, leaving businesses on the hook for 25 per cent of the rent.
  16. luckily none of my accounts seem to show signs of hacking but I already did 2fact a while back on my primary and removed paypal. Last week did it for my secondary accounts (JP & US but neither had paypal setup).
  17. There are a few vaccine human trials kicking off right now. While it doesn't mean we have a solution ready for this summer I don't think it will be a full 2-3 years before we have one. It's kind of crazy that some parts of the world will have this under control and partially return to normalcy while the USA will continue to be a cluster fuck over people's selfishness.
