This guy is going to be so weirded out when everyone he went to for news starts calling him a liberal plant.

I had been meaning to pick up The Gardens Between, so this pushed me over the edge. I should also get around to picking up and playing Florence. It looks like a good short round of fun.

We’ve had actual bombings in this country by right and left political actors. This isn’t something new. It’s always a sad day in America when this stuff happens, but we aren’t in remotely uncharted political territory here.

There's a huge difference where, in this case, the president is blaming these bombs on their recipient "dressing too slutty".

Apparently the device "sent" to Soros wasn't sent, it was placed in the mailbox.

It still could have been sent through some random courier as opposed to the post office or larger shipper like UPS or FedEx.

I'm really starting to believe a foreign government duped Bloomberg. For what reasons, I don't know, but it would be the only explanation that would make any sense here.

Man, I couldn't be happier for Price. He pitched his heart out and earned that. What a way to get your first postseason win after so many failures. 

I couldn't be happier for a lot of them. I'm trying not to be biased, but I can't imagine how anyone couldn't like these guys.

So how long until "well, he was actually a Democrat"?

Not old enough. Plus doing that would make the film seem like some weird sequel to his films. 

1, he's pushing 70. 2, I'm totally OK with that. The Bruce in Batman Beyond should be old, but still look like he can throw a punch. He shouldn't look like he can barely stand for more than a few minutes.

Big Bird is the most ridiculous Muppet to control. I find it crazy he was even able to keep doing it into his 80s.

Nah just get Clint Eastwood to play old Bruce in a live action Batman Beyond film.

As I said in the other thread, the only correct option for old Bruce is Michael Keaton.

She’s a former Republican congressperson too

And she's out...

She also defended her tweet on the way out the door, so there's that as well. I like the line about her experience since it includes her time spent covering for Nassar.

Why would it? They have several lawsuits going on at the same time. He gets to suck around for a while longer 

The new CEO of US Gymnastics seems nice...

...with no promise not to, maybe, lose a child along the way.

I think it's weird to remake an animated movie in live action where 95% of the movie is CG.

You mean like the "live action" Lion King that's coming up. At least this one and Jungle Book had some human actors.

Lost and scared while black 

 

 

This guy needs to get shot in his ass too. 

This is the guy that said his wife was freaked out about this kid trying to break in and then he slipped and accidentally fired his gun, right? That's quite the story when he, himself, has his front door covered by a security camera. I'm surprised he didn't even try to erase the footage.

It did for me. Massive frame drops and completely inconsistent frame rate made me miss the timing on some of the QTEs far more often than was acceptable. (And the acceptable amount is 0.)

Really? The salvaging QTEs were tricky in some areas. The QTEs during battles may as well have not existed because they were so easy to hit. I think the only times I ever missed a QTE in battle was when one of my kids pulled my attention away from the Switch. This isn't Mario and Luigi having you hit attacks in some sort of rhythm or based on some well timed cue. That sucks, but I have no idea if that's the norm.

It gets ugly, it runs awful, and it's not a turn-based JRPG, it's pseudo-turn-based at best. There's way too much movement and timing for it to be considered turn-based.

The only actual timing based action in the games were for the special and elemental attacks and not once did frame rate limit my ability to hit those. Again, I played the game like 90% in handheld mode and sank well over 100 hours into it. This is not an action RPG. It's like Grandia, but you can manually control the character movement and your character just auto-spams the basic attack when its action meter reaches the end.

Going back and playing through Star Fox on the SNES is hard, even though I loved the game when it first came out. Xenoblade 2 is nothing like that. It gets ugly sometimes, but it's perfectly playable and never stops being fun.

I want a Netflix Batman Beyond made by the Daredevil Netflix guys. 

Nah. WB should just do a straight sequel to the Tim Burton Batman films and turn those into Batman Beyond. Bring back Michael Keaton as old Bruce and cast whoever as Terry.

The only thing he is missing out is on nausea

Eh...I played the game like 90% handheld. It gets ugly at times, but it never stopped the game from being enjoyable. This is a turn based JRPG we're talking about here.

Everything about this is dumb. I actually liked Google+ as a place to share photos. There just wasn't anyone to, you know, share photos with there. I stopped using it years ago after this became apparent.

Either way. Update: https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/9/17957312/google-plus-vulnerability-privacy-breach-law

TLDRL This wasn't actually a breach and there is no evidence that anyone's data was stolen. Google patched the issue back when it was first discovered that this the API call could theoretically be used in a malicious manner...not that anyone ever tried to use it in a malicious manner.

Seems to me that Google was already planning to shutter Google+ to non-GSuite users and is just using this as an excuse to either announce their plans or hasten its death.

The only people who really understand it are the 4 million people in DC and PR.  To everyone else, it's a factoid that is rediscovered during election time and then quickly forgotten about.  

There are an other 5m or so Puerto Ricans living states-side, so I'm pretty sure that number doesn't cover half the people that care about that factoid.

Well, ain't that swell.
