At the end of the full video, which also shows another angle, you can see the gun is further down the way behind the fence. He threw the gun away and put his hands up as instructed. The story makes me feel bad all around. A 13-year-old not at home, with a gun, who gets killed after following orders. Everything makes me feel bad. =(

Ratchet & Clank (2016) - Nice Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal - 69 Playing Tools of Destruction now. Over time, this is becoming my favorite one, although the low-res textures from the early PS3 days are pretty bad. In some ways, the plainer PS2 look of UYA looks better just because you don't have all those attempts at HD textures that look blurry. At the same time, it's probably an unfair comparison since I played UYA on the PS3 collection which cleaned things up and upscales to 1080p (though it renders at 720p). 2021 Games Demon's Souls Remake (2nd playthrough) Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney -- Trials and Tribulations Days Gone Astro's Playroom Sackboy: A Big Adventure Ratchet & Clank (2016) Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal

The article's a bit weird, and maybe I'm misreading it, because it talks about the spike in demand outstripping new construction, but ties it to homeownership eluding millennials for the past decade. This is the first line: And then: The headline should be different because the theme seems to be, "After not being able to afford homes, the surge in millennials buying homes amid a lumber shortage and high home prices could screw them again."

So that, to you, overrides everything else I mentioned?

Most PS2 servers shut down before the PS4 even came out. So again, based on what I brought up in my post, I'm asking what was more consumer-friendly at the time.

In response to Bacon: I think Keyser's post illustrates how the ending of the movie affects you. If the ending's all right to the viewer, I feel the movie probably will be as well. Until the ending, I was intrigued, I was interested, and I enjoyed it. But that was the extent until the ending. For me, the ending did add another layer and wasn't just a twist for the sake of it, especially considering the themes of the movie. So now it went from intriguing to much more memorable. How the movie played out is much different than how I thought the movie was going to go. Because I heard it was a superhero film, I thought Samuel L Jackson's character was going to work with Willis on combating super-villainy, probably because I first saw a trailer for this film after I got used to SLJ as Fury. It honestly doesn't feel like a typical superhero movie, which is cool in its own way.

I.... don't know what Arclight Studios is.

What was more consumer-friendly at the beginning of the PS4 generation? PS5 actually has BC again, with just about every PS4 game. PSVR works on PS5; PSVR2 will be BC with PSVR1. It's even easier to develop games for it than the PS4 (more dev-friendly), and its controller is actually cutting-edge tech. PS Now's price was cut in half. Share-play is cross-gen, and they moved from multiplayer with PS3/4/Vita/PC to multi with other consoles. A game was actually bundled with the console, and while its exclusives didn't release on PS Now or PS+, maybe it should be noted that they released exclusives and have a significantly strong year 1 line-up compared to the PS4? I'd also quibble that streaming services are inherently consumer-friendly. I think it's cool that a PS+ Collection was given for purchase of a PS5, and the improved PS+ has been exciting (I still remember the monthly complaints of "Why are we getting only one game a month and it's some cheap indie what happened to my big games?" at the start of the PS4), but a purchase of a game or movie means I have it regardless as to what moves in and out of streaming services, and I hope we're not moving away from the ability to own forms of media long-term (or that it gets in the way or preservation). I'm not too worried as music and movies have a good combination right now between ownership, digital and physical, and streaming, but tech moves so fast.

Jon Stewart: "Even Hitler was like, come on, Bernie."

I didn't really see much of the news covering Trump's statement. Let's do the same.

I'm in the camp of, "This is great, but I honestly don't know if things will get really bad there. Or if there are any circumstances where it'll be good enough to not have troops deployed." And while I haven't read as much into this, maybe that's the point: we shouldn't have been in there for so long in the first place since it would take forever to have a stable country.

Women detail drug use, sex and payments after late-night parties with Gaetz and others WWW.CNN.COM The first thing some of the women were asked to do when they got to the house parties in the gated community in suburban Orlando was to put away their cellphones, according to two women in attendance who spoke to CNN in recent days. The men inside, a who's who of local Republican officials that often included Rep. Matt Gaetz, did not want the night's activities documented. A God-fearing man, indeed. I vaguely remember this.

Worth its own thread, but first posted here: Store PS5 Games on Compatible External USB Drives.* With this feature, you can now transfer your PS5 games to USB extended storage from your console’s internal storage. It’s a great way to extend the storage capabilities of your PS5 console, and you can seamlessly copy your PS5 games back to the console’s internal storage when you’re ready to play. It is faster to reinstall PS5 games from USB extended storage than to re-download or copy them from a disc. Because PS5 games are designed to take advantage of the console’s ultra high-speed SSD, PS5 titles can’t be played from USB extended storage. PS5 titles also cannot be directly downloaded to USB extended storage. However, games that you transfer or copy back to internal storage will automatically update when applicable. In addition, you can select which game modes you want to install (such as campaign or multiplayer) for select titles that support the option. For tips on using USB extended storage on PS5, including storage device requirements, please visit: USB extended storage on PlayStation®5 consoles WWW.PLAYSTATION.COM Learn how to format a USB drive as USB extended storage for your PS5™ console, which USB drives can be used as USB extended storage, and what games can be stored in USB extended storage on PS5. Cross-generation Share Play. PS4 and PS5 players can now Share Play together while chatting in parties. This means PS5 console users can let their friends on PS4 consoles view their game screen, or even try out the PS5 games through Share Play, and vice versa. Options include the ability to share your screen with a friend, pass your controller virtually to a friend, or pass a second controller virtually to play co-op games together. Request to Join Game Session. A selection of your friends’ joinable game sessions will now appear on both PS5 and PS4 consoles, allowing for more gameplay opportunities together. The “Request to Join” option also serves as a shortcut to sending a game invite, reducing the time it takes for you to get into games with friends. Through the Privacy Settings menu, you can modify who can interact with you through parties, games and messages. Improved Game Base. The Game Base menu has been improved for quicker access to important content and features. You can now easily switch between Parties and Friends to start chatting with your existing parties or see what each of your online friends is up to. In addition, you can turn notifications on or off for each of the parties you’re in. Disable Game Chat or Adjust Players’ Volume. You can now quickly disable in-game chat, which turns off your mic audio and the voice audio of other players. Additionally, you can easily adjust the individual voice chat volume of other players in the same chat so you don’t have to ask your friends to lower or increase their mic volume each time. Game Update Pre-download. Once it’s enabled by developers, title updates for games will pre-download to your console if the “automatic updates” setting is enabled and your console is on or in rest mode. This will let you start playing the latest version of a game immediately after the update’s release. Customize Game Library. With the ability to search your library or hide games from view, it’s now easier to find content and personalize your view of your game library. Screen Zoom. You can now adjust the magnification of the screen to suit your preference from the Settings menu. New Trophy Settings and Stats Screen. The level of trophies that results in automatic capture of a screenshot or video clip can now be customized — so you can now choose to only capture and save images/videos of moments when you earn higher-grade trophies, like Gold or Platinum. We’re also introducing a new player Trophy Stats screen, where you can check out the summary of your trophy level and status at a glance.

I think one of the real tragedy is that if the Taser had worked, nobody would have been shot. 😕 It actually could have saved a life.

The black Capitol officer who got Romney to safety and led the mob astray was also a bit overweight, but I'd buy him a drink. The whole issue frustrates me because it's probably one of the few issues where I feel that two sides are speaking past each other. And some just have ill motives and are racist, but I know some people who work crime scenes and get excited if they can prove someone's innocence. So I know there are people who really think it's a calling, but I also know that too many people die who shouldn't, whether it's Tamir Rice or George Floyd (especially the latter having known people who have gotten off drugs). Fun fact about that: despite how they look, if they're passing the physical exam, then they're good. I don't think it's necessarily none of his business, especially if there are other things in the car connecting the wanted man with other crimes. EDIT: Oh, there may be a misunderstanding. The car belongs to the person with outstanding warrants. It's totally his business, and he was trying to explain that to the woman. Just so the point isn't lost, I'm referencing this one because it's an example of someone who was maybe too patient and was shot, but was able to save himself because he was armed. He clearly wasn't trying to kill anyone until the very last second, so I don't think disarming him would be the answer. An innocent person dying is heartbreaking, but so is an innocent cop. Let's protect both.

I could see letting her go, to an extent. But not knowing what she has in her car (and we find that it's a gun that she used on him), and the fact that she was telling people where she was (don't know if they're armed), there are a lot of moving elements. He even tried a taser at first, which is the nonlethal option, and I've learned they're not 100% reliable. Do we really have to insult the cop when the person who shot him was also fat? Why not pick our battles? I just get worried that at some point, we're just hurting good officers. Yeah, the dude is huge, but he was patient as all hell, wasn't going out guns blazing, and tried non-lethal force AND told her to drop the gun. That's what I want to see as opposed to the Virginia cops who came out guns blazing and I'm pretty sure realized they eff'd up by the end of it. But for this video, I'd rather she had turned her life around (only 31) and he wasn't shot, but given the circumstance, that's a situation when I feel it's brought on herself, and he's alive at that point because he's armed. There has to be not necessarily a straight middle, but something between guns blazing and being unarmed, imo.
