BloodyHell

And adjourned. So this goes through tonight?

Ticketmaster/livenation is far different than this. There are still other major competitors and platforms in the video game market. There was never a chance of the FTC winning this, which is why they tried to run out the clock instead, only filing the lawsuit for a PI in early june. Lina Khan has embarrassed herself again and again. There was never a point where they would win in the US. The trial was ridiculous, wirh the judge having to remind the FTC that Sony’s dominance isn’t a concern of the court. Then rhere was the FTC trying to pretend there was a separate market for Nintendo, which is also completely ridiculous.

The only valid point you have is 3 and 5. 3 because Phil has spoken about about wanting to revive a lot of dead IP. 5 because, yes, Sony has had it too easy. Everything else is nonsense.

This isn’t new news. It was originally going to be “Fighting Fantasy”, which is a godawful name, so thankfully it was taken.

Nah. It’s not even close. I’ve played almost all of them, and none come near to Arise. Symphonia definitely has to be looked at as a product of its time, but that game is still incredible.

I mean, it’s absolutely a true numbered sequel. This is the same nonsense people said about XI and XIV not being numbered FF, when they very clearly are. it may not be traditional, but it’s absolutely a numbered FF.

Its absolutely top 5, it’s easily top 3, and might only be behind Symphonia.

Get it done with.

I mean, sure, but you have to look at the things they got right, like the administration’s demands that Twitter take down a parody account which was specifically noted in the decision. It was banned 45 minutes later. The Laptop is another example where government had no reason to be demanding censorship beyond their worries of the effects on the election. Im all for taking powers from the federal government when it comes to censorship of speech and political opinions. If SM wants to take it down on their own, that’s their right (as the judge pointed out), but it’s not ok to have the government request political speech be removed.

Im not sure how long two of my friends will have to pay, but one is going on 3 years, on top of child support for two children, and in the end she got the house because she guilted him with “The kids shouldn’t have to leave their home”, and as I’m sure you know, divorced fathers have feelings too, and also want to put kids before themselves. my point is, the standard should be dividing shared assets in cash, and child support, and not another penny ever. The house, proprties, joint accounts and cars not covered by a prenup should be forced into sale, bills paid, profit split. Same with joint accounts. I think you’re confusing your amicable divorce with what happens in a contentious one with high price lawyers fighting in court. Thats why I believe it should be standardized, and courts shouldn’t be involved in anything but the dissolution of the marriage after assets are split. You divorce, an expert comes in, tells you what your 50% is as proscribed by law, and that’s the end. And it should be clear and concise from day one. Then theres custody, and how men get fucked. If theres no abuse alleged, each parent should get 50% time with them, a week each, and rotating holidays. There’s literally no reason for this stuff to end up in court when it could be settled with actual legislation that lays out alimony and custody agreements where no abuse is alleged. And I’m sorry, you don’t deserve more because you’ve been cheated on, male or female. Life happens. Edit: I do think there should be carveouts for abuse though.

Tesla will be fine. It’s very not true. While he has certainly destroyed Twitter, Musk has steered spacex and tesla very well. The hate a few here have for him preclude them from ever admitting he isn’t stupid, and is one of the most successful businessmen in the tech sector because he’s good at both lobbying and using government funding, as well as forcing through things like NACS through sheer force of will and by crushing opponents, which has proven necessary to succeed in Capitalistic society.

Yes, but castleton is very hyperbolic in his opinions on Abbott and Texas. The place definitely has problems, but every time they do something, he pushes the most extreme interpretation.

But it sounds like you’re applying Mass. family law to Florida. Either way, aside from splitting assets gained while together, I think the practice of ongoing alimony is pretty gross. Child support obviously is important, but having been a wife certainly shouldn’t entitle you to monthly payments because uou don’t want to support yourself. Alimony isn’t rare as you seem to be making it out to be. I have multiple friends who got the short end of the stick in divorce, losing their homes, and having to pay child support (as they should) AND alimony. Every person should be responsible for their children. Nobody should be responsible for their ex beyond the initial splitting of profits. aAnd if you have any amount of wealth going into a marriage, you’d be insane not to get a pre-nup nowadays.

I mean, putting willing people on a bus isn’t human trafficking, no matter how badly some want it to be. If they were forced, then sure. But it doesn’t sound like they were.

You’re still a long way from the end, and there’s some pretty important side quests at the end, two specifically.

Forza Horizon 5 is pretty much an arcade racer. It’s incredible too.

Lol this is funny for two reasons, the second being Phil said on the stand that ES6 is at least 5 years away on the stand.

Agreed. Maybe not my #1, but he’s definitely up there. It makes me angry he isn’t in XVI. I always loved the weird little FF and DQ monsters. also, where the hell is DQXII???

7R isn’t turn based, it’s action with party control mechanics. You can switch characters as well. Personally, I think yhe combat is quite a bit better than 16. Man, I’m hyped for Rebirth. 7R is so good, it upsets me that @Bacon won’t play it.

Ummm, totally different. FFO is basically a cheesy, buy extremely fun souls like (but with difficulty settings nowadays I think, it didn’t have it when I played on Day 1) and kind of a remake of part 1. its both incredibly dumb, and incredibly fun.

Tales of Arise was my favorite JRPG of the last few years, and it has a non-ambiguous, straight up ending.

I’ve got two left. Pandemonium and I forget the second.

That sucks. Always make extra saves!

Oh, I have, I’m halfway through shadowbringers. I really need to get back to it.

I have a lot of problems with X. II is weird.
