I’m surprised he didn’t say “wink” out loud

Barr isn't doing anything out of character. https://www.npr.org/2019/01/14/684553791/william-barr-supported-pardons-in-an-earlier-d-c-witch-hunt-iran-contra

Oh, well nevermind.  He's the Republican Presidential fixer, fair enough I guess

He is the essence of republican politics for the past 30 years personified. These peoples I’ll be fine. For gods sake John yoo and John Bolton still are employed! There’s no accountability! At all!

I get John Bolton, he's been around Republican circles forever because him and Mitch McConnell hang upside down in the same bell tower or something.  I also get Stephen Miller, he's finally able to realize his childhood dream of rounding up brown people and putting them in camps.  But people like Barr and Conway who cover for Trump to what looks like their long term detriment I don't get.

So are these Trump lapdogs promised sweet gigs at the Heritage Foundation or something?  I can't imagine Trump's whole "thing" will survive long after he's done, what's the end game for covering for him for these people?

White people are getting pretty terrible at naming their children too in the last decade.

I feel like a lot of white people are all about the regular names spelled in a way that means their name will be misspelled by everyone they come in contact with.

I bet it will be on XB Game Pass before the EGS exclusivity window is up.

That would work, through that deal I have game pass for a while

I don’t know if I’m going to wait for the PC version for over a year or get it on console.

Apparently Hope largely refused to answer questions this morning.

 

 

Buttery males is Trump’s favorite between meal snack

Apparently it was the music rights that expired, not publishing rights 

I feel like the republicans will run on this to a decent amount of success.  The turtle even brought it up and gave their platform in a way.

Someone set off a Halo?

You must mean layers of dirt, because as we all know, PC gaming is dying any day now.

After the death of PC gaming will be the year of the Linux desktop.

I really wish they'd gone further with the Stranger's Wrath direction.

Barnes & Noble is being taken private.

Expect many store closings from that one.

I'm surprised they didn't follow Borders years ago.  A limited selection of books at publisher price, who's been keeping them afloat all these years?

His articles on Microsoft were usually pretty good.  I don't get how guys keep doing all this, I feel like most underage girls guys hit up for sex are cops.

I never got their tactic of treating tech savvy customers, many of which may not be the most social people, like shit.  No one likes to be hustled or upsold constantly and it’s not exactly hard to find a video game in stock, that hasn’t been an issue probably since the 90s.

You could use a screw extractor drillbit, it’s probably too big for a laptop heatsink screw though

The obvious is obvious? If we only did what we had to, we would still love in caves. We didn’t have to go to the moon either. Human history is full of people pushing boundaries. It’s the most special thing about us as a race, we strive for more. Or the better of us do.

I mean it isn't pushing anything now, there was literally a fucking line.  It's just rich guys ticking a box on the bucket list.

Next time I go to New York is DHS going to try to sell me their mix CD or force beads on me?

This sale is a nice gesture, and one I'd like to see more of.  It's the right type of competition.  I'll still avoid buying any games there which Epic has exclusivity for out of principle.

If Hades was going for that price on Steam, I'd buy it immediately.

I would have bought Hades for full price on steam already.  Supergiant makes solid games, but I have a sizable backlog and it’ll eventually come to Steam so I can wait for a sale.  Same really goes for Phoenix Point and Control.

so you wont be signing up then?

Guess not

Cool, I’ll download their store when they cut the shit with the money hat.

I wouldn’t be upset if they went away.  Every time I’ve gone there it has taken 10+ minutes to get a shake and a burger.  I don’t know what their processes are back there, but they’re worse than every other restaurant of their level.

This is another example of the current culture of outrage, that Polygon immerses itself in.

 

"Someone" can be offended by how almost any human-like villain is portrayed.

I even think there are some people who find offense in how Nazis are negatively portrayed.  (For the record, I am not one of them.)

Wasn't there a group upset over how bad guys were portrayed in that last Wolfenstein game?

Games like this are the ones that I happen to see on reddit or something and then pick up on an impulse.  This epic exclusivity might actually be saving me hundreds a year if they keep it up.
