Yeah, this whole "that place hasn't had peace for thousands of years" is a Western talking point made to justify our occupation there.
The Ottoman and Arab empire (which we LOVE to pretend never existed) not only brought a lot of the innovations in science and technology that we still use to this day, but they also had a lot of social advancements that predated Western culture.
If you had the power to save only one life would you take it, or let them die because you don't like your options?
You aren't as morally pure as you think. We have to do what we can with what we have.
Now they're all going to die.
Blatantly incorrect. They jumped on the sword to protect a legal precedent concerning emulation.
If the courts had ruled in favor of Nintendo, guess what? That means ALL emulators are on the chopping block. All of them. They knew.
Once you have case history to back you up, it becomes a domino effect.
This has absolutely nothing to do with cowardice.
Using curse words doesn't mean I'm "so offended". If that's your bar, that's a you problem.
The hell he is. He hasn't been coherent in years. He just says his insane shit with confidence
Does he honestly believe that an single browser company can take down google by checks notes LOSING 85% of their resources?
Gonna guess the poster is very young
Been receiving replies for over a year
Which is still neat
This movie helped inspire both franchises!
For normal people? It doesn't matter in the slightest.
For MAGA? Who knows. Probably something something trans ruining society
Yer right. If the email lady would have gotten elected Roe v Wade would have still been overturned
You're responding almost a month later again. Get a better app.
And yes. That is your stance. You said a bunch of things you don't like. None of which are objective truths, just opinions.
This is beyond dumb and I'm not responding anymore. Touch grass.
I think you're confusing Ground News with .. something else.
Ground News isn't a news company that reports, it shows you articles from various news outlets and tells you their left/right bias.
You should actually use it before making this up.
Yes it was. Gold star for you.
I must be his #1 fan because reasons.
Have an ice cream cone or something man. It'll help that attitude.
It's almost like he had the self awareness to change his mind when presented with compelling, new information.
It's what mature adults do
If you think the only way any adult can change their mind is if they're forced to, it speaks more of you than them.
Not that I'm aware of. Still easy though. Download arch, download Emulation station, then play to your heart's content
There's also emulation station for Android now, as well! On top of retroarch, it makes for a great experience
Cigarette butts really anger me. It's a sign of entitlement that I hate. The person knows it's smelly and disgusting, so they get it as far away from their person or car without a second thought.
I can be judgemental about it because I smoked for over 20 years. I kept a ziplock bag on me (kind of like you would for dog poop when walking your dog) and would keep em in there until I could find a trash can. The ashtray in my car was also used instead of throwing them out the window.
Now that I've quit the habit, I notice it even more. It's awful. My father and mother in law throw their butts on our lawn literally every time they come over, even though they are fully aware that we don't smoke. When I put a coffee can on the front porch and let them know that's where they should throw them, they looked at ME like I was the rude one.
Judge em hard. Cigarette smokers have very little space for other people in their world.
I've been on it for about a month. All the people I followed on Instagram (that have downloaded threads) automatically were added to my follows. Lots of Sci Fi and movie discussion
Politics, too.
My experience has actually been pretty good. It's like Twitter but with a lot more leftists stuff
No it doesn't. Didn't for me. I lived in a twenty year old Ford explorer for almost a year pursuing mine. Didn't succeed or make it big, but I wouldn't have traded it for the world. Not every dream relies on college loans, dude. Not if you're an artist.
I'd go so far as to say man, many dreams people have don't require a degree.
And if they do? DO IT ANYWAY. I attended two years of college for film. Never got a career out of it. Still paying off my debt. Still don't regret ANY of it.
Still getting by on the strings of my butt hairs in my 40s. Still wouldn't take any of it back.
Never sucked the love for either dream out of it. Did I get depressed? Sure. Did I go through a lot of shit and a lot of disappointment? Definitely. I'm two years out from failing in my latest attempt at pursuing one of my many dreams. You couldn't pay me all the money in the world to take it back.
You're speaking to me.... about me. About my experiences and telling me how it made me feel. Sorry my dude, I can't agree with you.
Take those chances. The memories are worth it. The stories are worth it. The lessons you learn along the way are definitely worth it, homie
Counterpoint to all the young people: Never listen to ANYONE who tells you not to follow your passion.
It's better to try, fail and learn than it is to grow old and wonder what could have been
