Sex work is a more respectable career than debt collector, or CEO.

Two delta planes collided on the tarmac, but they call the smaller plane an endavor plane so they can pay the pilots less.

The problem is not presidential immunity. The problem is immunity and the president is just the highest profile job that has it. Politicians never do anything about the root cause, and only treat the symptoms.

Police officers get away with murder because their job gives them immunity. Ceos, shareholders and other corporate staff have immunity as well.

A president getting away with assassinating a political rival is just as unjust as letting a ceo get away with killing 346 people simply because their job gives them immunity for their actions.

we live in a country where robbing a convenience store prevents you from voting, but gerrymandering doesn’t.

Did they charge any of them with a crime for not paying taxes, or did they just let them pay without penalty?

Tim Cain worked on the original fallouts, fallout 1 and 2. He has not been credited in the series since. The fallout series has passed through the hands of many others, who may have included a critique of capitalism as a theme.

If you’re interested in Tim Cain’s ideas on capitalism, he was the director of the outer worlds, which is far more focused on capitalism much more directly than fallout ever was.

google’s android camera app is designed to open google’s gallery app. Google built an OS that has support for user selected app launching. They built a system that lets an app request the user’s preferred gallery app to view photos, but then chose to not use it to force anyone using google’s camera to also use their photos app. fuck google

whether a game is “dead” or not only really matters for online games with matchmaking. If a game requires a large playerbase to function, like an MMO or a matchmaking based competitive game, the game can die. This doesn’t apply to single player or small scale coop games.

Anyone will get the full single player game experience even if they are the only one playing. If the game has multiplayer, like coop or vs play where the expectation is that you will find the person who you will play with, the game cannot die.

Calling palworld a dead game is just as nonsensical as calling starfield dead because of a lower playercount. It literally doesn’t matter for this kind of game.
