I only see one person who questioned if you were trolling. And the response you’ve largely gotten are because people don’t agree with your point of view.

It’s good to have advocates in positions of privilege. If we were all to rely on someone like yourself to try and change hearts and minds, how quickly and widespread can you move that message and get people to understand the plight of workers? Not as quickly as someone with privilege and influence who can help with that.

I don’t know this guy or his politics, just examining this discussion and (as with the other responses you’ve gotten) not really sure where you’re coming from with this. You said yourself your co-workers listen to this guy all day, you can see that kind of thing is important right? (If it’s the right message he is pushing of course)

Bleh. But in the end I don’t expect anything good out of the AAA industry. I goes it’s an exception nowadays whether as gave like this can be good. And I mean, it’s not like I was gonna play it anyway.

Haha. No, those games give me no frame of reference. But that kind of tells me everything I need to know anyway!

Free standing clothes shelf. Four shelves and some pegs for hanging shirts. My partner needs more space in the wardrobe.

Also need to finish making a small play table for the kids that I started 2 years ago. I didn’t have the tools I need to flatten it properly, but it’s still sitting there.

Then I’m mostly going to be just looking at doing some home repairs since I’m out of work for a little while. Back verandah is rotting and could use some reinforcing.

If imagine it’s a reference to him hearing Pam and Penny arguing or something.

Why is that? I played Origins on ps3 but I’ve never played any of the sequels, so I have no idea.

What about “heavy handed” makes you think I thought this was a good idea?

Yeah, handheld war, Anbernic vs Miyoo, amirite?

We still have a fair bit of 360p content, it looks awful on the 4K tv in our lounge room.

On our old 32” 1080p screen in our back room it looks just fine. So we’ve been watching different content in different rooms 🙄

Are you serious dude? Fuck me.

I live in an area in regional Victoria where you’ll get behind one of these guys for a 5-10km stretch.

And I grew up in regional NSW where it could be more like 15-20km.

If you’re on the asphalt you overtake if you can see it’s safe to do so as usual, or if the operator can clearly gesture to you, unmistakably, with a hand signal that it’s safe to go around.

I’ve never heard of the right turn signal thing.

Yes of course. And if they go spend it on a pack of chips or coffee from the 7-11, that might be just what they needed to get through the next few hours.

Only they know what they need right then and there, and I hope we’re past the condescension of people refusing to give money but offering some food item they believe the person would benefit from (because “if I give money they’ll just waste it”).

Sometimes they might want to talk if you can spare some time too, to break the social exclusion they’re feeling.

And they might not be appreciative, or they may have a as bad attitude, that’s the way it goes. They’re dispossessed, they’re looked down on, and they could be sleeping on the side of the road on a rainy night wondering how long they’ve got left. They may have lost families. They may not have it in them to say “thanks mate”.

So let it ride. Don’t build an angle and be like “nah, she’s all good, it’s just for the storyline”.

If Meltzer’s reporting plays into building the angle, bonus! What are they getting out of correcting it?

Have mega corporations like Facebook/meta and Twitter/x been held accountable? Because they’ve resulted in kids killing themselves or developing psychological disorders.

What I’m not seeing is the backlash against those.

Fuck our useless government. Incompetent like most. But I’m so sick of the corpos getting a little bit of outrage and then not only do people move on in short order, but they keep using their platform and generating profit for them.

Too many kids die over this shit. The corpos have had, what, 15 years (?) to sort this shit out.

So now we see the heavy handed government regulation coming along. That’s what happens.

What is FC25?

I can’t stop looking at the penguin. Best penguin drawing ever.

Not everyone is the same. I thought the Mario games were bad back then, and I think they got worse with 3D.

Don’t get me started on Mario’s visual design and lack of aesthetic appeal.

The fact that Sonic is still around, kicking goals, being loved by children everywhere, and making Mario look incompetent; well this makes my childhood smile.

I never would have even dreamed I’d be buying Sonic figures for my children.
