If your point is that cops are corrupt, I agree. I also agree that resources given to cops would be better allocated to specialists to deal with certain situations, like a mental health crisis worker sent to a distressed member of the public, instead of police.

I don't know about disbanding the police. For all their faults and flaws, they do also do work that I'm sure most people wouldn't want to be involved in. I'm sure those occurrences are far and few between, but still.

The George Floyd reference seemed somewhat off topic, but I appreciate your level headed response nonetheless.

Because I happen to live on the small island where this happened, and live with my feet firmly planted in reality and not on the internet. I don't hate cops for the sake of it. If I hate them, which I largely do, it's for legitimate reasons, not because "they're in a gang". I have real experiences with cops, where they did real things that were bad, to me and people I know. My issue with them is their actions. Not some perceived gang. Our police have problems, but they aren't plagued with the same problems at the same scale that American police are. American police are actually a gang. Ours aren't, or are at least, to much, much lesser extent.

If you're American, commenting on our police, arguing with someone who lives within the same jurisdiction as said police, stay in your lane. If you are Canadian, and happen to live in the same area, I'd love to hear why you think they are a gang, so feel free to let me know.

These are Canadian police on an island on the west coast... Not American police. I'm not defending these pieces of shit, but George Floyd's murder has little to nothing to do with these guys or our police here on the island. Ours aren't great, but they aren't a gang like the American police are.

Jesus Christ man, do you even have a point or are you just spinning your own tires here? Lol that entire above exchange was painful to read

It's less money in their pockets and more money in ours. That's not going to be a double win in their books.

Getting Epic's money isn't a slam dunk for profit. You're hedging your bets taking guaranteed Epic money for lower potential sales vs non-guaranteed Steam money for higher potential sales. Having a bad exclusivity deal on Epic and then selling your game at a loss (90% discount) on steam isn't profiting both ways, and sometimes isn't profiting either way.

I also disagree with the sentiment that you're reinforcing bad behavior. If anything, you're signalling to them that you won't support exclusivity deals, and are happy to wait for a deep discount on Steam. Ultimately, that's a win for consumers.

That said, fuck exclusivity deals, and I'm much in the same boat where I'm hard pressed to support developers that take them.

No, it's an old dodge ram.

You're a smart cookie. It is in limp home mode, according to the transmission folks, caused by some sort of electrical malfunction.

The truck is a Frankenstein, and a lot of stuff that was mixed and matched caused electrical issues. It has an engine in it that isn't the original make or model.

I never took it to 50mph, only 50km/h, as I didn't want to highway drive it. It didn't feel like it shifted once between 0 and 50km/h.

No power starting from a stop. Takes like 60 seconds to get up to 50km/h. Without getting too exciting here, it has a background of electrical problems. We have a pretty great transmission shop near where I'm located, so hopefully another kick at the can and they can solve it, because it's out of my league to fix myself at this point.

In dumbfuckistan they do.

It was rhetorical, but I agree with your statement.

Nazis deserve a lot worse than just getting doxxed
