| Topic | So now it is "woke" to report on the WNBA |
| Mizznox 02/02/23 4:10:32 PM #56 | Everyone defines "super team" differently so it really depends on how you look at it, and whether you differentiate between "this team just didn't work" and a good team ruined by injuries. And like I'd consider the 80s Lakers and Celtics to be super teams because of their ridiculous collections of talent, but a lot of people only give that label to teams using free agency/trades to bring the talent together (which would mean "super teams' basically couldn't exist prior to the expansion of free agency in the 90s). --- https://i.imgur.com/qUAL3fG.gifv |

| Mizznox 01/31/23 8:13:32 PM #16 | IRL, if you suspected a ~10yo of being all alone with a stolen credit card, informing the police would probably be the wiser move. In movie terms, yeah most of the rest is justified, but one thing I'd say is definitely not: sneaking in and trying to get a peek of "the father" in the shower. --- https://i.imgur.com/qUAL3fG.gifv |

| Mizznox 01/27/23 6:22:12 PM #37 | --Zero- posted... Oh no. Either cloud gaming is trash or this game has some issues. No c button strifing and it feels like it's a little laggy despite my speeds and fps being great. I don't remember the MC sliding around before stopping either. I have great internet speeds and every cloud gaming I've tried (not much, tbf) on Xbox has been laggy. The "sliding" to a stop is something I do remember from the original. --- https://i.imgur.com/qUAL3fG.gifv |

| Topic | Why are Republicans calling Xbox woke for having a sleep mode? |
| Mizznox 01/26/23 7:33:58 PM #17 | Because Microsoft had the audacity to mention "climate change" in announcing it, which triggers them into saying really stupid shit.

| Topic | Fox: Xbox "woke" for adding power saving mode |
| Mizznox 01/24/23 4:52:31 PM #32 | viewmaster_pi posted... idk if it's been addressed in the thread or not, but xbox always had power saving mode. at launch, it disabled quick resume, which sucked, but they made it compatible with QR a while ago. what they've done is turn it on by default via system update. which is good. They've essentially already had it, yeah, though the new thing is slightly different: the new "shutdown" mode instead of "sleep" mode draws less power but takes a little longer to start back up (I assume no more than a couple seconds). No idea if it affects quick resume. --- https://i.imgur.com/qUAL3fG.gifv |

| Mizznox 01/18/23 8:12:10 PM #84 | DeadBankerDream posted... The police are just standing there modelling for her publicity photos. Explain to me how that's not staging.The big question would be, are they doing so before or after everything went down? Posing for some photos after they've finished doing their jobs isn't unusual with celebrities and hardly means everything before that was staged. Maybe the image of her being carried away was staged, but there doesn't seem to be any reason to believe the protest being broken up/those people being temporarily held for ID checks was fake, the protests have been an ongoing story and it's a pretty tame, run-of-the-mill encounter for police vs environmentalists.

But... Yes (you can stop reading here if the basic yes/no is all you care to think about and don't want any nuance) I'm capable of feeling both that his initial actions were perfectly justified, and that executing someone who's already disarmed, heavily injured, and no threat whatsoever anymore is beyond fucked up. --- https://i.imgur.com/qUAL3fG.gifv |
