Yup one person did!

Details please?

Killer Instinct is still getting regular tournaments

only if youve risen to the top. Have you?

But really I don't know what the fuck they were thinking when they made 'Origins: Wolverine'

If it weren't for my adoration of Hugh Jackman I'd consider it one of the worst superhero movies ever made, if not *the* worst

Didn't stop Ryan Reynolds from redeeming Deadpool (and himself)

Maybe if they didn't hyper focus on Wolverine so much then this movie would had happened. I blame this on Wolverine fans.

it's obscene to me that he makes like 3000x the amount of the actual workers do.

Do you have evidence to back that up other than an anecdotal observation? I'm not trying to be argumentative, and I appreciate you defending my post earlier, but in the spirit of seeking the truth is your conclusion evidence-based, or one that simply reinforces your current perceptions? Were you aware of how the 2016 and 2020 disinformation campaigns or slanted? If not, is it causing you to reevaluate your opinions or did you just blow it off?

So I will start by fully acknowledging that I am using my own anecdotal observations, and in addition I am limiting what I'm talking about to primarily covid misinformation on twitter. That said, in my experience, there seems to be a very coordinated and very specific fusion of the old Anti-vax guard and tropes (RFK Jr, pseudo-experts, etc) and the semi libertarian wing of the GOP through essentially meaningless buzzwords like "health freedom" that has allowed an insidious amount of old school anti-vaccine rhetoric into the discussions I've seen with my fellow conservative friends. As you may recall, I am still a Republican and I was conservative for decades. So I have a large number of conservative friends, and without question the sheer volume of misinformation coming from them is nothing short of classic Russian-era Firehosing

It doesn't matter how many times they are disproven, it doesn't matter how many stories turn out to be false, they just keep retweeting it and posting it. They literally don't care if it's true or not at this point; it's almost like a badge of honor.

It also reminds me a lot of the post-2020 election QAnon "follow the White Rabbit / Kraken" stuff in which deliberately vague and pseudo religious imagery is used to imply that a new world order is trying to take control. That sort of thinking has bled over into nearly mainstream Republican ideology, and it's very dangerous. Because it's predicated on the belief that you can't even trust objective reality, which means now sources like Epoch Times (which is literally owned by a doomsday cult, seriously) are given undue credibility.

Yeah but at least he used appropriate sources, so I think he made reasonable points.
But I also feel like despite those efforts to mislead the other side, it's quite clear that the current election and coronavirus misinformation network is targeted specifically at the far right.

With separate brands targeting right-wing and left-wing Anglophones, Russian media could amplify domestic extremists on its widely followed accounts across Twitter, YouTube, and, to a lesser extent, Facebook, aggravating pandemic-induced unrest.

Before exaggerating the pandemics severity to left-leaning audiences and understating the threat to right-leaning audiences, these narratives laid the foundation to distort and manipulate public opinion by creating a base of trust and establishing Russian outlets as a reliable source of information on COVID-19. This content had a negative sentiment, reflected in the prevalence of words like death, infection, and hospitalizations, and in line with an understandable and near-universal portrayal of the pandemic spread as negative.

In line with narratives already circulating in right-wing circles in the US and UK, one RT op-ed claimed lockdown-induced suicides to be a greater threat than the pandemic.24 For left-wing audiences, Watching the Hawks focused on corporate profiteering during the pandemic from Big Pharma, to rumors of landlords exchanging rent for sex from downtrodden tenants, to continued budget expansions for the US military.25

Basically, a large percentage of misinformation blogs that target the far right are either directly run by Russian misinformation networks or are funded by them. They also own a huge number of fake Twitter accounts that put out anti-vaccine/antimask rhetoric often focusing on distrust of Health authorities. The inability / unwillingness of the far right to fact check anyone they want to agree with makes them perfect sitting ducks for this kind of misinformation

Of the roughly 3,500 ads published this week, more than half about 1,950 made express references to race. Those accounted for 25 million ad impressions a measure of how many times the spot was pulled from a server for transmission to a device.

At least 25% of the ads centered on issues involving crime and policing, often with a racial connotation. Separate ads, launched simultaneously, would stoke suspicion about how police treat black people in one ad, while another encouraged support for pro-police groups

Investigators at social media analytics firm Graphika studied the operation and said Peace Data predominately targeted progressive and left-wing groups in the United States and Britain, but also posted about events in other countries including Algeria and Egypt.

It said in a report that the website pushed messages critical of right-wing voices and the centre left, and in the United States "paid particular attention to racial and political tensions", including civil rights protests and criticism of President Donald Trump and his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.

Nuclear and natural gas energy plants could be counted as "green energy" under controversial EU plans just unveiled.

The European Commission says it has decided that both types of energy can classify as "sustainable investment" if they meet certain targets.

But the move has divided the EU, and been fiercely opposed by some members.

So....wtf is a stand is where is it from?

I think you confused this with "writing your tests before writing the code".

Plus, safety-critical has extra components in the workflow added to it.

Again, comments really don't matter. They help, for sure, but they don't imply 1. software quality and 2. what the software actually does.

Comments are all talk whereas code is all walk, baby.

what's taking it so long? thought it was announced in 2018

Also, can people eat multiple devil fruits and get multiple powers or is it only 1 power per person?

Probably a Stand.

You lose the ability to swim with Devil Fruit powers, and being able to swim may save my life one day.

So still a byproduct of racism.

He hasnt got much of a case from what Ive seen and heard so far, unless he has some really damning evidence stashed away for his day in court. Otherwise hes going in with statistics that everyone already knows about, and circumstantial evidence at best. Black listing yourself from an entire league because youre mad you didnt get a job is batshit insane. Good luck to him thoughhes going to need it.

No, but to make a "consideration" down the line instead of having it day 1 is a no go for me. I've played that game back on the PS3 before and while it's a solid game, I can't say the same about the online experience.

This is really good and could open more doors for past games to get rollback as well.

If only Persona 4 Arena Ultimax did the same...

He does. And it's a Pitbull.

bulk up.

never made it past season 1

does it get good

I've watched every episode so far, and still don't know if I like it or not

IMO, we would need some kind of communication protocol so that cars can actually work out that kind of thing in real time before we ever have fully autonomous driving. In networking, there are already collision avoidance protocols that use similar logic to keep multiple devices on a shared link like wifi from broadcasting at the same time.
