Subscribing to soda?

Oh, I just assumed it was something like what Amazon does where you can subscribe to any recurring item... including batteries

On the one hand, picking up pop is good exercise... it's functionally water weights which is pretty high in terms of density

On the other hand, the stores are ripping people off lately - the Rexall wants $5 for a 2L... ya, not 2 for 1, just 1.

Found perfection (skip ahead to the gameplay)

And 4... IE: The best one

The Spanish Flu was named as such because the Spanish news wasn't sugar coating their statistics so they were reported as higher than everywhere else, even though they were about average.

...

So covid-19 is the American Flu

That's like the worst description of it I've ever heard.

While quasi-facetious, I meant cuz it uses a multitude of skill checks to solve the same problems

The unabomber?

It's like if Fallout was shorter and had a point

> despite the PM not willing to use the military to end the blockade

So don't use the military, use the plain ordinary POLICE cuz that's their job

My balls are so getting Liched tonight

yeee

I like good ports

Other than DSP I think people are misunderstanding me...

I mean something like if a Star Wars game let you do the entire Death Star

ya, it's not like you can work the jobs concurrently unless one of those jobs can be done from your phone.

define 'liveable wage'

Cuz someone working should be able to live, otherwise it would be financially sound to crime instead

ignoring your asinine trolling, a large amount of chocolate chip cookies would take about that much (unsalted) butter.

ya, as a kid we'd make cookies all the time and since we had a big extended family nearby we'd always make double-batches so having that much butter on hand was common

Well, it's not like you're allowed to defend yourself...

Couldn't you fly across the entire planet in either Chronotrigger or Secret of Mana?

For some reason, I think DQIX had it as an option.

this is true, I mentioned similar effects in my OP

But what I'm looking for isn't so much the game itself, but more the tech of flying over a small globe...

I think FF8 might have been the closest to what I mean, other than Super Mario Galaxy (occasionally)

It doesn't have to be the Earth, just a little planet...

I know there's old Mode 7 games on the SNES, and it's not exactly a rare motiff - all the Final Fantasy games on PS1 use it

But I mean one with a smaller planet where you can see the curvature as well, kinda like Super Mario Galaxy only slightly bigger... and Star Fox'd

How about recapturing that feeling of things you enjoyed in the past ?

that's just having fun

TimeCrisis posted...

Explain?

Nostalgia is a specific feeling - a mournful feeling of not being able to go back to the way things were

But partaking in things you enjoyed in your past isn't that...

recapturing your childhood is not the same thing as nostalgia

Jesus Christ, did you leave the game running for months?

It's a semi-idling game, you play it while playing other games and check in occasionally

Ya... meet Putin in an environment where they can stick a swap up your nose (I presume that's the test currently)... why not drink a gallon of Russian Tea while you're at it

Gaawa_chan posted...

Holy s***, how about no? This is brazen scapegoating/shunting of responsibility.

You're right - I was mistaken about the situation, where if a crime is in progress the criminal is reponsible for tangential damage - but serving a warrant in no way counts as a crime in progress

So ... yes... I was wrong.

Are you or are you not in favour of punishing the higher ups?

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


See, this is why I can't tell if you specifically are gaslighting me...

I already said someone in the police needs to be punished, so when I say it should be a higher-up and you disagree it makes me think you're in favour of the current system.

I agree with the notion of punishing both though.

you know there were more words after the analogy.

You know Hitler also drank water... and ordered his people to drink water;

The nuremburg defense doesn't apply when the orders are reasonable... now, if you want to make a case that the orders are unreasonable, then you MUST also agree that punishment has to go up to the order giving level at a minimum.

yall need to relax

i am trying to understand your view of justice and struggling, so sorry if this comes across the wrong way but: you realize it is possible for more than one person to be at fault for something, right? if i order you to shoot somebody and then you do it, we're both at fault.

there is plenty of evidence that the cop shot this innocent guy. there is plenty of evidence that no-knock raids are incredibly negligent and likely to lead to this kind of incident. so both the cop and the guy who ordered the raid are at fault. simple

Ok, I can agree with that...

It's just that I sympathize, cuz if I had to raid a building and I saw someone with a gun, what would I do?

chelsea_wtf posted...

yeah, that's not the part we disagree about. we're saying that the cops are still morally responsible for their actions, even if they were ordered to do it

and that in a just world they would be held criminally liable as well, even if they were ordered to do it

I was trying to say that when there's no operational negligence in effect, the blame needs to go higher up the chain.

If you think there is enough evidence that it was the individual officer at fault, then I agree. If you think there isn't enough evidence so a higher up is at fault, I agree.

chelsea_wtf posted...

this is literally just the nuremberg defense dude. orders don't make you into an amoral robot. you're still responsible for your actions

which is why no-knock raids should be banned

yasee, i can't tell if you're gaslighting me cuz it seems like people are misconstruing what I'm saying

CoorsLight posted...

Do you still watch all those centrist YouTubers? Cause I feel like this is what happens when you try to find a rational explanation for everything instead of coming to the obvious conclusion that cops are fucking heinous pigs

I prefer rational explanations

yes.

No knock warrants shouldn't exist and open up a flood of negligence. Police should be refusing to perform them. Anything to not hold individual police officers responsible for their actions. I'll tag you as bootlicker from now on. A shame.

ahh man :<

It belongs to the cops and the department. You're acting so weird. Like anything to get out of holding police responsible for their murdering ig shrug

not at all, if the individual officers were negligent then the anvil should fall on them... but the way I'm interpreting is that if you are given an raid order to shoot first/ask questions never then you aren't negligent when you do so...
