Depends on context.

"They are a couple of weirdos" can refer to a married couple (2 people).

"There are a couple of weirdos" can refer to a random small group of people. But the group has to be a minority, I think.

It's a common misunderstanding amongst less intelligent people that having a family means success and that everyone must make a family to become happy. Even governments see low birthrates as an issue.

The truth is everyone searches for their own happiness in their own way and no one has the right to tell you what happiness is, except yourself.

If it mutates into something on the level of ebola, yes.

But no, the most likely conclusions are IMO:
a) it will mutate into something less dangerous like SARS and either lose the infectivity and disappear or lose the virulence and become another human-endemic coronavirus cold.
b) it will become an even bigger threat, which would make the anti-mask dumbasses painfully aware of the threat, leading to a successful eradication through vaccines and social distancing
c) it will stay endemic, but our bodies will learn to naturally fight it off, possibly leading to natural selection of anti-mask idiots and immunodeficient people

Persona 4 is a mistake and is bad influence on gaming.

Guacamelee is a perfect example for how not to design metroidvania games and ripped its content from other games with no creativity.

2D Souls-inspired games are far better than 3D Souls-inspired games, inculding Dark Souls.

Code Vein > Dark Souls

Soul Sacrifice Delta > Freedom Wars > Monster Hunter games

Indie devs and Japanese devs consistently make far better games than most of what high budget developers have to offer. Mostly in creativity, gameplay and likable characters.

you mean failing to quarantine people, letting the virus seep out all over the world

Okay, then tell me how they could have stopped covid from spreading all over the world.

This is a virus that spreads 100% invisibly. It has up to 4 weeks infective incubation time and a pretty high chance of either not showing symptoms ever or only having the symptoms of a cold / flu. To make things worse, the tests have a very high false negative rate. Basically, you could plant an infected in a group of 10 people and end up with all of them infected without any symptoms. You'd think they are all healthy and reach the false conclusion that it doesn't spread person-to-person.

So that means should it start spreading anywhere it's already too late. Outside of China, countries noticed a small group of infections at the "beginning" in February, then a month of silence, and then it suddenly explodes with high infection counts and ever-increasing death counts. And any 1 person anywhere can start it up again worldwide.

By contain I meant inside of China itself. It leaking out of China was unavoidable. As for USA, Trump Administration spread the lies worldwide that it's harmless and defeated, making the situation worse.

I just dont understand how we were more or less okay for all the other viruses

Because it's a new thing.
-large amounts of misinformation (e.g. Trump, Elon Musk) make people act wrongly, including the braindead idiots who do large high density protests during a pandemic
-the virus is extremely silent. Basically, for up to 1 month you are an infective carrier without any symptoms.
-it's not as deadly as ebola and has very many carriers with invisible symptoms, so it can spread across the world very easily, but the chance of becoming severe/serious/lethal is high enough to kill a lot of people
-there are no immunity, no vaccines, no cures, and no treatments. Basically, if you catch it, all you can do is pray your immunity system can fight it off
-there are still a lot of mysteries about it, for example what exactly it does to us, what lasting damage, whether it can go dormant, whether it mutates enough that we'll be facing it every few months / year
-the people leading the big countries, like China (acted way too late) and USA (did pretty much nothing for more than a month despite knowing it's a threat) are completely worthless and unprepared when it comes to dealing with this kind of threat

Long story short, because it's extremely infective and we can't do anything about it when it comes to prevention, stopping worldwide spread and treatment.
Add to that the anti-vacc and freedom-over-life dumbasses refusing to listen.

Covid is fucking economy badly worldwide and is leading to a huge number of deaths.

The worst part is, we still don't even understand covid after half a year. There are no proper confirmations when it comes to lasting damage, we don't know if we can become immune or vaccinate against it, we don't know what kind of surprises a second wave of infections will have and without vaccines we will never have a way of ending the outbreak because it's infective invisibly for up to 4 weeks.

Going to people's homes and forcing them to test is not gonna work. Too many issues with that.
There are better alternatives, like enforcing it where there's a high risk of infection.

So basically, schools, everyone dealing with sick or vulnerable people, any high population density events (sports / expos) should require the people to immediately test themselves for free.

Please tell me we're on different wavelengths here and you didn't just say it's not rape if a married man rapes their wife?

It becomes a more difficult topic at that point, because sex between couples is normal and constantly asking if it's okay to have sex is obnoxious. If the man just violently pushes her down against her will and screaming, yeah, that's absolutely bad. If he does stuff to her without consent at all, that's normal and not rape as long as she doesn't resist it. So for example if the husband unexpectedly sticks his fingers into her, it may get mentioned by the "victim" for the statistic, but it shouldn't count.

UnfairRepresent posted...
But the one that says 95% are true is legit.

I don't know about that.

UnfairRepresent posted...
You get the research from all the government and police and health bodies from all the organized nations and put it together to get board data.

Eh, that's very questionable.

UnfairRepresent posted...
Then (in the US) research into police investigations of rape found that only 5% are false.

and how do you confirm that they were false?

UnfairRepresent posted...
The point is if a woman (or a man for that matter) stands up in public and says "I was raped/sexually assaulted by X" odds are overwhelming that it's true from the outset.

But going by what you said (that it's hard for a woman to confess rape), odds become much higher that it's not true, because scam artists and greedy/vengeful assholes would be very willing to do it.

And this whole "if a woman confesses, it's truth" mindset is extremely dangerous, it paints men as criminals from the beginning, You keep saying it's hard for women to confess, but what about men? If a man gets raped and confesses, he'll get treated as a loser and rapist regardless of the outcome.

It means if you for example said you were the one who gathered the statistics from people yourself, I wouldn't trust them because you're very biased. I don't know where you got them from, but if the person gathering data isn't neutral and professional about it, the results will be wrong.

.

As for that other arguement going on in this topic...if there's consent (regardless of whether it happens before, after or silently), it's not sexual assault.

Research says in the developed world approx 95% of sexual assaults are not reported to police.

What kinds? Including insignificant or accidental stuff? Or penetration?
Is it real assault, i.e. did they count questionable cases within married couples? What about cases that were kept silent because both parties had a peaceful agreement?

Is that research actually valid or was it strongly biased for the sake of pushing feminism?

UnfairRepresent posted...
only approx 5% turn out to be false

Were all of those 95% guilty verdicts really valid? What if some of those were successful scam attempts, because women have a big advantage in cases like these? What if some of those were consensual but then it escalated into an argument and the victim claimed rape?

I'm not saying women shouldn't be trusted, majority of those are likely real cases of rape, but stop blindly trusting random statistics. They can very, very easily be skewed, especially when there's a blatant anti-men thing going on right now.

Incredibly medoicre game.

Terrible story, repetative gameplay, boring set-pieces, lame enemies, lame main characters. Completely pointless and unpolished stealth/leveling system.

It's like RE4 but worse

I think Zero Punctuation summed it up quite well:

It plays like somebody said, "Hey, make a horror game!" And somebody else said, "Okay, what about?" "I've just told you, about horror." "No, I mean what happens in it? What's the context? What are the major themes you want to work with?" "Horror, horror, and horror. Jesus Christ, just do it, why are you so difficult to work with?" And so the result is this undisciplined mishmash of horror set pieces and imagery barely justified by a toilet tissue flimsy plot, populated entirely by stock characters.

Worst part is after giving themselves the advantage of being able to create literally any enviroment or horror set piece that they could possibly think of, they proceed to do the most generic and boring mundane shit you've seen 20 times before. No imagination on display at all.

You realize all of this applies exactly the same to any Resident Evil, too, right?

Evil Within actually made it more unique by delving into psychology / mental illness and focusing on confusing the player

More like Resident Evil Within.

EW1 is what RE6 should have been, it pretty much feels like a Resident Evil reboot. Has some flaws with gameplay and story, but that applies to ALL Resident Evil games and EW1 surpasses most of them.

EW2 then takes the game and turns it into a whole new thing of its own. IMO that robbed it of what made EW1 fun to me, making it worse than EW1, but it's understandable if people enjoy EW2 more.

I'd highly recommend people to play both games. Definitely ignore the recommendations to skip either.

(before covid) Today population density is far higher and it's much easier to travel across the planet, right? Hell, many businesses strongly depend on it.

Also, we're as far with vaccines and cures as we had been 100 years ago: covid has none and won't have vaccs until 2022. There are no effective treatments for covid and overloaded hospitals would put as back to the same situation of no medical systems again.

Now people keep making protests against the governments that spread covid like wildfire. You act like people get isolated now, but people go to work with covid while infective or else they won't get paid. In fact, in case of covid you don't even realize you're infected and infective.

Spanish flu had a short incubation period, while covid incubation is extremely long and you're infective during it.

So what advantages do we have in this covid outbreak that we didn't have during the spanish flu? The lower death rate of the virus? The infectivity is far higher so that balances it out.
