i would suggest getting spotify premium, really helps solve the music problem.

it sucks to have to use itunes to transfer music from the PC but ive never really had an issue with it unless the music is a file type the iphone doesnt support (like FLAC).

TopicWhy not turn all US prisons into zoos?
Romulox28

think about it:

1. US has the highest lockup rate in the world
2. Everyone loves the zoo

So now we have all these people in cages and we're doing nothing with them. they just sit in there for 25 to life.

now how about this, we turn each prison into a public Prisoner Zoo where families can come to see the prisoners, learn about their crimes, feed them snacks, etc.

It's a win-win situation:

Win for Families: they get a new place to go that is likely in their neighborhood, they get to educate their families on various lifestyles and learn about prisoners, and it might even be a good learning experience for kids

Win for Prisoners: they get lots of people visiting them so they don't get lonely, they get fed snacks, and they get to interact with regular people, which will help when they are eventually released back into society and need to re-adjust

What do you guys think?

I have a friend who makes ~$100k/yr and smokes weed daily. He's very professional and has his life together even better than I do, and I have literally never smoked weed.

(he's never high at work, smokes at night)

people like this are the exception, not the rule. i used to smoke weed A LOT and it was a fairly negative influence in my life

imo if you are making this about a God giving you weird visions, you should really create a more unreal atmosphere rather than dawn vs night

id do a blood moon like from bloodborne, or some kind of eclipse, so your area is either bathed in red light or that weird light yet still dark at the same time thing you get with an eclipse.

when i think of a god speaking i think of something like the burning bush from the Bible, where God is showing his power in an unreal sense. if you make it a more "normal" scene you dont really get the full scope of the power or reach of this God in your game

TopicSo.... Samsung and Apple have crossed the $1k phone threshold
Romulox28

This really bugs me because ultimately smartphones are pretty disposable.

If you're on an Android phone your phone will eventually start to slow down, if you're on an iPhone (or Android with no SD card slot) your phone will eventually run out of storage, and for all phones the batteries are becoming nearly impossible to replace and only last for so long. You get like two years out of a phone, 3 tops.

This would be fine if phone makers were making phones for all price points, so if you have tons of disposable income you can buy a new $1k phone every 2 years, or with a lower budget a nice $300 phone.

However I don't see that many options. I'm on Verizon and besides Motorola, nobody is making any quality low-end CDMA phones. You're either stuck with buying a Motorola phone, some obscure Chinese phone that's probably loaded with spyware, or getting an old flagship phone that is very out-dated (like a Galaxy S5).

It sucks. I think the only reason people aren't complaining and fucking up this model is that carriers finance phones for people in the US and bundle the cost with an already high wireless bill, so people don't realize how much they're paying since they're used to being fucked over by carriers already

im having a lot of fun with the game so far. played like an hour and a half. shooting feels really good. I really missed bungie shooters, they just feel tight.

story so far seems to be typical Bungie garbage where it's just a bunch of vague concepts with very general names starting with "the" (The Traveler / The Arbiter / The Flood / The Light / The Crucible / etc etc etc) strung together (The Guardian must get The Light from The Traveler so you can defeat The Legion). thankfully you can skip all the cutscenes

didnt the federal govt in nazi germany nationalize all the industries? isnt the government seizing the means of production kind of the whole point of the ideology


The people who are saying Nazis are socialist don't actually understand what socialism is. They just think socialism is bad so they tie one of the worse groups in history with socialism, because they had socialism in their name. This way they can pretend to be on the right side while being perfectly okay with the rising white nationalist and neo nazis in their party by saying at least they aren't socialist.

ok but you're not answering my question lol

probably because this has been the absolute worst gen for video games, next to maybe the NES era

Ps1/n64/Saturn gen was significantly worse. We only remember the highlights, but there was a significant amount of dog shit for it. Games have gotten consistently better, we just have nostalgia goggles on.

the thing is that back then there were a lot of absolute shit games, but there were also a handful of classics that changed gaming forever. Zelda OoT and MM, Mario 64, Metal Gear Solid, FF7 and 9, etc.

nowadays most big games are average and acceptable but not great. Only games that I think people would consider classics this gen are maybe Witcher 3 (I didn't care for it but see why people love it), Dark Souls 3, and Bloodborne.

the rest are games that are flashy and cool but ultimately forgettable or not "great" (like Uncharted 4 or Fallout 4) or games where they're amusing to play but as soon as the next version comes out they're obsolete (yearly installments of Battlefield, Mortal Kombat, etc).

i would never say witcher 3 is a bad game by any means, but i thought the combat was just ok and i thought the story moved ridiculously slow. i put a good 60 hours or so into the game and the story did not change a single bit in any important way from when i first started.

Yeah I was gutted when the Hound died, he was my favorite character..

I'm not completely oblivious. I know he lives.

As you've probably seen from the character Beric Dondarrion (the dude The Hound killed in Season 3 who got brought back from the dead), not everyone who dies stays dead. Just sayin.

Glad you're enjoying the show. It stays good, and even though I have complaints about Season 7 and think it's a drop in quality, it's still the best show on TV now imo

I'm aware. I know this happens to Jon Snow as well. Some of the show was unavoidably spoiled for me.

not just talking about jon snow. but if it makes you feel better, the whole thing with jon snow being brought back from the dead was pretty predictable by GoT standards. for certain reasons you'll see, everyone kind of saw it coming

Lol wut. It's not a huge cliche for a disgruntled father to hatch a plan to turn the heroes against each other and ultimately succeed in the end. The last discussion with the guy and Black Panther was amazing

the villain sets up an extremely complex and seemingly unpredictable series of events that involve controlling a Soviet Union sleeper agent and assassinating a major world leader, all with the goal of getting Iron Man to fly out to Sibera so he can watch a VHS tape. It's insane. The dude could have just fucking emailed the video to Iron Man and it would have had the same fucking effect without making Zemo into an international terrorist.

it's pretty obvious that the entire movie exists for one reason, to set up the fight in the airplane hanger. the rest of it is full of nonsensical arguments, gaping plot holes, and cliches taken to the extreme ("it was all part of my plan!" and "there's no time to explain!").
