I was also railing on it before it was released. Now I get why all those pokemon were cut. It's the best pokemon game yet, I hope they build off of it.

Is Yellow's argument that children of politicians can't have jobs?
My argument is that a Ukraine gas company shouldn't be allowed to funnel $50k a month to Biden's son while Biden is vice president advising Ukraine on their infrastructure.

That's legal, that's also called a loophole.

See, you make the mistake of defending bus segregation guy because you hate Trump more. I have no clue why some people still trust either side of the senate. Trump is wrong about everything he ever says, and Biden is also a piece of shit.

He has every right to accept money from a company he was working for. This has absolutely nothing to do with Trumps corruption and abuse of power.


Well that's like an opinion bro, just be aware that Biden takes much corporate pact money back home publicly, typically stands in favor of health insurance, pharma, weapon manufacturers, so the idea of him doing it internationally while his son is taking money from a Ukrainian gas company is not far-fetched.

Kind of like how a pedophile can go to a child's playground to just sit back and relax.

Yes Trump is also corrupt.

It's amazing the hoops the DNC will jump through to defend Biden. Just having to listening to the hearing on the TV at my work gives me second-hand hemorrhoids.

I like how this whole thing is about Trump's obtaining information on Joe's corruption "through foreign affairs"

Uhhh

Joe took their bribes in the first place. Trump goes to them about what they did, and he's meddling internationally.

If the DNC wasn't also a mafia they would prosecute him for Trump's Saudi bribed weapon deals. Or basically anything they aren't also guilty of. It would be extremely damaging to Trump's career.

But yeah, if the Republicans didn't exist, no one would like the Democrats. I like Democrat voters, but the politicians are jokes.

USB 2.0 max bitrate: 60 MBps
4k bitrate: 35-45 Mbps
USB 3.0 max bitrate: 640 MBps

You are probably limited by whatever flash drive you are using. Just because it's USB 3.0 doesn't mean the flash storage read speed is high. Your average SSD read speed is 540 Mbps. That doesn't come close to the max speed for USB 3.0.

It could also be any various problem with your TV, their focus in development is probably not making sure users can play 4k videos from thumb drives.

You can either buy a better USB (and see if that works), copy the file over to your smart TV's local storage (will probably work), or play it over the internet (will probably work). I recommend setting up a Plex media server. Much cleaner.

If you don't want to do that, try saving your videos as different formats. Your TV might have an easier time playing mp4 files over... some other format.

But people aren't satisfied with 400 pokemon when they want 800, and that's totally possible. Some people have favorite pokemon, that's half their favorite pokemon being cut.

And there's no good reason from a development perspective. Literally just copy and paste the models and data they already have. Polish slightly where needed with ~20 designers and the millions of dollars of profit.

People aren't in the wrong about being unhappy.

Nope.

There's a certain spectacle to a school shooting that the media cannot resist, given the general age of the victims in what should be a safe environment, but they're far from the only mass shootings (workplace/night clubs/concerts/etc) and even further from the only shootings that get reported, though I will concede that higher body counts get a signal boost nationally


Yes but only spree shootings are reported because they're vastly more exciting.

Just the homicides in Chicago cover more than double the homicides of spree shootings in the entire united states in a year, a vast majority done over drug violence.

Then there's the countless body count of the meaningless Middle East wars that only exists because the war industry is a huge part of our economy.

Both of those are direct results of the government. I find the whole outrage basically zoomed in on spree killings disproportionate and biased. They're like the favorite sibling that scraped her knee getting all the attention.

What makes you think people only want to prevent shootings at schools, and no where else?
That's the only thing that gets people excited, so I assume yes.

But I want to see people getting pissed off that the government isn't taking the problem of the ghetto very seriously. A semi-automatic ban/mental health evaluation won't do much in the ghetto, those ideas have specifically spree shooters in mind.

End the drug war, put dealers out of business, dump some money into Chicago and create some economic opportunities for the lower class, something. Ending the drug war would also cut off a huge source of revenue for the Mexican cartel that just out-gunned the Mexican government. I want to see people in the streets over that, not spree shooters.

Still don't get why people give this so much attention.

38 in a year? So out of 300 million people, white boys, 38 of them snapped.

Holy shit, my mind is blown. That seems about as unavoidable as a chemical reaction. Imagine if people cared as much about the wars, where exponentially more innocent people die because of our government.

Or the ghetto, where poor uneducated fatherless and violent men murder each other with handguns on a daily basis, making the areas a terrifying third world.

Or people dying from lack of healthcare every day in the united states.

You just have to completely ignore math to put this at the top of your list, which people do. :/ I guess people are more concerned about their own 1/1,000,000 chance to die than a stranger's 1/4.

I guess we have to own them Republicans, but they've done much worse.

So, having 600 in a portable is fine but 800 on a console is impossible? How?
As a programmer, let me explain why this is nonsense.

They all already have animations, the vast majority of them have walking animations and high res 3D models. They all only needed to be improved slightly and copy/pasted over.

Their excuse is bullshit, because they didn't add any animations, they literally just had to copy/paste them.

Their 3D models + animations + textures don't take up much space at all. I'd bet the entirety of their data takes up less than 50 MB.

And it's nothing a team of about 20 graphic designers can't update either. GF can afford it, and 800/20 = 40 pokemon per designer... I think we could have gotten those extra pokemon in.

I have no idea why this was botched, aside from many things in the series just being poorly thought out. Masuda is basically George Lucas, a genius that needs to be reeled in. Or there's nothing wrong, and he needs more time to make his games.

The funniest part about that "backup" system is if your 3DS breaks you lose every pokemon inside of pokebank due to the bank being tied to your physical 3DS.
