The zodiac killer thing was a joke at first. It was focused on the odd way he would talk, comparing mannerisms with that if the zodiac killer.

I’m not aware of it ever being said. But I’ve noticed a lot of conspiracies seem to originate from a joke that others don’t get.

A group of investors including private-equity firm Silver Lake and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund could unveil a deal for the publisher best known for its sports games as soon as next week, WSJ said.

Is there a way to get a list of the top company’s involved? I’m curious who the owners would be. This implies it would mostly be Saudi Arabia, but it isn’t clear.

She left him over trust issues and it’s implied he didn’t have a good alibi for Epstein. We don’t know if Bill actually did anything, but Melinda clearly didn’t trust him in the end. Bill also came across as controlling (not surprising) and she had to just suffer with the lifestyle he chose even when she disagreed.

She clearly cared more about philanthropy for the sake of it than he did. She also was more interested in being modest despite wealth. At least modest for being that rich, I don’t actually know how modest she was/is but she wasn’t into big mega mansions.

Plex hasn’t been getting better, but it still does what I need. I have a lifetime pass from years ago. If I was starting today I would be a lot less inclined to pay for Plex though. They keep adding things I don’t want.

I get what you are saying but everyone is ignoring the human condition. We feel things based on how they are around us in a relative sense.

It doesn’t matter if it is statistically better. Modern times are getting worse for people. Health, privacy, freedom are all declining in America. That is what people see and feel. I’m tired of people acting like we have life horizons that can see centuries.

Chronic health is a real current issue and it absolutely destroys quality of life too.

So yeah, great, best time to be alive. But since I was a kid many things have gotten worse. From health (cost, accessibility) and education to privacy. Maybe we will be much farther ahead in 20 years, but the next 10 are looking grim.

Eh, enough if their content can exist fine without calling anyone out. I don’t think it’s what any of them really want to do, they prefer to focus on games. I feel like they mostly call out individual game performance.

You are right in that their consistency in what they get upset about seems inconsistent. It does feel like it might depend on what company was nice to them recently. But I still think the heart of their content works even with that issue.

Optimized settings was my favorite thing too.

The way they use the term ‘expansion’ in the article confused me. They are just talking about how the free content updates have been moved to be sooner than originally planned. They aren’t taking about DLC or an entire paid expansion.

It’s probably good the content comes out sooner seeing as how many lose interest at the current drip feed if content. I wish they would fix the games actual problems though. Or even just the hardware issues.

Trauma Trauma can easily make it where you can’t stand your own thoughts or how you feel. So anything that augments that can be very attractive.

I’d day mental health too, even if you don’t have known traumas. Major depression, etc. But I know women who can’t relax or aren’t very intimate unless they drink. But as someone with an alcoholic father, alcohol has some big dark sides. Even if you are happy when you drink, it can really mess your brain up.

It would help if there were guarantees you could download via Nintendo servers for X years as long as the company exists. They would never agree, but something like 40 years. Then if the company no longer exists it’s given to the community.

It’s true though, unless something crazy like that became normal, physical games have significantly more value. I do think that the average person cares more about price and convenience today vs whatever happens tomorrow.
