While I agree with your characterization of g*mers, $59.99 in 2013 is $86.30 adjusted for inflation, so $79.99 is actually less than the price of GTA 5.

I took like a 15 year break from video games and picked up a used Xbox One, having no idea about the controversy surrounding its launch. Xbox essentially did the same thing with its console, killing used game sales, allowing PS 4 to come out on top by saying that you could resell PS 4 games. Now we’re dealing with the same issue, but at the developer level.

There is no evidence the Chinese embassy or Chinese government was behind the evacuation.

Love how that’s just thrown in there, early in the article before they even described the details of the incident.

It’s rarely two 9-5 M-F jobs that add up to 40 hours a week.

It’s usually a combination of a primary job that is just below the threshold of full time and therefore doesn’t qualify for basic benefits like health insurance, paid time off, or retirement <32 hours.

Usually the second job is in the evening and weekends. Service jobs, retail, etc. Often the schedule varies wildly and changes often.

Typically both jobs are paid hourly and can end at any time.

A lot of people work much more than 40 hours per week, but don’t have the security of a full time, salaried job.

Because we love it when the King of Burgerland waves to us from his royal balcony.

This is the climax of capitalism and politics reaching their peak at the same time.

The President of America waving from a McDonalds drive through! As American as apple pie!

John Bolton is a fictional character made by the CIA for Amazon Prime Video.

Or at least that’s what I’m going to tell my kids anyway…

u/NightlyGravy 8h ago I think in this case ideology is the driving factor. On both sides of the debate.
