    No they literally made it extremely clear they were talking about their situation specifically. They didn't say "pc gaming is worse than console gaming," they said console gaming works better for them because of their specific situation. You PC gaming evangelists are so funny :)

    I understand the arguments you're making and the logic behind them. I just completely disagree. It's a really bad take and your anology about cancer is not even a remotely relatable situation. I'm just going to assume you're trolling and move on.

    Good little write-up. I was just thinking along these lines today. It's a real shame Biden didn't try just a little harder to connect with the working class.

    Yes, I would die trying to save children even if I wasn't armed at all let alone it being the job I was fucking trained for. You are a disgusting coward. Fuck off with this shit.

    You're getting down voted by pcmr bros. Totally fine to just want the ease of using a console for the reasons you mentioned among many others.

    I live in the country and my next door neighbor has two trucks that he alternates commuting 40 minutes into the city for a job that doesn't require a truck. Never see them used for anything else. That just oozes smart to me.

    "Probably 95% of the time I don't need a truck, but when I need it, I need it."

    This was the exact rationale I used to justify not getting a truck. I liked the idea of having a truck and being able to use it to move etc. but the fact that a smaller more economical vehicle would suit my needs 95 percent (more like 98-99.5 for me realistically) of the time swayed me in the other direction. I paid a good 30 percent less for the vehicle I have now and it gets 40mpg so I'll save thousands in gas over the life of the vehicle.

    I'm currently watching it for the first time and the flash-forwards just started happening and I'm kinda losing interest. Worth watching the rest of should I just stop now? The first 2-3 seasons were pretty great tho.

    I guess ymmv with red dragon, but the one mouse I had from them broke after like 2 hours of use. Normal clicking and the right mouse button just split in half. Figured it was just really cheap plastic or something.

    Yes this is generally true but I don't feel like it's fair to the colleges/universities who work to keep tuition and tuition increases in check. There are lots of decent public universities that have more reasonable tuition. The public university in my smallish city is about 10k a year for in-state. Not necessarily saying that's ideal for everyone or cheap but it's a far cry from these places pushing it to 40, 60, 100+k a year.

    Right, but are we supposed to muster up sympathy for people who follow influencers getting fatigued from following influencers? Really not trying to be snarky just curious

    Dealing with airports and flying is a miserable experience but is unfortunately the best way overall to travel overseas/very long distances (obviously highly dependent on where in the world you are located/where you are traveling to). I avoid flying except for maybe a trip every five years where there really isn't another viable alternative. High ticket costs, crowded aitports, TSA, all the waiting with delays in boarding, taxi'ing, de-boarding etc. really just make the juice not worth the squeeze for me.

    You might be right I just personally kinda had the hard opposite reaction to TB. Just thought it was such a neat and mystifying little side story. Just enriched the universe for me. But I love hearing different takes because it's all just fun

    I feel like the people who think of steam as a small/indie company have that impression because it's not public and is shockingly uncontroversial for a company its size (at least in terms of revenue).

    I saw a lot of comments saying that Trump would be able to slink out of having to pay most/all of the damages in the E. Jean Carroll case. Can anyone comment on whether or not he will be able to do the same in this case or will it be more difficult for him to get out of paying?
