I‘m sick of hearing people say this - It‘s exactly what they voted for. What I would prefer to hear them say is WHY they feel they made a mistake. What about Trumps rhetoric then is disconnected from his current deeds?

I suspect the usual reason is that it‘s impacted them personally and they didn‘t think it would. It‘s the reverse of the boy who cried wolf

Tend to agree about DLC - Some times the Devs have too many ideas - DLC is way to manage costs. But only if it expands the game

This is because we feel we paid for something that expects nothing in return.

When you pay for a game that includes add ons and microtransactions, all of a sudden we‘re back to being a marketing target, and we implicitly know we‘re pushed to spend money.

We play games to escape the real world…

One of the comments above said they were the parent carrier offering MVNO services to Trump Mobile.

We’ve already seen how willing companies are to stand up to Trump, even if he is in the wrong.

I’m totally sure T-Mobile or the Credit Card company would be willing to defend this in court…

I suspect this is mainly because almost all of the CEOs I’ve met are workaholics, and being “at work” is the only way they can self-validate.

And remember, most of them are dark-personality traits, which explains why they cannot understand why you don’t want to go in

To do otherwise would require an act of cognitive reasoning. This Cheeto-in-charge isn’t capable of that.

If the Texas floods happened as a result of funding cuts, I guess a US version of Union Carbide in Bhopal is next?

Title unclear: Is he suspended for his ethical violations, or is he the spokesperson for Nethanyahu’s ethical violations?

Either way, they seem well matched

I don’t know why people are surprised by this.its not his first time and we all know he’s never read a book in his life.

Couldn’t agree more. The politicians are only outraged as their donors are pissed. They couldn’t give a shit what happens as long as they get re-elected

Not arguing that. Of the broadcasters / big media types, I find the BBC usually one of the better ones. But then I get my news from a wide variety of sources. The Intercept is generally a very good addition to my daily intake.

 

I was recently gifted an immaculate Apple IIc, but it came without a power supply. I wasn’t able to find a replacement online, and so I am hoping someone with more knowledge than me knows where I may be able to find one?
