    Activision-Blizzard Thread: Just announced the Layoffs of 1900 jobs.

    Heck, they are still running UO and EverQuest and neither of those have nearly the player base WoW currently does, even after the mass Exodus of players over the last couple of years.

    I have acquired a fleet of obsolete iPads. What do?

    Eh, start building an LCARS interface for your home network. Just don't connect them to the EPS conduits. That's a surefire recipe to have rocks fall all over your living room the minute a bird hits a window.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Trandoshans and Wookies also have a long and bloody relationship with each other.

    They did. That's why the new Wing Commander game is called Squadron 42 and the new Privateer is called Star Citizen.

    Activision-Blizzard Thread: Just announced the Layoffs of 1900 jobs.

    Their mascots were part of a co-publishing deal with Universal Interactive Studios that ended when Vivendi bought out Universal. Just realized Microsoft now owns Sierra's back catalog. Maybe we can get the classic Sierra adventure games on Gamepass. They already run on modern machines through...

    Activision-Blizzard Thread: Just announced the Layoffs of 1900 jobs.

    It's not the studios MS is after, it's the IP, it's always the IP with them. The studios, if they are good, are just a bonus. They just got their hands on Warcraft, CoD and Candy Crush, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo etc. Heck, they can finally make Pitfall: Raid of the Uncharted Tomb.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Which is why we should just grant all said nations NATO status. Putin will continue to be a bad actor until someone with teeth actually stands up to him.

    Anti-Semitism

    Racism alone is bad enough. Combine it with conspiratorial thinking and religious fundamentalism and it's a recipe for absolute disaster.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Don't have that issue here, but then again every other farm out here seems to specialize in chicken.(Makes me miss the farms in the areas outside of the city I grew up in which were all soybean, corn and cotton. Industrial chicken farms have a SMELL that tends to linger even AFTER you've passed...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Our grocery shelves are pretty full(or were, the threat of snow and ice caused a bit of panic buying the past 2 days). They were pretty rough in parts of 2021 and 2020, though.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Could have simply been the clan he was with. It's possible other clans within the tribe survived.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    They blew the action sequence budget on the train scene last episode. Actually liked the repulsor Vespas, but then again I enjoy ridiculous vehicles in general. It was also a bit of an homage to the mod scene that used similar scooters with similar outlandish modifications in real life.

    Not sure if Russia would, either. Depends on who said fascist dictator is

    Why did I think he died back in the 90's?

    Ghostbusters General

    Well, he was mostly dead, up untill Gozer returned. He probably performed some ritual so that he'd come back to life upon Gozer's return, though you have to wonder if he woke up back in 84 too, or if he simply knew that attempt would fail.

    Congressional expulsion doesn't require the justice department. Theres just too many loyal republicans to do it.

    It will be a lot messier if it happens again. We are essentially talking about rural vs urban instead of slave-holding vs non slave-holding. The lines simply aren't so clearly drawn this time. I'm in a deep red area of a reliably blue state, for instance.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Conspiracy to invalidate an election by sitting members of congress really should be investigated to the full extent of the law and ANY member involved should be expelled, but it won't happen due to the Dem's wanting so bad to be civil.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    It's still technically a conspiracy, an actual, factual real one, if that's what happened. Real conspiracies happen all the time, they just don't have some giant, world dominating scope that the conspiracy theorists love.
