it gets harder for the media to pretend that any of the also-rans are relevant to the race.
Do you mean the Republicans? As far as I could tell, the major networks basically ignored the Democrat hopefuls
Primarily because if courts admit it's fallible, everyone convicted in part on bite evidence would need to be retried. Which would be a crazy amount of work. And people are lazy. Epically courts.
That's what happens when you try to say eight things in two sentences.
Given that dumb requirement, I think they did a decent job.
There is a long history of law enforcement not taking threats of violence seriously, when they come from white conservative groups.
The Secrete Service might. As far as I know they take all threats to the president as pretty serious. But that only helps the president, not the rest of us.
You're making a lot of assumptions. People can go without many things you may think are basic.
Those 30yo people buying PS5s may be living with their parents because they can't begin to afford their own place. Maybe they have 5 roommates who all pooled their savings for 6 months to buy it together. Maybe they simply don't have a car.
There's also the obvious selection bias of being in a Game Stop. You won't see all the people who can't afford a game console shopping there.
To me it's quite staggering that someone who considers themselves "Well Off" can't afford an occasional $500 expense. That's generally considered "Living Paycheck to Paycheck". I can only assume you're overspending in some ways.
It always strikes me as strange when anyone refers to their 30 or 40+ year old offspring, as children. They aren't remotely children in any way.
The first and third are just features that will almost certainly come eventually. No worries.
The second strikes me as a really strange expection for public social media. Social media is inherently not at all private. These are all public comments and posts intended for everyone in the world to read. If you have something you don't want to be public, any social media is the last place to post it.
Because manufacturing the physical copy is a very small part of the expense in creating the game. It also has no practical effect on a players enjoyment or likeliness to purchase the game.
I get it. If I was looking at that seating chart, I'd be thinking:
"Screw it. If I have to sit in the front, I'm going to sit in The front."
The attention based, advertisement business model is the "original sin" of the internet. If you're not paying for the product, you are the product. You are what's being sold. It changes all the incentives for the site. It's why social media and news media have become so toxic and polarizing.
It's why Reddit has made every one of it's unpopular decisions. It made them, to create a better product for it's customers (advertisers), not because it makes a better experience for us. If we want the best site for us, we need to be the customer. That means we need to be the ones who pay for it.
This is absolutely, undeniably a bad idea.
When browsing the frontpage or a community, you can choose between the following sort types for posts:
How was this guy a mayor?
Trump has a decades long history of not paying his debts. I assumed all his lawyers would insist on payment in full first.
