Yeah, for some it's a crutch that helps them through difficult times so it's not all bad but largely I agree

It seems like a delusion of grandeur. A mental illness.

Israel has dehumanized the people of Palestine for a long time. This is not at all surprising. The western world looks the other way for decades to avoid the uncomfortable truth.

Unpopular opinion but I think the game is in it's best state currently. I spent $40 on 2016 and haven't had to pay a dime since and I'm not playing this PVP game for it's PVE so this stuff doesn't matter to me. Blizzard is a husk of its former self and I'm still bitter about HOTS but am actually having a lot of fun playing comp this season.

All the Republican candidates, except Christie, want to stay in Trump's good graces - they know they can't win if he so much as sneezes at them so they grovel at his feet and just hope he gets disqualified on a technicality.

Wouldn't surprise me if they created this news cycle intentionally to make the point. Upcoming 'election' and all.

I didn't say click random, the point is that there is a ton of content but most people only watch the 0.1% that they pump all the marketing budget into but there are tons of great award winning critically acclaimed shows and movies that people don't bother with, that they would enjoy. I use justwatch.com to filter content.

Sure, it would be great to have access to everything all the time, all I'm saying is that if you have a small amount of discipline and your life isn't crushed by fomo then subscribing to one at a time is sufficient while priced reasonably.

Movies have been very expensive in the short term period after theatrical release, that's why blockbuster would charge $60 if you lost the tape, it's how much they sold to rental stores for before wide release. This higher price is absurd to me but to the studios it's a premium for all the hype they built up, the price will come down after a few months. They are still working out the new models and testing the waters to see what floats.

My bar for their games is high and its been exceeded. I would be happier if it had every feature I can dream up but if I wanted a game that had an infinite scope and an endless development cycle I'd just pay $10k for a ship in star citizen and hope it releases before I die. Thankfully I'm able to enjoy a game made by one of the most lauded and successful video game developers in the world and not be a curmudgeon about it.

Not trying to be a dick, just seems like everyone else is. Don't buy it if you need x feature and it isn't there, maybe they will learn a lesson and make the game you wanted them to next time.

A plane crash can make it easier to claim an alive man is dead as there may not be a body.

I could see this as a means to keep Wagner troops loyalties in check, or just to keep everyone guessing. The most likely scenario though is that Putin did what Putin does which is assassination.
