I think the ratio is up to 43 now, actually.

And Israel bombed Kamal Adwan Hospital again last night, murdering five of the hospital workers there.

Do you still have the actual people that made the games? I’m not talking about the “lead devs”, I’m talking about the actual talent that were responsible for making them.

There was a deadline? What did they set, a 20 year development cycle???

I mean, I agree. But, based on that argument, it’s totally fine if 100% of pre-created MCs are women then, since it’s only the story and universe that are important (and I would be 100% a-ok with that happening).

Unfortunately, they’re instead deciding to double down in every way possible.

I’m posting this one rather than the Washington Post article directly because that one’s behind a paywall. There’s still a link to it in this article if you do have personal access.

Not even a real bet to make. I mean: https://www.lemonde.fr/en/summer-reads/article/2024/09/09/how-the-sound-of-freedom-captivated-trump-s-conspiracy-fueled-base_6725321_183.html

The good thing is that each usage thus far has only been in the narrow strips of hiding trees, so there’s no risk of a large fire breaking out. A lot of the people whining on social media about killing trees are purposefully ignoring that fact.

Yeah, “hit with” has always been bizarre passive voice wording. The executives in charge were the ones who actively decided to lay off people.

I mean, even if it had done well, I feel like they would still be laying people off anyways, just to pad out their end of year revenue presentations.

It’s hilarious that DeSantis praised her two years ago for her great community work for women and now he’s trying to backpedal with “but I didn’t know she was trans”. He really can’t help with his foot in mouth disease on every front.

Goddamn, he’s such a creepy weirdo.

Well, that’s good. Though I have some concerns about how well Krafton is as a manager for such things. Also, didn’t a lot of the developers and other people in Tango already quit before this anyways and went to do other things or joined other studios?

I admit, I wasn’t expecting them to go as far as using “Colored” as a general insult. Do they seriously think this helps Trump’s chances?

Anyone want to bet that he’s going to use the assassination attempt as an argument for essentially saying Democrat politicians should be killed instead because “we’re in a war”?

If Trump doesn’t push that, I feel like Tucker Carlson, who apparently has been picked as a headliner for the convention, likely will.

Not under their new owner, since he’s the one that pushed for the definition change in the first place, among many other blatantly biased changes to the ADL in the past decade.

"Earshot found that with the minimum registered interval of 24 milliseconds, this tank would have to have been positioned just 13 metres away from the car. With the maximum interval of 40 milliseconds, the tank would have still been only 23 metres away from the car. This analysis suggests that the tank had to be positioned within close range (13–23 metres) of the car when it fired the shots that killed Layan. At such proximity, it is not plausible that the shooter could not have seen that the car was occupied by civilians, including children.

Earshot’s audio ballistic analysis supports the final words of Layan Hamada: the gunfire came from a tank that was next to them."

"Comparing the exit hole and varying levels of destruction helps reconstruct the cone of impact from the explosion, and in turn, reveals the direction from which the ambulance was shot (Figure 13). This direction is consistent with the location of Israeli tanks visible in satellite imagery from between 29 January and 8 February.

Our assessment of the position of the tanks at the time of the attack, together with the direction of the shot, suggests that the ambulance was likely hit by ammunition from an Israeli tank."

The issue will be if these temps become standard and consistent over a wider time period. For one, that could adversely affect crop growth and development.

It’s happening across the midwest as well. It’s supposed to hit 102 on Monday in Nebraska.
