  • In this case they’re trying to sue the government itself which has sovereign immunity, not qualified. Congress passed a law that allowed some channels past that sovereign immunity but the courts have been very conservative as to how it’s interpreted. That’s the federal torts claims act. One of the key things it doesn’t cover is intentional torts. So if someone though negligence hit you in the mouth and knocked the teeth out, you can sue. If, by contrast, they did it through malice and battery you cannot but you can break through their personal qualified immunity if you could prove malice. Good luck



  • I don’t think the console market is okay for a variety of reasons. This particular issue however, not being able to publish whatever the fuck you want under someone else’s brand, is very much not high on them. The other reasons, the anticompetitive nature of the industry, is what makes it a problem. Most certainly not someone deciding they don’t want their product marketed with fucking around with corpses.

    And relieving the developers of the agency of their own vision is specious. They made a decision. Obviously this new direction is within what they’re trying to deliver or they wouldn’t be doing it. The most salient point here is that the amount of changes they seem to be making are negligible. Dismemberment of living people fine, dismemberment of corpses gone. They claim they’ve preserved their vision through limited changes. Everybody else is playing like the loss of that is a fundamental betrayal. It’s fucking ridiculous.







  • They often keep that shit in tanks outside, particularly depleted(figuring out what to do with depleted uranium hexafluoride is often a challenge and the US has a truly staggering amount of full tanks just sitting around waiting to leak). Once it hits air you get hydrofluoric acid gas which will spread thanks to the explosion and will kill you in small concentrations(as low as 30 ppm). It’s awful and blowing it up to spread it everywhere is even more awful. The only thing worse would be bombing a purex plutonium reprocessing plant. That is just as toxic in different ways but you can make the tanks go prompt critical thanks to changing it’s geometry and it has actual fission products you can spread around. Those reprocessing plants were a main plank in how north Korea got their bomb.
