For that kind of money you could just get a Playstation bait

All the stuff Snowden leaked about the US government owning everyone’s shit has been suppressed in favour of pro-US propaganda about China maybe doing the same thing, without any real publicly provided evidence.

If you borrow a DVD from the library for free you don’t need to pay for whatever streaming service is holding that particular film hostage, if it’s even available at all. And if it’s a Blu-ray Disc it will have better picture quality than a compressed stream. Making copies is also very easy if you have a computer with a drive, and doesn’t require paying for a VPN to avoid facing the risks of online piracy.

Is this what a millennial midlife crisis looks like? Obviously we don’t have boomer money, so buying a sports car is out of the question.

It’s a perfectly nice game smothered under a terrifyingly exploitative business model. If you have trouble with addiction or gambling it’s best to skip it entirely, but if you can safely avoid those elements and like open world fantasy action RPGs then it’s worth a go.

Don’t worry, like most ChatGPT attempts at analysis it’s very surface-level and never goes into enough depth or detail on anything.

I receive a lot of AI-written emails and reports and they are almost always terribly unprofessional. AI writing is competent on a purely surface level and only if you quickly skim-read and move on to something else. But if you need real information or specific details AI writing is usually incoherent and an insulting waste of time.

Absolutely. The Yakuza/Judgement/Like a Dragon games reuse maps and animations like TV shows reuse sets and locations and there is nothing wrong with this.

The only thing either are good for is money laundering and cheating on schoolwork. They’ve made life easier for thieves and liars and the rest of us just have to fucking put up with it as if this is the price of progress. The luddites were right, these machines need to be broken.

Like buttons and complex sorting algorithms are the building blocks of addictive social media skinner boxes and are inherently exploitative. They are a relatively recent phenomenon in the history of the internet, and we would be better off without them.

We should have gotten rid of upvotes back when we got rid of downvotes. Both are toxic.
