I used to get breakfast at BK pretty regularly. Their coffee is actually pretty good. IIRC they use Seattle's Best.

The longer Bernie doesn’t release his tax returns the more I think that he is hiding some shady shit in them. His excuse for not doing so yet is trash.

Burger King restaurants here are just serving regular ass coffee. Doesn‘t taste that different from the stuff you get at a bakery here you just don‘t have to wait for 10 minutes Cheap coffee and shitposting on the Bire is all I need on my commute.

What do I do?! Every single last member of my family is more than willing to go and close out our accounts after 20 years of being with them. Being treated this way after 20 years stings so hard.
You need to be recording EVERY conversation. I do this for every single banking/CS call I do. I even record the entire process when I buy a car, or do anything where the other party could take advantage of a situation.Recently threatened TD bank with a lawsuit and provided them with copies of my recordings with their CS agent that didn't do what they said. They reversed course VERY quickly.
i think i had one of those during season 7.
South Carolina law provides that it is a felony to record an in-person or telephone conversation without the consent of at least one party. Illegal recording can also give rise to civil liability.

California Under California law, it is a crime punishable by fine and/or imprisonment to record a confidential conversation without the consent of all parties, or without a notification of the recording to the parties via an audible beep at specific intervals. The California Supreme Court has defined a confidential conversation as one in which the parties have a reasonable expectation that no one is listening in or eavesdropping. In addition to criminal penalties, illegal recording can also give rise to civil damages.
this is funny but inappropriate. edit it out or you will getting quoted for the next 2 days. i bet some folks have already reported you.
"sniggering"?

User Banned (1 Week): Stereotyping of a languageI wonder how the idea for this collaboration came about. Did one of the indie devs throw the idea out there on a whim not expecting it to go anywhere, and then Miyamoto turned out to be a fan of CotND and said "Hell yes" (only it would be in Japanese, so like, "Hellfu yesfu").
Rami is one of the smartest people in the industry. He’s more than right.I won’t feel bad when Steam is gone.
Quote from: A.ByThe exact opposite of competition is when a large entity manipulates the situation to the result of no one being able to compete with them. Valve is not small, Valve is not powerless. Companies paying for exclusivity is a very normal thing, and doing so requires that Valve create greater incentives for people to not migrate away from Steam.So you're suggesting that Valve pay publishers and developers for exclusivity? Because that's the only reason pubs and devs are signing up for timed EGS exclusivity. It's not about revenue share, curation or discoverability. If those were the reasons, these wouldn't be timed exclusives. They'd be permanent. Timed exclusives only occur when Company A gives Company B a large sum of money to hurt Company A's competitors. This is not a practice anyone should be condoning. It doesn't help consumers, it only hurts them.

Quote from: A.ByBut the alternative is that consumers only reasonably have Valve to turn to. That isn't healthy for their base, especially when the lack of competition is likely one cause of why Valve feels so complacent as to have basically zero content curation.Valve doesn't force any publisher or developer to use Steam. They never have. Publishers and developers chose to use Steam because that's what the majority of consumers want. Why? Because Steam is objectively the best distribution platform on PC. It has the most features (for both developers and customers), the best selection and the best sales.All this talk about curation is incredibly short-sighted. There was a time when Steam was highly curated. Guess what happened? Small indie devs complained that it was too hard to get on Steam. So Valve added the Greenlight system which let users vote on what games should be on Steam. Guess what happened? Smaller indie devs still complained that it was too hard to get on Steam. So Steam said "screw it" and just let all developers on Steam. This doesn't affect 99% of customers, as the trash-tier games won't appear on any of their lists. However, gaming journalists seem to have a fetish for searching for offensive/garbage games on Steam and then writing angry articles about them. Jim Sterling made a living from it. The term "outrage culture" is a controversial one but is perfectly apt to describe how the gaming media treats Steam.Epic's "curation" just means that small indie devs won't be able to sell their games on EGS. This isn't limited to trash-tier games either. It means that any game arbitrarily deemed unworthy won't make the cut. Games like Undertale or Pony Island, for example, would likely never appear on EGS simply because of their low-budget presentation.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Dismissing Concerns on Bigotry as "Outrage Culture" and Inflammatory False Equivalences Over a Series of Posts; History of Severe InfractionsQuote from: A.ByIt is not outrage culture to show just how frequently awful games get through. Valve couldn't even prevent a game called "Kill the taco" from being put on Greenlight.Also, the fact that Valve curated too much is not a defense of the fact that they now curate too little.The issue is that people are pretending that the lack of curation actually affects their Steam experience. It doesn't. You actively have to look for the crappy/offensive games and if you're doing that, you want to be offended. If you use Steam like an actual user, it will never show you said crappy/offensive games.

Sensitive ThreadsA clothing store for the woke.
Man, Finale Fireworker's post yesterday hit home this morning. Dad talked about how awful Nancie P was last night on the phone, heard Bill Spadea on 101.5 and hate listened, dealing with old friends blaming gov't workers for now having 2 paychecks worth of savings and "Democrats are Lunatics". Go on Era, see thread about 13, 14 year old girls being "aggressors" in sexual assault case, thread on tax return battle and I was exhausted before getting in the fucking door today at work. It's a mental load. Of course, the Gaming side isn't any better lol.

It was a terrible time to be informed on the internet; I remember the approval ratings for the invasion were off the charts, in the 90% arena IIRC. The evidence was blatant, well documented by international and domestic sources (not conspiracy sites), etc... yet most of the country was bloodthirsty. I'd make threads on forums with tons of facts laid out and would get crickets; people all over talking about "glassing the middle east" and whatnot.Where I worked there were people watching bombs go off on web streams and laughing; it was like 40+ year old guys doing this. I walked up to them (as the youngest employee at the company) and said "Wow, watching potentially thousands of people die, that's pretty messed up." Everyone I worked with spent half their happy hours talking about how cool MOABs sounded, etc. And this was in Seattle.A few years later and everyone acted like they were against the war from the start; really fueld my apathy for discussing politics, as I'd spent years exhausting a lot of energy trying to convicne people.. only to have them wait for the mainstream media to start questioning things then prerens like they always were at least skeptical.. but it was all surface level crap.. nobody actually cared enough to do anything about it, and we re-elected Bush.
lol, wasn't jerking off over it.. was remarking how distrubing the time wasKnew that would get posted here but expected benjisales.

I wonder if this triggers Sanders and Beto getting their own minority VPs before the first debate
