The moment someone unholsters a weapon and points it is the moment they signal that they intend to shoot. So fuck you. You're a bad cop

That cop is a giant cunt who needs to be fired, if you're going to pull your weapon on someone because they used the words "he's going to shoot me" and then argue with that person for 5 minutes while you have your gun in their face, maybe you don't deserve to be a police officer.

Check that cop's computer and I bet you find 8chan in his browser history. Fucking disgraceful. How many people have been killed under circumstances like this?

Yep, middle aged police officers are 8chans core demographic. I also hear he is a BenjiSales twitter follower but I guess that applies to almost everyone on the internet now he has 3000.

[daemon]

that cop is quite the piece of shit tho. if you-re flashing someone's eyes like that, the least you can do is hold your firearm not pointing directly. it looks like you're looking for a gesture to be able to shoot him down. just lower your fucking pistol, you already have 100% clear vision of what he's doing with that flashlight.

Absolutely. Just not maybe. You just don't deserve to be a police officer. I understand the risks on being a police officer in the US, but come on... this was way too stupid.

Umm, who is this Somerset poster, and why have I never read their work before!?

Indeed, I hate to say it, but it is a prime sign of a dribbler when said dribbler claims a problem is unique to his/her age.

Ok

The problem today is that people who have passed thru useless universal education (the fabian program of compulsory schooling for all)

Umm

What we are really talking about is a *religious* mechanism rather than an intellectual mechanism

Err...

That's pretty rich coming from the Mecca of manchildren who wallow in consumerist "fake nerd" trash like Marvel movies and treadmill of the generic latest AAA games (don't forget the sales numbers!). The way the people on ResetEra behave it reminds me Leigh Alexander's "Gamers are Over" article.

It's young men queuing with plush mushroom hats and backpacks and jutting promo poster rolls. Queuing passionately for hours, at events around the world, to see the things that marketers want them to see. To find out whether they should buy things or not. They don't know how to dress or behave. Television cameras pan across these listless queues, and often catch the expressions of people who don't quite know why they themselves are standing there.

While ResetEra is overloaded with braindead media consumers placated by the opiate of the masses, they lack any of the intellectual or constructive aspects of nerd culture. They're not creating anything, they're not talking about creating anything. They'd much rather cry about Elon Musk doing <LITERALLY ANYTHING> or how <MAJOR TECH COMPANY> is refusing to deplatform <PERSON I DON'T LIKE>.

The funny thing is when Leigh Alexander wrote that editorial for Gamasutra, she was already running a PR agency that was focused on indie games that didn't cater to the dude bro crowd. IMO, she (actually, her bosses at Gamasutra) should have disclosed that she wasn't just writing an editorial as a staff member of Gamasutra, but also trying to drum up business for her PR/consulting firm that she was running at the time (Agency).

This Vice article that reads like a puff piece for Tale of Tales in 2013.

The kickstarter for Sunset was created/started on June 17th, listing Alexander as part of the consulting team (we found out later, it was for PR).

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/taleoftales/sunset-a-first-person-videogame-thriller/updates (started June 17th, 2014)

    Leigh Alexander & Ste Curran have recently started an initiative called Agency to help game studios bring their ideas to fruition. In Sunset they undertake the significant effort of keeping us on the straight and narrow, making sure that our game does in fact reach the people we are creating it for.

The article for the Gamers are Over editorial is dated August 28th, 2014. So she was already running her consulting/PR firm for Tale of Tales.

https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/224400/Gamers_dont_have_to_be_your_audience_Gamers_are_over.php
But if you check her current website, there's no mention of Agency. http://leighalexander.net/

Edrick Truitt claimed he was parked Sunday just after 3 a.m. at a closed Double Quick store to meet up with family before heading home to Jonesboro.

"As we were leaving out, a car jumped in front of me, so I hit my brakes to let them go by," Truitt said.

"Nothing suspicious, just waiting for my family in a parking lot at 3am with a firearm in the back seat. Also, another car just sped off in front of me."

In his famous book Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Edward Gibbon makes a compelling case that Romes crumbles as falsa cultura nerdi gets introduced through the Fabian strategy (for instance the famous pamphlet Hannibal versus Enée) for Propaganda purposes and steadily increased its popularity from there. The works of famous scholar Iordi Ni about the lesser genetic intelligence of Barbarians also offer an insight on how the mighty have possibly fallen.

I don't know about other people but the one I had was definitely different. I'm used to the sauce being too salty, the sauce tastes way better now. Not sure if the cheese has improved but it seemed thicker and they were a bit more generous with it this time. The crust however isn't really like the original pan pizza IMO... it's closer? But they also undercooked mine a little. It's still crispy, but not enough.

Honestly, it's a good enough improvement that they should really just keep the pan pizzas like this and not make it "limited time".

Yes, but also Amazon should be required to keep all of their facilities at least 100 lieues away from relevant population centers. That way if their robot slave workers go bezerk there will be time to man the defenses along the city walls.

Also, Amazon should be required to pay a living wage to all North Americans. They won't lose any money because we will also require everyone to purchase their female child size meals, approved mandatory goods and health care through Amazon.
