That group dynamic is creepy because it generalises ""people" and put any legitimate opinions on the board of an inner wargame. And I am not saying it's organised, it's spontaneous. But it's creepy for being an archetypal traits of cultist and authoritarian communities, to empower the group spirit with an illusional enemy and reduce anyone perceived like this into a parody.

What's the idea behind concealed carry? To me, the idea that anyone could just be hiding a gun, is scarier than being able to see who has one in their holster (which is also weird, but that's another story).
Is it because it prevents from carrying around larger firearms?

I'm :gbcry and AFAIK we have some of the strictest gun legislation in the world, but there's still a 'concealed weapon' permit with more stringent checks than a regular weapon, because its use is primarily intended for things like security services / private military / discreet armed protection escorts etc.

As a non- :usacry its obviously :mindblown to me that any random joe schmoe can just roam the streets of major cities in full tactical gear while carrying a semi-automatic rifle as much as it is any rando can have a revolver hidden in their sock or the small of their back

Not really. You can be around where you're getting the amount of vbucks back by playing relatively casually at this point, a few weeks into a season that ends in June. People playing on and off while enjoying the game will hit that level without concern far before then. There are a number of ongoing challenges that grant XP for doing almost anything in the game (destroy stone, swim x distance, shotgun kills etc.). Not really seeing the need to have language like "trapped" over it or the need to defend children against it. If they enjoy playing the game, they'll be able to get the next one without any further purchase. If that does lapse (which would imply they've stopped enjoying the game, so debatable if it would be an issue), then it's like $10 for a pass with a large amount of decent cosmetics. The point is more that if it's a game they enjoy, it actually offers the ability to keep up to date with seasonal skins without having to pay more of them.

In the Marvel season that included skins for Thor, Storm, Iron Man/Tony Stark, Groot (+ Rocket), Mystique, Dr. Doom, She-Hulk/Jennifer Walters and Wolverine/Logan ~ with alternate styles too and gliders, back blings and trails for a number of them. All for the price of the battlepass, or nothing if you'd chained from a previous one.

So the UK are planning on "vaccination passports" (ie a phone app and a piece of paper showing you're vaccinated and / or have already had covid or recently been tested negative) for access to high risk of spreading events (indoors enclosed spaces, distancing can't be ensured etc) which has led to this absolute multi post meltdown

:neogaf

This country really, really hates young people, doesn't it?

Rushing so incredibly fast to get Vaccine passports in whilst the vast majority of young folk haven't even been offered their first dose is just despicable. It's a tacit admission that we aren't, and were never, in it together; this entire thing has just been there to get homeowning Tory-voting pensioners safe ASAP with complete disregard for anyone else.

I just hope there isn't too much grumbling when the vaccine passport scheme inevitably backfires. Whether that be with the economy still being in the shitter or from vast swathes of people just breaking the rules anyway. At this point we'd deserve it.

Quote
lol it's always the young people's fault for 'not voting.'

As if we don't have a country that actively disenfranchises the entire age-group in almost every way, making them apathetic to politics that is more-than-likely not going to work for them even if they voted. As if we don't have a voting system that makes the votes of young folk almost entirely inconsequential due to them not having the power of "home-ownership." As if we're literally nothing but a tick in a box so that out-of-touch can feel great about the Tories getting out of power for another 5 years (and nothing much more).

I'm so tired.

note: there is no home ownership requirement or modifier for voting in the UK :lol

Quote
But how do we vote in 2024 when the only viable opposition clearly doesn't care about us either?

Starmer said fuck-all about school meals until a young footballer made a ruckus about it; he's consistently backed the Tories in so many lockdown restrictions despite said restrictions actively fucking over anyone University-aged; he's 'against' Vaccine passports but not because of its inherently discriminatory nature but because it's "Un-British." That's not to mention the flag-wanking, the literally-worse-than-America drug views, and the recent gaffes regarding him visiting an anti-LGBT church. If literally all we've got in 2024 is a "revenge vote," against the Tories then, yeah, it's unlikely that anything will actually change.

That's not to mention how, due to the economic fallout of this predominantly affecting the young, the likelihood of young people being able to move out of job-

Labour strongholds (if they've managed to move out) or the job-poor Tory strongholds (if they're having to live with parents) is low. FPTP makes it incredibly difficult for young people to truly gain an advantage over an age group that, by virtue of financial safety and retirement, can take up the majority in almost all battleground seats throughout the entire country.

So, yeah, the only way this is going to change is if this country stops hating young people...which is never going to fucking happen.
Quote
It's awful, and it's selfishness on my part because I am in that age range who will get the vaccine last. My generation has basically been told 'Thanks for locking down/being furloughed/fired/had your education ruined, we cant wait to give your vaccine multiple months down the line. Until then please allow us to continue fucking you over financially, mentally, and socially whilst your elders can go out and enjoy life'

I dont think the vaccine passports domestically will go through though. I think there's going to be way to much pushback from both sides of the political spectrum and many business (especially clubs, stadiums, concerts, festivals, and events) who need our age range desperately not only to attend, but also to work there.
It's not selfish at all.

And I think they'll definitely go through. There's no way the Tories are going to be the party to tell their primary voter base to "wait a bit," so that those dreaded young can all get vaccinated first. Especially with the massive push in recent days to paint all Uni students and the likes as littering lockdown-breaking yobs. That shit doesn't exactly paint a picture of a country that'll stop kicking the younger generations whilst they're down.

Quote
Where did I ever imply that my problem was with the vaccine rollout? Of course it makes sense that the more vulnerable get theirs first. Don't put words in my mouth like that.

But to clarify, when I refer to "this entire thing," I'm referring to the lockdowns, the economic policies, and this vaccine rollout scheme. They all make sense to protect the health of those most vulnerable, but the actual implementations have pretty much all been entirely based around the wants and desires of 'home-owning Tory pensioners' above all else.

Shit like Uni students being basically kept in prison whilst being charged extortionate rent for the privilege (whilst house-prices are artificially kept nice-and-high), or primarily-younger teachers being forced into work at the behest of their own unions (and shop workers like myself receiving fuck-all compensation for working on the front-lines), or the utter lack of any real attention being paid to Long Covid, or the near-constant propaganda vilifying young protestors and Uni students for the actions of a shitty few, or the current situation where we're actually looking at putting up the 'vaccine passport' barrier before everyone has had the chance to get theirs (and putting it almost entirely around activities young people like to do). I could definitely list more.

Also call me cynical but I highly doubt the Tories would have cared as much if it were young people being more predominantly effected by this. Why would they? We 'don't vote' after all.


The trigger?

Quote
I'd much rather show a vaccine passport than wait upwards of 3 days for a negative test just to go watch bloody Black Widow or Space Jam 2.

Worth pointing out that anyone can get a test in the UK, even without symptoms, at any of the numerous walk-in testing centres in any reasonably sized town. That’s all they’d need for the passport. But it does involve going outside during the pandemic, where neighbours might be fixing cars or meeting friends from other households.

I’m in one of the last groups to be vaccinated (mid-30s with no health issues and not in a frontline job) but could get all I needed to qualify for the passport in like 40 mins, and that’s if I walked to the testing centre.

But then again I’m a homeowner so I think the Tories send me a double secret honorary boomer card that allows me to vote soon.

The UK handled this better than most if not all EU countries, which is a shocker even to Johnson himself but that is the truth.
Still vaccine passports are a big government bullshit can of worms no one who gives two ounces about their freedom or a free society should back.

But some people are so used to the dystopia by now that they just shrug.

Don't even need to do that, you can get one in the post, but yeah obviously you need AN ADDRESS to GET POST, THANKS BIG HOUSING and your VOTER SUPPRESSION

Nah, the events being passported are all implicitly age verified (and therefore requiring identification) anyway. There's really not a strong argument against them.

That's not how the EU plans to do it.

Vaccine shortages no doubt followed by test shortages and mandatory testing and vaccination via passports is just a recipe for disaster.
It's just another tool in the totalitarian government toolbox.

When you get symptoms you test. Testing perfectly healthy people is not at all necessary.
Has anyone calculated how it impacts 'ze climate' if roughly ~400 million people in the EU test every day to take part in society or does it certainly not matter? (I already know the answer)

Who controls the distribution, pricing and availability of such tests and passports? All digital eh? Oops, you lost your phone. Sucks to be you, you can't go outside anymore.

This is not at all the same ballpark as getting tested for some 'exotic' diseases when you travel to a different continent.

Restrictions have only increased, we're only getting pulled deeper into more 'waves' and more 'mutations'.
We had a year to prepare and adapt and then open up. The EU sat on their hands and couldn't even order enough vaccines so now all they can do is impose more draconian measures to control the masses.

This is the UK 'vaccine passport' plans (and 'vaccine passport' is itself a misnomer, as it includes people who've caught it and recovered and people whose tests have come back negative):

All of the 'needed' category are venues that for various reasons implicitly need proof of ID anyway; there's no real civil liberties issues in requiring one kind of ID check when another kind of ID check was always needed anyway.

They're pushing an app because its cheaper / easier / more convenient to most people, but you get a paper ID too.
When I got my first shot they gave me a card with date / vaccine batch number / NHS ID on it, and they'll just add a second sticker when I get my second shot, and that'll be proof enough.

Likewise, if countries are going to require proof of vaccination to move between countries, even when the UK was in the EU you generally needed your passport to travel anyway, even under nominal free movement.

If the UK gov was doing shit like curfews, or travel checkpoints, or prohibiting access to transport or shops without vaccination IDs, there's be some civil liberty concerns about requring proof of citizenship to just live as a citizen, but this?

covid passports, protest restrictions, indeterminate extension of covid-era legislation or just about any other tory scheme to give them a little bit more control over a population while it's utterly whipped into servile compliance can absolutely do one.

Needed: What rich people use
Not needed: What poor people use

This is shit's so blatant. There's a much higher risk of COVID in crowded pubs then there is at a well organized theatre
What's that Apple just banned your App Store account? Sorry no more festivals for you.
The government moved the 'trains' into the 'needed' column and you're on a waiting list for a vaccine? Too bad.

Build back better = the rich will pay a few percent more tax on their 'official' income because they need a bigger stronger government to keep you in check in your climate neutral tiny house where you work from home.

We're sleepwalking into a dystopia. NATO governments should invest in healthcare but instead they're investing in a police state because it's much cheaper and has added benefits like outlawing protests.

Quote from: LMJ
I have been gaming well before the Playstation was even a consideration, and I can't recall when a person...a single person has recieved the bile and hatred as much as Jim Ryan the current head of playstation, and yes that includes Mattrick and his silliness. 

Ryan is being blamed for everything as if he's a madman pulling switches on his office wall like "kill Japanese support" and " make every PS title PC too", but people seem to either forget or ignore many a thing when it comes to this guy, so I thought maybe a thread that clears up some of the BS regarding Ryan's policies might be due if only to counter the fifty saying how he is gaming Hitler 2.0.


Let me be frank, I am currently VERY pissed with Sony due to the store closures, shutting down the webstore FORCING me to use the PS3 and Vita stores to purchase my games, so much in fact I am genuinely considering hacking both systems as a way to ensure my data is safe and get around Sony's shitty OS (seriously how many times do I need to RE-register my systems so I can use PSN Sony?!?  That and the catering to the woke crap and the BS censorship has me leaning Anti-Sony as of late and don't even get me started on the 80 DOLLAR HIKE#@%$#%$@, but the hyperbole man OY it's bad,

#1 RYAN NEVER SAID THERE WOULDN'T BE CROSS-GEN GAMES

Ryan stated the following[/B], “We have always said that we believe in generations. We believe that when you go to all the trouble of creating a next-gen console, that it should include features and benefits that the previous generation does not include. And that, in our view, people should make games that can make the most of those features.” 
"We do believe in generations, and whether it's the DualSense controller, whether it's the 3D audio, whether it's the multiple ways that the SSD can be used... we are thinking that it is time to give the PlayStation community something new, something different, that can really only be enjoyed on PS5." 


That having been said, it was followed up by this

"We have always felt that we had a responsibility to serve that [PS4] community for several years after the launch of PS5 and that it represented a huge business opportunity for us," Ryan said. "The numbers are quite straightforward. If you say in broad brush figures that we have a community of 100 million PS4 owners right now, and in the first couple of years... I don't know, somewhere between 15 and 25 million might migrate to PS5, that still leaves a huge number of people with PS4s."

While potentially disingenuous, at no point did Ryan state the PS4 was to be forgotten (the opposite in fact) and we're ignoring the actual PS5 exclusives both here and coming soon

#2 JAPAN STUDIOS WAS STARTING TO DOWNSIZE BEFORE THE PS5 AND RYAN'S CONTROL BEGAN

Look, I'll be the first to admit that the recent news from Japan studios is disheartening, but the writings been on the wall for a while, after the Last guardian this has sadly become a trend and not only for Sony...
traditional gaming is dying in japan and mobile markets are king, Nintendo has proven that it can still hang in their homeland sales wise, but lets not pretend this isn't due to the Switches mobile capability.  Japan studio's games simply aren't selling at home or abroad at necessary levels and those leaving are doing so by choice, it's not lay offs or firings its leaving to explore new options.

#3 JAPAN STUDIO'S IS NOT CLOSING, BUT RESTRUCTURING

Okay so the option is stay on with the team you know so well, but potentially work on something you're not feeling at all (let's be honest Astro Bots is great, but could you see some of these creative directors working on it?)  Sounds like Sony is leaning into Astrobot hard and focusing less on the niche market, not saying there won't still be creative games, but that's news only the future will tell.

#4 THE PC SHIFT WAS STARTING WHEN HOUSE WAS STILL IN CHARGE

While it's true that hose stated that the PC and not the Xbox was Playstations greatest competition, it's also true that numerous games started to launch with PC cross-play and Exclusives such as street fighter were also released on the PC.  Ryan may have accelerated the movement, but it was still underway before he took over.

#5 THE GAMES BEING ON PC DOESN"T HURT THE PSV EXPERIENCE IN ANYWAY! (JUST DICKHAT BRAGGING RIGHTS)

this is by far the most annoying point, if the PC see's these games how is the playstation experience hurt?  Thus far the games have come out well after their original release... (whiny voice)
"but the PC version comes with extra graphical features and modes"     No shit sherlock, they're trying to get another sale out of it (PS IS a business after all) just like a deluxe edition the point is to make it desirable, and those with NICE PC's want to squeeze all the graphical juice they can from their beasts.

#6 THE SHOW GOING TO THE BOX IS PROOF THAT RYAN IS A SHITHEAD AND TERRIBLE PRESIDENT (Sign my petition)

No, it's proof the MLB (Major League Baseball) screwed Sony's studio and basically forced them to go Multi-plat, it's not even published by Sony on the Box, but the MLB.  MS was brilliant to put it on Gamepass though lol X

[URL unfurl="true"]https://screenrant.com/mlb-the-show-21-xbox-not-playstation-published/[/URL]


#7 RYAN IS A CENSOR NAZI, CENSORING EVERYTHING AND IT STARTED WITH HIM!!!

Nope, well sort of anyway (a partial truth I guess) I despise censorship and while it's continued under him, that shit started in 2016-2017 with Japanese niche games, and it's only gotten worse, blame the woke "save the children" REEE crowd, but only partly blame Ryan if you must. (like I said that shits still going strong sadly)



and lastly a bonus one

#80085 :p IF YOU GIVE RYAN CREDIT FOR THE ALL THE SHIT, THEN YOU HAVE TO GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR ALL THE AWESOME! (it's only fair)

let's be honest here, Ryan likely isn't responsible for half of the shit that he gets blamed for, a President and CEO is dealing with a lot of shit and thus hires trustworthy people under them to make decisions, the same applies here, but hey...it's only fair

*Meanwhile at Soyny*

"... a recent survey shows that the Japanese consumer thinks the PlayStation 5 is too big which along with ongoing GPU shortages will certainly be problematic for our revenue targets this year.
Hideo Kojima has also voiced concern that Japanese gamers are less interested in PlayStation products after the release of PlayStation 5."
