Oh yeah idk, thats the problem with those estimates is people don’t usually buy everything at full price, they rent or wait for sales or subscribe to a streaming service or gamepass, so even if you assume pepple would have bought everything they pirate, how do you assign a value to it. Like i wasn’t even thinking about movie tickets, i was thinking like 20 or 30 bucks for a bluray. Idk how much they are because i haven’t bought any in ages though lol.

Also 90% of the people who work on movies don’t usually get royalties. They’ve already been paid for their work, who cares if the production company CEO gets a few extta bucks?

Hi FBI. I will just say 5000 seems crazy low though, especially if you’re assuming a movie is $20-$30 and a game is like $10-$80. Dunno how you’d calculate tv shows but dvd/bluray seasons/box sets can get real expensive fast.

Yeah this one so much. I think its still amazing and the two seasons can each kinda stand on their own, and still have satisfying endings, but just knowing that they had an entire 5 season arc planned out drives me crazy considering how great that show was.

Just played this on steamdeck and it was incredible. I really cant see it being that good on mobile though.

I wonder if there’s anything else you could 3d print that would help fight against corporate greed?

Seeing the aphex twin visuals with the disturbed music really threw me off until i realized someone had just mashed them up.

I have a DARE shirt that says ‘Drugs Are Really Expensive’ underneath and i feel like thats a more effective deterrent than anything they said in the program.

I had a 2006 escape with a v6 that felt amazing to drive. That thing accelerated like a beast. Anytime someone with a flashy sports car would pull up beside me at a red light and be revving their engine id floor it as soon as the light changed and leap ahead of them, until i hit 60 and then id level off and let them pull ahead. Such a satisfying feeling watching these wxpensive new cars drop behind though. Of course thats probably all due to their drivers, i dont acrual have any illusions that it was the faster car in most cases, but it did have very unexpected power and a nice amount of cargo space. I really miss that car. Shame they seem to have gone downhill.

Iirc what.cd was freeleech for the first week, so i did go nuts. Downloaded anything that seemed popular that didn’t have a huge amount of seeders, and then after the freeleech period ended i downloaded basically every freeleech torrent i could find whether i wanted it or not, just for the seeding. This let me keep quite a good ratio despite having a terrible upload speed at the time. Alot of sites will also give bonus seeder points for uploading new torrents i think, especially if they have a request or bounty system.

Adobe did that a long time ago.

Why would yhere always need to be hunger? Its been proven over and over that this is a solvable problem and we have more than enough resources to solve it. They even put a monetary amount on it and it could easily be solved by a single billionaire. And then we know that once people arent starving or desperate for shelter and constantly concerned about their basic needs and survival, crime goes way down. And why does there need to be war? Because the oil companies or mercenaries and military industrial complex demands it? Let them die and we could easily have a much better society that takes care of all peoples basic needs. Its really not that complicated.

Its literally a false review, designed to counter the multiple negative real reviews that have been left recently. Its a false narrative designed to induce the reader into doubting the ture narrative of the other genuine reviews, or possibly even influence a potential reviewer by coloring their actual experience with the app. Definitely fits the definition you posted, even if its inconsistent with the example they gave.

Sounds like someone who’s never had their butt licked.

Its spelled pristine lmao, thats why the other guy put it in quotes.

Can play gamecube/wii games and most ps2. Ps3 you’re gonna have problems with even with a steamdeck sometimes.

You can buy handhelds for like $100 that have basically every console game up to and including ps2/ds preloaded. What else would you need?

They’ve got the REAL 36 lessons locked away in there.

This study is actually kind of sad, because upon further reflection on the data, it was found that the kids with “poor impulse control” were actually less likely to trust authority figures because they had experienced so many letdowns or broken promises from adult role models in their lives. Kids with happy home lives who were used to getting treats were way more likely to wait for the second marshmallow, whereas kids who had been consistently lied to or had never been given spontaneous treats by their caretakers were more likely to just take what was right in front of them.

Just played through both of these, they were so good.
