His side gigs are super grifty. Curiosity box was a straight scam. Two months delayed and full of shifty products that break or fall apart trying to assemble them.

From what I'm reading Hitler was a lifelong passion for Trump. Sure he might not have read it recently, but at one point, even if it's was 20 years ago, he wasn't mentally deranged. If he actually did read them "from time to time" over the years, that's easily a dozen. And usually people remember things better if they find it interesting, so even someone with memory issues would be able to paraphrase and recite something they've heard a dozen times, especially if that was their passion.

Aight, supremacist.

You're just slippery sloping. Obviously if every level of oversight is corrupt you're fucked, but if the 3rd party auditors have proper monitoring by the state, who has proper monitoring by the feds, there's several levels of checks and balances.

They'd be removing the USB ports? I'm pretty sure you need to physically connect controllers to the playstation via USB to even get them paired. Plus peripherals like headphones.

Also disagree with the take that games aren't pushing the ps5 hardware. The fuck are they smoking when we have performance mode for most games? 4k, 60fps, with raytracing should be the benchmark these days.

Seriously. With all the hate, now they're just straight murdering people trying to show evidence of a crime.

Don't talk to cops, people. Even as a witness, apparently. They'll kill you for fun anyway.

I think that today's world makes it harder to stand out as a genius, even with more opportunity. Most modern composers with any public name recognition are movie composers, like Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, and John Williams. Absolutely incredible scores without their movies, but are any Mozart level? I bet the Mozart level ones are probably well known in the orchestral world, but none of them are probably very well known outside of it.

And as far as scientists and mathematics, those roles have been pretty much entirely commercialized and corporatized. Even stuff for the public good is largely funded through grants and private investors, so the geniuses are always beholden to others who will take the real credit.

All of the recognized "geniuses" that I can think of are business-savvy grifters like musk and bozos and Zuck, all riding the coattails of the real innovators. Plus, these three specifically, if you look at their vanity projects and shit, they're all pretty insane.

You weren't describing nature vs nurture. You were implying eugenics with your last statement.

To be fair Rockstar was really the company that normalized nudity in games. Not that is is normalized, I can only think of a handful of companies that have done it in mainstream games. Cd project red gamed and that Conan exiles or whatever mmo where you get a dick? Honestly can't think of others.

Mandatory third party audits like we do with every other regulated industry.
