People complained that there was a black character in the video game God Of War Ragnarok.

They seem to ignore the fact that it's a game series about Greek mythology and that game is suddenly Norse mythology. Guess continuity issues like entirely different cultures are fine as long as we keep it white!

You fully misunderstood my stance. The person I responded to said "despite everything Biden is doing" as if he's created other controversy. I was asking what that controversy is.

Despite what that Biden's doing exactly? I've heard about Israel weapon sales that are now being forced through by republicans as well. What else?

They urgently need to stare and meow in your direction before doing whatever else they damn well please.

I don't think bulbs use a whole lot of energy these days. A 10W LED bulb would cost $14 per year to run constantly (US pricing). An old 60W bulb would be $83 per year in comparison.

But there's probably no reasoning with someone who decorated that room.

Math:

LED bulb power = 10W

Electricity cost in US = $0.161 per kWh

Running 1 bulb 24 hrs a day = 0.24kWh

Price per day = $0.038

Price per year = $14, running 1 bulb constantly

Does that mean Jesus had a hotter summer?

There's a movie in here somewhere.

Shit I walked right into that one.

Wow that's true. Renting is someone letting you borrow their debt because you can't afford your own debt.

You can very easily get a gun without a background check. Used guns are often sold without a background check.

That's also a legal issue with autonomous cars.

Autonomous cars can also get into basically the trolley problem. If an accident is unavoidable, but the car can swerve and kill its own passenger to avoid killing more people in a larger wreck, should it? And would that end up as more liability for whoever takes the blame?
