It turns out in America it's surprisingly easy to get away with pepper spraying people. There's a weird YouTube rabbit hole of "free speech auditors" who go around doing things they're legally allowed to do but are shitty to get reactions. They escalate things until they pepper spray the person they're aggravating. Even in their own videos cops show up and basically just shrug. I think the logic is that since it doesn't cause any long term damage that a lawyer can pretty easily argue it was a "reasonable force"

Short answer: I'd be surprised if he suffers any consequences from this

I've been doing this game for a few months now. Today was a pretty easy day. There have been a few where there were double vampires or a dragon guarding the last room in such a way that you can't kite them around that I couldn't figure out how to beat. However I think like most of these daily games, it is built for you to usually succeed

Let me gradually increase the resistance on it each day until I can go Super Saiyan

I imagine Epic cares less about what the ESRB thinks and more about what the CCP thinks, seeing as Tencent has a major stake in Epic. China is generally anti-death in games

Epic's official language for the game never features death. Characters are eliminated, you can meet the god of the underworld, but no character ever actually dies. Apparently the ESRB says it's ok

Yes but a big difference is Call of Duty is an M rated video game whereas Fortnite is rated T. Fortnite doesn't feature blood, death, or swearing. Does it matter that the same kids probably play both? That's for the parents to decide

Both male and female mosquitos now drink blood and they spit some of the last person's blood in you when they drink, causing them to spread blood borne diseases

I think this is a great horror year because I loved The Substance but I was blown away by Late Night With the Devil. Plus we also had Longlegs and Alien: Romulus. I just thought Late Night had great pacing, really interesting characters, and it got my entire theater to scream out loud at the end. David Dastmalchian just knocks it out of the park. Lots of great stuff this year

You can play 1 blind during an ad break. Whether or not they have the self control to is another question

I just did the math and I believe each roll contains approximately enough cholesterol to kill a horse. In other words, this is my kind of meal

With zero sarcasm: thank you for taking the time to write that explanation out.

However, this is kind of exactly what I'm talking about. You're saying I can use plex, or jellyfin, or kodi, with all the opperating systems (but not?) and you say I can stream to smart TVs, are Chromecasts smart? I can follow instructions, I just don't understand how this technology stack works together. Nobody even tells me what Linux distro to use!

 

Player 2: I don't even know what that means

Me: Exactly!

When someone links to a community if you open the post and then follow the link it works fine. If you're browsing with cards and try to follow the link from the card without opening the actual post it attempts to open the link in a browser which fails because the link is not the full URL. It would be nice if clicking the link would take me to that community on that instance, which is what it does when you open the post and click the link
