Haven’t played all the way through personally, but I enjoyed it. There was a skill gap for me though via the same twitch reactions 😂.

We’ll just pretend the other m didn’t happen. But yes been looking forward to MP4 for SOOOOO long. Honestly gonna miss the Wii controls, thought they worked really well for Metroid.

100% agree, also, I think we’ve come across each other before. Love the tag and pic. Metroid is my favorite series.

Why the hell is it always so bad at fingers?

So he’ll cripple our military by installing loyalists and removing competent leaders by Totally bypassing existing procedures in the Pentagon… Wonder if any foreign adversaries will decide to test our strength once this is done… Love this timeline. Give me more.

Was such a stupid stance. By abstaining, they effectively voted for a swifter genocide. And it was obvious.

In reality, since it was more random, some poor soul would have their whole biomes destroyed, and just be rekd.

They’re probably studying it to figure out how to more successfully lock their hardware down as the only things capable of playing new games.

While yes, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to enjoy cute fat baby tiger pics if OP didn’t share the task

Honestly, I’d take it over what we have now, or are about to get. Those people were at least smart enough to elect the best candidate.

My wife was de-uterized a few years back (mostly for other reasons), but it’s been the best.

Unfortunately it always seems to be the dumbest that breed most.

Ahh bummer, thanks for the update. Hopefully it doesn’t make it too difficult to vote

My wife and I tried, looks like we lost the presidential for KY, not super surprised, but disappointed.

Glad we won prop 2 though. We don’t have kids, and they’re not in our future, but they already keep taking too many funds from public schools.

Anyone have the result for prop 1?

Lawls, yeah, the fact it’s not clever at all is what I was getting at 😂😂 nothing like all the nicknames I’ve heard for Trump:

• Fat Nixon
• Little Donnie two scoops
• Agent orange
• Mango Mussolini
• Napoleon bone spurs
• Orange fuhrer

Etc. these are some of my favorites.

Your comment lead me to this article (CNN), because I kept hearing stuff like bytedance is primarily owned by American or non-chinese companies, blah blah blah. So I appreciate you prompting me to look further into it. Seems pretty cut and dry that you’re correct. (Wasn’t just this article that pointed it out, but it was the most inclusive and concise one I found)

All that said, what information can china get from the app that they don’t already have, or can already purchase from any of the other data collectors/sellers available? Is it just the fact they can do it for free?

There’s also the option that perhaps the CCP will decide (or maybe has already) to influence what Americans see on the app. Perfectly feasible, but in my experience, it shows you what it knows you like to see. My feed is primarily related to human rights, recent politics, American history, science and tech, and cute dog/cat videos. My wife’s feed is primarily horse/animal, music, entertaining things. creepy old dudes complain all they see is half dressed teenagers dancing (we all know why they’re seeing that). If they’re interfering with the algorithm to influence American politics (like Russia did with Facebook), I think they’re doing so poorly.

No no, I mean, if you’re turning 18 on November 4th (or maybe even the 5th), you can register to vote earlier in the year. But you’re only eligible for elections AFTER you’re 18.

Unless his birthday happens before the election. I believe you’re allowed to register if your birthday falls before the election.

Did you mean “demoNcrats”? That’s the term the kids are using these days. I swear, the nicknames are the only things remotely clever about trump supporters.

Fair point, but if they were at all actually interested in American privacy, they’d not only target TikTok. Facebook, Twitter and Google have all been actually proven to have leaked or sold user information to anyone that’ll pay (including American adversaries).

While I don’t disagree that the risk is there with TikTok, all they can bring to bear against it is speculation and what-ifs. They have concrete proof of other companies willingly doing what they’re afraid TikTok MIGHT do.

I don’t think you can blame Twitter and TikTok for that. People who like Tate’s toxic masculinity incel garbage will find somewhere that feeds into their preferences.
