I forget sometimes that the function of a jury is to establish the fact of guilt and nothing else. Deciding appropriate punishment is not within their domain, that's for the judge.
In that context I do agree with you and I suppose I retract my earlier statement.
Fair enough! To each their own. Personally the 200 hours in between shots of dopamine put me off of that. I found myself being bored most of the time I was playing the game and supposed to be enjoying myself.
Though, that said, I found myself bored most of the time running GRifts too. Modern Diablo may just be poorly designed from the base up. The glory days of Blizzard are well behind us, unfortunately.
I kind of doubt that, actually. He's already proven himself to be a useful idiot, and he's becoming less useful and more idiot as the days go by. If he does manage to get elected again he's not the one that's going to be in charge, he'll almost certainly be swamped with handlers who will instruct him on which bills to sign and what words to say in order to advance their own agenda.
My mother did this. Used her disability backpay to finance a little double-wide trailer, and the plot it's placed on is like $150 a year plus utilities. Yes she lives in a trailer park, with all the associated things that come with that, but her monthly expenses are basically nothing and she owns the building under her own name.
I'd argue that's exactly who we want on the jury. Who would know better exactly how heinous the crime is than someone who lived through it?
You make a great point about the state of post-expansion endgame. But loving the Auction House loot system is akin to banging your face on a brick wall because it feels good when you stop.
I command you to show me the manual
So if your MAF sensor shits the bed you'll never know about it because you're overwriting its data. And from there it's only a matter of time before your car requires dealership service to turn on because it can't phone home properly because some bullshit proprietary data key is broken.
The game of cat and mouse will continue. People will hack their cars and manufacturers will install anti-hacking measures and then people will hack the anti-hacking measures. It's just another thing where instead of being a mutually beneficial transaction it will become a hostile arms race between the consumers and manufacturers. We're already on this path; the only real hope I'm holding out for is the advent of an open source car.
Around where I'm at you're at semi-significant risk of getting pulled over if you're driving under the speed limit. The police assume you're drunk or high and if you're not they'll give you something about "being a hazard to other traffic". Speed limit+10 is the safest speed to move at around here because you're matching other traffic and matching what the cops expect of you.
Yuzu wasn't completely free; that's sort of what got them into hot water in the first place and the reason why Nintendo hasn't also sued SNES9X into the dirt. Yuzu had a patreon with certain releases gated behind it. That's what got them in trouble.
Counterpoint : Kool-aid man doing Lil Jon's YEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHH!
Oh boy can't wait to see this one slog its way through 32 courts over the next 19 years and end in an unsatisfactory conclusion a decade after all parties involved have already died
