Always real answer: they invested in BAT.

That part about gold being impossible to depose didn’t age well. 😢

Does that really count as “throw objects” though?

How come they don’t count? They’re figuring out how the machines should work, for money. That’s engineering, right? (I’m an American mechanical engineer)

Brilliant advertising. That could be me!

In which market is Steam a monopoly?

If the developers want to just directly sell me their games old school I’d be cool with that.

I’ve been scared to use that ever since they actually solved “Public reluctance to accept weird new forms of money”.

I’m not defending China here, but since Snowden we now know that American corporate spyware does serve the government. And they are suppressing democracy - this isn’t a democracy yet, and peaceful protests for democracy are met with violent police resistance - Occupy, BLM, etc.

Half the white people: Yee haw, I’m gonna shoot some minorities! I’m in a militia!

I liked summoning in 3, but in 4 it feels like all the monsters just run straight past my summons to me. It’s like having an incompetent offensive line in American football. I just spend every fight running around avoiding monsters because they’re smarter than my skeletons.

Or cats

I can believe it.

In economics, the Jevons paradox occurs when technological progress increases the efficiency with which a resource is used (reducing the amount necessary for any one use), but the falling cost of use induces increases in demand enough that resource use is increased, rather than reduced.

35 years old! Makes me wonder what he would’ve come up with next, where music would be today if he’d lived to a ripe old age.

Believe it or not, sexism!

They usually place the man’s name first and then only pass on those names.

We just made up portmanteau names for our kids, based on what sounded good. Over time, this should improve the overall coolness of last names.

We need another Nader. Jill Stein just doesn’t cut it.

I like to cut off Teslas in particular because they have extra safe following features.
