  1. Here is my run and gun and shoot-em-up section. Xeno Crisis, Crisis Wing, Cotton Fantasy C/E, and Psikyo Collections 1 &2 have been purchased and will probably knock the run and guns off this shelf. Anyone who doesn't give the PS4 library a 9/10 for GOAT is crazy.
  2. Mmmm 1986 is a tough one. Maybe Aliens or Color of Money? Aliens Color of Money Highlander Platoon Big Trouble in Little China Top Gun Stand by Me Ferris Buellers Day Off The Fly
  3. Kirby Nes Double Dragon lll Starfox 64 Sands of Time from Prince of Persia Trilogy. (Not including o.g. PoP.)
  4. I read that as: option a. 50% chance 1 person dies, option b. 10% chance 1 person dies, 90% chance no one dies or more people can die. So I went with A.
  5. I quit after the first couple areas, but they say it gets better in the later areas.
  6. Joe and Mac Sega gets a bad rap. It's pretty hard, I think I'm only level 7 or 8, but after you get used to it, it really is a solid non-random/precision platformer. If you figure out the hit boxes, figure out the patterns, and get used to the weapons, (which are surprisingly complex, because the way the interact with boss patterns), the game is fun as you get gud. Also, Sunset Riders Sega gets talked down on as if it is inferior to the Snes port or is too difficult. Bollocks. The game is very precise and fair. It may not be as bright and colorful as the Snes game, but the gameplay is better imo. And it's really not that hard, it's a precision run and gun, and probably top five in the genre.
  7. The Supreme Court is officially a political organization. Now that the Supreme Court has given right wing voters anti-abortion rulings to drive voter turnout they are paying back corporations for the money they spent on politicians. The Supreme Court is dropping regulations that will harm Americans and this is the pay back to donors on behalf of the Republican party.
  8. I don't think it was a book deal. Hard to say how this plays out for her. I could see her take a hit if she wanted to continue in the same field. And I could imagine Trump supporters going after her. I'd guess there was a hard negotiation to get her to testify. And if they some how bring charges against people later, they'll let her slide. Problem is the Dems don't play to win so hard to say whether charges for anything are on the table.
  9. That makes a difference. And honestly, I am just spit-balling, I have no idea what happened. Problem is all of these people are unreliable witnesses. The woman testifying is clearly an awful human being who has no ethics.
  10. I bet he has trouble reaching his ass to wipe it let alone a steering wheel across a limo. He probably reached for that steering wheel the same way Gulianni got hit by a boulder.
  11. Good point. I've gotta think some of those anti-American Jan 6 people are upset that he ditched them. So from my completly cynical non-evidence based thoughts, it's a positive story for him.
  12. Sounds like a bunch of empty rhetoric to me. I see a bunch of opinions with zero examples.
  13. I've never heard of that percentage system, but logically I think it makes sense. That confines a states votes to one region, but since the number of votes a state has is also a ratio it should work out; seems redundant, but I'd be down.
  14. This would never have happened if three of Supreme Court justices were selected by presidents that won the most votes. Edit: Matter-of-fact when will the Supreme Court be overturning the electoral college since it's not in the Constitution? Someone file an amicus brief, I'll hold my breath.
  15. They're just getting started. And really the saddest thing after all the damage these rulings are going to directly cause people, is that the rule of law is a joke. There is no consistency to these rulings and they are politically driven to bring out Republican voters. These people hate America.
  16. @Driftwood please no more mass eye rolls, I won't be able to sleep tonight, worrying about them.
  17. So the Republican Supreme Court essentially says states cannot restrict gun laws i.e. New York at the same time they says that states have the right to restrict abortion. Trash. #Why do Republicans Hate Children
  18. A few years ago I would have whole heartedly disagreed with the complaints about the Fed, but after the last two years I have moved over some. The Fed has single handedly re-aligned the economy for decades and we are only seeing pieces of the damage they have done. That being said a decentralized currency is not the way. The same people that benefited the most from Fed decisions are the same people that would benefit the most from a decentralized currency.
  19. It sounds like you're saying that there are other options to decoupling currency from governments and that that is a positive thing. The issue with decoupling currency from government is that government provides regulation which protect people. Since bitcoin has avoided the same regulatory scrutiny as banks what has resulted is massive number of scams and people being defrauded. For me this is evidence that this decoupling is a ridiculous and just another failed libertarian idea. Our banks used to be unregulated and it had horrible results including fly-by-night banks which is exactly what we have seen with these shit coins.
  20. Not sure what you are upset about. You made a long post comparing gold/oil mining to bit-coin mining and I responded by stating that gold/oil is not equal to bitcoin because of intrinsic value. The other issue is that you say that mining gold/oil does not create value, the asset must be sold. That is not true, gold and oil if held will appreciate over time because inflation occurs since the resources have intrinsic value. Bitcoin does not have intrinsic value.
