Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone

I’ve watched it several times and the first person you responded to is right.

A superglued pull tab for an aluminum can.

An ingredient list and nutritional information on the side.

Always thought the Sun-Maid mascot was Hispanic, but so am I.

You’re also not taking into account subscription price hikes, policies dictating what you can and can’t do with the software, media availability without internet, surveillance and data selling.

Netflix has doubled their fees in the last ten years while hemorrhaging beloved content to other streaming services.

Netflix and others dictate that you’re not allowed to siphon the shows and movies to watch later, at a time and place that may be inconvenient for the service (such as removing it).

Go anywhere without internet and suddenly all of your paid options don’t exist. That may be resolved one day by unlimited internet everywhere, but that leads into…

These streaming services will know where you are and what you’re doing all the time. Surveillance in general has only gotten worse, and watchdogs may be vigilant but it’s not blunting how much privacy is being stripped away from you on a regular basis.

The price you’re paying isn’t just dollars and it’s not locked in forever.

I never mentioned age. I mentioned games that are played for thousands of hours. Meaning that the value of those games far exceeds the value of the subscription. Furthermore, then the subscription ends (including when pulling games that are too old) and you are left without the game you have been sinking an incredible amount of time into just because some suits determined that not enough people play X game to warrant providing server space.

Yes. I am explaining that the opposite value of that statement doesn’t go far enough.

To be fair nobody plays just one single game for 3 years.

Where’s the confusion?

Skyrim, Fallout 4, RDR2, Witcher 3, The Sims, Dark Souls, Civilization, Borderlands 1/2, Stardew Valley, Persona…

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean there aren’t people that come back again and again between games to dust off an old favorite. While I personally never touched Fallout 4 again after beating it, I’ll break out my XBox 360 and give New Vegas a whirl to see what character concept I’ll try this time.

“able to do anything”

I’m all set up right there, thanks.

Even more importantly: God is omnipotent, which means they don’t make mistakes. A simulation doesn’t imply a higher power that is perfect in every way.

I will accept that you can’t see how they’re related.

It’s interpretable as a sarcastic response to someone taking a position against Spez, catchphrase or no. This doesn’t seem hard to understand.

Do you have the same issues with people who learn Valspeak or AAVE?

Catchphrases have cultural significance of having a shared understanding of the intent, both delivered straight and ironically. Your attitude is not conducive to a shared experience.

Or are you suggesting that you never use quotes of any kind, regardless of the source?

Here from Reddit. That’s one seriously broad paintbrush you’re using.

Amazing. I see Bebop.

I’m not surprised they didn’t get any traction.

Nobody would be if it was up on wood blocks.
