Yep that's me!

Yeah fuck this, a special 911 enables the rich to snitch on the poor without any good reason, citing "threats". No specific class of people in a society should have special access to law enforcement.

But who am I kidding. When the SCOTUS ruled that the police protects property and not people, this was the next logical step: protect those with more property than others.

One more step towards a Cyberpunk dystopia. And one more step towards class consciousness, a general strike, and revolution, hopefully.

Yeah I was waiting for someone to call this out.

I think there are specific machines that can scan even with large electronics inside bags. Not all airports have them, just as not all terminals nor security lines have them.

The vacuum pump?

Pretty sure that YT account was faked, or mis-related to Mangione

By those ideals, prisoners should also have the right to vote.

You are a mindless zombies.

Please tell me you're not trolling, and have an actual working brain to understand your idiocy.

You are correct when it comes to both parties representing billionaires and both parties supporting genocides abroad.

Not all jobs are equal: not in pay, not in proximity to the people who actually carry out the orders of Leadership, not in consequences, not in collaboration with others.

For example, Biden has the authority to stop the transfer of arms to Israel, even after Congress has approved of it. That decision would have much greater impacts on Israel's ability to carry out their genocide on the Palestinian people.

A McDonald's manager has no say in weather those arms make it to Israel or not.

Different positions call for different levels of ethical consideration. Maybe the United Healthcare CEO should have considered ethics and morals more when he decided to prioritize profit over human lives.

Consequently, you could also make the same diagnosis for Biden because this whole Israel thing is nuking his legacy.

Profit matters on a quarterly basis.

If a company gets the full profit of their game as they predicted they might in 1 quarter, then that's basically the best case scenario.

If instead that full profit is spread of multiple years, then quater-to-quarter the game might look like it is underperforming, or severely so.

The timing of profit matters just as much as how much profit there is. Time value of money is a pretty useful concept in the financial world.

Economists cannot predict the future, as much as some people might wish they could.

Whatever break even point the devs of Anno 1800 considered when making the decision between releasing only on Epic and releasing to all platforms may have seemed reasonable at the time the devs were gearing up to release the game, but performance of said game is never guaranteed. Sure you may have statistics to influence things one way or another, but it's still a gamble.

We don't know if Epic exclusive + late discounts > full game purchases on all platforms specifically for Anno 1800, and it appears that you're claiming which way that equation points with no evidence. Do you work for Epic? For Ubisoft? For Blue Byte? Are there public sources pointing to game sales? What research are you pulling from that considers game futures?

I will respect that you're right about predicting devs' decisions based on which way that equation points. Everyone is downvoting you though because you're making it seem like you know the answer when clearly there's more to this game, and financial gaming decisions like this.

You're not an expert. You're a chatter. Unless you can prove otherwise.
