Well she was out of highschool. She is like a few or several years older than him

She stopped going (and was implied to have dropped out) the year before when they started dating, and Peter was in his last year of school. At most she was a year older then him.

Betty Brant wasn't in college when Peter was dating her.

I kinda doubt removing Payroll tax would be enough to get most retirees to start working again.

I think he'd be more successful if he just said the forward party was a single-issue party to get rid of the first past the post system.

The label on the Switch's plug seems positioned strangely in comparison to the other labels plugs.

No they couldn't. The telescope costs around $10 billion. Students loans would cost over $1 trillion.

What a time to be alive.

She's from the 90's IIRC.

Just checked out the post credit scene. How did Ms Marvel transform into Captain Marvel?

In the comics Rick Jones and Marvel's original Captain Marvel at one point could use the Nega-Bands to swap location with each other. My guess is that part of the plot of The Marvels will be based on that storyline but with Ms Marvel, and current Captain Marvel instead of Rick Jones and older Captain Marvel.

He could just rewind time and kill Dumbledore while he's on the toilet.

He couldn't do that though, as time travel in Harry Potter was deterministic, or at least it was until the Cursed Child retconned that bit.

What about 4? Its on my to-play list

I'm not really a fan of it. It makes some good gameplay changes, but the AI seemed stupidly bad, at one point they had a character run into my undefended capture point, and then run out of it, instead of capturing it. The story also felt kinda a mess, it feels as if they weren't sure if they wanted a funny rom-com or a dark "war is hell" type of story so the games tone feels quite inconsistent.

The first game is a classic, the rest is absolute trash

3 is good.

...in the 60s?

Nah, in the 60s it was pretty crappy and was seen as a Fantastic Four tip-off before being cancelled. Giant-Sized X-Men in 1975 is when the series got brought back and started doing well. The next issue, Uncanny X-Men 94, is when the series started being written by Chris Claremont. During his run Mutants were mainly used as an allegory for various minorities.

I thought that was old and new mutants were being born again like ten years ago

New mutants started being born after X-men: Second Coming back in 2010. However with comic book time that's not really that long in the comics, plus Marvel (supposedly due to orders from Disney) seemed to start focusing less on the X-Men and mutants in general.

No, I haven't had a actual real-life fight while playing TTRPGs. I don't usually have in-game characters fight either.

My guess is the games don't make enough money for them to justify it. Or they think the only people who'll buy them, are ones who won't use the English dub anyway.

3. Dungeons and Dragons

Have you seen how popular it is these days? One of the other TTRPGs could be the nerdiest hobby's, but Dungeons and Dragons? Hell no.

NeonOctopus posted...

Yeah, you'll never see a show about a bunch of guys getting jailed inside an all-female school, and then have to escape via various horny shenanigans.

God, I love anime >_>

You do know Prison Break has a TV Drama adaptation, right?

NeonOctopus posted...

I think all P3 newbies should play FES first just to get a good presentation with how it was meant to be seen. Then play the female route of Portable for the full Persona 3 experience.

I'd recommend playing Portable and watching the cutscenes from FES on Youtube.

Depends on the edition of Dungeons and Dragons. Some are good or better, some not so much.

Guns_of_Verdun posted...

Dark Souls is anime whether people want to admit it or not.

Wait, there's a Dark Souls anime?

From my understanding "Soulslike" is supposed to be a subgenre of action-adventures games that are particularly hard, and focused on environmental storytelling.

to get the best score you can beat him and just leave it on the naming screen until 0.00-0.03 seconds and then continue

I think you can wait as long as you want at the naming screen. As by that point the game can no longer give you a game over.

Well they have one big fat digusting one

WTF?!? How dare you! What did Camels do to be associated with Boris Johnson?!?

At the very least, its a perfect way to kill some time while watching old episodes of The Simpsons.

Uh, what?

ViewtifulJoe posted...

Why did you do that, Yakuza?

It, like a lot of the game, is a reference to the story "Coin Locker Babies" by Ry Murakami. It's not a direct rip off of the story but in Coin Locker Babies one of the coin locker characters gets their parent mixed up with the parent of the other coin locker character.

What's the screen on the far right of the first picture for?

I'd have been interested in buying this edition, if it wasn't so expensive. I'm looking forward to the game, but $200 is too much.

BTW for the guys discussing a sale, the games 86% off on Gameplanet US:

Bizarre, it actually looks pretty cool in-game, but stupid terrible in the CGI video.

Was the first part of that clip really from Battlefield?

Tyranthraxus posted...

The second game while it was originally a DSi title was also released extremely early on the 3DS eShop. It was one of the first games available to purchase. I don't think it was there on launch day but it was extremely early.

It should have been available from the launch of the eShop. The Nintendo eShop for 3DS supported DSi ware titles, and the version available on 3DS was the DSi version. I probably should of mentioned that it was available to play on 3DS too.

There was an 8 year gap between the first two games, the first was a Game Boy Colour game released quite a while after the Game Boy Advance, and the second was a DSi game. They were both quite well received by those who played them, but the way they were released meant not a ton of people played them. The series really got more mainstream gaming attention with the development of the third game, which came out in 2014. This is probably why the series seems younger than it is to you.

What mushrooms are we talking about?

Trumble posted...

So, if I'm understanding right, this simply allows businesses to use them, and does not affect eg. public signage, nor does it force use of imperial units?

If so, I don't really see the problem, beyond that only boomer shops are actually likely to make use of this.

They can already use Imperial units. They just also have to show the metric conversion.

I'll check out reviews, but there's a good chance I'll get it.

The police filed charges so it appeared to be the case at the time and her concealing two weapons is enough to take the story serious by the police.

1) Police in the UK don't file charges. The Crown Prosecution Service, does.
2) She was charged with possession of a bladed weapon, not attempted robbery.

Are you implying police should or do have psychic powers?

Nope. I just read the article and paid attention to it, unlike you it appears.

IXI_Fission_IXI posted...

She shouldn't have weapons and be using them to attempt robberies of other children.

She didn't use them to attempt robberies of other children. That's why she was found not guilty.

IXI_Fission_IXI posted...

Neither of those are excuses to have weapons at school.

She didn't have weapons at school.

Only life in prison? Hes an enemy combatant

I think life in prison is the worse thing they can do, without violating the Geneva Convention.

ZeroV2 posted...

if he didnt follow orders he is imprisoned. If he does follow orders he is imprisoned. Whats the best option?

Don't murder an innocent person. It seems very obvious to me. If your options are "murder an innocent person and go to jail for life" and "don't murder an innocent person and go to jail for life" the second option is far better.

"Why aren't you as mad at China and Saudi Arabia as you are at us" is a weak as fuck defense

Yeah but, "You're Jewish so you obviously support Israel" is an anti-Semitic belief.

Not too bad, but nothing about fly speed, so probably no more than my run speed.

Just think about the career opportunities, all those unknown languages can be translated by you.

I though Hermione was already Black in the Harry Potter And The Cursed Child stage play.

Anyone enjoying there cereal then you see pictures of steak, shrimp, burgers or soup and suddenly you dont feel like eating your cereal.

Personally, no I've never had that issue. Anyway Granola is my preferred cereal.

NeonOctopus posted...

They probably do that cuz last time they released a normal console to directly compete with PS2 and Xbox, they did the worst out of the 3. So they feel like if they make different console, they can make their own niche in the market and attract the Xbox vs. PS consumers as a side product.

Nintendo was trying to be innovative with the Gamecube. The pressure sensitive shoulder buttons, and the way it emphasised the A button over the others. Also the sticks being so clearly different to each other. They also had plans for it to support 3D TVs and motion controls.

Tyranthraxus posted...

They're gonna have to make deals with every club to maintain the status quo. You might lose a team or an entire league if they think the league isn't worth the money.

IIRC they already do that as they need to as FIFA doesn't have the rights to the players.

Noraneko_Vel posted...

The original just states it as an opinion, it sounds natural there. Just because you hear "LBGT" in Japanese audio doesn't mean the meaning wasn't skewed.
The localization specifically makes it sound way more factual and obnoxious.

It looks like an opinion to me in this example, and fairly natural, but I haven't read the VN so maybe context changes that.

NFTs seem to show some very real value to artists, since they get can get a kickback on any future sellings of their work. I see the value in that.

They can do that if the contract they sell it under does that, and they don't need NFTs to have a contract that does that.
