i guess he makes sure companies that buy licenses from his company are compliant with the EULA so they don't get in any legal issues.

But they're not accountable for a contract post-purchase.

everyone who got invaded by russia is?was a nazi
you see how confusing that is to just hate all nazis

there are plenty of war criminals to hate, not just every nazi or every soviet for being in the army at the time
there was so much propaganda and stuff going on with poland most of the nazi's thought they were the good guys or at least better than the soviets

If only Nazis are nazis, then the average nazi is pretty bad. If you include everything down to a fat scot doing dog tricks as a nazi, the average nazi is an eyerolling nuisance.

It does though, what with it identifying beliefs.

This also applies to transgenders, double standard much?

Your bile is what makes it funny, stop being unpleasant and it won't be funny to wind you up.

Just replace the word Nazis with something like jews, black people or sjws and the sign its self would cause outrage.

That's pretty reasonable. Being jewish, black, or an SJW isn't inherently a bad thing. Being a Nazi is. When did we start forgetting that Nazis are bad people?

When everybody was labelled one.

lolwut? No. A troll vandalizing a poster has no comparable value with actual Nazis. And no, not even the neo portion here is necessarily applicable because you don't know if it was being done on the basis of racial hatred or just to provoke a negative reaction.

A warning or heads up serves literally no purpose. What a weird topic.

To draw out the main. Thanks.

Why did this need to be a topic

Do they think all the unused wrapping paper is thrown away?

Data collection most likely.

That would make sense. I could see that. But then why not have all options?

Couldnt they still get that from sales at the store. Like most food places I worked, or know of, seem to use computer touch screen for ordering. It could easily send the daily sales to someone.

I've always hated using it that loosely. If you use it that loosely it serves no purpose existing as a term outside table top games. Because in video games that covers the vast majority.

Im opposed to being overly strict about it too but will generally concede to some games just have some or alot of RPG traits but not all. If being strict though I'd say a RPG needs stats leveling up equipment character classes some form of rng affecting gameplay like which stats level up and how much or if an attack/skill works and a blank slate character you get to make up, name class and if you wish back story.

Think of it this way:

Lab meat is still cow meat but it may be okay for vegetarians as an animal doesn't have to be harmed to make it.

I mean you have to spend years studying anatomy and understanding the human body, how do you get good at drawing children without references?

Are F*** Nazis anything like Grammar Nazis?

That said, "Nazis" doesn't mean Nazis anyway, it's just an insult used against anybody they disagree with so f*** her.

The insult that people are sheep is cliche for a reason. Because it's true.
Many cannot or don't think for themselves.

And some of the worst people when it comes to not thinking for themselves are the people most convinced that they are thinking for themselves, and who love to shit on everyone else out of their own misguided sense of perceived superiority.

It's not to do with feeling good, you do the correct thing because it's correct, it's an intellectual decision sacrificing your current interest to serve the intellectual priority.

Let me know when you prove that cocaine directly triggers motor nerves and intelligently directs you to more drugs outside of your control.

Nah, from the morphine doing nothing and the hospital not upping the dosage further as they determined I was resistant.

To be fair, these are the same people that changed a mental illness in to a physical one to appease public opinion

Not sure if serious...

By having a f***ing life.

Develop shame, motivation outside of self-satisfaction. Make your life harder for yourself than withdrawal from addiction does.

There's no study that proves that addiction makes you lose physical control of your body and forcibly re-use.

I use my own experience as I don't feel the need to cite studies proving common knowledge.

A drug baby can stop whenever its parents stop supplying, their personal addiction isn't even relevant.

There's a thing called free speech and I'll continue to exercise it.

Meaning it's harder to get fired than flunk out?

...lolwut? A lot of employers DO ask for and look at GPAs for recent grads. It's only when somebody has been in the workforce for years that it stops being a thing or, at least, becomes a less frequent occurrence although it *still* happens. Hell, when my brother was looking for another job in sales, one of the listings wanted 5+ years of sales experience AND asked for both a high school and college GPA.

That's more freshman s*** with word counts.

Do you even know why they started calling it a disease in the first place?

It's because they realized that making people feel guilty contributed to addiction.

So when you put them in the mindset of "It's not my fault, I have a disease" instead of "I'm a piece of s***" it removes the responsibility from the person. It's not because it's actually a disease.

Looking for sources right now, but there was a study done in vermont where they paid people who had a long history of chronic addiction $500 a week if they could pass a drug test every day. I'm pretty sure this study lasted for a year. And they had a near 100% success rate.

If addiction IS a disease, then it's the only one in existence that can be cured with money.

People like you wanna write two paragraphs about this song that's not about rape and then ignore all the rap that's rapey because it's okay because a white guy didn't write it

Does that mean the song should be banned? No. If nothing else, there are far worse songs out there that nobody thinks twice about.

I thought the controversial line was "Say, what's in this drink?"

Addiction doesn't remove responsibility, you can stop at any time and failure to do so means you are a failure.

My only experience is my dad on a 60 a day habit who quit cold turkey the day he couldn't smoke inside. Literally quit out of convenience, so I have a hard time taking addicts seriously.

And those who were prescribed a reasonable dose of opioids because they were the best option for them and subsequently developed an addiction to them?

See

DrCidd posted...

Alright, you got me, I can shoot someone up with heroin against their will to the point that they become physically addicted to it. That still doesn't make it a disease.

It's like you didn't bother reading the topic.

That doesn't mean my addiction is a disease.

1. a disordered or incorrectly functioning organ, part, structure, or system of the body resulting from the effect of genetic or developmental errors, infection, poisons, nutritional deficiency or imbalance, toxicity, or unfavorable environmental factors; illness; sickness; ailment.

You can't become a drug addict unless you choose abuse drugs. Nobody ever became a drug addict because their genetics decided so, or because an opioid molecule was floating through the air.

it's not supposed to be literal

Yes, preselection.

what do you mean?

What the hell sort of paper are you writing.

It's a really beautiful metaphor I got from this Marine officer

It's an essay about progression, it goes something like
you start off as a dull pocket knife, grow into a butter knife, then you become a sharp regular knife, then a bowie knife, and finally you graduate to a samurai sword. my english teacher said I should finish my essay on a note about growing into something that's sharper than a samurai sword.

I decided to just take the easy way out and write "So I can grow sharper than the edge of a samurai sword" or something like that

thanks guys I guess or not cuz y'all neva help me

I hope by this time next year those execs will be begging for change on San Francisco's busiest street corner.

They won't. They'll just be getting their hefty severance pay.

What exactly was the point of legally adopting him?

Both have an effort requirement and a payoff. Just like nobody wants to get fired, nobody wants to get kicked out of school.

Now you're just pigeonholing.

Not really. The intent of the person who wrote it is what matters. It was their song, their vision, their story. They decide what it actually means. Any other modern interpretation or twisting of it's meaning is irrelevant.

Listen to the song the and you can tell the girl likes the guy and actually wants to stay

They are written as wolf and mouse because as everybody knows predators and prey is a consensual arrangement.

It can be, but that's an arrangement that requires previously-granted consent and a great deal of mutual trust, including a guaranteed way out if the need arises.

Show me the video of the mouse being chased by a cat, dog or wolf where the mouse is assisting its own demise. Usually, from all the evidence Ive seen, mice run when the threat of being eaten is upon them.

Nothing about the song implies any sort of rape or non consensual vibes

In principle it's not a terrible idea. But in practice, it's going to be a disaster.

I mean, it'd be fine if it also addressed the root causes of unemployment, thereby ensuring that everyone who needs food stamps also has access to a qualifying job. That'd be great, even. As it stands, though, this is more likely to cause a rise in crime as people who can't find work resort to stealing in order to eat.

Well we gotta compensate for relaxing drug laws to keep people in prison
