Supermarkets really seem to be the worst about it. Our local Fred Meyer makes zero attempt to count and enforce capacity limits, and I've seen zero attempt to enforce masks either. It's a bit infuriating because the Walmart nearby actually send to be making more of an effort, which is insane.

Stores enticing companies to make them the exclusive provider of their products is a thing that's been around for an extremely long time. Especially if you're starting out in an area with little competition (where Steam had a virtual monopoly on digital PC gaming) it can help make you a little more competitive.

Don't know why we're getting all freaked out about it now.

Because if it isn't Steam, it's bad, alright?! Never mind if Steam does all the same "spyware" stuff the other launchers do. Never mind Epic gives developers a bigger cut than Steam. Never mind that Epic is constantly giving out free games. Never mind...

And being camera ready at home is one thing. But sending good morning texts to women with an ungroomed selfie is some weird shit I wouldnt believe until I saw it.

It's an at-home good morning selfie. I'd think you're trying way too hard if you got put together just for that.

Not on the same page with this one tbh. Coffee snobbery is like whiskey or beer snobbery which is 100% justified imo.

Thing is I'm a snob on every one of these levels but I also don't really know why I'm not a chickpea snob

Some of these chosen passions seem pretty arbitrary

Because alcohol (and coffee) are lucrative, high-competition, addictive markets. You're a snob because you've been told to be a snob by the companies trying to get you to purchase their product over everyone else's. A sense of superiority can be a strong selling point.

Chickpeas are just chickpeas. They aren't addictive and the market isn't cutthroat around them. That's the difference.

A lot of ignorance in this topic of what goes into software development in general.

There's no such thing as a perfectly complete game. There will always be problems here and there. Saying patches ruined gaming is incredibly dense and shows your ignorance of what goes into it.

It's also worth recognizing the nuance that often causes games to be released in a broken state - oftentimes it's due to deadlines and requirements from the publisher, not the developers.

Burly Brawl, Chateau, and Highway Chase are fantastic scenes. The revelation that there have been five "One's" before Neo, and the origin of The One. The impending attack on Zion weighing on everything. It's a really well put together movie.

Also, the effects hold up surprisingly well for a movie getting near to 20 years old.

That's not toxic masculinity, that's just dumb kids being dumb.

This. Literally less than half of people lose their virginity by the end of high school. It used to be slightly higher, but still it wasn't ever so high it was something anyone should feel bad about.

Masculinity and the stereotypical expectations for male sexual activity do play into this. "You're not a man until you have sex" and "you're a loser if you haven't had sex by the end of high school" are common refrains, and are firmly rooted in toxic masculinity.

In 2020 any masculinity is considered to be toxic masculinity.

It's funny when people are sensitive when talking about masculinity. The irony.

For real. The blind spots some people have towards themselves are always interesting.

Those are both classics, but for my money there are few logic puzzles/riddles better than the Island of Green-Eyes Dragons:

You visit a remote desert island inhabited by one hundred very friendly dragons, all of whom have green eyes. They haven't seen a human for many centuries and they are very excited about your visit. They show you around their island and tell you all about their dragon way of life (dragons can talk, of course).
They seem to be quite normal, as far as dragons go, but then you find out something rather odd. They have a rule on the island which states that if a dragon ever finds out that he/she has green eyes, then at precisely midnight on the day of this discovery, he/she must relinquish all dragon powers and transform into a long-tailed sparrow. However, there are no mirrors on the island, and they never talk about eye color, so the dragons have been living in blissful ignorance throughout the ages.
Upon your departure, all the dragons get together to see you off and in a tearful farewell you thank them for being such hospitable dragons. Then you decide to tell them something that they all already know (for each can see the colors of the eyes of the other dragons). You tell them all that at least one of them has green eyes. Then you leave, not thinking of the consequences (if any).
Assuming that the dragons are (of course) infallibly logical, what happens? If something interesting does happen, what exactly is the new information that you gave the dragons?

Nothing happens? You're not giving them any new information, and nothing you're giving them solidifies what each individual dragon's eye color is, so even if they were blind and couldn't see the other dragons' eyes, they couldn't be any more logically assured of their own eye color.

This feels like the obvious-but-wrong answer, but it's all I've got at 2am.

I wonder if they're owned by the same parent brand somewhere up the chain.

Anyway, I recently discovered that I actually really like their hot sauce. There's actually some good flavor with the heat, instead of just heat.

Classic riddles like this are good. Can't stand gotcha riddles that always get posted here. Something that requires good logical reasoning and multi-step deducing is what makes a great riddle.

Wait, it did actually get made and released? For some reason I thought it was cancelled or lost in limbo.

Yeah, it finally came out with no fanfare on Netflix. It's live-action actors, but when they go into the computer, it's CGI.

Hmm. After googling, maybe I have watched some of it, and I just completely blocked it out because it was that bad. It looks somewhat familiar.

They actually made one a couple of years ago. It was weird. They actually met the player who sends the Game Cubes, and he's a stereotypical manchild who still lives in his mom's basement.

Seeing a character people loved for decades get shit on, character assassinated, and made into a fucking bitch ass coward is not something people forget or forgive.

Disney even gets the ST is not viable which is why they have retreated to the PT and OT era.
