Oooh... that's what Spirit forgot to do. Beat up their passengers. They were offering an incomplete experience.

Gee, it's almost like offering absolute shit service, making everything an additional fee, constantly canceling flights, and never being on-time is a poor business model. Who knew?

Define "New." Like last year or so? For scifi:

Dune 1 & 2

The Wild Robot

Furiosa

Ghostbusters Frozen Empire

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

In that order, more or less. Aliens Romulus is not terrible but there's a movie with virtually the same plot that's a lot better called Alien (1979) that you should watch instead.

For fantasy:

Poor Things

Wonka

The Marvels

Poor Things is a real treat. Wonka is a musical. Marvels is superhero fantasy and Sci fi mixed.

Evil phase? No, it's draw phase, standby phase, main phase 1, battle phase, main phase 2, end phase.

LOL. You're right, if they make Massachusetts worse than Oklahoma then Oklahoma's ranking would improve! I never thought about that. BRILLIANT!

I hate having to explain this to people when I talk about the insane cost of healthcare in the US.

"but US healthcare is the best so of course it's going to be the most expensive"

No, you moron. It's the exact same procedure by equally qualified doctors using the same equipment.

In case you're wondering why you're getting down voted, it's because you didn't even offer up a valid argument and instead engaged in ad hominem, which is a logical fallacy.

I get that correlation does not necessarily mean causation, but if the richest states are almost all blue and the poorest ones almost all red, that is a very strong correlation and trying to claim it is insignificant only makes you seem the fool.

You seem to be intelligent. Ask yourself why this post made you so upset.

First of all, "all counties were red/blue" is not what "unanimous" means.

I agree with you there.

Second of all, I don't think "ha ha your state is poor" is the grand slam argument you think it is.

Takes a lot of mental gymnastics to boil down all the listed differences as "state is poor". Unless you mean "poor" as in "in bad shape" and not "economically suffering". I'll assume you mean the former as that's the only way your argument makes sense.

I think it's more about how a state is voting against its own interests. There is NOTHING about the Republican platform that would improve any of the listed metrics. If anything, Republican politics would only further worsen an already bad state of affairs.

And of the off chance your initial argument was entirely economic, it's Democrats who want federal government involvement to help poor states.

How I imagine Elon's taking the news:

 

Probably should've just asked Wolfram Alpha

[–] Mercuri@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah. And if we're being honest, I don't like the Season Pass nonsense. Oh yay, 2 extra tractors and a harvester that probably should've been in the base game.

I think FS19 was my "countless hours" version. I did like the FS22 improvements, but since all my mods didn't work initially it felt like a step backwards.

[–] Mercuri@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I'll probably wait for a sale.

And yeah, I'm not going to be upset that people don't like the game. It's not even my favorite game. Even I think it's stupid sometimes. But for a relaxing turn my brain off and chill experience, it does that pretty well.

We could argue whether the updates and improvements are worth it, and that's a valid argument, but you admittedly have never purchased it nor will you purchase it. And that's fine. Enjoy something else, buddy :)

It's not my favorite game but your post was so egregiously wrong I thought you must have known nothing about the game itself and just made bad assumptions.

3 years is quite a long time to iterate.

I cannot even shape my head around your comment here. In your head one year isn't enough time to make any significant changes to a game but three years is quite a long time?

Anyway, you admitted you were wrong and/or lied and that's enough for me.
