This better be tail call optimized

Random people who just want to get into a position of power don't pass.

Not sure about rural towns but I'm pretty sure this is the case in most cities/big towns in the US as well. It's just that police training in the US tends to systemically filter decent human beings out of its system. Not exactly random, more like maximally bad by design 🙃

Entertainment is not a necessity, it's not like people need it to survive. When it doesn't move with wages people find ways to make it affordable (e.g. piracy, 2nd hand markets, or sharing physical copies with friends), or they find something else (steam, indie games, etc.). Wages are directly responsible for game prices in a lot of ways, and there are pretty good Steam statistics on this as well (which is why a lot of Steam games aren't priced with 1:1 conversions in different regions, because doing so would basically price entire regions out of buying games).

Pricing fans out of games is exactly how AAA studios go under. A big AAA game flopping is basically a death sentence for a studio in the current landscape, and if Microsoft isn't immune to that then Nintendo definitely isn't.

It doesn't matter if a $60 game in 2008 is worth $88 now if wages haven't gone up to match that. Did you know that (at least in the US) food prices usually aren't included in inflation calculations because they fluctuate too much? People have other things to pay for with their wages that aren't video games, and those costs aren't going down either.

Now that I can get behind

You say that like Nintendo ever puts their games on sale

I think I'll pass on $80 for Mario kart ($90 for a cartridge) ngl, it can't be that much better 😭

I wouldn't be surprised if my town was the exception and not the norm (I'm from a relatively progressive town in a consistently blue state) but at my public high school I only knew of 1-2 people out of the 500 people in my grade that stood up during the pledge of allegiance and a good percentage of the grade hated them because they were high key homophobic.

Doesn't W3C already maintain the ActivityPub protocol?

Edit: nevermind I misunderstood this

Am I the only one who sees this as a sloth instead of a helmet?

Yes? Ok maybe I'm going crazy

This has to be bait... I refuse to believe someone would see this meme and think it's trying to say that people are literally being stabbed.

From the article

The first five implants took place last year in the US and all received donor hearts before being discharged from hospital, with the longest time in between implant and transplant 27 days.

Seems like the initial trials are using it as a temporary measure until a donor heart can be transplanted
