Let's hope it's extra bold. The last one was decidedly UNBOLD.

The cars must have been driven into the boat instead of using a crane. That means those cars had fuel and oil, combined with the battery shorting out from sea water, they were destined for bad things.

Why wouldn't he wait then? If he's waited 12 years so far, why not wait the extra year or two to avoid any charges? He's instead agreed to plead guilty. Sounds instead like he realized he would never win the stalemate and was tired of house arrest.

he states that the industry is seeing "quite a bit of pushback" from players when it comes to devs reusing systems and assets, which may pressure developers to make certain things from scratch for a sequel when there might not really be a need to.

Who knew that people don't want a small number of different mob types that are reskinned to be the same enemy in a different color? Why do gamers have to be so picky with their need for "variety"?

Our parents and their parents all tried to conform to a type of idyllic family stereotype that was never attainable. Family members were ignored and ostracized for behaving outside that stereotype. Excuses like "it's a fad" started specifically because of the need to explain away the behavior without allowing any follow up questions.

It took a long time but we are finally able to embrace our differences and recognize what's actually normal. Conservatives are still fighting to live that unattainable lifestyle and mad at everyone else cause they can't.

It's funny how ignoring homelessness and begging for 100 years hasn't discouraged it yet.

A monopoly is also called a trust and to quote Wiki: "antitrust law is a collection of mostly federal laws that regulate the conduct and organization of businesses in order to promote competition and prevent unjustified monopolies."

Trust busting means breaking up corporate monopoly or oligopoly.

Dune was rumored to be unfilmable with the Lynch movies and SyFy miniseries costing more than they made. No one followed up Dune with a twin film because no one thought it would be good and draw in non-nerds.

With nothing to compete against, Dune was able to be the success. Dune may have set off a minor sci-fi production push but nothing like the Star Wars generated sci-fi hype train of the 70s and 80s.

Also, Foundation is owned by Apple and part of the content for AppleTV. Dune may very well not move the needle for execution producers to spend effort and money on sci-fi properties.

Imagine training for a war like the Korean War, artillery and waves of people shooting at you, then you deploy and see a lone Mavik flying above. Those NK troops have no idea what is going to happen and every single one of them will die confused.

Oh, there's noticeable differences but the people who care don't know and and the people who know don't care.

Look at what a ruinous libel suit will do to motherfuckers. It's beautiful man.
