I agree with you, electric bikes belong on the road.

Spitz conveniently ignoring that they told people there's nothing wrong with the PSN connectivity and that the players are all a bunch of big whiners. They may have done a heel face turn, but they still have to deal with the consequences of their actions as a heel.

It is a shame that those story relevant events are inaccessible, but I never played them, and I understand things perfectly well. The bosses' assassination missions explain their deal very succinctly. Salad is a sadistic tech CEO. Regor is a sexy geneticist. Kela runs the prize fights. The Sergeant is a punk ass bitch. The only weird boss is Sargus Ruk, now that the Tenno have been rewritten as superheroes instead of mercenaries. Oh, and corrupted Vor, but he's such a meme he doesn't need to make sense. He's funny anyway.

I also got back into the game after a long hiatus and it's fun. The new story stuff is great. One of my friends had a similar reaction to you to The Second Dream, but there's a 2016 quest called The War Within that really fleshes out and redeems that writing choice and now my friend likes the Second Dream reveal.

This post is mostly just complaining that putting the new story quests in front of the old story quests breaks continuity.

What if Amazon sold TTS voice packages that can read any novel in your catalogue? "Hello yes I would like the James Earl Jones voice package and every Star Wars book ever written please." But the existing audiobook storefront still had only audiobooks read by real people in it, protecting their jobs.

You seen the Black Mirror episode where she makes a robot of her dead husband?

People need to process their grief and move on. It's important. You use AI to create a world where people never grieve, you'll create a world that never moves on. Never improves. Stuck in the past, trying endlessly to recapture something that doesn't exist in the present and cannot grow in the future.

There's an AI tool that lets you talk to your ex. You put in your chats, it creates an AI of your ex, and you can talk to them, even date them. Thing is, it's a business. They want your money. They're going to exploit you sooner or later. Imagine how much bigger the market is with lost loved ones. Capitalists should NOT be selling love. It's dangerous.

Let me rephrase the issue for you and see if you have a different emotional reaction.

A person's job was replaced with a capitalist's robot, and now the capitalist earns all the money.

The Devil invented Heaven so they could send all the annoying Christians there

Nihilism is the brain child of philosophy

But so is existentialism, absurdism, cynicism, and whatever Nietzsche was on about, which all refute nihilism.

This is soulism

Barry has standing in that destruction of natural habitats in the area surrounding his hive has impacted his colony's ability to thrive. His colony is a victim of colonialism. If he can prove that his colony is descended from an earlier colony which cultivated plant life in the New York area that was deforested by humans, then he may be able to argue that his colony is owed a certain amount of land. Charging rent from the human businesses on that land so he can buy honey, Barry would be able to supply his colony with enough honey to get us to the end of the movie's plot.

It's a little more complicated than what we actually saw, but the logic is sound.

Well I'm ace, I hate 99% of those songs, and I hate birdsong.
