I'm of two minds. I love the convenience of 24/7, but we were JUST THERE. we saw just how much the corpos will demand in order to keep staffing for all 24 hours. People need time off, and they deserve for it to be consistent and "normal". That doesn't happen if the corporations have a say in a 24 hour shift.

I'd love to see expanded hours not being 24/7, but having different start times. No reason every shop has to open at 6am, some can open at 6, some at 8, some 10, etc, and with a similarly staggered closing time, we can have the convenience of having things open when we're available, and not have every minute of our lives scheduled by a corporation.

Obviously there is still a case for overnight shifts. Emergency work, for example. And we need some support for those people working in an industry that has to be always open. I don't know that there's a good solution to compromise on both situations without just an excessive amount of regulation.

-those who didn't expect this to be in ternary?

Witcher 3 and cp2077 definitely had what i'd consider full sex scenes. Like, you don't have full on piv, but it's about as close as, say, TV typically gets.

in this case the very post your commenting on has the artist admitting that is the way he actually felt at the time so in this case it's quite literal.

What does it matter if it's literal? That's the entire point I'm making. People say and feel things that they shouldn't act on all the time.

So, what's the point in saying he actually felt those things at the time? If I'm missing it so broadly, fill me in. Why does it matter that he said those things?

If it's not wrong, what's your point? Why's it got you all in a twist if it's not wrong? People don't put in such a show condemning a thing if they don't think it's wrong, so either grow a spine and stand by what you're clearly projecting into the world, or stop moaning.

This shit is art, not a literal retelling of a thing that happened. Even if it does mirror the thoughts and feelings at the time, it's absolutely still embellished, and even if it wasn't, no one was hurt (except arguably Hailey, again different argument) so I really don't see the problem.

Yes, the lyrics are about wanting to kill his wife, and about his feelings at the time.

But neither of those things is wrong. You're allowed to want to do those things, the important part is what you actually do. Such as writing a song about it instead. The entire point of art, or at least one of them, is to take these strong, raw emotions and do something with them besides the strong, raw thing you truly want to. These violent lyrics don't mean he believes murder is right or others should murder. If he thought that, he'd probably have murdered his wife, instead of writing a fantasy, a fiction, about it.

Now, we can make an argument that using Hailey in the song is a bit off, sure. That is not, and has never been, your argument however.

Tell me you don't understand art without telling me you don't understand art.

I think the assholery entirely derives from where in the lot they are. First half of rows? Fuckin asshole. Ass end of the lot? You're fine. I'm not gonna assume this person doesn't have a reason for owning a larger vehicle, that'd be unreasonable. I'll judge based on the actual information present, and it seems like they're at least TRYING.

That's one thing I love about shadowruns setting. You have all the races, but they don't really have to have a space carved out for them, since humans just became these races literally overnight. They just fit in with society as human, but...

You found the point. It's not about having it scale to the level the official servers are at. It's about preserving it in some fashion, so that the dedicated few can still experience it. We don't need thousands, we need a few dozen. And, if developers develop with this design philosophy - that eventually the game servers will be shut down and we have to release a hostable version at end of life, then the games can be written from the ground up with that implementation in mind.

Bud, you're in for a haaaaaaaaaaaarsh awakening if you think all of those negatives in your second paragraph isn't exactly what the states are, magnified.
