The fact that we are talking about a spectrum and not a binary absolutely does change the underlying point though.

Don't forget commercials. The commercials on HULU are louder than anything in the show.

Sadly, the same can be said about high school algebra.

To which coincidence do you refer?

is a a few steps removed from having a bill that's likely to pass through this Senate any time soon, and it's certainly miles away from actually having a law on the books already. That's the difference . . as opposed to your Hasbro example, which should be covered by Toy Safety Act of 1984 which actually became law as part of H.R.5818 .

That's quite an asinine take you have there. Officials repeatedly making highly dubious calls do not make games more interesting. Getting the calls right and letting the players (the ones that actually make it a human endeavor) set their own fortunes based on their skills and previously agreed upon rules is what makes the games interesting. Maybe that's why world series viewership have been on the decline for 50 years?

As opposed to what? 4 dimensional donuts? Aren't all donuts are 3-dimensional?

In what way does that excerpt refute anything GP said? It definitely sounds like the EDAU is breaking into phones. The only question is whether it is warrantless and/or without due process, which the except is silent on.

How about the taxpayers that are actively defending it.

How is this different then what the rest of the world does? Why not just promote 1) direct deposit 2) online bill-pay and 3) debit card transactions? Those 3 get you pretty far towards a cashless society.

If we wanna go that route, I'd say the jump from "not having a monitor" to "having a monitor" probably trumps anything else.

I assume by "tackle" you mean "give a strong talking to, while looking very stern, indeed."

Clarification already given. Rahkar made it completely clear by immediately comparing digital to "physical copies" in the very next sentence fragment. But you knew that. You just wanted to go on some off-topic rant that no one cares about because why? It is incredibly obvious that the comment in question can be summarized as: "Digital games are worth far less than physical copies to me, except maybe when it comes to Steam. They add value that other forms of digital do not."

"last year" and "last March" are two different things. The last year was 2019. The last March was March of 2020. You aren't being pedantic. You're being wrong.
