because if anyone can make a movie for $50k and show it to the masses and make 200mil then the studios would lose their controlled market. and since they have no way of knowing which indie film will be a success they can't justify marketing all of them and losing money on 50% of them.

if they buy all 100 movies and distribute all of them, only 20% will be successful, if they buy all 100 movies and only distribute 20 of them, they have a chance for 80% of them to be successful since there is that much less actual content for people to see.

makes sense from an accounting point of view right? well business is the only thing they really care about.

Comparing men and women in the same job is not the end of the story. There is also the fact that fewer men are in the higher paying management jobs because those jobs aren't being offered to men. Women with the same amount of experience and talent move up the corporate ladder; men don't.

yes, if he did worse... in athletics you try to do better each time, when you start to decline you either turn to coaching or do something other than sports.

everything that has a beginning has an end, the sign of the end is decline. but keep holding onto that dream.. maybe you could dig up some advice from older apple employees as well.

i'll let you borrow my shovel.

instead of purposely hampering control of movement via a controller.. allow USB mice and keyboards to be used for all games regardless of console or PC.

I don't understand why the reluctance to provide an interface for gamers who want to use a keyboard and mouse. it is clearly the superior control scheme for shooters and modern consoles have built in USB support. it's like forcing ice skaters to use high heels and suing the manufacturers of skates.

Can anyone explain why they won't let people just use kb/mouse instead? it would veen cost as much as shown now by people having to purchase a 100$ hub in order to use kb/mouse.

as someone who doesn't have both thumbs, controllers just don't work for me.. i can only use a kb/mouse combo.

when she proclaims herself to actually be a woman (born) and rallies against anyone who isn't a "born" woman and tells others how to live based on her life as a woman when she was born a man? yes there is an issue with it.

haha you just did the same thing you were decrying?

and by dismissing his source without in anyway giving examples that it is not factual, you prove you know it is a good source of information.

why?

because the only thing you can do is try to discredit it and him with ad-hominems.

he was using pronouns for a man, that's probably why you were confused.

" just that you probably don't have the balls to act how you feel without anonymity"

so by your definition these death threats were by default not credible or serious.

that's right, white women liberals only start fights at right wing functions in order to bird dog them, everyone knows this.

apparently it is because you got it wrong. they found the threat to be serious enough to investigate but not credible enough to be actionable.

let me explain the difference.

If i report that doug has threatened to murder me, well murder is a serious crime and people who threaten it sometimes end up murdering those they threaten.

so the police found the threat serious enough to investigate but when they found that doug is my neighbor's chicken, the threat of murder wasn't credible.

because the threat wasn't credible they did not pursue prosecution.

hope that helps show the difference between brianna crying wolf and that being serious enough for the FBI to investigate and her being batshit crazy and/or full of shit and justly the FBI deeming her maniacal rantings not credible.

then neither is comcast internet a monopoly because you can get time warner instead.

although they provide the same service options and charge the same exact price, they are technically not monopolies.

i don't see what the difference is otherwise.

if you are going to quote someone, it is standard to provide ellipses when it is a partial quote, then people know there is more to the quote than just the words you decided to cut.

example:

"that's why im never going to be popular" - Macdude

it's sad because it's completely believable.

also the article is pretty infammitory, the facts are presented correctly and succinctly , but there is no pause for insensitive naming of sexual preferences.
