General Memes & Private Chuckle@lemmy.dbzer0.com•The Best Kind of Plot 👍
1·6 days agoThe conclusion to 2013’s The Last of Us, in which Joel refuses to sacrifice Ellie (whose body would have been used to try to stop the virus), is inspired by Israeli history. On the official PlayStation podcast for the game, Druckmann referenced the 2011 exchange of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit for 1,027 prisoners. Druckmann said of the choice Joel makes, “If it was to save a strange kid, maybe Joel would have made a very different decision. But when it was his tribe, his daughter, there was no question about what he was going to do.”
According to Neil Druckman

“It was inspired by, not based on,” Druckmann said of The Last of Us Part II and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Ok, sure.

13·6 days agoI hate TLOU for being Zionist propaganda but I also hate it because the story is shitty and has this trope at the end of game 2.
Beverly Hills by Weezer. Before that I kind of liked some of their singles but after I just hate them as people on a primal level.

News@lemmy.world•Trump tells Iran to sign deal with US or ‘the whole country is going to get blown up’
11·14 days agoAll very good points.
My “teamwork” comment would work if there was a “no kings” rally but with guns and it was a march on Washington. Obviously that would be borderline impossible to organize but at this point I think a loud enough public call to action (maybe by a celeb) could actually make it happen.
As far as doing it like James Bond, I don’t think there would be an escape there. It would be a suicide mission, accepting that you’ll die is part of it.
Your comment never touched on fertilizer bombs like Timothy Mcvay (would be tough to get close but not impossible). Especially with an MMA event happening on the front lawn of the white house soon.

News@lemmy.world•Trump tells Iran to sign deal with US or ‘the whole country is going to get blown up’
1·15 days agoNah, that was in reply to the person saying it would be hard to do. It’s a counterexample meant to allude to the second amendment and what it was intended for, not a direct call to action, Agent Smith.
Early PUBG was one of the best gaming experiences of my life. Totally agree, they took what was great and enshittified it massively but still made way more money from micro transactions (by having a massively expanded player base for being free and accessible).
My goat is socom 2 though. That game rocked the entire time.

6·15 days agoIt’s rare. Off duty SAS guy did work in Kenya that one time. Saved a bunch of people.

Mobile is but there are micro transactions everywhere. They likely make a shit ton of money off that because people are stupid.
Pubg is only up there because it’s on pc / Xbox / PlayStation / and mobile.

Old rogan was fine. It was just silly stoners getting high and bsing about aliens and which animal would win in a fight. It was stupid but entertaining. He wasn’t always a right wing dingus.
