Chachi posted:Crossposting from the funny pictures thread Lawbreakers isn't even a bad game. I played it in the free weekend a couple of weeks ago. It's dead, not because it's bad, but because it has a core mechanic (how to move in zero-G) that it doesn't explain to the players. So the one out of three hundred players that figures out how to do it dominates those sections of the game, everyone else has no idea why they're constantly dying, and stop playing. Then the one player who figured it out then has no one to play against, so they stop playing as well.

He was caught by two witnesses raping the girl behind a dumpster, as I recall. What possible evidence could he have to appeal?

The funny part is that even if he won the whole country knows his name and his stupid face is infamous everywhere. The sexual predator moniker will follow him around the rest of his life no matter what.

Man gets 4 weeks suspension for mistake? Is that the Schaden? Or the Freude? Or what? Is Brian Ross a jerk or something? Maybe YOU should be suspended for bad reporting

On one hand, accurate reporting is important and there should be real consequences and public admission of failures. On the other hand, just lol if anyone thinks there's any kind of consistency at ABC, let alone across the entire news reporting industry.

Cpt_Obvious posted:Man gets 4 weeks suspension for mistake? Is that the Schaden? Or the Freude? Or what? Is Brian Ross a jerk or something? From the NYT article about it: "Brian Ross, the chief investigative correspondent for ABC News, has been suspended for four weeks without pay after incorrectly reporting that Michael T. Flynn, the former national security adviser, would testify that President Trump had directed him to make contact with Russian officials while Mr. Trump was still a candidate, the network announced on Saturday." I think it wasn't so much telling a lie as tipping the hand.

Misreporting is serious business...but other reportage is saying Flynn reported to Kushner, not Trump himself. ABC News is dinging him for potentially exposing them to a slander suit that they'd lose if his original assertion were false.

Surely this is a chance to put some of our tax dollars to work and simultaneously support our men and women in uniform by sending in a battalion of tanks or squadron of attack helicopters to finish the job.

I think most of what we know about the Caesars is from Suetonius and he just kinda slammed everyone that his employers didn't like or had grudges against their old families or what not. I'm sure that's a gross oversimplification, but I've had a few people tell me it's basically the best info we have on those emperors, but it's like reading the gossip column of an entertainment magazine.

Reading history from Ancient Rome is hard as balls because there were no standards or "peer review" for anything, so historians would gleefully invent bullshit about people they hated.

Yeah, as the successor of Claudius and the last member of the first dynasty of Roman Emperors, there was a lot of justification for historians (especially Suetonius) to play fast and loose with the facts if it would make the sitting Emperor look better in comparison. The most compelling account of the Great Fire comes from Tacitus, who says Nero wasn't even in Rome at the time; when he heard about the fire, he rushed back and opened public buildings and his private holdings to accommodate refugees, and personally organized relief efforts. I somehow have an even harder time imagining Trump doing that. (The contemporary rumors that he'd had the fire set in order to clear land for a planned palace are somewhat undercut by the fact that the fire started on the wrong side of the Palatine Hill and substantially damaged one of his favorite existing holdings.)

That practice was probably considered super progressive for the time, coming after thousands of years of Egyptian precedent of straight-up damnatio memoriae.
