Fair enough. I did play PC at launch but that was like almost 9 years ago so I don't really remember much

IIRC GTA V had basically no issues at launch. RDR2 had some crashing issues, but otherwise it's like one of the best optimized and most scalable PC ports I've ever seen.

Just the trailer itself includes two direct parodies of real Florida people (the tatted guy on TV and the woman with two hammers)

Nah, that's too far. You're talking like 2028 there for the next gen consoles. PC probably gonna come 6-12 months later, like almost always.

Rockstar has done nothing but actual in-game footage for trailers since like GTA3. So, yeah, that shit is fucking insane. Doesn't even look like a PS5 could run it.

Tbh, I expect the singleplayer to be a massive improvement over V, which lacked a lot of the small things that really make a GTA game for me. We've already seen some pretty cool stuff in the leaks, like a more limited weapon inventory returning (looks to be somewhere between the old GTA style pre-V and RDR2) and most excitingly for me: fishing. But seriously, I think, depending on what you disliked/found underwhelming about V, VI might end up improving in those areas.

The thing that gets me is how little creators actually get per individual ad view. Now, collectively, with tens of thousands and millions of views, they get a good bag. But my watchtimes of that minute worth of ads per video? Literally nothing. A fraction of a cent so small it doesn't exist. I could watch a creator semi-regularly for like 2 years and my contribution to their income by watching ads would be in the single digits. I give them two bucks over Patreon or something just once and that's worth as much as me giving up hours upon hours of my life watching ads. Now, I can't afford to give literally everyone I watch more than once a dollar or two. But I give some money here and there to a couple I watch a lot. To make up for my using an adblocker.

Honestly, I'd probably get YouTube Premium if it wasn't fucking Google behind it.

It was possibly a heart attack that caused him to drown, which wouldn't be much of a shock considering his painkiller abuse, known to cause heart problems. No drugs or alcohol on site, but it's not like his addictions didn't leave a lasting impact.

Did Duchovny have a drinking/drug problem? I know he was a sex addict (which, in retrospect, makes Mulders porn addiction a lot funnier), but otherwise he seems like he has his shit together

To be fair, stating the obvious, which she does quite a lot, is also quite advantageous. Like, sure, that Klingon Captain seems angry and insulted, but what if he's just a really good actor trying to deceive a Federation ship? When Troi goes "Yup, he's angry and insulted" that would basically be the go ahead to assume he's telling the truth and act accordingly.

But TNG writers usually only seemed to remember there was an empath on the bridge at the last second, so they just wrote in she can't sense anything
