The only place the OK City bombing was considered a war was inside Timothy McVeigh's diseased mind, so I would contest that his rental van was not a technical, but mostly on a technicality.

Now the question is: is this a technical?

GN sent in a unit that would need a stick and main board replacement, because the micro SD slot was also broken. If they say the case etc is also bad, they can just give a new unit and Chuck the old one, thus saving on labor and spending the same amount of money.

And she got an Oscar for it while he did not.

I believe they are canonically ten years old, yes. We were in college when he said that. I don't know how deep this goes, I stopped talking to him soon after.

One of the weirdest people I ever knew said that exact thing about why he played a girl in Pokémon games. That dude was incredibly sus.

You should look up his cult! I'm being serious, the guy has a cult. Here are the first two articles I found about it. Add that to the fact that he's the worst part of basically every movie he's in and he did shit like mail used condoms to his costars on Suicide Squad in the name of "method acting" and I feel like the general disgust with him being the main character in any movie, particularly one someone would otherwise be interested in is warranted.

And that group is also an incredibly small outlier, and wouldn't be considered in their calculations.

That wasn't Shruiken, that was, like, a shadow dragon he summoned with his shadow power or something. Created for the movie so they could have a more exciting climax than a one on one sword duel ended by an elf magically shattering a ruby as large as a house directly over said duel before diving into it on the back of a pissed off dragon, providing the distraction needed for the hopelessly outmatched hero to stab the unholy abomination through the heart. That might sound awesome to you, because it is. Shruikan was the post credits reveal.

Reprinting some things, neglecting to reprint others, power creeping the stuff they did reprint out of the game, banning some stuff that was too powerful while printing other stuff that's just as good for the same reasons. You know, standard card game stuff.

An AI (in its current form) isn't a person drawing inspiration from the world around it, it's a program made by people with inputs chosen by those people. If those people didn't ask permission to use other people's licensed work for their product, then they are plagiarising that work, and they should be subject to the same penalties that, for example, a game company using stolen art in their game should face. An AI doesn't become inspired, it copies existing things to predict what it thinks its user wants to see. If we produce a real thinking AI at some point in the future, one with self determination and whatnot, the story will be different, but for now it isn't.

I've got one and I also love it, but it is very expensive. That said, so are a lot of backpacks recommended here.
