Exactly, this is just a ploy to conjure up emotions.

Not saying you knew about it, but the predecessor, Elite 2 (1993), also had procedural galaxies. The Elite series goes back to the 80s.

Also is the act of canabalism in and of itself a crime? If I eat my own leg, who's the victim?

Chicago? The city with the famously horrendous 75 year parking meter deal?

Just going to a weekend trip to the mountains can give you a few nanoseconds difference: http://www.leapsecond.com/great2005/tour/

I go to the library to borrow movies, still fun.

Disagree, free loading customers still help their customer base. They are still seen as potential customers and normalize having epic store client, legitimizing their own walled garden. It's similar to any free-to-play game. All the customers that pay $0 technically cost the company money, but it's worth having that dead weight to build a player base to get the whales in. Just by installing and having an epic account will inevitably draw other people in that will spend money and lure in investors and developers. They're not dumb.

Really don't think of it from an individual point of view, but as a whole.

Not really, you cost Epic money but give them more users. Which is what they want. Only get free games from them if you want to support Epic.

There are studies that have shown staying indoors leads to bad eyesight. Combination of lack of UV and focusing on close up things. So there is some truth to sitting close to the TV is bad, even if it was only by accident. https://www.clinicaltrialsarena.com/analyst-comment/time-indoors-shortsightedness/?cf-view

But also, glasses exist. It's not a major issue.

As a fuckcar crowd, I moved from a rural location to the city. Because, you guessed it, fuck cars.

Yea I travel a bit, and I like talking about how they travel to gleen what kind of person they are. Like big cities? Do they take transit? What kind of activities? Lodging? Adventurous with food? Planned /spontaneous?

But at the same time, I typically move on to non-travel based chat pretty quickly. So I agree with the spirit of the comic.
