That is probably a minority

I know a person who does do that, but I have very little faith in people as a whole. I would have to see some kind of business statistic to believe that statement.

For me, it's that I want to consume culture but I'm too poor to do so legitimately. I live with and care for my parents but I pay for my own entertainments outside of ones that they use too, like internet and Sky TV. I get £50/month courtesy from those same parents while I'm still in education, but that's mostly because a benefit I should be getting from the government Carer's Allowance won't be given to me because I'm still in full-time education bc the system's fucked all the way up.
Let me tell you, £50 a month does not go very far at all. Cinema tickets here are at least £10 each on the cheapest night even with a student discount. CDs can be anywhere from £3 to £12 depending on the genre and popularity of the artist. The cheapest sub to Netflix is £5.99 a month. The cheapest I could find a gym was £10 a month and that was a mediocre gym at that.
Netflix and a gym is automatically £16, that's more than a quarter of my money gone. Add in saving £10 a month, that's over half gone. and £14 a month for social stuff is not very much at all. That's barely a meal out at lunch unless we go to McDonalds every damn time. My friends are fine with that. I'm not tbh.

I used to pay for Netflix. I still would if I could find a part-time job. But I know a streaming site that has all of the Netflix exclusive shows and more on there, so I use that instead.
I'll buy content from artists (music, drama, art) that I really truly love. Marina is one such artist. I don't illegally access her music, but I did download some songs from Electra Heart before I bought the album - because I couldn't find the album anywhere. When I found it, I bought it. I buy Trudi Canavan's books in paperback because that's the cheapest way I can get them. I'd buy Mira Grant's Newsflesh trilogy if I could find it in any bookstore. I prefer hard copy for books. I can't find it, so I make use of a less than legit ebook copy that I have. Though I did just find it on Amazon. Never really thought to check. I am not a smart froot.

I can't speak for everyone, I know that. But a lot of the people I know who illegally access content do so because they cannot afford to but they want to support and consume all the same. They give support in other ways, mostly by talking about what they're watching/reading/listening to. People talking about a show online gives it so much more power, and can give it a way bigger audience. Amazon picked up Ripper Street because so many people were talking about it, especially after BBC opted to axe it.

how so? might be able to help.

some ran away, most likely, run around the area, and kill anything hostile. similar thing happened to me, one was just out of reach of the compas and i had to walk around to find him, and then it advanced, try that. or fast travel away, and back again. might restart the quest, and fix it.

strange, tried talking to ironside?

hmm, console or pc?

fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_4_console_commands

go here and search for quest, find the right id, and set it to 1. might reset it, if not set it to 2, and you should skip the raider attack, and continue with the next part of the quest, a little cheating, but should get you moving on, so you can get the awesome reward at the end

you are welcome, best bet i have at the moment on how to fix it. 1am here

>>#21,
Thrive is a game being made slowly right now, basically a extremely realistic sim like Spore

Thanks! I'll totally try this out!

Looks cool so far. And I'm glad they updated over that hexagonal stuff.
And they plan to go all the way to space age civilization stuff afterwards?
I hope it plays more like an RTS where you command fleets/entire planets rather than your own little shitty ship..

to me the concept was so good that it couldn't have been completely ruined.

Besides the caveman part I loved Spore.

They're just milking it for attention

Yeah, it's going to be that way for at least a few more months.
Unfortunately..
Whenever there's a talking flower, there's going to be an Undertale reference.
Whenever there's a talking skeleton, there aren't going to be any more fuckbois or doots, it's going to be a fucking Undertale reference.

It's just this year's flavor of obsession for the internet...

>memes
>increase Charisma

You okay there, buddy?

If it were like real memes it would be -10 to every stat with a 100% chance to become addicted.

I think if memes were a chem they'd reduce your charisma b/c lets face it, if your meme game is strong, you don't have friends.

no no, a chem called BLACK TWEETS.

skyrimdovah pls

And a Dank Memes varient, with stronger/extra effects, but highly addictive.

spooky

I know none of these words

spooky

Oh..
It's a boss fight from World of Warcraft.

I think it's arguable. You can find plenty of jewish people from that part of the world approving of the mass bombings of innocent 'Islamic infidels' in the supposed defense of their holy land. The origin of the conflict is due to the jews believing they're the rightful inheritors of the kingdom.

go home /pol/ you're drunk

You are so far up your ass

ayyy you actually believe this?

You seem to have forgotten about the Lord's Resistance Army.

Ever heard of Buddhism in Myanmar?
They have been killing and deporting Christians and Muslims until recently.

Eh, you could make arguments that Hinduism and Buddhism at least contribute to the "oppressing" part with untouchables, but how much of that is religion and how much of that is culture is anyone's guess.

A nation run by greedy, cruel people could use literally any religion to justify and codify their theocratic powerbase. Culture and history are the enemy of progress in Middle Eastern countries, not a religion adhered to by hundreds of millions of people who don't even live in that region.

Eh, not technically true. Take a look at how Israel is treating their Muslim neighbors.

Israel deals with Paris style attacks on a daily basis.

What are you referring too?

Do you just not look at the news or...? They launch missiles indiscriminately. They're worse than US drone strikes. Paris style attacks daily? You're deluding yourself. Israel gives out ten times the punishment they take.

Why don't you look up the actual statistics of the Israeli-Palestien conflict. Israel, including both military and civilian, has twenty dead and one hundred and ninty two injured in the year 2015 thus far. Palestine has suffered 96 dead and over three thousand wounded. And you want to say Palestine is pulling more shit? How about you google this shit and look at the hard numbers instead of sensationalist media.

Numbers!? Fuck the numbers! Let me use my feelings instead!

Yeah, I'm sure Falah Hamdi Zamel Abumaria was totally hiding Hamas soldiers in his house when he was murdered by Israeli forces trying to render medical aid to his son who was shot by stray fire. They raided the house after a fucking pot fell out of their window. I'm sure that was the Hamas, though.

I'm sure Muhammad Husam Barakat was hiding Hamas soldiers on his bus when two israeli civilians assaulted him with knives on his route.

Moussa Othman must have been transporting Hamas belligerents when Israeli settlers began pelting his taxi with rocks.

I'm sure all those homes that Israel keeps demolishing with people still inside were totally warned months in advance, despite no evidence that their building permits aren't invalid and no actual warnings on record.

Loay Bakri must be a Hamas sympathizer. Praise God for the six youths that assaulted him with steel rebar and shattered his hand.

There are hundreds of other stories just like these if you'd bother to actually look.

Yeah, the Palestines pull their fair share of shit. But do not pretend for a second that the level of force and the innocent casualties are remotely justified due to the small handful of rockets hitting empty fields. In what goddamn world would it be ok for a country to level entire apartment blocks with missiles because Hamas 'might' be hiding there? Destroying hundreds of homes and shelters while israel citizens sit on hilltops and fucking cheer. They've wiped out UN relief shelters.

Look, I very much understand where you're coming from. Two wrongs don't make a right.

But at the same time, Israel's gotta co-exist with a group of people that routinely and regularly carry out terrorist attacks on its citizens.

Look, after the Paris attacks, that same week France was launching air raids against ISIS. When the twin towers fell, we started an entire war, and said it was justified. Israel hasn't done that, they've responded only to specific threats. Did they do so with more force then necessary? I'm certain they did, at least at times. Were some of those threats imaginary, or mistaken? Probably. But I have a hard time imagining, were anyone else put in their position, that they would do any better. In fact, I'd argue that things would probably be much worse, just looking at the comments Europeans make about mostly peaceful legal Muslim immigrants and refugees.

That doesn't mean we shouldn't advocate for Israel doing an even better job. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try to stop outbursts of racial violence against Palestinians from Israelis. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try to get the Israeli government to hold its citizens accountable when crimes do happen. But making Israel out as some sort of monster is just wrong.

One final thing: you mentioned rockets hitting fields. If someone fired a gun at you, but missed, would you consider it justified to attack him?

If someone fired a gun at me and missed, I wouldn't reply by firing a missile at the occupied gas station I guessed he might be in. The two aren't comparable. It's called the escalation of force, and Israel really likes to escalate. That answer minor riots with live ammunition instead of dispersal tactics.

This all flies away from the original point. Islam is not the only religiously run nation that uses is religion as justification for crap. Israel exists because of Judaism and the belief that Jerusalem is the promised land. This entire situation wouldn't exist if it weren't for that.

Well, that analogy kinda breaks down when the other guy also fired a missile.

As for the original point, so, what, it's Judaism's fault for existing before Islam did? Couldn't we just as equally say it's Islam's fault for claiming the same Holy Lands as Judaism?

Palestine and the Islamic community didn't get the UN to make a ridiculously one sided partition of the country after WWII. The Jewish people hadn't been in that land for nearly two thousand years. I'd be pretty pissed if my homeland was suddenly ripped in half by people who claimed ancestry there hundreds of years ago. It could have just as easily been shared. Would there still be tensions? Of course, but nothing on the level of what it is today.

But they don't do it in the name of their god.
It's more politics to them than religion.

I think it's arguable. You can find plenty of jewish people from that part of the world approving of the mass bombings of innocent 'Islamic infidels' in the supposed defense of their holy land. The origin of the conflict is due to the jews believing they're the rightful inheritors of the kingdom.

The Silver Shroud outfit is great on Curie.

Not the hat/outfit combo, just the Silver Shroud outfit.

But, I got the Minutemen General's uniform and gave her it, it looks good on her with the hat, too.

wait wait wait, this is curie the HANDYROBOT RIGHT? i thought they cant use anything except for wahatever they have installed?

Well, after you give Curie her synth body, you can.

You can give them apparel and equip it on them.
