My dad (silent generation): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and be able to own a house and support a stay-at-home wife and kids. I dunno how you kids make it.

Me (gen X): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and afford rent and food. I dunno how you kids make it.

I'm not sure when the guy in the comic was born. Medieval times maybe? Because economic conditions for working class folks have been getting steadily worse for the entire lifespan of everyone alive today, at least in the US.

Playing music. Started on a shitty hand-me-down acoustic guitar. Got a better guitar. Got an electric. Got a better amp. Got a couple of pedals. Got a better amp. Got like 6 more amps, some cabs, 5 more guitars, a huge pedalboard, a cello, a keyboard, an audio interface, attenuators, mics, etc etc.

You gotta understand... I need all this stuff. There are subtle differences that you've never noticed before but will probably hear once I do an a/b comparison for you, and I absolutely must get an AC15 next to round out the collection instead of buckling down and recording something.

Metal AF

Mind you, I'm not putting my fingers near that thing, but I like it from over here.

I wouldn't call seven million murdered corpses "rubbish," but I guess we already knew how much Stalin valued his people.

Looks good for at least another couple of hundred yards.

I want the actual reviews so I have at least some chance of figuring out if the reviewer is a bot, a shill, a customer, or is reviewing the UPS guy instead of the product.

They're both violations of the conditions of release. Two separate violations, unrelated except for being prohibited behavior.

It's totally different from wow. Wow is a real-time mmo. BG3 is a turn-based fantasy RPG (think Divinity:Original Sin or Wasteland 3).

He organized an event without getting a permit.

The permitting process ensures that there's adequate security, traffic control, etc.

He didn't do any of that legally required stuff, and the result was an angry mob. We've been through this. This is why you need a permit for large public gatherings, and why he's legally liable for what happened.
