1. is valid San Fran is a shithole and crazy pricy.
2. Also valid I guess. the article doesn't really say who these devs are or where they're from so it's hard to tell. 1
3. That doesn't make sense, that's never been required of anyone as far as i know
4. There is nothing to fear, people are allowed to visit legally this comes across as fear mongery.
You keep telling yourself that.

Bro how does that have any correlation? Are the developers coming with guns? Are they participating in protests? Are they going to Minnesota?

Those things have nothing to do with GDC at all. If you want to look at a situation happening in one part of the country and be scared then fine, but by that logic why do people travel to Mexico where cartels will rob you? Or the Middle East which can't stop battling each other? Or ever go to Chicago? People travel to countries that have dangerous sections to them all the time.

3 was all over the news in December. It is a new rule, for ESTA and for visas of H-1B, F, M and J types.
4. ... except you can be turned back at the airport without any prior warning, you visa might be cancelled while you are in the country without anyone telling you, ICE might just take you regardless of your status and let you rot several days in some prison until they have verified who you are

We have had many months of horrible experiences for legal visitors. The US is not regarded safe anymore for good reasons.

You must have been really sleeping under a rock haven't you? I wouldn't expect anything less from the person that made excuses or enabled the Jan. 6 rioters. You still made those posts and we have not forgotten. You can claim that you made an error but if you truly learned your lesson, you wouldn't be asking all these questions. If it was you or somebody you cared about that got shot by those Nazi thugs, then you would be crying.

Don't act oblivious. You've known exactly what's been going on here in the "good ole USA". We're in a fascist state right now. There is no going to be. It's already been happening.

Somebody's actually been paying attention. Thank you.

Alright, I didn't see any of that. I was sick most of December.

Those are work visa's aren't they. That's a turn back on work visas I thought, but I haven't heard them turning away vistors/tourism.

I'm not getting baited into these retarded internet disputes anymore. You are dumb if you think you have any idea what facism actually is.

Says a guy who can't notice fascism when it's right in his freaking face. And this is why you always get your butt kicked whenever you go to the current events thread. You either go off of asinine speculation, nothing at all, or pull your sources from the dictator himself. You'll only notice a problem when it's actually happening to you. Everybody else might as well not exist. I pray to god nothing ever does. The most you'll get for me is an I told you so, and that's it. If you can't fight for what's right or see what's wrong, then you're part of the problem. Sitting yourself constantly and numbing yourself does nothing but letting evil prevail. You are scared.

I have nothing further to say, because there's nothing worth saying to you. Especially the lows who can't bother to fight for their freedom or of others actual freedom. The fact that you first go into denial automatically proves my point. It's all you ever do or your first instinct when the truth is right in front of you.

The visa types might be work visa, but ESTA would be used for most people from visa waiver countries, so traditionally all the countries you have the deepest relations with.

The turning away ... they might not make national news for you because other stuff is bigger. But for a visitor who misses their event and has still to pay for two intercontinental flights, this is pretty bad. And that has happened a lot even before the new rules.

But what people fear most is obviously being caught and abused by ICE.

Look, at this point, anyone who thinks people have nothing to fear from ICE are at best ignorant to the point of unwillingness to accept the state of things, much less be convinced. Don't engage.

I dont go there any more because I have realized that not only is the internet just a big circlejerk of people with very strong opinions that can not and will not be changed by any facts or even general reasonable opinions in opposition. But also because you yourself have blatantly twisted (or willfully ignore) what i've actually said and what my thoughts are on any matter in order to fit what you want my opinion or statement to be. I've pointed this out to you dozens and dozens of times and you always hand wave it away like a child "I have nothing to say anymore" or whatever.

Between the two of us, I'm not the one who has celebrated the murder and assassination of anyone. I'm not the one chasing people out because they say things that I disagree with. I'm not the one calling one side evil, facist, nazi, whatever.

So I dunno, hold onto that hatred I guess.


FUCK I got baited. Goddamn it! I'm gonna take a fucking nap and then play some Highguard so i can hate some shit legitimately.

I never actually celebrated his death, but I sure as hell didn't cry for him. Truml and hose involved are nazis. You just choose not to see it.

You baited yourself. You are once again, your own worst enemy.

Truth. I'll take your advice.

Normally I'd call them out for misspelling the game's name in the thumbnail, but I'm starting to see why they might just not care....

Oh look, another "opportunity" for Roblox's CEO.


According to Roblox, its review found no evidence that Thomas was directed to communicate off the platform and no sharing of off-platform contact information such as usernames, phone numbers, or other communication methods.

Because I want to take a break from talking about Highguard, here are reviews for code vein 2:


Oooh boy, it looks like it's not as good as the first game

And it is painful to hear.

The first game was janky, but I felt there were a lot of things that were done better than the Fromsoftware games. And here comes a disappointing sequel
I posted a thread about it, the combat is sluggish, the open world sucks and is utterly pointless. It feels like they just wanted to copy Elden Ring but didn't know how. The motorcycle they give you to traverse the open world sucks, it doesn't move right, it has a terrible camera, honestly the game feels like it is a late Beta build and needed like 6 months more to polish and refine it.
