Could be indirectly inheriting the debt. They could’ve taken out a new/second mortgage to cover their gambling debts, for example. Sure, the kid could refuse the inheritance to avoid being stuck with that, but then they’re still out a house they otherwise would’ve had if not for their parents debts.

They do, in fact, make Lightning Mcqueen slides.

There isn’t any animal that is even remotely comparable in intelligence to what we see Pokemon capable of, so it’s not really fair to make that comparison.

Dolphins and Chimpanzees are widely considered the next most intelligent species after us, but they’re still far below us. You can teach a Chimp basic sign language, but you still can’t have a proper conversation with them, let alone come up with complex plans with them.

By comparison, Meowth is not only capable of all that, he’s better at it than J&J; iirc, most of their plans that almost succeeded were his ideas. Plus he’s extremely capable at subterfuge, considering he once successfully convinced Ash & Co. that he was done with Team Rocket and gained their trust, only for it to be yet another scheme. Not to mention his ability to operate highly complex machinery.

And mind you, there’s zero indication that Team Rocket’s Meowth is any more intelligent than any other Meowth, he’s just vastly more ambitious. They very clearly show that his more human like tendencies are a conscious choice, not something inherent to him. Other Meowths could learn English, they just choose not to(and at least one thinks TR Meowth is weird for doing so).

I don’t think you can answer this question for Pokemon in general, I think it would be species specific.

Meowth is clearly of human intelligence, for example. Hell, he’s smarter than Jessie & James.

Then you have the extreme end, where Alakazam has an IQ of 5000. We’re basically ants to them.

Not to mention pretty much every psychic pokemon in the anime can have proper conversations with humans using telepathy.

Those aren’t the hardcore climate skeptics. The real crazies have gaslighted themselves into believing the current climate conditions are how things have always been.

I once had a relative refuse to believe there was blizzard during a family reunion in October only a decade or so ago. They were AT said family reunion.

Yep. A third party candidate hasn’t gotten a single electoral college vote since George Wallace, and the only time a third party has done better than either a Democrat or a Republican was with Theodore Roosevelt and his Bull Moose party, which crushed Taft but got absolutely obliterated in turn by Wilson due to the spoiler effect.

The neat thing about black holes is the process would be both instantaneous and take literally eternity, depending on one’s perspective.

Are you dudes installing things to AppData, lmao?

Most of my things aren’t even installed on the same drive as AppData.

It’s going to prompt for admin rights every time a windows user runs it

I can personally confirm: No, it does not.

Okay then.

Explain that to a diabetic child when Trump gets rid of the insulin price cap that enables their parents to afford it.

Explain that to a trans person who, if the republicans gets their way, will be considered a sexual predator and imprisoned(at best…) for simply existing in public.

Explain that to a woman forced to carry her rapists baby to term when, if Trump gets his way, abortion is federally criminalized. Scratch that, explain that to a child forced to die from their ectopic pregnancy.

Explain that to Ukraine when we stop supporting them against Russia… hell, explain that to Ukraine when we end up supporting Russia against Ukraine.

Explain that to EVERYONE when Trump’s “I’ll be a dictator, but only on day 1” comment becomes a reality and doesn’t stop after day 1.

I could go on.

By all means, continue to delude yourself into believing you are making the just and moral decision. It won’t stop anyone else from seeing that your morals are entirely performative.

Third party candidates and parties exist. They don’t suddenly cease to exist simply because the 2 right-wing parties we’ve had forced upon us have gone out of their way to prevent them from participating.

Ah yes, the great and amazing third parties of the US. In this corner we’ve got the Libertarians, aka the “republicans that like weed and dislike age of consent laws” party, and in the other corner we have the Green Party, aka the “pops up every election year to complain how both sides are bad, before promptly returning to the ether upon the elections conclusion” party.

Such good options, I truly don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want to vote for one of those two. /s

That’s… literally the exact opposite of what they said.

I’m Canadian and have absolutely no dog in this fight.

Then kindly shut the fuck up. I’m an American, I’ve ACTUALLY had to live in this country with Trump and Biden as president, and it’s no contest for me. I’d take Biden at his worst over Trump any day. That doesn’t mean Biden is good, it means Trump is just that fucking bad.

Dude left the public life altogether a decade ago. Man clearly values his privacy, as he should.

What the fuck, my guy. Even if you don’t know what the word “defile” means, there’s nothing one could intend to do to their murder victims corpse where the response “sounds like fun” should ever be uttered.

Who would want to buy them? The only value a studio has without it’s IP is the devs, and you don’t need to buy the studio to acquire them.

Pretty sure you can get an NACS adapter now, but otherwise non Tesla vehicles pre-equiped with a NACS port are due to arrive next year.

Hacksmith on youtube uses playstation controllers for remote operation of their giant mechs.

Fucking same. Gives me the same vibe as OJ with pulp, ugh
