If we don't own games then the language needs to change.
No "buy now", no "Pre-order", nothing.
These guys have lived in a happy gray area where they get to sell services and products using permanent language while holding the right to take it away when they want.
Fuck that.
Capcom did a study and quick search shows this:
In the Capcom Super Election survey (conducted February–April 2024), the gender makeup of the 254,148 respondents was:
Male: 82% (approx. 208,650 voters)
Female: 14%
Other: 4%
This data highlights a significantly male-dominated audience for Capcom's core console and PC titles among those who participated in this specific poll.
Sure it’s specific to Capcom but i’d say the breakdown is probably pretty close to consensus across consoles and PC.
There’s a lot of unknowns so until autopsy’s are done we won’t know. One report said cns o2 tox, which is possible if they had a rich mix especially that deep.
I’d look at the gas they used either way, it’s possible for carbon monoxide contamination if they all had gotten their gas from a tainted source. Then look at the equipment. It would have to be a process of elimination to know for sure. My opinion is just be speculation like anyone else but that’s where they’ll start with the investigation.
I my dive was surface supplied, theirs was self contained. We also have dive chambers on station when doing salvage, they didn’t I’m guessing. Over all military has different rules so it’s not exactly a perfect comparison.
There are also other unknowns such as what mix were they diving, experience level, actual dive plan, and underwater conditions.
This week in BJJ we practiced wrestling takedowns. I'm old and feel every bit of it. However, I met a few new people. I chatted with one after class, and it was pleasant. These interactions build community. My body is achy but my mind is grateful.
Open mat in bjj is my favorite day. Yes I get to mess around and try new things. However, community is the best part. Just rolling, chatting, and growing in a laid back environment is awesome. You’ll find people to match energy whatever you’re trying to achieve. I’m glad I go.
