  • I’m not sure it’s that simple? I don’t know the details of this specific case, but are you suggesting that every actor that ever uses a prop gun has to do a test fire? Doesn’t the gun need to be reloaded after firing? How would the actor then know that it’s safe after the reload? I don’t think this is as easy as you make it seem. The process for such things needs to be tighter with strict controls and responsibilities. There are entire teams dedicated to the safe use of these props, and it’s not just the actor’s responsibility.



  • I get the need to have a distinction between fish flesh and other meats such as beef, pork, and chicken, but using the same logic as in this article, I’ve always thought of fish as part of the general “meat” category. It confuses me how Catholics do the “no meat, yes fish” thing. Maybe there’s some etymological explanation for why our current-day definition of meat doesn’t explicitly have this distinction (assuming it ever did), but if there is, that context seems to have been lost long ago. For some reason, many people now just reflexively believe that fish is not meat – even non-Catholics.

    How is $100 a cash grab? First of all, just removing ads is $20. The $100 Ultra option is for a bunch of additional features like cloud sync (which is an ongoing cost, mind you). Secondly, you don’t have to pay the lifetime cost; you can choose a subscription model instead. And how is it a “donation”? You’re making no sense.

    What exactly is the point you are trying to make? Whether the dev gets money via ads or subscriptions doesn’t change the “devs having to eat” aspect. How does it become a cash grab when ads become involved?
