  • Leave it to a Bezos-owned company to confuse customers and mislead them for profit.

  • Why would they lower it? That might hurt short-term profits, which might scare shareholders, which might mean the CEO gets a lower bonus, or even gets replaced. Nah, they'll just maximise profit from their remaining customers by adding in advertising, harvesting data, or even raising the price.

    Which is irrelevant to the main point that, no, paying $7 for something worth 50 cents is not good. I save a LOT of money by seeing scummy marketing tricks for the tricks they are.

  • They decide what the price is. If that price is so high that they can give away an extra product while still turning a profit (which they are, or they wouldn't offer the deal to begin with), then the discounted price is the only price even close to fair. The regular price is them overcharging you. This does not make the discount good.

    Now, imagine how much they're overcharging you if they give you a "buy 1, get 13 free" offer. That's what this is.

  • Just because the other options are secretly worse does NOT make charging 14 times the price for one week GOOD.

  • They don't even need speech disorders. They just aren't native speakers, and orcish has wildly different gramatical structures to humanic (or "common" as humans call it). If you spoke orcish, they'd seem more like a race of poets.

  • That's kind of the opposite, actually. This guy absolutely doesn't want to atone, but wants to make it clear that most other orcs have nothing to atone for. And the idea that a monster seeking recognition and a half-blood trying to atone for perceived sins of the father are "the same" because they're both orcs is part of the problem.

  • It is an ancient Orcish custom that one should take pride in the work itself and not seek glory from others, yes. This is one of the virtues of orcish society he points out to his survivors while making it clear that he DOES want the glory. Not all orcs are the same. Most are more virtuous than him.

  • Dragons have the ability to make you either terrified or charmed, and Paladins are immune to fear. Bards can learn Healing Word, but Paladins HAVE to touch you.

  • I have a character I'd like to play in a one-shot someday. He's a brutish, cruel and irredeemable orc bandit on a quest to enlighten the world about the virtues of orc culture, because he's sick of humans thinking being an orc is what makes him a monster. He is a monster, but not because he's an orc.

    "Orcish poetry is so beautiful that many front-line orc soldiers comfort themselves by thinking about their memorial poem. Personally, I think poetry is for sissies, but most orcs disagree with me!"

  • YSK that you can enjoy Colorado without driving. Bustang is a government agency that offers frequent intercity buses across the state

    Jump

  • After searching on a very unhelpful website, it looks like it goes from $5 to $43. And the trip could take several hours, depending on how far you're going. So it's not a commute thing, more like a tourism thing.

  • I never really thought about the price of AI. I was too distracted by literally everything else about AI being terrible to consider that they'd want money for it.

  • KyoAni is one of those studios that just likes to flex sometimes. And when they flex, their shirts explode, like in Castle in the Sky. Always fun to see.
