That's called manslaughter... You don't get to walk when you rob a place and "accidentally" shoot someone. A sassy judge should ask "Did you accidentally rob the place too?"

Not arguing with you. But I think a digital bioweapon is a better analogy than a bomb. Since it spreads without control after release, like a... well... virus. If a country released a bioweapon somewhere and it affected "un-intended ta

Might be the types of people I met in Texas, but I generally feel people are receptive to counter view points if you dont look down on them. I never had issues with debating people in Texas.

Seriously, Texans in the cities may be redneck compared to the rest of the country, but holy fucking shit are they friendly as hell. If you suck in social situations, you will find plenty of extroverts that will gladly make you feel include

I did say "if I agreed/believed it". But if it were true, that's where I believe the discourse would end up. But to be fair, PR stunt dynamics are better understood these past two decades compared to the 80s. The last de

I wonder... some people claim the "negative press" of the glass shattering was by design because it creates a larger narrative, that if they handle properly, keeps the truck in the public's ears and eyes everyday (which is ha

1. Read a lot. 2. Write a lot. 3. Read more and pay attention to how it differs from your writing. Figure out what you need to improve. 4. Write a lot more. Repeat. In all seriousness, that's the base habit of all journalist, non-ficti

Was this some halfass pr stunt to artificially boost their engagement numbers for the quarter? Something for their shareholders?

When it comes to searches for technical reasons, dev related, sci, even gov searches, duckduckgo blows google out of the water. Junk random searches, trivial things, yea... its weak. My experience I should say.

Fellow Floridian, same here. Thing is, I've been curious about this. You mentioned, "I won't pay for a subscription to a worthless newspaper". So, I know this is the sentiment most people have. But, isn't that the p

I have never been asked to be saved by jesus in all my years in Florida. Cali, Oregon, washington, and obviously in Virginia and Utah. But never Florida. What's the religion where they say Jesus came to America? Whoever they are, they&

Hey, personal experience and to be fair for them, Google does occasionally give me ads about a Haas CNC machine. I really want one. But I don't have the disposable $100k for one and I don't have the space... nor do I have 3 phase

I'm fascinated by people's reactions. The identity to needing video games absolutely intrigues me. So yea, at this point, it's my vice to poke and prod and better understand how people relate to video games. So... yea, I&#x27

Yea, but I'm not dependent on them. Everyone here is just, "I need my games wherever I am at all times!" Learn to diversify. Learn to not need technology. Hug a fucking tree.

Serious question, what about the general increase of bandwidth usage? In my mind things like Stadia will increase the amount of data traffic exponentially, even at a low market penetration rate. I think I saw one estimate that it's goi

I know people that bring cigarettes to every trip they've had in more than 10 years. Doesn't make it right either. Always having to rely on video games and the internet is a problem. You seriously can't mature through being a

I think I'm more shocked how incredibly addicted and dependent people are to the internet and gaming. The conversations here are just, "Oh my god, I can't be without high speed internet for more than thirty seconds! I might d

Yea, like eating a salad and a Big Mac are the same class of food as well. Feels so weird since it's so obvious. A salad and a Big Mac. They're both food, thus they are both equally nutritious. Go out and get some sun.

Don't live in San Fran then? Florida has prettier beaches and nicer people. I grew up in Florida, traveled the country in my 20s, and came back to Florida last year. Plenty of social gatherings and people who want to make friends here.

Okay, but that's a little different. Stadia, you have to buy the game retail. Ps now (I have a ps4), 10 bucks a month to play how many different games when the hell ever I want. It totally works out for me because I normally don't

Hey, when I first visited Vegas, landed at noon, drunk by 2, vomiting by 4, asleep by 5, woke up with a hangover at 10. First time I went from sober, to drunk to hungover in the same calendar day. Fat Tuesdays margaritas man... so good... b

Because xyz-as-a-service is anti-consumer. Unless you've been under a rock the past decade, there are many flaws with the model when it comes to consumers. It's great for business. Terrible for the user. As-a-service puts the cons

Hold up, there's some really bad perspective on this. While I would say there's no immediate cure for burnout, it is absolutely curable. When I first learned to program, I dived into freelancing. I lucked out and in about 3 weeks,

Anything and everything has a "dark side". That's why these, "Gasp! Oh my goodness, I can't believe there are such vile people in this world" comments piss me off. It's a clear sign of willful ignorance an

Agreed. It's also human nature to game systems for their own advantage. The same evolutionary triggers that had us develop tools to reap rewards from the physical environment... well, we develop mental/abstract tools to reap rewar
