Nobody really cares about that. He never really got video games but he was old and nobody expected him to. Also, only pretentious fools spend anytime arguing about what is or isn't art. I think we will have to look for great video game crit

I don't know why people would experiment with pills like that. I used to pull all nighters when I worked for a big law firm. Sometimes I would pull worse -- I would spend forty hours in a row in the office. I did not take any pills. Let me

Yes, those couple of hours right after it snows can be quite beautiful in a big city. If you want to cure yourself of your nostalgia you can just imagine the couple of hours after that. When the snow starts melting and everything turns into

That is a good point and that is a big weakness of bitcoin. Fact of the matter is this crazy appreciation is not very good for the currency. It encourages hoarding and discourages commerce. For all the stories about appreciation I do not he

So what is your point, that since you did not think of it, we do not have to worry about it? I am sure the potential mass murderers will think of it.

This is pretty fucked up. The author conveniently ignores the fact that sniper mass killings have already happened (e.g. the Washington sniper). The reason we do not get more sniper mass killings is that it takes a lot of skill to hit a tar

This is a great story! By the way, I do not think the author of the article (Epstein) got away with anything. I am pretty sure Nabokov knew very well that he had not read the book. It is not a coincidence that Nabokov gave him a job reviewi

Nope, you are completely misinterpreting the article. Perhaps, if you studied in a Finish school, you would have a better understanding of what the author was trying to say.

Easy. Just run Linux in a virtual machine and then you can follow the directions of the present article to run Netflix in Linux.

I agree that in this case a change was called for. I usually do not complain about misspellings, but sometimes a misspelling completely changes the meaning. Personally, I have no problem with mods changing titles as long as they do it in or

Lets call a spade a spade -- they cannot make decisions about their currency because they are using the euro and thus do not really have control over their currency.

CYPRUS. That is the name of the country. What you typed is a completely different thing. I thought the semiconductor company was getting bailed out.

EA should just hire Toady one from dwarf fortress to do the Sim simulation. Dwarf fortress has very complex and very accurate path-finding as well as excellent creature simulation. That model can be simplified and used in Sim City. Of cours

This repeated notion of a truly converged OS is really annoying and it is very disappointing to see Ubuntu continue to pursue it despite the loud complaints of most of their users. Lets point out the obvious: the user interaction of a small

The main cause is pretty simple. The police in San Francisco just do not bother them in certain neighborhoods. In most other cities police routinely pick up the homeless and dump them some place far. So the absence of homeless is usually no

I am not sure exactly what your game is but it seems that you are simply not challenging yourself. The DF economy is such that if you get your fortress running well towards the end of the game there is a pretty large surplus. This is in ord

That would be much more useful if we had some names to go with that story.

Journalists are not the owners. They do not have an expectation of privacy when reviewing a car. They can use their own cars when cheating on their spouses.

Top Gear did not use the truth as a defense. On the contrary the judge ruled that the truth did not matter. In other words the judge ruled that Tesla would not be entitled to win even if Top Gear had lied. The case never got to the fact fin

by hristov 14y ago
That court case does not mean as much as you think it does. Just because Top Gear won, does not mean that they were truthful. The judge merely said that even if Top Gear lied their lie would not be legally actionable.

There is no legitimacy to that claim. They did not have to take the deal. The government did not owe them anything. Maybe there was something about the bailout being really a Goldman bailout, and if someone can prove actual corruption there

Ok i smell spam upvoting. There is no way 50 people thought this navel gazing article deserved an upvote. He does not even say anything. Pg, time to tweak the algorithms again.

If this was an antitrust investigation it might make sense. But nothing here indicates this is an antitrust investigation. First, the Attorney General of California is supposed to handle antitrust, not the Dept of Corporations. Second, to t

There are many ways many people can get screwed in business deals but usually it is up to the injured party to show injury and file a claim of some sort. It is very unusual in the US justice system to have a state agency do an independent i

One thing thorium proponents tend to omit is that there was a German thorium reactor which was considered to be in regular service (i.e., non-experimental). It suffered an incident and was shutdown several years thereafter as the costs of d

Not really Christian, but puritan. Alchohol is actually a big part of Christianity. It was only the Puritans that were against it. That is probably why the Puritans were kicked off to America. But I suppose alchohol is just treated differen

King of the Hill is a terrible show. It looks like a 12 year apology for making office space. Where-ever office space attacks and mocks the traditional power structure, king of the hill carefully reinforces it. King of the Hill is not a lit

I think the guy himself was not too eager to continue the project. Looking at his statement, he seems a little too willing to give up. Perhaps he thought the response was too lukewarm to continue. Most likely he needs much more than $50 000
