    No one is stopping people from making their own game instead of working for scam artist employers. It's a lesson best learned early in life. Imagine if [insert_successful_indy_dev_here] thought it was a good idea to gun for a 30k/

    People in general are not making conscious choices to seek out foods that give them vitamin C. Why would they? They don't have to seek out vitamin C and they still won't get scurvy with even a 7/11 or burger king diet. Signif

    I agree with this to this extent: if you have no dependents, no plans to save money for retirement, you own your house or have a free living arrangement, you don't need to travel between cities, you don't maintain a car, then this

    alright, so 5 particles per cm^3 to 80 particles per cm^3, not grams (as density is normally measured). i'm not sure why the downvotes were necessary though when I made it clear I was trying to figure out what he's saying.
