I came to the conclusion after reading books written by the people who worked with him, or who interviewed him or his staff. People who worked with Trump on a daily basis in the White House, hoping to keep the American experiment going. So

Very few games this would be the case. There are games that completely waste their space, but we can’t lump them all together. Some create vast detailed and beautiful worlds from their storage budget. Some of them, however, are large withou

That’s just the “texture” view. There’s also the parts and materials view that helpful segmented the various pieces of the car. I’m not sure why they chose to show off the “texture” view without even explaining what it is. Also, while it ma

Are those stories written by a character in Dwarf Fortress or a dramatization of the emergent behavior? The first story I saw could’ve happened in Rimworld or even Prison Architect, given literary license to dramatize.

I made that same point repeatedly, to mixed reception. Boeing is absolutely at fault but the airlines that had crashes were also guilty of cutting corners. Boeing is (rightly) held to a high standard. I try to fly on airlines that have simi

Hey look, you fact checked me and nobody got hurt and a misunderstanding was cleared up. Thanks for proving fact checking is a good thing. Indeed, genius Trump only suggested injecting bleach, not swallowing it.

Overwhelmed ICUs and hospitals beg to differ that reducing transmission rate is useless. Reducing virulence is absolutely worthwhile even if eventually everyone will get infected at some point.

The fact checkers didn’t admit they were wrong, they merely unflagged the article. If this is what the author think passes for logic no wonder they flagged him. Article was garbage clickbait for anti-maskers anyway.

This thread sure attracted the racists, no surprise. They’re furious social media doesn’t let them call people racial slurs online, or let them spread wild conspiracy theories.

Some in the mainland population are smart enough not to give their real opinions. It’s not safe unless you no longer live in China (and even then, it’s not safe, as the government can retaliate against the person’s family). I don’t doubt th

Many of them are dead comments, already. I don’t think there’s a flood, myself, but rather heterogeneous opinions largely based on whether China’s dictatorship is viewed as a positive alternative to American imperialism. Having lived in bot

On further thought, banning duplicates is just begging for trouble. It's a loophole you can drive a truck through. Just append a random throwaway property to every item and bam, "unique". So yeah, regulate it as gambling. Don

I don’t know about dark energy, but dark matter isn’t called such because it’s a “hole in our models”. The theory is it doesn’t react electromagnetically with other matter. So it’s quite literally, “dark” matter.
