A lot of them seem to be unemployed. Online is where they spend much of their time (and then they bitch about how they can't meet women — going out in public and actually talking to a woman might help with that), so they're free to dedicate large amounts of time to trolling and being misogynistic assholes without…

Yeah, whoever thought unlimited free burners to anyone on the internet was a good idea was either extremely naive or wilfully ignorant. I know their goal was to give people an option to comment without it being tied to them, but that's what fake e-mails, fake facebooks, and fake twitters are for. And I get the feeling…

A lot of MRA's seem to have set Google Alerts for whenever 'MRA' is used in an article online so they can jump in and 'correct' people ASAP (and call their buddies to action on MRA forums — Jez is a particularly juicy site for them to come to). Between them and the trolls who have made Kinja their home ever since it…

Boomerang > Sparky Sparky Boom Man. When a boomerang can beat someone no one in Team Avatar can touch (including Toph of all people), you know it's a legit weapon.

Yup. They use their capital to buy smaller studios that have good IP's and good games but instead of just sitting back and letting money roll in, they start micromanaging and forcing the studio to do things that will drive away not only consumers but invested fans. Then EA is surprised when the next game or two…

But they you can't blame women for being stupid and deserving to have pictures of themselves circulated all over the internet!

Great, so women who fall between small and medium or medium and large will now have to either go with something too tight or too loose? Way to prove that women's clothing sizes aren't completely asinine and arbitrary. Also, good job now making the sizes very fat-shamey and boob-shamey— instead of grabbing a size 14 or…

That's my fear, too. Nvidia has already shown that they will charge as much as they can get away with and only AMD tends to be able to reign them in on that. It may start off as just exclusive special effects or other cosmetic features, but once that ball starts rolling what will stop them from going to exclusive…

Exactly. Striving to make your product the best so it stands by itself and is the go-to product for a good chunk of consumers is great — it fosters both a fair marketplace to consumers and forces companies to innovate and price things competitively. Spending time and money to cut the legs out from under your…

Yeah, when one company asks (or "asks") for special features that will only appear if the consumer owns a specific brand of one part of a whole, that's a sleazy move and ends up hurting gamers regardless of what card they use. AMD users are locked out of content because they went with a different brand for a part that…

I'm with you on needing to see actual gameplay. I've played tons of TF2 and it can certainly be bloody but Valve did a good job at keeping things light ("Here's: your kidney!" on a killcam shot, for example) so it never seems excessive. TF2 itself is a fairly light game, lore- and graphics-wise, so it can get away…

It's now at $930k nearly $933k.

Sadly, it seems that the US tends not to act on any tragedies that involve guns. Because of the Montreal Massacre in Canada in '89, gun control laws immediately became something everyone was concerned with and by '95 the backbone of our current gun laws were in place. Not only that but police and the RCMP completely…

Same here. I've played DOTA2 (even some DOTA when elitists didn't kick anyone who wanted to try it on sight) and after playing LoL I can safely say that LoL is more my type of game. DOTA2 is just too frustrating (last hit denial, poor shop design, that bloody courier that people are so touchy about) and involves so…

While that's true to a degree, pretty much everything but skins can be unlocked just by playing the game. It can take a while but at the same time you end up being forced to learn about your handful of champions because they're all you have — instead of being subpar with dozens of champions, you end up being good or…

BSG absolutely nailed having a diverse gender cast (I'd say they did reasonably well on PoC as well). Not only is the division split fairly evenly, the female characters are never shown to be incompetent or inferior to male characters. I loved it then and I still love it now, and it shows that it's really not that…

Ah yes, the market should cater completely to one group while a highly profitable (as stated in the article) yet mostly untapped market just sits on their wallets because the company doesn't want their money. There's no logical fallacy in that type of thinking at all.

Yup, leaving an abusive relationship is the most dangerous time for a woman. The man doesn't want to lose 'possession' or power and thus it's better to kill her than let her go. He may go to jail (or not), but at least he claims ultimate ownership and was never less powerful than a woman.

I've noticed that myself. If someone explicitly targets gays, blacks, Jews, etc. then by and large it's recognized as a hate-crime and the person who committed the crime is a hateful bigot.

I think probably the Macintosh, though it may have been the Macintosh Plus. They were used in my elementary schools in the early 90's, though come to think of it I'm not quite sure the reason for them as I only recall them ever being used for their very basic graphics program. (instead of art class we'd be herded into…
