Reports to the police and anonymous accusations on the internet aren't the same thing. A false report to the police carries huge consequences, both legal and personal. Virtually no woman would be willing to risk them simply out of spite or shame or whatever. However, there are NO consequences for a false anonymous…

Based on my extremely limited understandings of science, economics, warfare, etc. I imagine the bulk of space combat (if we survive long enough to see such a thing become common) will largely be conducted by smallish drones and robots. Machines that could calculate and react fast enough to actually engage and attack…

I tried a simple Occulus Rift demo at Siggraph in Vancouver this year. You put the Occulus and a pair of gloves on, and you fly around a simple little virtual city by holding your hands out in front of you like Superman. Moving your hands apart slows you down, closer together speeds you up. It wasn't really all that…

You guys should kickstart that.

The genet pretends to listen to their boring stories.

What is this, some kind of freaky Assassin's Creed/Dark Souls hybrid??

Bad. Ass.

I'd put my money on: because boners.

Now that's cool. I had mixed feelings about PT. Interesting concepts, but kinda cliche content. Weeping female ghost, creepy baby laughs, banging doors, jump scares. We've seen that stuff a million times. This restores some of my excitement for Silent Hills, though. Creepy, weird, messed up, surreal.

This is the trailer for the weirdest road trip movie ever.

I'd say the answer is to realize that this is simply what early access looks like, and leave it at that.

Because a soup kitchen is analagous to a game development business?

This is why I pirate all the games I play. Sure, the devs don't get any money from me, but they should be happy for the exposure. Maybe I'll like their game enough that I'll choose to actually pay for the next one. Maybe I'll recommend it to all my friends. Surely that is more than fair compensation for their work.

It's about a team of high school students...

Some kind of book of practical medicine. Something a non-doctor could use to treat as many different health issues as possible. Considering how backward medical science was for so long, you could pretty quickly establish yourself as some kind of medical genius. Or else a witch/sorcerer/magic-using servant of the…

The concern always seems to be that robots and computers can't grasp the nuances of human ethics...but are humans really that great at ethics in the first place? Even if we can articulate noble ethical systems, the actual practice of our beliefs is more often riddled with bias, shortsighted selfishness, inconsistency…

The Silent Hill franchise has mostly been a mix of bad, mediocre and a little good over the last few titles. So the way I see it, there's not really that much on the line. If it isn't that great, well it pretty much just carries on as Silent Hill has been going for some time. If it turns out to be awesome, then that…

Not knocking the art here, I have nothing against it. But whenever I see weird fantasy armor designs I always find it funny to imagine the characters trying to put it on/take it off. Getting all those bones in just the right place must be a pain in the ass for antler dude, there.

Why are the photos so bad? Are they bad on purpose? Is this like, his thing that he does?

I've always wanted to assemble my own PC. Seems like it would be a fun and interesting project. But I'm terrified of costing myself hundreds of dollars by fucking something up, and I order my machines from a company that will assemble your custom-chosen parts AND test the system to make sure everything's stable for a…
