I'm super pumped for this! They always do awesome runs with awesome commentary, and all for a great cause.

They mention battlefield and its problems a lot, but never once mention Sim City... it seems like they may have missed an important learning opportunity. Sim City was way more of a disaster than Battlefield, but maybe they're just hoping we've forgotten (it's been more than a year after all) and don't want to remind

Quickly followed by

Windows only, or are they working on a Mac version?

Well, if he can spend 13 years on it, I suppose I can spend some minutes making a decent wineskin for it.

Oh really? I don't really know anything about what those fairytales were like in America pre-disney adaptation. Were the Disney versions just direct adaptations of the popular versions at the time?

Ahhhhh, that makes me so mad. It's like the person doing the revisions had no understanding of what that line was communicating. "Nice is different than good" is something I feel like should be thrown in the face of all those "why don't girls want to date a nice guy like me" dudes, but "nice is better than good" would

Now playing

It's a pretty common complaint about Sondheim that his melodies are too difficult/not catchy enough. His work is perhaps a bit of an acquired taste, but once you've acquired it, going back to Schwartz or Webber just isn't the same (you end up laughing at their lyrics). Sondheims strength is definitely his lyric

Nope, the rape in this musical is the wolf raping little red riding hood, but many argue that that's what the original fairytale is about anyway (and it's just sung about as being rape in the musical, with the wolf being super sexual, it still plays out as the usual being eaten story). I don't think rape should be a

Well, Disney already gave the Grimm fairytales this sort of treatment, and now the disney versions are beloved classics and most Americans don't know the originals. Making child-friendly versions of dark stories is a huge part of what they've built their empire on. Personally I prefer the original fairytales, and I

Yes, it is violators' fault that they wanted to run a huge Minecraft server and pass some of the cost off to users when that was explicitly forbidden by the EULA, who else's fault is it supposed to be?

Your husband was drafted? Because if he volunteered, he did ask to go to war on behalf of our government should it become involved in a war. You don't join the army on the assumption that you will not be asked to go to war, or if you do, that's a very unwise thing to do. If you sign up for the army, you are asking to

Yes she could be charged with theft, and if the soldier wants to legally force the family to return the dog, he probably will have to bring charges against the (hopefully ex) girlfriend. Stolen property that is sold must be returned to the original owner by the purchaser (and if the purchaser was aware the product was

Selling stollen goods is illegal regardless of whether it's stolen from a soldier or a heroin addict; the occupation of the victim has no legal bearing (and I would argue little moral bearing either). If the family refuses to return the dog I don't think they will have any legal legs to stand on. The owner did not

If they provide the content premade and want to be paid for it, under the new EULA they will be able to charge for access to the server, so I don't quite see the problem (better to have a mod you can purchase once and play fully than a pay2win model of the same mod). Under the old EULA that all these complainers

And in this case, the EULA is actually being made more lax, not stricter, and these servers have been breaking the rules of the current EULA all along. It was never legitimate after Mojang drafted a proper EULA.

The problem isn't money-grubbing it's the massive changes to plenty of legitimately run server businesses that employ a microtransaction model.

The rules themselves haven't been lax and aren't becoming stricter, it's how strictly they are enforcing the rules that have already existed for quite a while that is being changed.

If anything Mojang is being extremely charitable. They haven't cracked down on these EULA violations in the past, though they could have at any point if they had wanted to, and now that they plan to more strictly enforce the rules they made a public statement about it giving a month and a half notice before they plan

Sounds more like a slow fade than a bursting bubble.
