So are the externalized costs of using fossil fuels, where we just burn it and are like, “Eh, I’m sure my kids will figure it out” a part of this calculation?

I used to be a criminal defense attorney, and I can say that there was no charge I disliked more than resisting arrest. Set aside the fact that cops are professional perjurers who people would believe if they said that not only is the sun going to rise in the west tomorrow, but that it’s always risen in the west and…

That always seems weird to me. EVERY game for EVERY video game company always seems to fail to meet expectations. At some point, I think you have to reconsider how you’re making your sales forecasts.

Back when I used to teach, I was really surprised by this. Every student in my school was required to have a iPad, but most of them were less-advanced users than my nearly seventy year old parents. And they’re iPads, so it’s not like it was complex troubleshooting, editing config.sys files or anything like that. “Your…

And THAT is the problem with adjudication by Komitee.

“Seven to eight”? I’d be less concerned about whether he has Covid and more concerned about his mental state. How do you not know how many people you’re buying a vacation for? Are we sure his last name isn’t McCallister?

A number of years back, I had a friend who INSISTED I had to watch BSG. It may be the series I’ve disliked most that I’ve still watched every episode of. The first season or two were really good, then every season after that went the same way: Really interesting beginning that gets me into the season, really dull…

Yeah, that’s unfortunate, because it seems really cool. I guess it’s around $140 US for the base set, and that’s just a little too rich for me. $100? I’d certainly consider it. Anything less than that would have been more or less a certain sale. Miniatures are one thing about the Kickstarter gaming renaissance that I…

There are so many people in the comments of articles like this talking about how “this is why I only buy physical games!” Yeah, for sure, you’ll have something, but how similar will it be to the game you remember and want to revisit? For example, I can’t imagine anyone who plays No Man’s Sky and enjoys it now would…

I’ve always thought “It seemed like a good idea at the time,” but that one definitely works, too.

I tried Remote Play Together on a whim a couple months back, and I was really impressed with how well it worked. I first saw it in the context of some board game conversions that I had in my library, and thought that would be lots of fun, but never got around to trying it. Well, a couple months ago, I decided to give…

My first thought was Jennicam, so yeah, I guess us old guys aren’t commenting yet.

I can only imagine that wrapped-up body got him some strange looks when he was setting up for the shoot.

This is great to know! Not too long back, I was interested in this game, but had too big a backlog, so I decided to wait until I saw a price I couldn’t pass up. Guess today’s that day.

I’ve recently been playing Shadows of Mystara (the D&D beat-em-up) with my friend over Steam’s Remote Play Together feature, and I was really surprised how well it worked! If that’s available for those games, you may want to give it a try. It may not be perfect, but it’s certainly an option.

I swear, there were entire episodes of Game of Thrones that might as well have just been an audio drama.

This is exactly what I was saying last week. Clearly, being a Trump sycophant is rough on the guy, because he looks beat compared to how he looked back when he ran for president. And his beard... his beard looks less like he’s chosen that as a look and more like he’s had sharps confiscated.

Meanwhile, Luigi will sit. And watch...

I got my Switch back in summer of 2019. I was a little uncertain about the purchase when I made it, but I can safely say now that I’ve been incredibly pleased with the system. I use it pretty much daily for Ring Fit Adventure, and I use it to play other games regularly.

From what I understand (and I’ve never touched it, so I could be wrong), Robinhood has some ways for users to borrow money to invest. I’ve heard those programs are very popular in the WallStreetBets “I made $(x) in 24 hours!” community, who seem to be driving this. If that’s so, Robinhood is probably going to take a…
