Back in the day, when American cars meant power, size, and steel it only took one hit.

So that's what they do in that hidden valley. And everyone is gobblin' it up.

Well, many people have email, Facebook, Twitter, and any number of other social media apps as well as many people's contact info on their phone. Combined with a lot f the owner's personal info and now the access to their two-step verification method, this gives a thief the perfect entry to virtually every aspect of…

Word salad.

And here we are living on $13k a year (minimum wage in FL) and we're pretty happy.

Why does there have to be winners and losers? As long as people are having fun playing the games they like what's the problem? Console gaming and PC gaming can peacefully coexist.

No problem. :) I've been getting lambasted by someone who is insulting me because I don't enjoy JRPGs. He seems to be deeply insulted and personally offended by it. I'm extremely confused by that sort of response. My apologies to you if my brusque tone seemed rude.

Based on your posting history in this article alone it's seems that your goal is to be antagonistic and rude as opposed to engaging in healthy debate or simply acknowledging that others have vastly different tastes that are equally as valid as your own.

I never said they didn't. In fact, I never said anything disparaging about them at all. I just don't like them.

My taste being narrower than yours does not make it wrong or terrible, merely different. I simply have never enjoyed them and I'm not likely to try all of them to see if one in a hundred is passably entertaining to me. Do not take it as an affront to yourself if I am somehow shortchanging myself by not loving a genre…

How is a different taste from yours considered terrible? I don't enjoy those styles of games. Some people enjoy sports games, but I do not. I don't consider their tastes (or yours) to be terrible. It is simply different from my own. Consoles don't suit my gaming preferences. My wife enjoys JRPGs, so I've delved into…

I've been building my own (or repairing others) for over 20 years now, and you hit the nail on the head.

I would never, ever play those. I'm talking about games like the Elder Scrolls series, Fallout, Xcom, Neverwinter Nights, etc. Also, real time strategy games, and loads of simulators. I've tried several JRPGs, and without exception I've loathed them all. Just something about the art and style that I find repellent (I…

I've been doing hobbyist electronics and building my own PCs for over 20 years and never bothered with an anti-static strap. I've never had a single piece of electronics suffer for it.

Really depends on what kind of games you like and what you intend to do.

One horizontal, one vertical and one oriented in the direction of the linearity of time.

It seems, mostly, to be a natural balancing act for us. That's not to say that we don't argue about things when we are presenting our sides. Like most people we have strong opinions and we argue sometimes. But we both recognize that we work much better as a team than either of us could alone. We try not to let…

My wife is often overly optimistic and hopeful (idealistic naivete!) whereas I am inclined to be pessimistic (pragmatically realistic!). What's really great though, is that we always seem to temper each other's tendency to carry either inclination too far in circumstances where it isn't warranted or could be…

Worse than letting acanthamoeba eat your eyeballs until blindness?

Too poor to take 'em out and rub spit on them at least?
