Fuck you for thinking that it’s acceptable to use “small” as an insult.

I wonder if these can be used as a cheaper alternative to Alien Bees $240 Vagabond Mini Lithium studio strobe (aka big camera flash) power pack.

That was obviously a Protoceratops and not an Oviraptor. I suspect many 10 year olds with a few dinosaur books would have noticed that.

He looks like someone with lot of experience consuming the products of agriculture. I can’t see why that wouldn’t make him qualified.

I’ll take “shitty moons” over shitty journalism any day!

A fear they’re going for a “protagonists save humanity” plot. The original didn’t need that. Had Deckard been unsuccessful in retiring the skin jobs, the world would have gone on in its own dysfunctional way.

The thing? The views I’m expressing are my own, derived from my own independent thinking. My opinions are not part of any greater movement, nor are they handed down to me by some atheist authority.

If they sound to you as though they are part of some angry coordinated movement, then perhaps the fault lies with your…

I thought Contact was a idiotic movie. Jodie foster’s character was meant to be a scientist and atheist, and yet she seemed not to have come to her atheism through any process of intellectual inquiry.

When the religious scholar asks her pretty lame questions that would easily have been answered by anyone with a modicum…

Musk has a bad record when it comes to keeping the first of his cars. The original Telsa Mule 1 (a modified 2004 Lotus Elise) was sold off when Tesla nearly ran out of money. It ended up in the hands of my Lotus mechanic.

Coincidentally, while visiting Motorola Mobility, I met the guy who while previously working for…

The Zeiss thing always was bullshit. Zeiss doesn’t make mobile phone lenses. They’re a company with expertise manufacturing polished spherical glass lenses, not in molding plastic aspheres. I’m not sure who’s making these lenses, but it’s likely to be Largan, Genius, Kantatsu, or Sunny Optical. Companies who make most…

Rather than a Silmarillion movie, I’d rather see LotR licensed to HBO so that David Benioff and D. B. Weiss can do a six-season series that does something approaching justice to the source material.

Hmm, went extinct around 10,000 years ago. I wonder which two-legged creature that hunted as a social pack and used manufactured weapons technology arrived in S. America a few thousand years before that?

Hey! Lay off the bats! They have a terrible time being unfairly stigmatized by humans, largely due to superstition. 

Bonus points for using “Manichean” in a Gawker article! Thank you for not dumbing down.

Beric Dondarrion still being alive is a big departure from the books. I won’t go in to the details, apart from saying Lady Stoneheart.

Wouldn’t he still be a bastard, as Rhaegar and Lyanna weren’t married? As such he’d have no claim to the Targaryen name?

Yes, and then you dumbed it down.

So he didn’t really “attack” Paul Feig. I thought this was going to be a story about a physical assult. But no, he only criticized him.

Can Americans actually speak or write about normal human disagreements and contention without applying hyperbole. Arguing is now always a “fight”, and criticizing is now “attacking”.

Wha…

I’m not hurt by it. I’m bored of hearing it, and I know that comparison lies at the heart of much unhappiness in life.

Of course console sales matter, if the sales of a system are too low. But my point is that the Xbox One has a large enough installed base that there are more great games than I could ever play. It’s…

We’re not talking about the Wii U. We’re talking about a system with more than enough great games.
