Either you have her behave exactly like the male Bonds—a womanizing, martini-drinking, tuxedo-wearing, quip-happy assassin—which...could be kind of fun, but a lot of people would just interpret it as parody. Or you completely rewrite the character, in which case the best possible audience reaction would probably be…

I know I would much rather see something like Black Panther which is by and about POC that tells stories from their perspective than “It’s James Bond but he’s [record scratch] a Lady!?”

I remember my first college economics class and this professor who proudly exclaimed if there was no minimum wage laws then people would be paid a lot more. I wonder if these people have ever acknowledged their naivety. Companies will always fight to pay as little as possible and seeing how much they fight against…

I think it is great that Mr. MacFarlane and the Family Guy staff did this. I have no idea whether it will move the needle or not, but if it convinces even one hold out to get the shot it will be worth it.

This was a surprisingly pleasant PSA. Moderately funny, nothing about it that really annoyed me. I wish the entire show could keep this level of humor.

I can’t help but wonder if any form of Sopranos prequel would be able to work. A huge part of what made The Sopranos work so well was its milieu—the pitch-perfect representation of America in the late 90s/early 00s, the autumnal unease of it all. It worked because it mirrored the state of the Mafia, and threw its…

Yep. I did reduce all of your whingeing to a gag.  Comedy is great, ain’t it?  Anyway,  hope you found a show you like.  Ta.

You’re funny looking and smell bad!

Oh my god it’s distasteful? Are you sure?

Just give it to Jennings, jesus, it’s a dumb tweet, still better than Bialik’s victim blaming and hocking junk science (plus being on TBBT, a sin no one can be forgiven of).

Abusers always deny the allegations against them

Thats not actually how this played out. I dont think anyone other then this click baity headline would say that Epic won. Epic does not get their own distribution platform in iOS, Epic does not get their own payment processing in iOS. What Epic and all other developers did win is a victory for common sense. They are…

Yeah.. that headline is as misleading as aTrump tweet.

My friend and his wife (a lawyer by profession, so she knew what she was doing) split up about five years ago. She made very similar allegations against him, right down to coaching the kids to say that he’d abused them, all of which were eventually proven to be totally untrue. He went through hell because of a…

Not to say it wasn’t a good conference without things to get fans excited, but there does seem to be a collective amnesia going on about the nature of CGI trailers.....

Anyone else does them: Urgh, how can you be hyped for a CGI trailer with no release date!

That’s not really the same thing though, right? The first PS3s had PS2 chips, so they weren’t emulating anything - in effect, they were PS2s in a different shell. The system detected you had a PS2 disc in and ran the PS2 hardware, no emulation at all. For the MiSTer to do that, they’d have to have physical chips from…

And as much as I love Analogue’s FPGA-based retro consoles, why pay a couple of hundred bucks for one of those when a MiSTer plays games just as well from several dozen game platforms?

“The drawback is that [Analogue’s] products only cover one platform at a time.”

The Analogue devices, while expensive, still have value in the sense that a company has put the FGPA together in a package that a customer does not have to assemble. The drawback is that their products only cover one platform at a time.

The MiSTer is a do-it-yourself project, where you have to choose the parts to…

Oh, tell us more about unreasonable outrage, guy who imagined a backlash in order to bemoan it. See if you can work the phrase “female actress” back in there while you’re at it.
