The sad part is that he actually seems a little more lucid when he’s talking like a rock troll from The Witcher than he is when he’s attempting to use more conventional grammar..

Eh...the Martians are indirectly part of the weaponized asteroid problem, not victims of it.

Yeah, who’s “undecided” after these past three years is either an outright idiot that can’t be reasoned with, or is simply a closet Trump supporter who doesn’t want to admit it in polite company. There’s no point in wasting time and energy on those people.

Bioshock.

Couldn’t be much worse than episodes VII-IX ended up, so why not?

3. Extraction of Martian resources that help the colony thrive or can be sold at a profit on earth?

That’s a little further out. The more immediate concern would be these guys...

I’m not a big fan of a lot of Disney’s strong-arm business tactics.  But this is one instance where I would get a good laugh from them suing the crap out of that t-shirt vendor for copyright infringement.

I just bought a 55 inch 4k TCL 4-series Roku TV from Costco a couple weeks ago for $250. Is it a mind-blowing cinematic experience? Of course not. But is it light years ahead of the TV $250 could have bought you five years ago? Definitely.

60 mg of caffeine per 1/2 teaspoon of MiO energy (mixed w/8 oz water), according to the company’s website.

A one-way ticket to Mars doesn’t seem like quite such a horrible option when staying home looks like that...

I totally agree that selling your entire social circle on new texting app is pointless, but it’d be naive to think that there isn’t a more advanced successor to the NSA’s PRISM system capable of reading anything/everything you send.

Are there downsides to Signal? Sure—the main hurdle is that you need to get everyone you text with to use it as well, which is admittedly a giant pain in the ass.

Yeah, saying “We’ll give you a few months of transition assistance to match your old coal mining salary, teach you to drive a backhoe/finish asphalt/etc and guarantee you a job with the DOT fixing roads and bridges” makes *vastly* more sense than pitching them on “Brush up on the calculus and discrete mathematics you d…

I think we can all agree that coal is a zombie industry. The market for coal is drying up, and no amount of misguided deregulation and incentives are likely to change that. As such, I’m all for the wholesale retraining of people in the business. There are a lot of opportunities to pivot into a new career that could…

The Netflix interpretation of The Witcher was...ok-ish, but could have been orders of magnitude better as an animated series with Doug Cockle continuing to voice Geralt.

Two words: parental controls. They’re not just for keeping teenagers from watching Skinemax anymore.

The loss of Fox News could rattle a not-insignificant proportion of semi-retired boomers across the south and Midwest free from their Trump-stupor. Just in time for 2020...I’m all for it.

I’ve gotten vastly more Star Wars satisfaction out of S1 of The Mandalorian than I have from seeing SW episodes 7-9 in the theatre.

My gaming resolution - to save up an extra $500 by the end of 2020 to get an Xbox Series X to future-proof my gaming for the next five or six years.
