The swatting situation is a bit different, as the would-be victim deliberately provided a false address to the swatter. Otherwise, I agree with you completely. I still get angry about the security guard whose life was ruined by the news media. He literally saved lives by identifying a suspicious item and evacuating…

Put some Firestone tires on it and it will be fine.

If legislation could be passed requiring side cameras to meet up to certain dimensional and interface requirements, cameras failing wouldn’t have to be a big deal. Granted, I wouldn’t place high odds on that actually happening.

Yes, I remember reading that article pretty recently.

I’d gladly buy a car to avoid riding the bus, but if I literally could not afford a $100 bus ticket, I don’t think I could afford $100 in gasoline either. 

Find me a bank that will give me a loan for a tank full of gasoline.

To be honest, if you didn’t like the ending of the base game, you probably won’t like the endings of the DLC either. I enjoyed the DLC episodes primarily for their depiction of Rapture, which I think was done better in the DLC than it was in the original Bioshock. But in terms of story, I didn’t like the DLC endings…

There's nothing confusing about the title. Just pick up the phone, give Hammond a call, and chat for a little while.

Well, both industries are staffed by people paid to make other people take it up the ass...

On tractor trailers, I’ve noticed that the tread on the double width tires seems to match the width of a pair of normal tires, so I’m not sure the gap between the tires would actually be relevant--if the tires on that pickup truck hold to the same principle. Also, even though the wheel is wider, it would only need one…

Given that a truck like that would have originally had a dually tire setup on it, those wheels might actually have less rotational mass than the factory setup.

Yep. It’s an odd, but increasingly common sight seeing an 18-wheeler on the freeway with 10 wheels.

That’s understandable, but keep in mind that you might very well end up helping to kill your child instead. It’s one thing to pull someone out of a burning car after a normal collision, where emergency responders are probably minutes away and speed limits are reasonable. It’s another thing entirely to do that on a…

If rule 46b says not to cross the white line because the other side of the line is where I can get killed by a vehicle moving well over 150mph, or a sudden flare-up can engulf me in flames that my shorts will not protect against, then yes, I’m going to stay at a safe distance. Watching someone or something you love…

Agreed. Given the situation, the father put himself at risk of being the only fatality that day. 

Insomniac didn’t make that engine at Microsoft’s request. They had already made the engine for a previous title, so it was their code. Furthermore, Microsoft didn’t ask Insomniac to make Sunset Overdrive--that was an internally approved project at Insomniac. Microsoft basically just acted as a publisher and gave them…

Correction: Those were trademark issues, not copyright. Different set of laws. Otherwise, I wholeheartedly agree, and with the trademark laws were updated to be more sensible.

No big company would do anything blatantly illegal behind the scenes that might get exposed later. Just ask Volkswagen.

And Facebook made over $40 billion in 2017. It sure didn’t stop Zenimax (Bethesda’s parent company) from suing a Facebook-owned company (Oculus VR) and winning a $500 million judgment. When it comes to a legal battle, Zenimax and Bethesda are perfectly capable of holding their own against the big dogs.

Plus, it’s not affected by the cannon cooldown that happens if you get overrun. On the easiest levels, there’s no need to fire using the mouse button at all. On medium levels so far, I only bother mouse-clicking on the toughest enemies to supplement the [1] attack.
