meh, i haven’t played vice city in nearly 20 years at this point. I don’t think i’d even have noticed if not for this article.

My only very mild, mostly irrelevant concern with the removal of the Confederate flag from the dimwit’s shirt is that it’s fun to mock people (or in this case, characters) who fetishize it. I’m sure Rockstar’s only thought is “the flag is generally offensive, just get rid of it regardless of the context,” which is…

It’s also used to simplify the confederate state of government which had already failed once in the US, before the Civil War. The conservative south tried to tout it as the original promised government, even though it failed, hard. You can pretty much draw a straight line from that attitude to the problems we face…

Seems unnecessary.  Confederate flags are basically the equivalent of signs that say “I am a shitbag,” which seems right on brand for this guy.  

Many skincare ingredients have been studied for decades and decades and are scientifically proven. Vitamin C, retinol, BHA/AHA, ceramides, etc and their effects are very well studied. Cosmetic chemistry is a legit field involving a lot of testing and peer reviewed studies. Dermatology certainly isn’t based on puff…

Have you been living under a rock? The truth matters now more than ever. The anti-vaxxer rhetoric had similar origins. Look at the damage that has caused to society.

Because consumer education is way up on the subject especially in the younger target demographic she’s after. Skincare consumers now have far more resources on which ingredients do what and the science behind cosmetic and skincare chemistry. Many brands now are bare bones and use only proven, well-studied actives now…

All “white” light contains blue light. Does not matter if it is from the sun, computer screen, light bulb, or a candle. It’s just part of the spectrum. Light from a display has no more blue in it than a fluorescent or halogen lamp. Incandescent or candles will have slightly lower blue levels, that what makes the light…

“Honestly, I think it’s very commendable and admirable that Rae is trying to branch out of gaming. I just think that the blue light stuff is a little bit iffy.”

Ah, the Skinner dilemma. If you’re Skinner, how do you know you’re Skinner?

I like the mindset where you go “when I talk about this clearly bad thing people come out of the woodwork to tell me it’s bad, what’s up with that?”

“From a video-gaming perspective alone, think about the value of minting an item that you get in the latest version of Diablo or Borderlands and being able to truly “own” that item. This opens a much more reliable secondary market and may help to prevent theft or cloning. Just my thoughts, proceed in tearing them to…

A buyer might hope to flip it for more money to a sucker, but if you’re not an insider then you’re the sucker.

when you buy an NFT you don’t own a special copy of anything. the NFT is just a file that links to a website. you don’t own that URL or even the content of the page. the person who originally created it still owns the rights to whatever is there. you just own that unique file that links to that page. this is why it’s…

I have yet to see anyone come up with a legitimate value proposition for NFTs. I get how they make the SELLERS money, but what’s in it for me, the buyer? As far as I can tell, nothing but an inflated sense of self worth because I apparently now own a special copy of something no one else has (and that’s only IF I buy…

an NFT is basically a file that is a unique cryptocurrency token that links to a web page. because it’s a unique file people think that makes it more special than just normal cyptocurrency like bitcoin because it’s value can fluctuate alot more. the goal with this stuff seems to have been to give artists a way to…

The best I can tell is that in a world where digital media is indistinguishable and easily pirated, it’s a way of saying “here’s proof that I actually own this thing, even if you have a digital copy of it that is exactly the same.”
I understand the frustration that artists and other digital content makers have (I’ve…

This is the way

Why would we want just a shot for shot remake? That’s boring af.

They aren’t going to dub over an English series with more English.
