RockPrincess there probably wouldn’t be so pissed off if Chuck Norris were doing this.

Also, “organic” pesticides? Scary as shit. Rotenone in particular can kill fish, although pyrethrin is probably OK. Relatively. It’s still a goddamn poison, which people don’t seem to grasp.

Some of ‘em, yeah.

Yeah, remember when Mitt sat on his tax returns for months and then finally forked them the fuck over, and the thing he was so scared of was people latching onto the fact he only paid 14% in taxes? I admit I was hoping for something juicy, but I found it really weird that was what they were so worried about. I mean,

“I can totally use your emotional pain to put my dick in you!” - Sociopaths.

I don’t always succeed at not being an asshole, but I try dammit.

Yeah, this has come up for me a few times. Telling a manager that I don’t want to fuck over his employees and having him shrug was... memorable.

Yeah, I’ll order a complicated drink, but, like, I’ll think ahead the answers to any questions and just give them the full order so they can just square it away and move on to the next guy. It’s just respectful to be aware they’ve got time pressures too.

True, and I’m not going to not order something if I want it, but by the same token, they deserve respect, and if I’m not their only customer, I feel like it’s just a good thing to do.

The Hololens I think is a separate conversation; Microsoft is basically trying to leapfrog augmented reality tech, not VR. But honestly, I don’t see Morpheus doing very well, either. I own a PS4 and I just have zero interest.

Sure, but PC gamers are a tiny group. And the PC gamers who want to use the Oculus are a smaller group.

This is why when I buy coffee I keep my order as simple as humanly possible. I figure it’s the least I can do.

There is, believe it or not, an equivalent test for men in the Chinese military. Basically they have a doctor jam a finger up your ass to see if somebody’s ever jammed a penis up your ass.

Diablo with a controller is glorious.

Comixology, or the Marvel Unlimited app.

The FF is nowhere close to the middle of the road for Marvel. It’s been pretty consistently near the bottom for years, and we really can’t argue Marvel hasn’t been trying to fix this for years, either. They’ve brought in top talent, they put their biggest character on the team, they completely retooled the book, and

Also worth noting is how much talent Marvel’s thrown at it. Jonathan Hickman, Matt Fraction, James Robinson, Leonard Kirk, Mark Bagley... Like, you can’t make an argument Marvel didn’t try to save the book. None of those guys come cheap, none of them are hacks.

It’s nice to pretend that the Fantastic Four are getting the shaft, but the reality is:

To be fair to Oculus, they signposted the hell out of this; they never pretended this wasn’t going to need a workhorse.

Actually, it’s the result of poor hiring practices and a refusal to invest in labor. If your company is working its employees sixty hours a week, it’s because somebody decided they could make that happen instead of paying for a new employee.

The problem is, this practice is predicated on the belief that it’s never
