I bet you think you’re real slick when you roll up the window as the old guy comes by trying to sell you flowers.

Ha, good luck getting a European to admit he or she is racist. Although I’d be remiss if I didn’t note the US has an entirely different immigration problem than the US; year over year, net, illegal immigrants are actually leaving the US.

No, it isn’t. I live in the US. The idea of vigilantes patrolling the border is so unpopular even American pop culture depicts them exclusively as incompetent or bad guys. This is “controversial” to a very narrow section of people, 99% of whom do not even read comic books.

I have to laugh at the idea that this is “controversial” or “edgy.” Basically Sam just said “Hey, maybe we shouldn’t let armed assholes bully people.” That’s not exactly a big controversial statement.

You want to get hit by ANYTHING going 220mph? I don’t. It may not blow your brains out but it’s not going to be a fun experience.

Obligatory:

Yeah, if they can make that work, that might have some appeal, but it’s still $200 on top of a $400 console and a $60 game. I don’t see that a must-have, to be honest.

Yeah, a lot of commercial veggie burgers are awful. Homemade ones are pretty good, at least.

People can be both fascinated by the science and incredibly juvenile at the same time. :-)

Well, VR is a useful industrial product, Oculus is trying to make it a consumer product, and therein lies the struggle. But yeah, you’re right, AR is ultimately an enterprise tool for Microsoft.

Yes. And if that bothers you?

Then the recent trend in meat prices are good news for you.

“The taste isn’t there” is why mankind invented sauces.

The problem with Oculus, right now, is two-fold. One, they are terrible at marketing. Oculus has that terrible Time cover, Microsoft has that Minecraft demo. Saying “You have to try it for yourself” is the same pitch herbal supplements make.

Ever read “We Stand On Guard?” Things might not go that well...

Not if you delete your games when you’re done with them and put your saves in the cloud. Which I know a lot of people don’t do but honestly, it bugs me when a game I’m done with is just sitting there in the UI. Begone with you! I have drained your precious bits of all the fun they can give me! I will have the bits of…

I believe they’re all edited down. I read somewhere that this was basically an attempt in the mid-’80s to salvage a bunch of godawful exploitation movies by cutting them into an anthology film and putting it out on home video.

It’s aged like wine. Before, the mook in the second part was just some dude. Now, it’s “Hey, it’s that guy from Night Court!”

Everybody’s got something to do, Charlie.

THANK YOU. Cyclists, get the hell out of my crosswalk!
