Seems more probable to me that they just lifted the idea of slow death by greyscale. Jorah's plot isn't really interchangeable with Connington's.

Why is Jorah getting sick with greyscale not the important thing? Sure there may be something more, but this is a major character from season 1 who has just been doomed to death. Seems silly to treat it as parenthetical.

It did, but Valyria isn't inaccessible. Lots of people are scared of it but Euron Greyjoy claims to have been there.

According to most grammar authorities it's not actually a rule.

Yes. Jorah's been swapped with Jon Connington, who got grayscale after saving Tyrion. So it was a rather sad scene to watch.

Like white males..?

Why do you keep saying that? Many non-whites and non-males play video games. Are you just trolling? What point are you trying to make? I don't get it…

Women and ethnic minorities can take an interest in technology too… don't really understand why you're making these sexist/racial remarks.

Well not in private no. And those ugly bulky things are dev kits… eventually it (or another company's) will be Apple-fied. Dunno why white guys are relevant.

Article talks about the later release of the Morpheus but ignores 2015's commercial release of Valve and HTC's headset, why?

Literally thousands of people.

What on Earth are you trying to say…

Wait, are we talking about George's twin or George's ear now?

I disagree. That is indeed exactly how warfare really works and was precisely Rowling's point. If a work of literature purports to portray warfare with realism but the special characters all have invisible protective shields around them, then actually it's failed as realism.

A realistic portrayal of the realities of warfare is what Rowling went for. That's her decision as the author. You're basically arguing that she should have felt beholden to genre clichés.

Pages of scribbled calculations later and I'm still desperately trying to understand we're supposed to frown upon an author for sporadically chatting about her books.

The fact that they were arbitrary was the entire point.

Plus writing critically acclaimed books like A Cuckoo's Calling.

Should've been George.

Beniof and Weiss's decision was a creative one, not a personal or financial one; at least to hear them tell it.
