There is no national requirement in the US that workers receive sick leave. [Source: US Department of Labor]. Nor is there a universal requirement that US workers receive paid vacation days. [Source: US Department of Labor]. As a result, 35% of US non-farm workers do not receive paid sick leave, and 26% of US non-farm…

Retina iMac owners, mostly. The 27” model has a 5k screen. KOTOR I was pretty popular on Macs back in the day.

The New York Court of Appeals is in fact the highest court of appeal in New York state and, from the decision, it appears that the Court of Appeals found a lack of probable cause after the intermediate level court (the Appellate Division) ruled incorrectly. I don’t see any reference to the 1st Amendment right to…

Little known fact: The reason Sheen and Richard’s marriage broke down was because of their differing views on the filioque clause.

To be fair, you can say the same for most human kids up until puberty.

Not a problem!

Here’s one website that tracks such laws: http://www.endrevengeporn.org/revenge-porn-l…

An old one but a good one.

I was thinking that too, but there don’t seem to be any references to admiralty law or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Yes, it sounds like there’s a flaw in the legal framework / judicial procedures for child recovery in Michoacan. Hopefully that’ll be fixed in the near future.

I would be very interested to know why the judge refused to order a DNA test. The last I heard, they’re rather useful in resolving disputes over parentage.

Apparently, the official explanation is that Miranda has a navel piercing containing a small mass effect generator that sucks in the fabric of her... ah, what the hell. It’s 100% fanservice.

The extra screens aren’t really there to be focused on. They’re there to extend the game visuals into your peripheral vision, which can improve immersion and increase situational awareness within the game.

I agree in picking your battles, but this one is worth picking. Transgender individuals (and transgender women in particular) have it really fucking bad in our society - they suffer extremely high rates of physical and sexual violence along with other harassment and hate crimes. For individuals facing that level of…

Yes, GPU naming can be very confusing when you're just getting started. It's particularly bad in mobile gaming, because there aren't that many reviews out there for mobile gaming GPUs. If you just want to do a quick comparison, I strongly recommend the GPU Hierarchy at Tom's Hardware:

FYI, "Gamegated ManFortress" is a parody account created to satirize the perceived logical and ethical failings of the proponents of the "Gamergate" movement. The satire often (as in this post) requires some level of familiarity with the whole "Gamergate" debate to make sense, so I can't blame you for missing it here.

Did you also click through to Freya's production diary? The sheer amount of work she put into making that suit is incredible. The fantastic results are a testimony to what happens from putting hard work, advanced crafting techniques, and attention to detail together in pursuit of a clear vision.

Unfortunately, the reason it's still being talked about all the time is that nothing much has changed (at least in the AAA gamespace). But yes, Kotaku does provide fairly regular coverage on diversity issues in gaming.
