It’s basically attempted murder.

I think it makes perfect sense, in the internal logic of the game’s universe, that racism and sexism aren’t a factor. It’s the ultimate conclusion of corporate power - your identity doesn’t matter, only the value you generate for the company’s bottom line. 

I thought Obsidian also did a good job with handling the differing philosophies of government and economy in New Vegas.  On my first playthrough, I went all out in supporting the NCR because hey, they were the good guys right?  But on my second playthrough I recruited Arcade Gannon and listened to him a lot more.  I…

Add to that McQueary was legitimately afraid of not only losing his job but also his entire career. If he was blackballed by Penn State, may as well go get that teaching certificate. Telling Paterno was a huge risk on his part. Completely agree that Gladwell is the lowest form of life for rehashing a settled matter,…

If you’re looking to track a 4x4 with 14ish inches of clearance...yes.

Toyota should really switch to the much safer Helium for fuel

God dammit, this shit is going to kill someone. Autonomous cars? Fine, as soon as the tech is sufficient. But this semi-autonomous shit is dangerous. Either I am driving a car, or I am not. I do not wish to have an argument over who is driving my automobile at highway speed, not with a human, and goddamn sure not with…

So are we just conceding that tackling is not a skill we require in kickers?

I hope you’re wearing your flame suit.

Close. Put Hammond on one island with a crate of fine scotch and put Clarkson on another within eyesight with a crate of gin, and let them try to figure out how to get to the other island.

If there was a young man in literally any other profession who made $100 million before he was 30 and decided to retire, he would be lauded. The Wall Street Journal would write thousands of words of wankery praising his acumen and smarts and god bless America.

That’s some pretty damning stuff.  It’s almost as if powerful people were friends with Jeffrey Epstein and his contacts kept him above the law.  Almost as if our entire justice system were fundamentally broken due to corruption; but if that were true then we’d see a lot of poor, largely powerless individuals being…

Look at the lady in the first row next to Adam Silver. That is serial killer level of chill.

It’s not, in fact, difficult to care about the fundamental humanity and dignity of working people in a city you’ve never been to, and to be upset when their public infrastructure gets gutted as a way of throwing money at a billionaire. This is a really weird concern trolling take

He’s right about people in general, not just golfers. They don’t think ahead while in line. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in a TSA security line and half the people walk up to the podium and only then start pulling out their ID and boarding pass. Or they don’t get out the credit card at the store until all…

This article shows a fundamental lack of understanding of how crash safety requirements work. As a current crash safety engineer at a major OEM, please let me take a few moments to clear some things up.

...but McGrath is a self-described moderate who believes the Democrats currently running for president are veering too far to the left. She doesn’t support eliminating private insurance under a Medicare-for-all plan, nor does she support subsidizing healthcare for undocumented immigrants. She also describes herself as…

Sometimes the writers here come off as living in a bubble. 

I don’t need her to be a leftist dream, I need her to be better than Mitch. It’s a pretty low bar. Campaigning in a way that talks to voters she needs to win over, conservatives who have probably voted red their whole lives (or voted southern democrat when that was still a thing) is smart. 

The Romans?? Seriously?
