Ha! This is the last nail on io9's coffin. I literally can't trust any review you do from now on.

I don’t know why, but scrolling, I thought Phoebe’s pic was Alicia Vikander.

“Indiana Jones and the Cynical Pile of Cash We Can Get Mining Sentimental Fan Boy Shut-Ins To Death.”

Whenever I read the words “Symbiote Suit” I’m reminded of seeing Spider-Man 3 in theaters and when the symbiote appeared hearing a guy tell his girlfriend it was the “Ambient Suit.”

The “adults” swooning over chicken nuggets and box mac and cheese (I see them noodles) need to sue their parents for neglect.

Also, if Kardi B is a mother and duoed with Ice Spice, wouldn’t the song be a ‘Cardimom and Ice Spice Blend’?

Cold chicken nuggets and cold corn on the cob, eh?

Seriously. Microsoft isn’t doing simultaneous PC/Xbox releases out of some sort of magnanimous care for gamers, they’re doing it because their core business is deeply entrenched in PCs and cultivating that part of the market will make them more money. It’s a smart business move.

Exactly. If this works and they pivot away, isn’t this a good thing?

What’s so surprising about this? Sony wants to cultivate its platform first and foremost; of course they’re going to prioritize their console. Microsoft also has a *massive* stake on personal computers, so simultaneous releases make perfect sense for them.

they’ll lobby to ban the better chemistry lol

No, but having them get their livelihood moved away from fossil fuels can help inspire them to stop getting in the way of fixing the planet.

Can you PLEASE stop your embedded videos from autoplaying? It's a pain when my phone is paired with speakers.

One thing it’ll definitely clean out is my bank account.

Yeah, it’s not bigotry if it’s aimed at a race or gender we don’t like. Right? White women can’t be part of a diversity conversation. It’s ok to paint a group of people with a derogatory label so long as we agree that we don’t like that group. These white women should just be quiet and know their place. Right…

Seems pretty obvious that, at least for now, a chatbot can’t write a good script. However, it doesn’t feel like it will take long before it can write a script that equals the many poor efforts in currently streaming content.

Thank you.  We are at the Model-T right now.   Could just be a cool party trick that goes the way of the dodo, but the fact that they are putting in protective factors makes me think that the Writers Guild believes it will actually just improve and start taking jobs.  Rather than being restrictive, people need to get…

Your first paragraph is a silly absolutism that sounds like a 1920s person claiming “the horseless carriage will NEVER go faster than 30mph! Unthinkable!”.

Willow, the excellent but criminally under-watched sequel show ...

China stealing. News at 11.

Hiring a Chinese national for any sensitive IP work is a terrible idea. Theft of IP is a huge driver for China’s economy and military, and I hope stories like this have a chilling effect.
