I've always liked Biden, from the eloquently-stated comments such as these (and these are on POINT) to the hands-in-the-air-wave-them-like-you-just-don't-care "MALARKEY!" moments. A friend of mine once called him a loose cannon, but I think it's the opposite. I think he's been around so long that he just doesn't give…

The thing with violence against men is that mostly, men are the ones with agency in games. Nobody is saying violence against any other person, male or female, is not bad. What they are saying is that women characters lack agency and are just decorations that get fridged.

I'm all for bringing back the greys, with one condition:

It was actually our inspectors idea and our agent agrees that it helped, though there's no way I tell how it would have played out had we fixed everything.

A Kotaku Jezebel cross-post focused around micro-transactions, casual games, and Kim Kardashian.

Yes, it doesn't work when only one company is beholden to the ratio. It would work just fine if every company had to abide.

No more stock options. CEO's can get a paycheck like every other worker, and if they want to purchase company stock with the money that they're paid they'd be free to do so.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHY?!

If this is what you need to do to get a sense of achievement, you seriously need to rethink your life.

Never been a big fan of puzzles in my RPGs. I loved old school D&D PC games, but absolutely loathed the "here are 25 switches on the floor. Figure out which ones need to be pressed, in which order. Be prepared to spend 5 hours doing this." Or the ol' "Here are 20 teleporters. There is one specific order that will get…

"Perhaps Twitter just isn't the place for important conversations".

They really have lost sight of their way in the last year or two. They used to be about serving their fans but now Valve is becoming more and more like EA or Activision.

So true. I have to note that I only use the steam client on my machines, and refuse to install origin (based on the permanent distrust of and dislike for EA). I like the fact that steam consolidates and groups my library. But there are obvious issues with the library as well.

I love all these to-do lists but the one thing that is really frustrating is that everything is dependent on gCal and iOS calendar. I am not an independent freelancer who lives out of a coffee shop working exclusively in the web. I work in a corporate environment that utilizes ActiveSync / Exchange and the fact I…

This is a 1971 Citroën SM Interior. And it still looks better and more modern than todays

I tried all kinds of shit to stop the bullies when I was a kid. Ignoring, playing, being nice, fighting back. You know what worked? Telling. And no, they didn't like me. But they obviously already didn't like me, so I gave no fucks.

The French authorities have said that all the DNA tests will be destroyed afterwards (except the one of the eventual rapist of course) so there'll be no biometric data left after the investigation is closed. And no, I don't think they're lying but I do think a lot of people have read 1984 way too many times and are…

I'm in full support of getting a DNA sample of every person in the country (and to enter the country), putting it in a federal database, and using it to solve crimes. That's a kind of security measure I can get behind.

Remember, teenage brains are still developing, their hormones are out of wack, there is evidence to show that they have trouble putting things in perspective. Its a very scary time to go through something like depression, to not have the experience to know whats going on with anything, to feel peer pressure and adult…

Sometimes when you wanna get them in the red, you go a little too far.

So now we live in a world where it's OK to be an asshole because if your douchebaggery is a problem for someone, they're just being overly sensitive?
