Probably, not like he was going to allow even a judge to interfere with his racist assholism.

By attacking a lawyer in the court house, he’s pretty well poisoned the well with every single judge in the county. His testimony for even traffic tickets won’t be taken as reliable by the judges, seriously impeding his doing a large part of his job. (Unless they want to stick him on permanent desk duty.) So at best he…

In general I just use store-bought bathroom cleaner for our fiberglass tub, but if you have stubborn soap scum that you can’t get up with anything, I found a solution: Easy Off oven cleaner. It has to be the one with the blue cap, the fume-free one. (I’d really hate to smell the fume-full one...) Spray on the soap…

From the article about the previous ban:

Somehow I doubt you wanted to continue pledging after that. Good for you, more people need to retaliate when hazed.

One of the things that impresses me the most is how CCP acts towards the players. For example here, not only were they happy to check and confirm she’d visited every player-accessible system, they also went and pulled her into the one non-player-accessible system in the game so that she’d really been to every system.…

April 2041: Kotaku readers are outraged when someone dredges up an old comment by Jason Schrier promising a Final Fantasy IX retrospective that was to arrive the prior month. By May Kotaku’s headquarters are in flame, torched by angry gamers wanting their retrospective, while Kotaku higher-ups desperately try to locate…

I doubt they even read the article before posting their hot take.

Guess they should cut down on the 10wSriracha.

You’re kinder than me, I’d grab the pellet gun from them and use it for some serious blunt-force trauma until I was forcible restrained. I do not react well to people attacking me. I’m normally a very nice person, but if you piss me off, and it takes a lot to do that, you’re probably going to be having nightmares…

I still use Pine for some accounts (actually Alpine nowadays). I remember first discovering Pine, it was a step up from what I was using before. (That would have been whatever e-mail client I used on the university VAX.)

I know a lot of people in California don’t flush the toilet after peeing to conserve water. While that’s understandable while in California, they tend to do it elsewhere as well, so that may account for some of it. I suspect, however, that it’s worse than that or housekeepers wouldn’t go out of their way to complain…

I like certain kinds of puzzles, but it’s not because of pain. I enjoy the feeling I get when I solve it, that satisified feeling that comes with it. If I start struggling badly with puzzles in a game, I stop playing it. For me making it too hard = pain = I won’t play your puzzle game. Make it tricky, but fair, and…

Most of them don’t realize that at all. The areas they’re based in, and where most of the employees live, has great Internet access available. (Often more than one great service in the area.) As a result they tend to assume that everyone has similar access.

Maybe they’ll go the Google+ route and let it languish undead for years before finally admitting they’re getting rid of it. Then maybe they’ll pull a MySpace and in a few years the stories will be about how they upgraded the servers and lost most of the games in the process. Totally an accident, they weren’t trying to …

I wouldn’t be interested in this either, but I could easily see people that are really into the streamer and the game he/she’s playing wanting to buy the game and play along with the streamer. In that case, starting at the same point the streamer’s at would make sense. It would still be stupid, because they haven’t…

Your comparisons are off, because that’s $72,000 for two people. Each of them is making only $36,000 a year, below your new teacher stat and a bit above your average EMT stat. But it’s actually lower than that, because they have to spend some of that money on game development expenses. If we’re generous and say…

You’re vastly uninformed on this subject. The average internet access speed in the US was 18.7mbps in 2017, based on the most recent official figures I can find. (Since it’s the same speed used by Wikipedia, that’s likely the latest ones available.) It’s very unlikely that’s gone up to 25mbs in two years, as that’s an…

Maybe they could add an entire Bollywood song and dance number between rounds for India. That’d definitely lower the amount of times the kids could spend playing the game!

In GTA, if you did it out in the open, the cops would come after you. So the cops in GTA’s world do a better job than India’s...
