that’s why they are rich and you’re an idiot who sold an e39 m5

Probably the same as Elon Musk is doing. Finance any ridiculous tech venture because I got fuck you money. Also finance a shitton of research along with it. Advance science and technology. I assume that advancement would better the world too, but its not my explicit goal. I’d just love to make crazy new technology…

Unpopular opinion here: Everyone is blowing this way out of proportion.
Yes, it was dumb. No, I’d never do that to any of my kids.

You can always tell you’re dealing with the “woke” left whenever they’re more ticked off about an issue regarding marginalization than someone who actually is a part of the marginalized group. Bonus points when they’re actively attacking the marginalized person who has the temerity to think that it’s not that big a…

Shush now, there are no grey areas! People are either totally correct, or ‘history’s greatest monster’ wrong.

Sure, because Eddie Izzard is not a conservative, and make no mistake, woke culture has nothing to do with progressive liberalism. It is conservative extremism with a different set of priorities. Liberals don’t attempt to silence or “cancel” anyone they disagree with. Liberals don’t try to purge art of ideas and…

This beating up of Rowling is getting old. You go back to the original statement that caused this ruckus and its not a fraction as ‘offensive’ as the media’s retelling of the story implies. Is J.K. Rolling a 20-something suburban American hipster who struts around wearing being ‘woke’ on their sleeve? No she isn’t.

It’s not so much the carbon in carbon fiber that makes it hard to recycle, but rather the epoxies and polyurethanes that impregnate those fibers.

OK, yeah, I took two minutes and googled up the links to these materials that honestly probably should have been in the article in the first place. ampliTex and powerRibs do not in themselves replace carbon fiber as we commonly think of it. What most people think of when they say “carbon fiber” is technically “carbon…

An interesting material that may have many applications in the future. It sounds though like this is intended to be a flexible material, no? I don’t see any reference to a resin or anything else that would harden this stuff, only what sounds like two different types of fabric. That may be useful for some things, but…

I will be following this with great interest. I’m excited. I wonder how many other Blizzard staff are thinking of joining, and if there are non-compete clauses that need to expire.

Also, what’s the over/under on Dreamhaven buying the Blizzard IPs in 20 years when Activision finally flushes them down the toilet?

“ I’m thinking the only way to do such a thing would be to build a proper fish-bowl out of an AMC Pacer. Weld everything shut, seal it up tight, enter the car through a hole in the roof, fill it to the brim with water, and drive it in a full scuba suit. I’ll go start drawing up the plans.”

This.  All of this.  The author’s view is too simplistic.  He’s taking groups of hundreds of thousands of people and acting like they are some monolith.

yea this whole piece is so weird. it’s literally asking for more depictions of racism in a video game.

Picture this:

Anyone else picturing how this article would have been written if the game HAD included those elements?

“RDR 2 is incredibly unwelcoming to people of color. Everywhere there are signs that say “whites only” and “no blacks”. NPCs react differently to your white character and your black counterparts in the game...”

From what I’m reading, it seems like the studio acknowledged that the Jim Crow South was racist and had the main protagonist act as progressive foil. What they didn’t do is depict every facet of segregation such as“No Colored Allowed” signs or lynchings. (Would you really be okay with Rockstar “profiting” off…

You’re mad because the protagonist in this game is not black and the white dude you were forced to play as doesn’t have 21st century wokeness?

This guy really lives in your mind rent free huh?? Everyday its another complaint or nag about him. Can we get back to things like the top 10 lists we all used to love?? Im tired of seeing what he ate for breakfast or what shoes he decided to wear. The AMG GT Black Series was just shown off, why cant we read about…
