Condoning American government propaganda is sure okay though! Because dirty fucking liberals gonna dirty fucking liberal. Enjoy your inability to deal with reality!

That works whether you’re talking about batplague or a failed Mars colony!

One of the most terrifying things about creativity is that it’s not reliable. I wish things were more deterministic, but sometimes a story just doesn’t come together. Look at the Pratchetts: 40+ books, some real bangers, but also, a lot of misfires that are, frankly, boring. Rincewind cannot carry a narrative; Vimes…

Can’t blame the spread. There’s a wiki. The story of the games you haven’t played is available online. The problem with KH is bad writing. Adding more bad writing is like a bad coder patching one bug and causing two. The writing style is pure emotional appeal with zero input from the rational mind. I’ve known a lot of…

It is interesting that the plot is driven both by the old plot and the fact the game is literally haunted by the spirits of the old plot trying to maintain the timeline, whereas every fan is trying desperately to save Aeristhethes and/or the scooby gang of friendly neighborhood antifa.

this needs to go betwtix my bosom so as to add to my unearthly cyberpunk allure

The most deadly launch vehicle ever made, hilariously complicated, with a per launch cost of $500 million, ten times the goal launch cost, which is even worse when you start looking at the math, as NASA is too corrupt to even put a definite figure on the cost. The fucking Soviets just copied the same project and did a…

One of the ugliest things about white supremacy - and there’s a lot of competition at the top of that list - is non-white people fighting tooth and nail to be treated white.

So this article is pretty thin, here’s a tip, there’s current a glut of chicken wings on the market because quarantine, perhaps an article on recipes?

Mine depends on the purpose. All caps for brief professional correspondence. Cursive for prose. A legible combination of the two for fast note-taking.

Synthetic gasoline can be carbon-neutral. But it’s also energetic (read: expensive) to pyrolize organic matter into crude oil, refine crude oil into gasoline, then truck or pipe the gasoline around the countryside. Are they really going to argue that it takes less energy to synthesize gasoline than to boil and electrol…

CA has to use a cleaner blend of gasoline because of all the mountain ranges that run through it (Coastal, Sierra-Nevada, Cascades, Rockies). They trap the smog in. Before the legal mandate for cleaner gasoline, CA had some of the most polluted air in the world. Now CA only has the most polluted air in the US. But…

Cheat sheet for SWTOR fashion: If they’re wearing a stupid hat, they’re the bad guys.

Even within a single component, using electrons to transfer data generates tremendous heat that photonic computation wouldn’t have. At a certain point, computing power is limited not by cores or speed or power but by heat generation and/or the ability to dump heat. In the far future, after economies use energy as…

One of the coolest things about SWTOR is it makes very clear when you are playing Imperial characters that the Empire is constantly committing atrocities. One of the four playable Imperial classes, the Intelligent Agent, is constantly cleaning up the messes of random Sith murders, feuds, invasions, genocides, and…

Can’t collect your check if you’re dead.

White America has always used disease to destroy their enemies. They did it during ebola, the AIDS crisis, Spanish Flu, tuberculosis, smallpox, and they’re doing it today. They did it with environmental devastation; they make peace with locals until their pollution destroys the locals food supply, then announce the…

Fixed your headline bro:

In the latest installment of “the plague may force humans to do what they should’ve already been doing,” we might see an end to dealerships.

So I love potatoes in literally any form. For baked potatoes: Buy some large Idaho russets. Preheat oven to 400 F. Wash spuds, stab with fork on all 6 sides, rub with high-temp oil (NOT evoo), sprinkle with salt, put in the oven middle-rack for 45 minutes. Toppings are beyond the scope of this thread so I’ll just list…
