The rampant consumerism was cringefully clear. Whether the IPs that we worship are owned by a large or small circle of corporate giants matters little, despite a Giz blogger’s eagerness to call out the evils of big capitalism whenever possible. If you took the time to watch the lengthy credits (worth it for the Wreck…

They may not have “anticipated” their e-waste impact a decade or two ago, but in 2018 they’ll happily duck that spotlight in favor of profits for as long as their progressive and eco-friendly posture will allow them to.

If there is causality, then you might get the same positive effect by washing the pacifier, having the parent suck on it, then giving it to the child.

Tough week to be a Giz reporter what with multiple sightings of government non-evilness.

I know the “evil” moniker and righteous indignation are obligatory for Splinter, but when municipalities are so eager to play ball, you can’t even chalk this up to corporate greed. C’mon, you said it yourself, it’s free money, Amazon just has to pull up the dump trucks.

Speaking on behalf of Pittsburgh, the fact that the city fought (hard) to avoid divulging the terms of their incentive package leaves me relieved that we won’t have to deal with the “mixed” part of the HQ2 blessing.

That’s not the perspective that a software development company takes at all, I’m afraid.

If an employee finds it they get a thumbs-up emoji from their boss in Slack.

The natural-color images are far more dull, and quite a bit less like an alien latte.

Outstanding guide - more of these for popular M-rated games, please, on behalf of GenX gamer dads far and wide.

These are the archetypal complaints lodged by the party not in power: term limits, unfair elections, abuse of executive authority...liberals will be dry-swallowing the bitter pill of a long-term conservative Supreme Court for decades, and it should at least bring some wry perspective regarding the willingness of so…

Well, the vast majority of the rabid, pitchfork-wielding Gawker audience could learn a lot from your civility and preference for rational discussion to angry name-calling.

The only thing I’m sure of is that there’s no single cause...studies have tried to ascribe it to everything from poverty to “violent sub-culture” theory, but you’d be hard-pressed to find compelling scientific evidence behind why blacks are more likely to commit certain types of crime.

That’s a well-reasoned, if very disillusioned, response.

If they’re different, what objective measure makes them so?  You’ll find the question trollish, but that’s what the judicial system will be trying to settle.

Our culture has long been opening the door to these possibilities...since “identification” is purely subjective, upon what grounds can it be prohibited for age or race or any other observable characteristic? As more of these scenarios appear on the fringe, it will be interesting to see where the line is drawn and the…

Yeah you clearly misunderstood the comment.

Explain how a misunderstanding of correlation and causation can account for our massive disparity in crime rates. Speaking of causation, you would probably argue that felony disenfranchisement = intentional minority voter suppression, which is far from the truth, and actually a case of false cause fallacy...although tr…

“Research shows that overrepresentation of some minorities in the criminal justice system can be explained mostly by disproportionate rates of crime...” - Wikipedia

Bad weather is an influencer that outweighs any Snapchat filter.  Generally it benefits Republicans, this will be interesting.
