I don’t think an overstretched rubber band is capable of being tired.

My question is, how is this a hack? You’re creating MORE work for BOTH parties. They have to take extra time to carefully load everything into individual containers, and he has to put it all together on his own. Am I missing something here? He’s doubling the work for everyone involved.

The mortgage was abandoned and the house was vacated. It didn’t technically belong to anyone at that point. Dude followed the letter of the law to a T and no one was victimized in the process. Point me to any corporation (such as, oh, a bank?) with the same track record.

I’m not entirely sure where all this Post Malone hate comes from. Just to be sure I wasn’t crazy I went back and listened to the song. The lyrics are essentially: “Hello, person of the opposite sex. I spend a lot of money to try and impress you. I have braids [He actually has braids]. I’m not rich but I’m not poor, so…

”some Melee players opt to use controllers that are technically malfunctioning, in order to execute otherwise impossible moves on a standard controller.”

Even the simplest of games have bugs. Code kind of has a life of its own and it’s incredibly hard to find and quash even the most mundane bugs - and doing so often screws something else up so you’ve gotta go back in all over again. When I worked at a developer, our flagship game was a fairly simple 2D free-to-play,…

Treason is on the table for literally every single American. That’s why Americans are so protective of the second amendment; it’s literally in place to enable mass uprisings against the government (which is treason).

To each their own, I guess. I’m not really a Cincy chili apologist but I’d rank it about on par with Japanese curry. They even share a hell of a lot of ingredients. And seriously, I’d recommend giving Skyline (or any other Cincy parlor) another shot, but next time avoid the spaghetti and stick with coneys. I may be…

Yeah, there’s a lot of stuff out there in the world that looks a lot worse than Cincinnati chili. Japanese curry looks like legit diarrhea, and you’re often eating it while sitting at a counter directly in front of the sink they use to wash the pots, so imagine trying to eat poo gravy while someone in front of you…

Hey man, you should see what the Japanese eat

I absolutely love these deep dives. Kotaku, more long form please :)

The Wall Street Journal is not exactly known for its gaming coverage, so I don’t think they stand to benefit much from deliberately putting Pewdiepie in their crosshairs, and I haven’t seen any other YouTuber hit pieces from them. They clearly understand that there’s little to no overlap in demographics for them.…

The mistake people make is assuming you have to order the spaghetti. The coney is the far superior option. The bun helps to sop up a bit of the gross sloppiness of the chili and the tang of the mustard helps to balance out the spicy/salty flavors. It’s also a much more attractive presentation. I’m betting Cincy chili…

You’re kind of blatantly ignoring a few key things:

Yeah, but JonTron pretty clearly qualifies as a public figure. By definition, the public defines what is and is not acceptable of a public figure, and JonTron has overstepped those bounds. You don’t get a free pass to be an asshole as a public figure, just like you don’t get a free pass to be an asshole at a desk job.…

I dunno, but I pass through Harajuku almost every day and I haven’t seen someone in a goth lolita getup in a very long time. There are a few shops but they’re niche. It’s like emo; there are a few holdouts but it’s largely gone from the public eye. My point is that western media is often badly misinformed about Japan…

A year or two ago, I debated with my English friends that soccer is by far the most insane sport. They countered that American football leads to brain damage. My rebuttal was that fans and players literally kill each other over soccer matches. Now we have a soccer club hiring a confessed murderer weighed against the…

That whole “Gothic Lolita” thing in Harajuku was just a fad that died out years ago. Nowadays, you hear people talking about “Dekopa” but you’d be hard pressed to find somebody dressed like that even in Harajuku. All those off-kilter Japanese fashion trends tend to have a shelf life of a few years, usually with a…

My advice? Get a passport and a visa. Live in another country for a while. If you like it better there, live there for a longer while. If you really, really like it, become a permanent resident or a naturalized citizen.

I think this quote from the Daily Beast article is pretty telling:
