Don’t know if you’re kidding or not, but Cardboard is the cheapest way to try out VR. For any where from free (with a little effort) to $15-$40 you can get a Cardboard compatible headset that will house your smartphone for VR. There’s a sea of free VR apps, games, and content out there to use.

Point is, your mom was middle-aged when that rock was created.

There is a Young Earth Creationist joke in there somewhere... I just can’t make it logical.

That’s no moon, it’s a compression artifact!

It seems that outside of the US McDonalds has a different reputation. I think 2015 was the first year they actually closed more stores than the built (last time I heard about it early this year anyway). They’ve been losing money and they’re probably trying to figure out a way to tap in to the quick service segment,…

I do try, however since I’ve had to explain the same things over and over again (part of that has to do with the design of this commenting system and part because people don’t take the time to read threads) that I have sometimes moved a bit towards the aggressive side.

Well, that applies to then voting for government officials, too.

That’s a bit of an illusion since corporate entities play the media and lobbies for both of the major parties.

That applies just as much to voting, unfortunately. Apathy (not “voter apathy”, but just general apathy) is going to continue to become a problem as the issues become more and more complex. As it is, stuff like this requires prior knowledge or taking the time out to read up in order to form an informed opinion about…

As someone corrected me one time, it’s, “Life, uh uh uh, finds a way.”

It also seems that in the states where the state Bar is a private association things have worked out. It also has the added benefit of offloading the burden of licensing and regulation from the public.

When business owners have a business, they don’t rent their things out to others so others can make a profit. There is a price that the…

Is it wrong for me to still want to enjoy Capaldi's performance for a few more years? I like that Michelle Gomez didn't even take part in similar interviews, instead saying:
