Is it? Or is it the thing that makes other things wet?

The problem is that their choice affects more than just themselves and their child they don’t care about keeping alive. Heard immunity is compromised if you get enough of these idiots, so they are potentially killing other innocent people as well.

I’m hoping you do a piece after everyone’s had a chance to digest the upcoming Shadowbringers changes, particularly those for tanks (simplified aggro management) and healers (more focused on healing, hopefully this means more than just reduced healing potency).

Well, a couple of things:

How does this make any sense as online multiplayer? Are there going to be a dozen Hulks running around? Or will it be character-locked, which will devolve into hours of queueing, waiting for someone to begrudgingly join as Black Widow?

It was the summer before my senior year of high school and living in in a village somewhat close to a few small towns, summer jobs were slim. Ended up getting a job at a seed processing plant which had barely any description beforehand. Showed up the first day to see it would be me and two friends from school removing…

Yeah, the story I’ve seen several times is that Lorne didn’t want Norm gone, it was an executive who was friends with OJ (who Norm was constantly making jokes about, saying he clearly did it). Also, I remember watching the show at the time, and Norm’s Weekend Update bits got progressively more cringe-worthy week after…

You know what? Good. As much as it hurts for another X-men movie to suck, if this one had somehow been great, or even kind of good, Disney may have been compelled to keep some elements and people from them. Hopefully audiences will avoid this repeated misstep and Disney can completely overhaul the property and do…

Can someone who knows more about lobbying than me explain why it’s acceptable at all? From my viewpoint it appears to just be institutionalized bribery.

Huh. I can’t stand Corden, but that’s because everything he does seems extremely forced, fake, exaggerated, and soulless. Him being a terrible person isn’t surprising, and is just that much more reason to ignore his mediocrity.

This is actually really sad. You’re an adult for a far longer period of time than you are a child (if you’re lucky), so the math alone is a formula for depression. Also, it suggests that young people look at adults and don’t want their lives, which is a dark admonition of adult life in Japan. Is being an adult really…

Well he could have foreseen much more staggering loses without it. Which would have been one of the many missing elements of character motivation in the last season.

I realize that’s mostly sarcasm, but a lot of people still hold this as their primary worry about AI, and that seriously needs to change. It’s not a valid concern, and it distracts from very real concerns that are already happening.

The easy reaction is that this is a ridiculous way to spend $90m, but most people seem to think this is a consumption transaction, that he bought this because he liked it and aren’t rich people weird, when it’s almost assuredly predominantly an investment decision - he bought this because he’s planning to later sell…

What about absolute financial liability? If someone is killed with a gun, the victim’s life is actuarialized into a dollar amount (perhaps multiplied punitively) that the owner of the gun is legally required to pay to the victim’s family, or public organization in the event of no family. If the gun somehow has no…

Ha, right? It’s like when people get upset about my anthrax, nuclear device, and deathray collection. Sure the world is full of more fun things than any one person could ever enjoy, but this specific fun is worth the potential cost of innocent human lives, be they strangers or family. I mean, innocent people probably…

The question about how to do it effectively is about how the West can secularize a foreign country - it can’t just be taken over, and the US’ past efforts to control foreign cultures hasn’t gone so well.

I’ve seen a lot of people arguing that Dany should get the throne because she’s worked so hard for it, but I don’t think those people have really thought that through. This isn’t a prize, just a title to make her feel good, it’s a position of considerable power in which slight decisions could elevate or decimate many…

Well it’s not about starting from immigration and finding a rationalization later, it’s just that we have this situation where rejecting immigration will create more terrorists - NIMBY will cost lives. Secularizing their countries would benefit both them and us, but how do you do that effectively? Muslims being…

Not sure about that CIA idea, I mean who knows, but it definitely wouldn’t have to be the case. Their main goal isn’t to destroy the west, it’s to gain more members, but that’s hard to do if all the local Muslims are immigrating to get away from them. Other takeaways from the piece were that the terrorists are…
