Yeah, best part about that scene is they actually call it transparent aluminum. (Seriously though, watch Star Trek 2 and 4 and 6 at least, they are all really good even if you only really liked Next Gen. I'd watch 3 too, just to get the whole story, but 2/4/6 are just very good films. Four is...

I think you might be misunderstanding what an audit like this entails. We're not talking about some accountant peeking through your books; we are talking about a super state institution with legal authority to view information, remove individuals from office and prosecute crimes. Audits in the...

There's a lot you can't fix--but there is a lot you can, too. Some of Greece's corruption is just lazy, an outside audit could easily wipe it out. I mean some of it is really just extreme, we aren't talking the national pride in avoiding taxation ect. We are talking whole agencies that don't...

Yeah, and that is the salient issue. If the Eurozone were to work? The bail outs Greece has gottenshouldn'thave been loans; they should have been supplements much like we send money to West Virginia, or some other backwater hell hole with a resource economy. Because without the option to devalue...

Cognitive dissonance requires I hold two opposing views Tan. My statement that someone who believes something, without verifying it or even studying it beyond what a cursory source, like a blog or random website tells them, is an idiot? Is not contradictory with any of my other beliefs. In fact...

Look in the mirror. In this case I was specifically talking about you and delicateflower, and any other idiot that reads a blog and would believe something totally outrageous. For example, like the Moon Landing was faked because of radiation belts.

The head warboy screams out what they were hauling at the beginning. "Aqua Cola" (Water), Mother's Milk and Produce. So they did have water on them, in addition to milk. As for the movie, was great. I really enjoyed the background plot and subtle story telling; it's how an action movie should...

I will say, the Avengers references are funny. "Our first move is, we should call the Avengers"--IE the exact thing everybody wonders when they see a stand alone Marvel movie. Taking a jab at the "cute" technology of Stark was also funny. In any case, as long as they balance the comedy with...

Some of the corruption is pretty wild, just stuff I've read over the last few months. There was actually an entire Greek health department that literally did not exist, just money directly into a few people's back accounts. The place is so corrupt, even now, it's 1000 times better than it was in...

Oh and...makes sense. Victoria and Redditgifts admin were two of the last "community" admins who had started from the community. This jives with the rumors that she's been bringing in mostly marketing personnel to change the community and make it more investment friendly. (Which again, is...

The whole trial was hilarious. Most of her points were beyond absurd; like for example she called it sexual misconduct when a partner rubbed her back to calm her down aftershe was hit by a car. In addition, she got all negative performance reviews, and was struggling in the company--however, the...

Yeah, once you're on top for long enough it seems it really goes to your head./Kn0thing'scomments are like watching that realization in real time, it's actually amazing. He goes from his popcorn comment and laughing at people to now profusely apologizing, and vowing to improve communication...

It seems to be an internal dispute. One of the mods of /rpics is an admins Alt account. He supposedly got the order from Pao to force the sub back open. (Supposedly--again, this could all be bullshit, many major subs are having these internal disputes due to conflicts like this.) Pao and...

Yeah, I doubt it's Jackson, Jackson might have been an example of why investors would not be comfortable with this form of AMA any longer (IE more open.)...But the reality is, Reddit's AMA's have had the president and world leaders and scientists ect. It's been something amazingly strong for...

They are extremely effective trolls that were able to get the Admins themselves to be the ones to buy into the SJW shtick (Though, I'm not convinced it's a shtick--I think it's more like Harper's "new calling"), and the Admins let them have a lot of leeway they don't allow other forums. They use...

No, not like this. Right now all they are doing is losing content. If the Admins decide to come down and fuck with large Subs, they will have their front page filled with "protest posts", which will include everything as topics they don't want (Most people on Reddit only read the front page, and...

Oh, no I was annoyed at how dumb you were being before...but that last reply just illustrated you made a genuine mistake and were angry about being caught in it. So I'm quite pleased now. Carry on trying to troll

Don't be mad Tan, just learn...You owe it to the children. Less salt, more reading comprehension.

That is a lot of words for a simple statement "Sorry, once again, I was wrong". Because if you thought about it for five minutes, when I say "we", I mean society--specifically the people in charge of Campus safety. And that means NO ONE on this board. In addition, I specifically mention...

Jesus you moron, I'm talking about Campuses. Every fucking article talking about this discusses victim blaming. http://www.latimes.com/science/sciencenow/la-sci-sn-campus-sexual-assault-prevention-program-20150609-story.html By focusing on a potential victim's power to thwart her...

"Sources say" Netflix.Good, another blow for TV bound production...The internet can't take over the entertainment industry fast enough.

btw, here it thelegal documentfor the guy who was raped...and then told he turned it around and became the raper because the girl withdrew consent for her rape. (lol) Some snippets in here are amazing. The investigator's report offered no conclusion as to whether John Doe had forced Sandra...

btw, it's not just his word. The investigator the college hired, and through testimony from the victim AND him, admitted he was blacked out drunk. *********The investigator's report offered no conclusion as to whether John Doe had forced Sandra Jones to engage in oral sex. The investigator...

15 minutes with crafting and settlement building. Edit: Damn you Bond, stealing my thunder!

Mel is back at the wall. I think the actor is just trolling, but who knows.

Poor Mannis.I guess we know Ramsay wasn't bullshitting in the books. Really felt bad for Davos too. I did think the Brienne scene was kind of, just dumb..felt really obtuse in a show that's so careful to fuck with revenge plots. That was super cliche hero riding up in shiny armor "justice"...

Yeah, the hilarity here is this is the guy that spent nearly 2 weeks arguing about absurdly low levels of intoxication made it sexual assault. But a guy black out drunk? Well; we don't really know if he was conscious and could consent! hah, at this point it honestly wouldn't shock me if this...

You sound mad Tan. What happened little buddy? Did one of your students school you on the moon landing this week or something?

These are the statements I make when I'm so giddy I've succumbed to bias. ****I'm still having a hard time believing it's true--it's just too ridiculous.**** ****hahaha, this has to be bullshit right? This can't be real life**** Thanks for confirming how skeptical I am Tan, actually...

Because the Title 9 trial literally said there was evidence he was unconscious? If you're going to troll, at least read dip shit. She told her friend they had sex, and she told others he was passed out--hence I reached the same conclusion as the Title 9 inquiry in that regard. Also, I'm...

This was posted a few days ago, but now it's shown up in afew papers but I'm still having a hard time believing it's true--it's just too ridiculous. Man was passed out drunk, girlfriends roomate blew him while he was drunk--sent a text literally stating she molested the guy while he was...

Wow, I had to go look this up--I didn't believe it all. She's adorable in the "cute cheeks" kind of way. I never assumed she was older than 12-13, she's got such a cherub like face that finding out she's 16 is pretty mind blowing. No wonder she didn't have the normal stilted child acting problems.

The game, it unlocks special prices for the day as achievements are unlocked. (But they aren't supposed to unlock until 10am, so I don't know.)

Well, in the books it was expected Selyse and Mel would burn Shireen behind Stannis's back. That's why Stannis himself doing it shocked even book readers; it wasn't because Shireen was burned, everyone expected that, it was just that Stannis did it. That being said, Stannis is the kind of guy...

Well, I agree with the assessment of Hollywood, but I think people are going to be shocked in 20 years where "TV" will go. We are all going to see the lines blur a lot in the coming years as delivery systems become better and better, and there is less of a gate keeper in terms of who controls...

My wife loves the old Dracula movies--so she was his favorite actor from those. This sucks, 93 was a good run though; but still sad to see him go.

Yeah. I'm guessing he meant "Ancient"--which is a type of historical fiction I really, really enjoy but it's rarely done. Been pretty lucky though with Vikings and GoT (Though yes, this isn't historical--it's close enough to be fun :P). But nothing has come close to Rome...I'd kill for Rome to...

I once heard a Ted talk from an engineer/biologist which had this fascinating comparison with social evolution (Singularity) and biological evolution; he posited that it's all based on communication. The faster and more efficient the communication, the more specialized and efficient the basic...
