    Justice for Zimmerman

    Good thing it doesn't matter what you or your wife thinks. Just like it didn't matter what Zimmerman thought either. What matters is what society thinks a reasonable person would think in that situation. Which is why ajuryof people will decide if the actions were reasonable, and not just take X...

    The End of OPEC? Massive Oil Find in Australia.

    Well, historically, OPEC has openly price fixed total production to make it profitable for all of it's members. Some members have bigger bills for oil production than others. But because there was such a huge "gap" between the price of oil, and the price (And demand for*) of the "next best"...

    The End of OPEC? Massive Oil Find in Australia.

    Yep. Peak oil is essentially when oil production can not match demand from a set of defined sources (I'm not hip to oil production terminology but essentially sources that cost under a certain amount to get.) Lots of forces/people have attempted to confuse this, mostly speculators looking to...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    haha, just the comments section. Nothing official. My one comment made front page under a stupid black voices article, now they won't accept my comments under those opinion pieces anymore. I didn't say anything racial, or even opinion based. I just linked Jeantel's testimony and showed how it...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Yep. I've made numerous posts on news sites linking Jeantel's testimony and showing how because of the calls being dropped and started, we know Zimmerman was not following Martin after the dispatcher told him not to. Beyond ANY doubt. This is one of the sure facts in the case because two...

    Sure, once I have time to tinker more, I'll probably start a thread. Right now, learning it is akin to learning something like photoshop (Not as complex though)...Essentially the tools are very easy to use once you understand them, but there are just so many, that it's a lot to take in. But...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    The strict definition of Hispanic is for people from hispania. In the U.S., Hispanic and Latino are used interchangeably. Nearly all "hispanics" here are a mix of some kind of Native American and Spanish. (Except for cubans, and some other islanders, which are black/Spanish). In Spain, many...

    As Suin said, it's just about impossible to play with a mouse and keyboard--so, so bad. Hook up a controller and it's an insight into great game design, because the encounters are hard, without being cheesy. It really mixes up "thinking"/strategy and action in a masterful way. Edit: I picked...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    I would say avastmajority of people don't die. In fact, depending on the severity of the fight, it's probably not even reported. But then again, very few fights, in my experience (Anecdotal) that happen in public places, continue when the person is on the ground. Usually people step in, and pull...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    First of...Can you prove he had intent to rape? Through character examination? Like has he raped before? Because we know Zimmerman opened a business with an African American, tutored black kids, did not identify martin as black until asked ect--there was no history of racial hatred during the...

    Around 800 (According to the FBI and Statistical abstract.) That's JUST personal impliments, fists, feet or biting--no slamming heads down on concrete ect. Fun fact: Fists kill TWICE as many people as assault rifles!

    Justice for Zimmerman

    NBC edited the 911 call to make it appear as though Zimmermen was racist, by describing Martin race first. When in fact, the original 911 call, Zimmerman did not mention race until specifically asked for it by the operator.

    Watch West Wing, at least until s4 for sure. Not sure if I'll watch this, though--the last 4 episodes were really fucking painful, like bad, bad rom-com shit.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    This sentiment is surprisingly prevalent. I always ask the people who say it how they can be so racist by saying it..and they look at me like I have three heads. But seriously, people are treating black people as if they are animals "He can't help attacking! It's was Zimmerman's fault for...

    Yeah, I agree. Realism would be dumb--it's like I mentioned earlier. Realistically, armies of drones with anti-tank weapons, using swarm tactics would probably be more effective...but who the hell would want to see that? The only thing I ever look for in a movie is some kind of internal logic...

    Civilization V: Brave New World

    Well, to be fair, I think that's why they added "Xcom" units and a couple others, to counter giant robots. But I get what you're saying. On that note, most of the reviewers are saying this expansion makes the end game a lot better. I agree with the IGN (Or whatever) review that in Gods and...

    No one cares about Realism. Do you think The Dark Knight was, at all, realistic? How about the Avengers when Black Widow grabbed the hovercraft zipping along at 100 MPH and her arms didn't just rip off? Nope. Not one fuck was given. People only care about internal consistency. Which is why those...

    lol, new unit, xcom squad. 110 Strength too, damn. A lot of this expansion looks good...except the culture stuff. I hate diplomatic/cultural "pressure". You either kick their ass and they attack you, or you lose and your cities riot...Honestly not sure if I want to upgrade because of it..I...

    Make a sign that says "Less stupid people=less senseless deaths....P.S. No offense to anyone else here." Seriously though, probably better for the gun control thread...But if you're asking what you should do? Nothing. People will be stupid whenever the opportunity arises. The correct course...

    I really like the notion of physically moving "commerce" through the world for rewards. In the "real" world, the need to physically move goods from one location to another is pretty much the center of all human conflict, with the exception of conflict created by ideological differences or the...

    Pacific Rim

    Because like Prometheus, I'm fine with a movie not making sense by our world. Feed the audience some shit about punches being awesome? Fine. It doesn't make sense, but in the movie world it's consistent. Whatever. But feeding the audience that shit, and then showing actions where highly trained...

    Citation. (Just gravity on the arc downward, given equal thrust, should add a ridiculous amount of power to the mass in question, if my high school physics on the anatomy of a hammer swing.) Also, the only reason this is brought up is not because we saw him rocket punching. It's because we've...

    Maybe it's just that they lost the weapon, and had to improvise and what not...But it's going to bug the shit out of me every time I see them using their fists, or using make shift weapons (Like storage cars)...If they've got the technology to build the robot, I'm sure they could build a large...

    Second clip was kind of bad. Exposition masked as dialogue needs decent actors to pull off, and yeah...they didn't do it well. Edit: And after watching the shipping crates being picked up....I'm still wondering why these things don't carry melee weapons...Like if that elbow rocket had a...

    EQ Never

    In a "sandbox" game, I think a Bazaar system would be bad--only because commerce is one of the few reasons people tend to "go" anywhere (Look at what the internet has been doing to businesses.) If you want to create social hubs, without is being artificial, create a need for people to shop and...
