Does it really even need that many planets? I'd rather have 15 interesting planets than a 100 random locales.

MOTHERFUCKER. Now I might actually have to buy BF4 Hardline.

Acer made the first good 3D Vision monitor. Their gaming monitors have never been bad.

It just occurred to me that there's a member of this board named Rhinohelix. Maybe an MTG dev was inspired by that name. I can't think of another good reason why WOTC would print a 4/5 trampling rhino that lightning helixes you.

If that thing is really 650 I would buy it. I was expecting 800+

Oscar betting pro-tip. If there's a movie about explicitly or implicitly about hollywood/show business up for best picture, always pick that one. Birdman, Shakespeare in Love, Argo...

Asteroid mining is already technically possible.

There's no way to get lifetime insurance anymore right? I didn't back originally. This game looks like it's starting to shape up and I think it's time to at least buy a starter package. Unfortunately all my cards are cancelled at the moment. (Thanks, HomeDepotBama.)

It's not the future. It's the antediluvian civilization.

If I buy the Mustang Alpha starter package now will I be able to upgrade it to a Mustang Delta when it comes out?

The real thing that bothers me in all of this is really the hundreds of independent intelligence 'contractor' companies that just bilk the government for billions and don't really do anything.

Considering these assholes couldn't even stop the Tsarnaev brothers, one of whom was back and forth from Russia many times, had tons of phonecalls with Russia, and generally wasn't quiet at all, and was already on a watchlist, I think this whole blanket surveillance does more harm than good...

Yeah but, is it still being made?

I dunno what the other people at the table were drafting but lol at this deck. Easiest 3-0 ever.

Teenage boys are way worse at keeping secrets than teenage girls?

I never said white girl privilege is better or worse than white dude privilege. Just different.

Yeah but we're all approximately the same privilege level here, so we can talk about #justshitlordthings like that.

Are they still making the successor?

The dialogue in this movie makes Twilight look like Gone With the Wind.

Most crimes happen to poor people in poor neighborhoods. Of the subset of crimes that middle class+ white girls actually have to worry about happening to them, rape is pretty up there.

Cognitive biases are very real things.

The Sixteenth Chapel.

Scheme made me fucking quit programming. Mostly because the professors couldn't teach it worth a shit.

Are people arguing with tad in a science thread?

I didn't say rape apologist. I said irrational cognitive bias. I also think you don't appreciate the difference between an argument and a discussion. An argument requires a stated position. A discussion doesn't really require you taking a position, you can just explore the entire...

But I never said that. I just wanted people to step outside their current perspective and see how we're not doing right by real, under-reported rape victims because we're afraid of these over-reported fake rape accusations. If I was better at arguing I'd maybe have made a more effective case...

Yeah but I'm the only one that has a specific term for it!

A one degree rise in global average temperature per decade does not suddenly mean it won't be cold ever again. Stupid people are stupid.

There's a fucking term for it for a reason. I just don't get why when other people want to talk about pointless bullshit for pages and pages, no one gives a shit, but when I do it, it's like, a thing where I actively get called out for it.

And I hate you.

So that's why I keep seeing direwolves this far south of the wall. Canada really is America's Night's Watch.

It does something. It most likely makes all of our data less safe, because I'm sure those keys leak out.

It's just not a big deal in real use cases unless you plan on SLIing 2 to use for a 4k display.

I doubt it's that far. Once we start pouring lots of our best minds and our best mechanical minds into the frontiers of neuroscience, I think our knowledge of the subject will explode. Neuroscience and psych are exciting because they're still really young sciences.

I'm holding up pretty fucking well considering the bullshit I've had to deal with in the past 5 years. Fixing up a house that's been hit by 4 major natural disasters (after my stepdad took off with the FEMA and SBA loan money) while taking care of my mom and going to graduate school and being...

It's under your game history in options now.

Look, I'm not saying any of us have a lot of ground to stand on.

I said psychology vs IT, not psychology vs science, because psychology IS a science (at least at the postgrad level, I'll admit undergrad psych is fucking LOL, I mean god, they letmeteach those classes.) IT and programming are pretty horrible occupations for most of the people working in...

I'm just saying, a bunch of cubicle dwelling people who played EQ for a thousands of hours over a decade telling me they know more about human nature is absurd.

My eyes started watering from the sunglare when I was shoveling, and they literally froze to my fucking face.
