Ah true, I forgot about the console.

I don’t think they give a shit about people emulating their old classic games, they have modern games.

Dude wtf are you talking about, it’s not that I can’t imagine a world without cars, its that the amount of shit that would need to be done to remove cars from modern life would be a massive, slow, expensive project. You’d need to completely redesign cities and pour incalculable amounts of money into the project, while huge swathes of the population protest rabidly against the changes.
Like, sure you can plan changes to cities to reduce the reliance on cars, but its a long, slow process that takes a huge amount of time and political will to enact. Just saying “ban cars” is an incredibly simple minded, knee jerk reaction to the issue.
- Comment on Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee 3 weeks ago:
That’s a ridiculous comparison, that video is about a single neighbourhood. You’d need to completely redesign and rebuild any modern city to function completely without cars.
- Comment on Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee 3 weeks ago:
Alcohol kills more people than cars every year.
Banning cars would radically alter every person’s lifestyle and require massive replanning of cities. It’s a ridiculous proposal.
- Comment on Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee 3 weeks ago:
Is your reading comprehension really this bad? I’m laughing at your incredibly simple minded call to ban cars.
- Comment on Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee 3 weeks ago:
You can certainly reduce the presence of cars in certain areas and improve the design of cities to this end. But just saying “ban cars” is idiotic.
- Comment on Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee 3 weeks ago:
We need to ban them.
lol

- Comment on If evolution is real, then why isn’t it happening now? An anthropologist explains that humans actually are still evolving 5 months ago:
I’m not saying that genetic changes aren’t happening at all, just that the article doesn’t address that modern society creates a very different environment for natural selection, compared to humans in subsistence level environments in the wild.
- Comment on If evolution is real, then why isn’t it happening now? An anthropologist explains that humans actually are still evolving 5 months ago:
This article doesn’t address the point that modern society enables most individuals to live long enough to have children regardless of their genetic advantages or disadvantages. Sure people with light skin are not well suited to living in very hot climates, but in the modern world that isn’t going to make them less likely to procreate than people with dark skin in that environment.

Hilarious that this is true and yet the US is still somehow fatter.

Yeah the bleakness of From’s settings is definitely an inherent part of their worldbuilding.

Elden Ring has the deepest, most complex worldbuilding of any game ever made, and it’s not even close. For anyone interested in worldbuilding I strongly urge you to watch some Elden Ring lore videos from The Tarnished Archaeologist to learn about the incredible techniques that the Elden Ring devs use to put incredibly deep and subtle worldbuilding into their games:

As a young nerd obsessed with RPGs and William Gibson’s work I was outraged at the idea of putting Fantasy into cyberpunk. But then I picked up a damaged copy of the Shadowrun rules from a bargain bin and was blown away by the worldbuilding, they really found a way to make it all fit thematically and logically and I ended up running the game for years.

Ah, the classic Reverse Leto.
- Comment on I'm just not looking forward to this NBA season 6 months ago:
If nothing else, Mitchell is way more fun to watch than SGA. And I love Mobley’s game.
Dallas should be great when they’re healthy, but Kyrie is out all season and I assume AD will spend half the season in civvies, as usual.
- Comment on I'm just not looking forward to this NBA season 6 months ago:
What don’t you like about the Cavs? They’re one of the most dynamic teams in the league, imo.
And the Spurs should be fun as hell this season.
- Comment on Anon has a problem with Bioshock 8 months ago:
but the system was still rigged from the start
And this, intentionally or not, is the real message. There’s no such thing as a real meritocracy, the system is always rigged in favor of the people who created it.
- Comment on Anon has a problem with Bioshock 8 months ago:
but the common thread seems to be that absolute power corrupts absolutely
This is not at all the intended message of Atlas Shrugs.

“Lamers”?!? What are you, like 90 years old?

There’s early access that lets you in on Thursday instead of Saturday. To get the early access you need to sign up to some EA bullshit or do what this article is saying.

Kobe’s nickname (self assigned) was the Black Mamba. Mamba Mentality was the book he wrote about his mindset. MJ was famously competitive but Kobe kind of took it to another level that bordered on sociopathic.
- Comment on Anon shoots for two 9 months ago:
Hence trhe rape.
- Comment on Anon shoots for two 9 months ago:
He’s known for the “Mamba mentality”, his belief in himself, insane work ethic, and psychopathic drive to win.

Did you really not know?
