- Comment on First look at ‘The Trial’, a limited series that takes place in a near-future setting where parents can be held legally responsible for the crimes of their children. 1 day ago:
That’s one way to kill the desire for children.

Bet this backfires on them.

Sorry, he meant tithe.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 4 days ago:
Turok 1? Cause IIRC there’s only a couple areas where I feel you can get stuck unless you really think about things. For the most part you just explore all parts of the map until you find the right place to go.
The one that first comes to mind is the level where you’ve got to find a bunch of switches to raises “stairs” over a pit of lava. Again, IIRC. The other one is a place where you’ve got to know that falling off the cliff won’t kill you. But IIRC you can see the tree tops in that area which you wouldn’t see in an area where falling will kill you.

If you can’t figure out Super Mario Bros then gaming just isn’t for you.

The power isn’t infinite, but it’s enough.
- Comment on Yuri Horii didn't confirm Chrono Trigger remake, it was a mistranslation 4 days ago:
Don’t need a remake anyway. It’s prefect as-is.

Why not make a slab then cut cubes out of it?

😮💨
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 1 week ago:
I’d be dead since the Earth wasn’t in the same position 650 years ago. Even taking that out of the equation, I’d die since I can’t communicate with anyone and don’t have the survival skills.
- Comment on Trump Labor Dept Threatens States Giving Unemployment Benefits To Illegals 1 week ago:
They can certainly pay income tax. That’s the purpose of the TIN, for those who don’t have a SSN. I do not know all of which taxes are paid which is why I said what I said before. Generally speaking, if you use SS but haven’t paid into it, you’re committing fraud. Immigration status doesn’t directly come into play.
- Comment on Trump Labor Dept Threatens States Giving Unemployment Benefits To Illegals 1 week ago:
I’m not sure I agree with you. Simply because I’m not sure if you agree with the article. I do not agree with the article. Illegals can pay taxes. Trump is saying they don’t deserve the benefits the taxes pay for, hence checking their database. Which I 100% believe is going to have bad data in it since they’ve already proven that with who they’ve rounded up so far.
All this js really going to do is make less of them pay taxes because they won’t get benefits. How is that helpful? Now they’ll be using other things taxes pay for but won’t be contributing.
- Comment on Trump Labor Dept Threatens States Giving Unemployment Benefits To Illegals 1 week ago:
If they pay taxes, they get benefits. Simple as that.

That’s so 90s.
- Comment on The Big Bang Theory is getting a new spin-off, and its title reveals the main character’s identity 2 weeks ago:
Why him? His character is terrible. I can’t imagine him being the center of a series.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
That doesn’t mean there was an order to deport him though. The whole point of preventing him from being deported back to El Salvador is so they could figure out if his claims were true and what should be done with him. Instead of actually doing that, they just skipped to deporting him.
If this was only about him being deported back to a country he wasn’t supposed to be deported to, there wouldn’t be near as much an uproar. But it’s not.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Uhh, no he wasn’t. Unless we’re talking about different people. Kilmar Garcia was actually under a “withholding of removal” order to prevent him from being sent back to El Salvador because he was supposedly running from gangs. He has never been convicted of any crime in the US, though it does seem like there’s some domestic violence incidents. Hardly gang or immigration related based on how often demostic violence happens in the US.
Hell, even the US government says he wasn’t supposed to be deported. How can you sit here and say otherwise?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
So, your position is that he was so obviously MS13 that we can just skip due process? Even if I took that at face value, which I don’t, it would have been trivial to prove in court and have him legally deported. This isn’t the strong position that you think it is.

- Comment on What's the worst instance of plot armour on characters you've seen in TV? 3 weeks ago:
It’s a very different take on superheroes. But yea, a bit too much plot armor considering how many people Homelander kills on a whim. And those aren’t even people plotting his downfall.

- Comment on James Cameron Says Blockbuster Movies Can Only Survive If We ‘Cut the Cost in Half’; He’s Exploring How AI Can Help Without ‘Laying Off the Staff’ 4 weeks ago:
I will be shocked if what we currently have can help in any meaningful way.
Feel like it would be more useful for B movies because all the thing AI doesn’t get quite right won’t be as big a deal. No one wants to go see the next Avenger and see a poster in the background with gibberish in it. Or Thor having an extra thumb for a few frames.
- Comment on GOP rep says Russia and China are ‘laughing at us’ after NSA director firing 4 weeks ago:
US citizens are laughing at you too. Our security became a joke almost overnight.

This is insulting to clowns. They are at least supposed to provide entertainment, unlike this leather bag.
- Comment on I miss a show like Person of Interest 5 weeks ago:
I have to say, it’s pretty funny to see a comment asking what happened to a person on a TV show then seeing a reply that says "Deleted by creator, " even if I know it meant the comment was deleted.
