Buying prerelease is always a big gamble. Buying before there are reviews from trusted sources is also a bit of a gamble.

Buying games 7 or 8 years after release is generally a pretty safe bet.

Some of the monitors are going smart. I won't be buying those.

The deck is pretty awesome. I think my big upgrade for it will be some AR glasses like the XReal Air. The idea of a big screen to play on pretty much anywhere really appeals.

I just have to see if I can wait for the next Valve VR offering.

Mark that shit as NSFW, please. That's worse than Burns' portrait.

It's been a long time since I laughed about OJ Simpson...

Now you're going to blame people for when a new lion takes over a pride and kills all the kittens.

I love that shitty waffle-talk.

The official stressed that police have to believe there are reasons to suspect that the information in question will assist in a criminal investigation

Cool, so get a warrant, it should be a snap.

There are a lot of things wrong with prison, starting with throwing people who don't behave into a cage and treating them like animals and ending with taking people who clearly weren't socialized properly and doing nothing to socialize them. And frankly, learning how to deal with the opposite sex appropriately is a key part of socialization. If prisoner rehabilitation was taken seriously, at least partially desegregated prisons would make a lot of sense.

If only I had a way to support myself for the next 60 years while I did this, and still be young enough to enjoy it when I'm done.

Maybe the timeframe matters.

But the idea behind doing things with the risk of them going boom is to learn things. I'm not sure they're learning what they need if they're going from testing Starship in launches to going back to static firing. If the idea is to rework the engines for Starship, I have to wonder if that's a fundamental enough step to put the entire project back to pretty much square one.

There is an intellectual burden to behaving against your nature/wishes. It's reasonable to expect them to not want to do that. We just need to show them the cost is more than just external, which certainly isn't happening at an institutional level in the States right now. You'd think reminding someone who's voting to kick out illegal immigrants that that group included members of their own family wouldn't be harder than Homer remembering that Lisa needs braces, though.

That's not very fair. It's fairly safe to assume that each of those babies were linked to lifetimes of emotional scars, too, just not for the babies.
