They should just buy ad spots explaining Roko’s Basilisk in detail when they IPO. “Unfortunately this is out of our hands, now, but you can still make your support known by buying shares now.”

You sound like you’re an authority on sexy ferrets, dream_weasel! :)

Setup, but the fact that it’s believable until the punchline and can be worked into casual conversation is, in my opinion, what makes it a good joke. :P

This reminds me of a news story I read a while back about a museum that was going to hold a temporary display of a number of Salvador Dali’s works of art. The works were on display for about 3 weeks but then it was discovered that every single one was a forgery. Obviously embarrassing for the museum. Apparently nobody inspects the Spanish exposition.

They’d better hoof it to Woolworth’s to get a new baaathing suit!

I don’t think this is limited to over-50s…

It’s timestamped, skip to what you care about?

Edit: Here, I’ll save you even that amount of effort. Battery Life Benchmarks (4 minutes, 30 seconds)

Gamers Nexus has a pretty comprehensive review that covers both streaming and standalone play. Battery life is not particularly favorable but overall the sentiment is positive.

Obviously. Your statement was that StarCraft had never had any original ideas in the IP; I was just pointing out that the idea of a StarCraft IP shooter pre-dates Destiny (and FarCry). I’m not sure why we’re still discussing this.

Doesn’t matter, you said original ideas, not completed games.

To be completely fair, Starcraft: Ghost was originally teased in 2002. Obviously a different game, but they did sow the seeds for a starcraft IP shooter long before Destiny.

That bird is strangely satisfied by the whole thing. Definitely smiling. I know where I’d start looking for the perpetrator.

The Committee feels it is quite likely that cannabis makes users more cautious

This isn’t a scientific finding, this is speculation based on preliminary evidence.

It is essential to conduct studies in order to develop a rapid testing tool and learn more about the driving habits of cannabis users.

That’s what the study posted here is doing.

I feel like you’re taking a super defensive stance here, like you feel that this study is attacking you in some way, and I’m curious why that is.

On the other hand, the number of times I’ve seen “Being high isn’t the same as being drunk, it’s okay to drive” has been FAR more than the number of times I’ve seen people trying to defend drunk drivers. It’s a useful study.

It isn’t trying to argue that edibles should be illegal, it’s just research on a little-understood aspect.

Importance Use of cannabis edibles is increasing, yet little is known about the impact of edibles on driving, which is particularly important in the context of per se thresholds (commonly 2 or 5 ng/mL) used to enforce cannabis-impaired driving laws.

Woah! Sanitarium was cool, did not expect to be seeing this, what, 25-28 years later…

What am I missing? They were Nigerians abducted in Nigeria… How is this related to the US?

What would you expect such a genre to be categorized by? How would it be different from, say, modern times?

Not to mention in this particular case, just posting the text without the image would have both been more inclusive for visually impaired users AND a better experience for everyone else.

Obviously the father was in the wrong here, but this was also potentially a terrible situation for him.

He then told him to wait for him before continuing his five-hour ascent to the summit with the child’s older brother, who had already gone on ahead.

The article doesn’t go into detail, but if the “older brother” wasn’t much older, and the father didn’t have a way to contact him, he was abandoning one child no matter which way he went. Really irresponsible to let the older brother continue on in this situation.

…what? As an American, I care. I hope Canada comes out on top of this exchange and every exchange they’re unfortunate enough to be forced to have with us right now. I hope our economy gets fucked (just like it did previously).

I applaud Canada and every country that stands up to Trump. If the whole world just collectively cut us out of global politics and the economy, I’d applaud even louder. We deserve it.
