    unfortunate because even if one couldn't get into a high paying job, one could try getting into an interesting one. Since they're the same, it's both or nothing. Thus it's fortunat…

    Finally! In HN I have finally truly found the loving, caring crowd that really cares about ethics in game journalism above everything else! Keep up the good work folks!

    There's this AMAZING scifi story, which I read in 'Writers of The Future' (great series, named after the eminent L Ron. H.). It imagines a future where after a certain age, everyon…
