Never heard of him, but what a dumb stunt. Ooh, so artistic. Edgy. Anti-establishment. Ooh.

That isn't how Polygon works. They and their writers absolutely despise their readers and gamers, in general.

Sorry, but $50k/day compensates completely for any potential resentment. Especially coming from the real world, where stalkers and people showing up at your door and getting hold o…

I have toiled for projects for many years which raked in far less than that annually. I have seen people toil for many years for absolutely no return. In both instances, subjected …

I had a debate with someone over the existence of Santa Clause, but it was difficult, because the toddler was munching on crayons at the time.

Slashdot stopped working well before Malda left. More ads, desiring to become an Engadget style site filled with videos (almost all seeming like paid segments by the interviewee), …

Another skeezy blog promotion about ephemeral feel-good motivational concepts with nothing real to contribute that ends with "NOW SIGN UP FOR MY NEWSLETTER AND SUPPORT MY ONLINE BU…

My aunt did this, too. Not a stupid person, either. A doctor. She believed that the indian on the phone was from Microsoft and somehow detected that her computer (and every other c…

Twenty-one years after the first allegations that Woody Allen abused his adopted daughter, that incident is back in the news thanks to the director’s ex-partner, Mia Farrow, and es…

All you need to know about those performing the TSA roles can be learned from one trip through a security line, where some fat obnoxious woman screams at paying customers and ameri…

She's one. Buy her some Tinker Toys and finger paints. Read every night to her, until she starts picking up books and reading on her own (it happened for me by about the age of thr…

Most things are dirt cheap to run. People just choose not to do so. There have been countless services and websites over the last decade that somehow get or require massive infusio…

I have a very obese male friend who discussed his situation on the internet and had a flood of hateful messages (and mild real life stalking) to the point that he almost had a nerv…

Isn't the whole benefit of the internet that you don't know anything about the other people and can thereby consider them on the merits of their words and actions? I'm not pre-judg…

Gender discussions seem to arise on here (and almost every other geek/tech/whatever related group) between about one and three times per day. I'm pretty sure we have shared very si…

If anything, I would find myself more concerned about all the overly sensitive fellow males swarming me for something they perceive to take offense to on behalf of someone or a gro…

I suspect that far more of us would take: 5) I don't really care what your gender is (unless it is particularly germane to the topic of discussion) and I don't take it into account…

I'm in my late 30s in the US. I get the maximum vacation time our company allows (after about eight years, you get something like 21 days per year). I currently have the maximum ba…

When I was young, I was a dedicated athlete. To the point that I missed weeks of school every year to travel and compete in the championships. I would spend all of my down-time (in…

Why, so they can give him his own radio talk show?

An extra $100k in annual income could make the difference from maybe never retiring and having enough additional income to invest in a quality retirement where you and your family …

If we keep the guy making $30k outraged at his neighbor earning $150k and we keep the guy making $150k angry at the hippy kids and then we wrap it all up in My-Team vs Your-Team tw…

I spent almost all of my waking time, every day, on the computer. The way I avoid wasting hours on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, HN, etc is that I don't use the first two, I don't ra…

Not likely. The irresponsible will always reproduce like rabbits by the drinking age.
