Yes, not just creativity but actual humour and experimentation! Not to mention taste.

Wow I remember when this came out. Finding the different clues on the ground was pretty amazing back then. I played that PC Gamer demo over and over and over.

I think as an American, "food" should be in quotation marks

Mark Carney as leader could do the trick, but I don't know if he has the charisma to pull it off.

Brutal for attention spans and satiety

I'm saying the reason there isn't any pushback is because the whole system is working as "winner-take-all," hence pushing back on ANYTHING that Donald Trump does, when there is no …

Wilco is almost totally based off of pub and roots rock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAunCCRtPjM

It's a mess, but it feels alien, which is what you want with sci-fi and especially Dune.

Lynch hated Dune because DeLaurentis meddled with it so hard (Jodorowsky famously said they only way Lynch could have made a movie so bad, is if the producers ruined it).

This is pretty hand-wavy. I was diagnosed with a rare disorder. My doctors said surgery was the only option and that it would be fine after. As it turns out, there's a radiation th…

The US is a paragon of (domestic) democracy and (domestic) human rights next to China, and I say that as a HARSH critic of the West.

There'a a whole generation of Canadians who won't send a single dollar anywhere near the US thanks to Trump. I don't think we'll ever forget this.

The whole issue with the idea that "Trump is destroying democracy," isn't that what Trump is doing is NOT damaging to democracy, or corrupt, or what have you. It is. But Trump will…

Its been a success in Canada when tried https://www.cba.org/Publications-Resources/Practice-Tools/Ta...

It's the traditional spelling. You'll see it in the British Isles, and on some old buildings here in Canada.

Frank the Tank!

Ive been really struggling to make sense of what is true or not. There are so many therapists who treat The Body keeps the Score and stuff like Polyvagal theory as pure science or …

Not what I said.

Can your phone or your car remove you from real life? Are you required, by definition, to use a car or a phone to talk to people, in real life?

Good point!

You know what they say about assumptions! I have no cell phone and dont own a car. I dont need either and truly feel pity for those who do, realistically or otherwise, feel they ne…

I would suggest the opposite (inverse?): anything is acceptable to Nick Fuentes as long as it increases his chances of getting laid.

Thankfully Hacker News isn't interested in hijacking my brain or addicting me or making money off of me. Yet it still does hijack my brain; oddly enough the only real way to steer …

That's a totally false dichotomy and indicative of the attitude I'm talking about. You can have a social circle that isn't subject to surveillance (let alone control) by the corpor…

No it has not! It is very scary. I have family members that grew up not caring anything about technology, never owning a computer, being indifferent and criticizing the younger gen…
