Overuse of the banhammer is not limited to left-y subs and the dreaded "SJWs". Happens frequently on all sides. /r/the_donald will frequently ban for comments made in other subs, a…

A lot. If you convince the right people, then there's loans with easy terms. Funding for your companies. Entrance into some very useful networks. The list could go on and on. Prete…

Pocket Tactics [ http://www.pockettactics.com ] is mostly what you want. This site should be stickied every time HN talks about mobile games. Most of what they cover is buy-once. I…

There's part of the Right which is against free speech too. Has been for decades. All those campaigns against "immoral" literature, movies, music, television. The "Watch what you s…

Sorry if I implied the powerbook was being used in 1989. Didn't get that until my senior year. My brief reminiscence was more of a broad sweep of those years in that town. In 1989 …

I'd agree with you for the most part. But podcasts have a huge advantage in many ways over listening to radio. What would be nice would be a system where NPR bundles stories, and f…

I've formed a minor obsession with the cab ride videos on Youtube. Riding along London or Dubai transit, or the driver's eye view from a Rotterdam tram, is insanely relaxing. Medit…

If you've played WoW, or an MMO like it, just think of it this way. All the experiences are mostly the same no matter how many times you do it. With slight variances based on your …

No questions. Just wanted to say I'm glad you made this. A few years ago, I was playing Roller Coaster Tycoon and World of Warcraft a little too often. Had the idea to merge the tw…
