It was actually super easy
  • I actually agree, that could be pretty fun. That said this puts a lot of work / pressure on the DM so it is definitely something to be discussed rather than used to be lazy. (To be clear, I am not reading this into what you said. Just saying it out loud is all)

  • Star Trucker Launch Trailer
  • I have been looking forward to this game. I love the trucks in space aesthetic, silly as it is, and I love space games where you can leave the cockpit like that. I played a demo during Next Fest and it seemed a bit janky, but maybe they fixed it or maybe it was just me not gelling with it at the time.

  • Which anime do you enjoy with a mostly adult cast of characters?
  • Redline is unironically one of my favorite movies. It's just so silly, and I love it. "We're losing the race, what do we do!?" "What if we pressed the pedal down...harder" And then they go faster.

  • Science saves lives
  • This is funny, but I think stereotypical vampire lore still stands. I think it's only direct sunlight that is an issue. If a vampire stands in a room with an open window, but off to the side, they're generally considered fine. If light reflected off a wall is ok then why is the moon not?

  • We played Valve’s secret new shooter, Deadlock
  • I think just because in most other cases that's how this is presented. That's at least how the journalist here presented it "And I’m not under NDA. I have signed no contracts and made no verbal agreements; I haven’t even clicked through a EULA". What you're saying is why I agree with you here, that Valve was in the right to ban him.

  • We played Valve’s secret new shooter, Deadlock
  • I think Valve banning him in this case is reasonable. It's an invite only free to play game. That said, clicking ok on some random text box is not a binding contract. Companies like to frame it like it is, but it's not.

  • Shadows of Doubt - V1.0 Coming September 26th
  • I really really like this game, but is it ready for 1.0? Last I played a few months ago the simulation felt...lacking. The structure seems there, but things like NPCs walking around their apartments at all hours of the night make things difficult, as an example.

  • Microsoft points finger at the EU for not being able to lock down Windows
  • I actually agree, I own my computer / OS and I should be able to do what you're saying (install and break things). But Microsoft is a trillion dollar multi national corporation and I am certainly going to give them grief about this because I owe them less than nothing, let alone any good will.

  • No PS3 backwards compatibility
  • I don't think it being hard is really the issue. Sony is a billion dollar multi-national corporation and they don't get any benefit of the doubt whatsoever. Is it hard? Maybe it is, but maybe they should have thought of what they were going to do in the future when they were designing this. As was pointed out elsewhere, volunteers making an open source emulator are managing it so Sony not wanting to, or being unable to, isn't an excuse.

  • A million more U.S. workers can now get overtime pay: 'Most employers absolutely do want to get this right'
  • I'm sorry, but I think I disagree. I interpreted your point as "Employers care, you just have to hold them accountable". I don't think that is the attitude of companies who want to do things the right way. If workers have more rights than they know, and employers are aware of it, then I do not think that's an mistake, that's exploitation.

  • A million more U.S. workers can now get overtime pay: 'Most employers absolutely do want to get this right'
  • DO most employers want to get this right? Based on the fact that wage theft is the largest form of theft even with everything else combined, I think that's either a lie or a stupid thing to say.

    Also, I just don't understand under what circumstances anyone should be exempt from overtime. Is there some group of people who are less deserving of getting paid for their time that I am unaware of? Even (shudder) managers should probably get paid.
