    The Neo-Liberals ...

    How many people need to tell you this: supply and demand means that during high demand, the owner of a good will ask the largest payment that a customer can pay. Stop saying that we imply that the owners will ask for more than the costumer can pay. Do you have no fucking clue of how a test...

    The Neo-Liberals ...

    You're telling me that a left leaning government which is handed near totalitarian power to control the economy could never conceivably end up being communist? I totally agree the government spends a whole lot of money unwisely. We need smaller & more focused governments. But your other...

    Maybe NMA should start chatting on Steam

    I must admit I've never used Steam Group chat rooms, and quite often I don't even start Steam Friends. But OK, I'll take a look.

    The Neo-Liberals ...

    Did you actually bother reading what I said? It was an example of the type of people who use this rhetoric and "CAPITALISM" was there too? So why are you acting like I told you UBI was communism? I stated (in a previous post) that it could lead there, but not necessarily. Could you please stop...

    The Neo-Liberals ...

    You do realize that calling me out on "arguing from ignorance" reflects directly on yourself, right? It's basically on the level of "REAL communism/capitalism is the best, and you can't prove that it isn't because it was never really tried before!". So tell me this, do you deny that: UBI...

    The Neo-Liberals ...

    Let me first say that I do not intend to read through 6 pages of this discussion on a daily basis, so sorry if I missed anyone's comments or if these things were already touched upon. My comments apply to "any of them". In the end, they all end up in the same place as far as I can predict. I...

    The Neo-Liberals ...

    I think UBI is a pipe dream. It's a naive hope at best, or an insideous tool to implement socialism/communism at worst. UBI cannot work unless the government has total control of the means of production (be it through direct control or insane tax rates and regulation). Without this total control...

    Interview the person below you

    Answers: Each morning, very regular. None, soft drinks are shit. Water or beer (chimay, karmeliet, duvel,...), please. There is no meaning of life, the universe & everything. I strive for contentment, not overt happiness, wealth or fame. Questions: When was the last time you helped a...

    Mass Effect Andromada: What we know so far

    Why do game studios think that famous actors sell games when voice acting? You can get PROFESSIONAL voice actors for FAR LESS, allowing you to voice far more of your game with the same budget. Or just pay less for the same voice & use the rest of the budget elsewhere. Ugh, it's all shitty PR. :(

    are you okay with ugly characters?

    Realistically ugly is fine, but unrealisticly ugly (as in the Ass Effect trailers) is just annoying. Unless it's on purpose and artfully done, obviously.

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I am not familiar enough with modern stocks for the M14 to say anything about that. I suppose a JAE-100 or EBR might be less prone to bedding issues than the original wood and polymer stocks. A good stock will not keep your rifle from jamming when exposed to extreme conditions though. M14...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    If you bed your action on an M14 to increase its accuracy, you will likely have to re-bed if you knock it into a tree or drop it on the ground. As for reliability? Well, the M14 does not like mud. Though I'm not sure what effect fine sand has. The M14 is nowhere near as rugged as an AR15 or an...

    Disco Elysium OUT NOW (previously: No Truce With The Furies)

    That guarantees a lot of exposure, I guess. :)

    Here is Practical Explanation about Next Life, Purpose of Human Life, philosophical/religious facts,

    You're right, I got confused. It's been a long time since I read the books. Deep Thought required Organic SuperComputer Earth to calculate the Ultimate Question, because it was unable to calculate it on its own. But since the Golgafrinchan's fucked it up, the question itself was corrupted. And...

    Here is Practical Explanation about Next Life, Purpose of Human Life, philosophical/religious facts,

    The Golgafrinchan ship containing their entire useless population (phone sanitizers and such), crashed onto prehistoric Earth, and ruined the calculation by corrupting the "biological" calculation since the gene pool suddenly contained Golgafrinchan. Thus skewing the result.

    If you care about comfort, you don't get a HK53 or HK51 though. ;)

    Badass Quotes

    GK Chesterton: "Reason is always a kind of brute force; those who appeal to the head rather than the heart, however pallid and polite, are necessarily men of violence. We speak of touching a man's heart, but we can do nothing to his head but hit it."

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I've always been on the fence for them. I mean, for me they are the original SWAT carbine. But the recoil impulse is kinda weird and the lack of automatic BHO kinda irks me. Why not the collapsible stock though? Sidefolders don't do the HK53 look justice imo. Well, that's one way to get rid...

    Deus Ex on hiatus

    Considering how the game was raped by execs up to the very last minute before release, it's really no wonder that they'd halt it for now.

    Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire announced

    It's already fully funded. But I don't think I'll back it. For some reason, I didn't really like the original game's mechanics that much. And the story didn't compel me.
