I appreciate hot regardless of race or ethnicity. Try as might to impose my own version of white power on my nether regions little King Gustav will not see himself denied, he is after all my sovereign. Culture or religion though might present a problem. Not when it comes to dating but rather...

It's incredibly easy to make a person feel like shit in the moment but what you need to remember is that now that you are an adult rather than a teenager nobody cares for that anymore. What people will remember is not how you totally made that woman look like a fool but rather what a dick you...

So it's not so much that automatic cars would cut greenhouse emissions by 90% as much as it is that replacing personal vehicles with a fleet of electric auto-taxis would cut it by 90%. I think it is a bit optimistic to think that all automatic vehicles will be electric, I expect the first ones...

Phobia can just mean aversion and is applied to a lot more than just phobias, the irrational fear of something. An example would be well, homophobia, the dislike of homosexuals. It also has uses in chemistry speak what with the hydrophobic effect and non polar molecules being hydrophobic. Homo...

Felt like they could have cut almost all of the dorne plot. Just keeping the princess getting assassinated which seems like it would be important later on. Brianne and Pod didn't really have to show up until the very end to shank Stannis. The saved time should have been spent on fleshing out...

I always hate it when the victim of this type of pseudo religious persecution apologizes and admits fault in an attempt to save himself right before having his methaporical head chopped off. It reminds me of that scene in the first season of Games of Thrones, you know the one. It seems like...

It's funny how quick age barriers become blurry and then dissapear when you leave primary/secondary school and get out into real life. You used think people just a bit older than you where so old and people just a bit younger than you where just so little. And then suddenly you are...

There´s no reason that we would have to limit artificial intelligences in the same way we ourselves are limited. If we have to technology to make something that is just as intelligent and aware at us it makes sense that we would have at least some ability to define what the parameters of this...

Psycopathy and sociopathy are unofficial and interchangable terms for a person that demonstrates lack of empathy, lack of conformity to laws or social norms, irresponsible behavior, massive ego, failure to maintain healthy lasting relationships (but no problem establishing relationships) and a...

Star Wars isn't exactly all about grey and grey morality, the sith are clearly evil and the jedi clearly good, even if a bit zealous. Sure, the jedi are pretty quick to anger and have a pretty impressive body count for being "peacekeepers" but that is more a symptom of being characters in an...

Huh, and now I know. I thought HBO Nordic was just the nordic version of some global thing. I figured there would be like HBO Australia, HBO Europe, etc. That's real odd, for an american cable network to release a streaming service exclusively to Scandinavia (plus Finland). It's even odder that...

Wait, what the hell? I'm pretty sure I've had an HBO streaming service (HBO Nordic) that functions almost exactly like netflix (with worse interface) for almost half a year now. What is the difference between this and what I have?

Hard to say what kind of problems you might run into or how you'll like it here. I've met people from Iraq or Syria who fit right in without any real problems and people from countries like the UK that just seem to hate it. I think it's just the same as moving to any new place, if you make...

There is just no way that we could move anything even close to a even a tiny portion of the human race off this planet, even if we discover some sort of miracle technology tomorrow that lets us go all star trek within the decade. Even with commonplace and advanced space travel and even with off...

This seems nedlessly sensationalist. I'm not getting any sort of indication that we just looked up and saw a massive asteroid just wosh by that we hadn't noticed. They're really only a problem if we find one that is very likely (or even remotely likely for that matter) to hit us, assuming it is...
