I have to commend the game's developers. Although it is impossible to copy Hong Kong accurately, it does manage to capture the city's atmosphere. Makes me feel at home... well, sort of.

If only standard tactics were employed, the Imperial Guard will probably win, taking very heavy losses, in a hypothetical all-out war with the Space Marines, assuming the various companies/chapters within each faction disregarded any grudge or suspicion they have for each other. There're quite a...

I don't understand jiggle physics in games. I mean, yeah, I would look, it draws my attention, but it doesn't trigger any mental or physiological responses in me, i.e. not a stray thought. It's like I'm waiting for something--anything--to happen, but of course, nothing does.

I find the lack of appreciation for Yahtzee's work despicable. He has a subjective opinion. He express it. He does it in a humourous way, to provide fun to his viewers. In return, he gets bashed for his own feelings, which are neither right or wrong. This guy has put in hours of work every week...

I don't get people who argue against subjective views. There is only merit to argue if the presenter has facts wrong. Then there are also people who get worked up about what they say is "nothing" to them. On a Young Turks video, Cenk was commenting on how Thomas & Friends was a capitalist...

SOPA! SOPA! It's bloody SOPA all over again!! It's also the recent amendments proposed to Hong Kong's copyright laws!! Is it a trend these days? For countries to censor the internet in some way or form? I didn't know North Korea, always being reprimanded for doing just this, is now idolised for...

No, not even if I were interested. Not after my brother did and how it depressed my poor mother, how the relationship nearly ripped my family apart. I can't put her through anything like this again. The price is too dear. I wish my brother realized that, instead of insisting he was right, and...

The government is more concerned about censorship. I really rather they put their efforts into important things, but they act like a gang, intimidating people who dares to speak up against them, and not remedying real problems, of which there are many. I should stop here, as this is off-topic.

To sacrifice your own wellbeing simply for money is ridiculous. The kid was not motivated by charity. No, he was just greedy, and the life saved is probably some old coot's who everybody wants dead and is stubbornly refusing to expire.

Not necessarily, but definitely some rich man with what passes for a lack of morals.

One word: stupid.

Harold Camping did the math, except he assigned words rather arbitrarily to numbers... Oh whatever, read and laugh/weep/get angry. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_end_times_prediction God is infallible, but man is not, nor is the Holy Bible that while are supposedly God's words, have...

Not much survival instinct left in you, I take it? I suppose we are overdue for extinction as a species, but until that happens, I will have to keep doing what I can to stay alive.

I see I may not have clarified the reason I started this thread. Allow me to clarify. The reason I have posted this is to see how well people on this forum understands the issue. To be honest, I am bit surprised. I was expecting a lot a cynicism and internet trolling I see a lot on Youtube, but...

So, Peak Oil. The definition quoted from Wikipedia on 21st May 2011 at 7:47am BST is "the point in time when the global production of oil will reach its maximum rate, after which production will gradually decline." Essentially, oil production increases over a period of time in any given nation...
