Yep, that's the one!

Do you want to?

What was that new show about a zombie that retained self-awareness and works at a police coroner where she eats brains that give her the memories of the victims which she uses to help the police solve the cases? I'm not making this up. I can't recall the name but it is an honest to god real TV show.

As someone who has worked on f2p mobile games I can tell you with absolute certainty that if you don't pay for the product, you are the product. Don't play that nonsense. Everything about these games is designed to get you to pony up cash. And I do mean everything. I recall at some point I modeled a level entirely made out of golden treasure not because we wanted to, but because the publisher needed money and needed something to put players in the mind of "my amount of coins is so small in comparison, I should get more".

Yeah, same for me, got Speedfan on autorun these days. Can't discern whether or not Firefox is the issue though.

Yeah he was awesome as Conan, too bad everything else in that movie was balls. Sometimes even a great lead can't save a bad movie. Especially if that great lead's shadow is still visible on the wall that they project the matte painting background on.

Ron Swanson disapproves.

That's about how hard I laughed reading that.

God, the amount of examples you just gave off the top of your head makes me sad. How many "smart/unique person solves the police case" episodic dramas do we need?

I believe it's been suggested that the ability to rationalize and live in communities wasn't so much intergrated into our brain as tacked on in a new bit right next to the mammalian instinct to procreate and seek out a fat meal to satisfy ourselves for as long as possible because we don't know where the next meal is coming from. It's supposedly why a lot of things people do seemingly go against their logic and desires. I'm no expert though, so don't take my word for it.

I can understand your reading of the post, but as far as I know that post is meant as "we're timing this out, here's something to think about in the meanwhile" and not "we're timing this out, here's why". Either way, like his post says, if you want to debate the decision you can take it up with him. Our policy is not to engage in open debate so there's nothing else I can tell you. I would like to reiterate that it's a time-out, not a ban. Take a break, settle down.

I think it kinda makes sense that they'd slightly distance this version from comic book Aquaman. Aquaman has some cool storylines but the general public perception of Aquaman from non-comic fans is a meme, or a joke, sadly. Plus, I really like Jason Momoa so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Now that you mention it, I did notice an increase in GPU temperature lately but I just figured it's because I haven't opened my rig up and cleaned it in too long, but it correlates with updating my Firefox.

He's not even that unknown, he was one of the founding members of the Avengers team. There's actually an MCU Ant Man movie coming out in August starring Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas.

As far as I can tell Alum is implying the opposite, that it's a cultural thing?

I'm not sure if you're joking because Ant Man is also a real Marvel superhero.

Plus, there's the whole thing where you're never thin enough for some people. Action - reaction. When I see a poster for a Hunger Games movie get posted and the comment section is full of "I dun get y every1 luvs Jennifer Laurence, shes so fat" then I weep a little for our ancestors because their offspring has degenerated.

Cool initiative, but I'd like to point out that these are slightly over our image signature size limits already. I'm not going to rules lawyer you guys since it's such a tiny bit so you guys can just keep 'em comin' - just don't make 'em any bigger, alright?

Breaking Bad did the same thing, great first episodes then dial it down a bit to start building up.

Common sense is a learned skill? What is common sense other than critical thinking combined with basic knowledge? i.e. things you learn?

You sound like you think those are innate abilities rather than learned skills.

I don't know if that's really "working correctly" because "feeling bad about it" can take so many forms. I highly doubt a person whose psychological response to seeing a fit person is "you'll never look like that, go die in a hole you fat pig" is going to be motivating, let alone the "correct response".

Haha, now that's a comeback, KaineParker. Gave me a good laugh. Okay, so I was obviously exaggerating but some days I'm 2-3 kg lighter or heavier than I was the day before without having done anything different. I'd hate to mess with peoples hard work, but 5 kg is kinda peanuts as far as I'm concerned. I'm a skinny guy, though, so hey, maybe that just goes to prove the idea that fat just gets stamped on your DNA and it gets harder to lose it? Now my ladyfriend lost over 20 kg pretty quickly by changing her diet. She was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome and dropped milk, gluten, onions, alchohol and a couple of other things that triggered it and about one and a half year later she's stable at almost 25 kg less. On the other hand, it's made cooking so boring!

5kg? That's how you debunk this? Pal, I lose 5kg taking a dump.

So diet and excercise are the way to prevent it, but once you are obese it becomes part of you? All the more reasons to put more effort into education and diet/excercise programs for young people.
