Do you believe agnostics/atheists can be moral?
It's an interesting concept for what it implies about the person asking. There's the obvious implication that the asker is only moral by threat. I can't recall the name of the cognitive bias, but there's one where people tend to overestimate others similarity to themselves. I've read of interesting studies where you get people to accurately describe themselves by having them describe assumptions of other people.

Fallout: New Vegas
But otoh, there's Oscuro's which basically saved the game for me. I didn't really care about the gameplay. Nothing could fix the butchered setting. That's cool. I was just the opposite: Bethie's lore does nothing for me; I just wanted the gameplay fixed so I didn't feel like I had thrown my money down the drain. I wanted the exploration fixed. :'( I lost any interest in exploring dungeons when I realized all loot either scaled or rusty iron. No more glass daggers by sneaking into Daedra shrines.

"Regular joes" get arrested for that kind of thing.

Dear god, the original Halo is more dated than I remembered.

What about a police officer who pretends to be a person? Instead of a mindless tool for suppressing the proletariat? (just standing in for LoF here) Well, that should be punishable too. I mean, you can't just not suppress the proletariat.

Oh, well that makes sense then. The stomach is very sensitive to time travel, while the back has that whole dimension jumping organ.

Movies you have seen recently
The extended cut makes the movie have much more sense/coherency. Let those who hate Alien 3 hate it, I liked it (the extended version). I'm a slight fanboy of that director. He's the guy behind Fight Club and Seven! So I take him at his word when he hurls insults at Fox.

What about Captain America's getting shot with a bullet in the brainpan sending him to another dimension? Or was that just back in time, too? I can never remember. Omega beams I can understand. They're like magic beams. But Cap got a bullet to the noggin.

More UFO Madness
What about the berserker hypothesis?

More UFO Madness
Let's put it this way. You better hope they either don't exist or can't visit us. If they can travel faster than light, nuclear weapons become redundant. An FTL lump of iron is a doomsday weapon. If their ship so much as crash landed then you could say goodbye to cities.

A person who impersonates an officer can suffer legal consequences. An actual police officer faking official duties should get the same. I do not believe in double standards.

Civilization V
So, how's the late game? Does it have wacky future technologies?

Yahtzee reviews
I just watched all of his videos. It's like Yahtzee without the insults. Highly recommended. Wouldn't Yahtzee without insults be terrible?

I don't think I can play Halo: Reach any more. The multiplayer is just too terrible. I was playing for vanity rewards, but there's just too much grind to get them. You wouldn't design a single player FPS campaign where only one weapon was viable, why do they think it's okay for multiplayer? They've got entire modes dedicated to this fact of the game. Imagine an RTS with only one unit. It's absurd. It's repetitive...

I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favourite thread on Obsidian
When the controls said mine I thought "oh cool, we can lay landmines. But that seems useless unless I'm being chased by other vehicles or something."

Most sorceresses are sluts in TW universe. Powerful, long-lived, extremely hot sluts. Why single out Sorceresses? Geralt's the biggest **** of them all and he's not one.

Goodbye GOG.com
So, CDR isn't pursuing the goal of "make money through selling videogames?"

What you're saying is that the problem with games is they don't have enough sex?

Obviously games need to focus more on racial stereotypes and beating up hookers.

Playing more Halo Reach. I think it's the promise of making my Spartan prettier that keeps me. The campaign is fun. Online is nothing special. Except Gruntpocalypse. Imagine you've got a game where you're been attacked by swarms of tiny ninjas with grenades and the occasional rocket launcher. It's kind of like that.
