Looks grey to me.

So....the Daily Mail ?

Sweeet.

Needs to be more pathetic. Grow a sketchy goatee and wear fashion glasses and maybe fabricate a tale of oppression as a Cubs fan or something.

That would work as well, imagine how many drones a B-52 could carry!

I see, I guess Guaranteed Minimum Income is better, rather than just getting money for being there - though I suppose testing people to see if they deserve it may be problematic.

So basic income or some other means ?

You need to give a story to make them feel sorry for you, fool!

Or just rally some of their moms

Still seems like plenty of people on the left are around in the US who aren't trying to live out their revolutionary fantasies and are trying to work change in a "calm" manner. Heh, for "garbage people" it's basically the Broken Windows theory - and people burning stuff and looting are garbage (there's a famous More quote on this). Hm, I am not sure if force wouldn't work, in theory, though I guess it'd reach levels of war crimes to strangle them via food and water or just killing them Roman style. Not sure what the solution would be to this though, in terms of a practical one, being outside of the US.

You think he was seriously suggesting that ? Gfted1's shtick is all about pepper spray and drones for enforcement of laws. I guess his lack of gravitas undercuts the real results this thread will have. Yep pretty much, a garbage area will tend to produce garbage people. Just baffling watching some of these idiots hurl bricks they've probably torn some building up to get or sabotage fire hoses (I guess the FD should just let them burn?).

Feed your anger on the potential. Be mad at what could have been and how they could do it in the first place.

Visions of B-52s pulling Arclight missions with giant 500lb tanks of pepper spray.

Well, it's worked well for Valve but with games proper

Yeah, expected as much in response, though at this case I'm not sure the failure is completely external to them. Well, they're just digging a pit for them to wallow in in the future, I guess. Heh, hopefully the Baltimore mayor gets turfed at the next opportunity and that with the Guard out things calm down. In the lighter side of things in Baltimore

Nothing like burning down businesses in your community to fight the power. God damn phone touch screens.

Seems like the government there is not up to snuff.

I said that was bad ? Personally, people getting emotional over polygons is very weird to me, but to each their own. It doesn't bode well for people who like games as they were, newer gamers seem to be difficulty averse (remember the article a ways back about games being inaccessible to those who suck ) But someone thought it was a casual v. non casual one that she was on about, when it wasn't.

Well, he wouldn't be a writer if he was not verbose. Not really sure there is a problem, games that resolve conflict in ways other than weapons do exist.

More accurately: there was a description of a certain subset of gamers, there was an (arguably weird) assumption that people outside gaming equate gamers with that subset of gamers, and some readers made the (arguably weird) assumption that the description was meant to characterize all gamers/all hardcore gamers/whathaveyou. Sure, she was being very back handed about it, but I could see where the punch is, add in context of her attitudes and opinions and it isn't that unfair to her. She wasn't heralding casual gamers so much as ones wanting experiences and deep emotional content or some crap like that, if I recall.

Yeah but was some weird assumptions of what the non-casual gamers are like. But then again it was written by someone who slams people as nerds when the industry was built by those, so it is of questionable worth as is she. Irony in this thread is improving!

That's an impressive dodge there.

Some sort of irony about this post.
