Neither had Banjo-Kazooie. Mario 64 was the very first collectathon platformer anyone ever made, from a studio that had also never done anything in 3D before. It's a testament to their ingenuity that they were able to put together a decent game under those conditions, but it still turned out...

The problems with Twitter go way deeper than anything Musk could have caused or fixed. I'm starting to fully believe that "mankind wasn't ready" (and may never be) for such a low-friction way to say anything you want to anyone in the world as soon as it pops into your head, including and...

Well, speculation and money laundering are the only two things NFTs are good for, and the speculation ship already sailed. Does make me wonder how much of the initial wave involved money laundering schemes now, though.

Also, if they can just make this happen by passing a law, they didn't technically need to follow any judicial procedure that required all the evidence the committee spent the last two years gathering. They just needed a simple majority—i.e. all of the Democrats—to vote "yay" in both houses. Or...

It only took them two whole years. And people say our system is inefficient!

I mean, he already announced his 2024 candidacy; what else could he have had to reveal?

Wait, so the option he took away because he didn't like how many people were saying it was "ban them totally"? This is confusing.

What are they saying? The worst even I can muster is that it's hilariously lame. Imagine getting actually angry about this—and I say that as the guy whose thread on NFTs is literally named "The blockchain is going to destroy everything".

I honestly wonder how they expected kids to figure any of that stuff out, barring "buy the strategy guide/magazine that straight-up tells them all the solutions" (which they will never admit to even if it was the intent). The official answer was "They'll exchange tips on the playground", but...

Social media site modeled after Twitter encourages people to post hot takes; in other news, water is wet. I'm sure once they've had time to cool off, they'll realize that this is actually a brilliant idea that their Dear Leader had, and that actually they never said or believed otherwise, yes...

Allowing people in wartorn countries to communicate with each other and the outside world is literally the one good thing Twitter ever did for humanity. So naturally Musk had to get rid of that. Well, that and he's actively trying to throw the war in Russia's favor for reasons we still haven't...

I didn't realize he was ever even close to being the richest person in the world; I thought that was Bezos?

I feel like the following panel is equally relevant: Calvin being sent to his room and saying "But worse is more likely."

Is that the first time any sitting member of Congress has openly come out in support of the insurrection like that? The Democrats had better be pushing for her expulsion immediately.

I have another "prediction" that's really more of a "thing I hope they do": there's a scene somewhere in the middle of the movie that ends with something going wrong, and it cuts to everyone's worried faces before fading out—you know, like in every cartoon ever—and the background score ends with...

Generally, good practice in web design is to not have the same object do one thing if you click it and a different, equally useful thing if you mouse over it and wait for a moment. Also helps to not label said object with only one of those two things. I'm directing this at the Xenforo guys...

He sure as hell won't if he's actually taking as big a loss on this stuff as Wonko suggested. It'd have to be offsetting the combined profit margins of the entire pharmaceutical industry. Even in this economy, no one is that rich. I was wondering out loud if this is also available through...

Oh sure, but when there's a difference between $47 and $9657, it seems unbelievable that the manufacturers's markup isn't a huge part of that. Especially since the distributors and retailers are actually competing with each other and have an incentive to keep their margins small.

Funny thing is, that was only his second post. Which is one more than I was expecting.

Wow. Is this the threshold where I can demand a user be instantly and permanently banned, "free speech" be damned? Or am I going to have to do something I'll regret in the morning?
