Yes I'm familiar with the comedy show that came from, but what you're apparently insinuating is that the UK/EU is all talk and has actually done nothing to reduce carbon emissions in the last 15 years, which is very not true. UK emissions were 35% below 1990 levels in 2014. https://www.theccc.org.uk/tack...
I was born and raised in the UK before moving to the US about 15 years ago. Back then it was considered self-evident by pretty much every person in the EU that global warming was not only real, but very definitely anthropomorphic (man-made), and also inevitably going to kill us all if we didn't do something very tangible about it very quickly, which probably meant significant but necessary lifestyle compromises. Anybody that denied global warming was frankly considered a retard. After doing significant ongoing research on the Internet I still believe that global warming is very real and anthropomorphic, and even though we don;t have absolute proof, since 99.9% of the scientific community and all indicators point that way, (and for those that don't, all have connections/funding to big oil), it just makes basic common sense to take global warming seriously and do all we can before its too late to do anything. Fast forward to today. I now live in the US. I'm honestly amazed by the number of Americans (including some of my best friends and apparently also including our next president) that apparently sincerely believe that global warming is not even happening and is all just made up by the scientists, or worse, just some commie plot. With Trumps recent announcement of cutting the EPA and appointing Myron Ebell (famous climate change denier) to head the EPA transition team, I've got to ask: Am I the fool for unduly worrying about our only means of survival, or is the majority of the rest of America the fool for being so willfully ignorant of all the scientific research and the associated danger of ultimate extinction of much if not all life on earth, for a few short-term dollars?
Yes but its chicken and egg. If there's no way for people to play AAA games on linux then guess what, there won't be many linux users showing up in a steam survey.
At least by supporting stuff on other platforms its working towards giving people a real option, which when the playing field is even, ultimately will mean numbers are skewed by user-preference rather than necessity. At that point I'm hoping Linux will eat Windows's lunch.
I agree that Windows will likely be dominant for gamers at least for a few years yet, but once gamers at least have other viable options, the anti-windows snowball will start gathering mass and momentum, and more games studios will find that they have to take also producing Steam/Linux targets seriously.
The good news is that both Unity and Unreal are coming close to making the platform choice almost transparent. We just have to convince the game devs to stop breaking out and still leaning so heavily on Microsoft-proprietary APIs like DirectX.
Well given that contrary to the Democratic propganda, his net worth is now factors more than what he started with, and that just that show earned him a LOT of money, I don't see how anyone could reasonably say he's pretending at being a businessman.
Yes but you're talking about logical, predictable systems. That is not human nature. Just look at groups like BLM. It should be more than obvious by now that "Affirmative action" is just a lame peecee excuse for more racism. The only way to properly end the problem is to eliminate racism, not encourage more (in either direction).
Is this really an attempt at sarcasm/irony/comedy?
I'm hard core anti-Hillary, I love guns and big trucks, fast cars and horsepower and real freedom not the peecee liberal kind, but come on wake up and smell the coffee already.
The fact that climate change is happening is at this point beyond fucking undeniable to all but the most full-blown retard that is actively avoiding informing themselves with even basic reading about it at all. Please at least for the sake of not making everyone on the right all look like a bunch of dumb backward hicks, get an actual clue.
I've long believed that even well-meaning groups and services that are explicitly established to help only people of a particular race or ethnicity are actually keeping racism going much more than eliminating the problem, and as such should be illegal. You either provide soup/scholarships/whatever equally for everyone that needs it or no-one.
Another example: All those government forms that ask your ethnicity... yes I know its optional to reply, but that shouldn't even be a question in the first place.
I don't know if it was rigged or not but given the depth and scale of Hillary's corruption I'd be amazed if she didn't at least try to buy people in the electoral college off.
Yep and I expect the Brits, French, Spanish, Italians and Germans were in communication with Trump too. Oh noes!!! The redcoats are coming!!!
This ridiculous paranoia from the left wing media sources who are nothing more than sore loosers throwing a temper tantrum and trying to incite a backlash has to be seen for exactly what it is.
Because they're more lazy than Republicans. Republicans generally believe that that no-one owes you a living so if you want something you have to make it happen for yourself.
Democrats support the handout/blame culture so are more inclined to do nothing for themselves and rely on others to bail their asses out.
The fact that this result was apparently a surprise is just more proof of how badly the mainstream media and their polls are so heavily biased towards the left.

Its also wrong to say we don't care. Most of us over 50 have kids. Besides, most of my family make it to at least 90.
Thats no excuse. I myself am over 50, and I'm pretty damn sure its real. Actually many of the deniers I've met are Millenials.

All they're gonna get from mine is pizza and mac n' cheese.
If a system uses eye tracking to decide how to display something, doesn't that mean it's necessarily limited to a single user experience?
What muffler?
I can imagine it now... Tie fighter noises all over the place.

In other news, 78.647% of all statistics are made-up.

I'll believe that CA is rightwing nutjob-friendly when their gun laws make any actual practical sense at all.

Could we at least get DPRK? It contains far less nutjobs than CA and Kim Jong looks better in a pantsuit that Hillary does.
Please don't attribute starting this to us right-wing nutjobs. Very few of of us live in CA.
The Clintons have been running scams for decades.
> Searching for 'canada emigration' would return pages about how to leave Canada which would not be helpful since they haven't even arrived here yet.
its probably in your own best interest to have that already printed out for them when they get there though :-)

No it was flat out rejection of the systemic corruption that Hillary brings with her.
