  1. It had to be clarified elsewhere that this isn't an April Fools' joke, lol.

  3. Your matter-of-fact posts honestly crack me up, dude.
  4. I normally don't like Chuck Todd, but I liked his experiment here, making electoral votes proportional to the population. Wyoming gets 1 electoral vote per 192k people, whereas California gets 1 per 700k+. If each state received 1 electoral vote per 192k people, it would look like this. Trump would have still won with this system (though it would do wonders for representation, really hyper-localizing the districts, and making the House truly the "big state solution" since every branch of government seems geared toward the Republican Party. Obviously there are many ways you could change the system to make it fairer, but I enjoyed this experiment.
  5. The issue has been resolved, but check your airline if you or someone you know is flying today as there are still delays in major airports.
  6. I started watching a minute or two before you posted. This was a fantastic segment, and I love when someone who does this clearly has an appreciation for the product and actually watched. There are a lot of stereotypes for wrestling fans, but the fanbase is diverse and international, and all the ones I speak with, while disappointed if a wrestler is out due to a concussion, prefer they get better considering early deaths and retirements among wrestlers. Seeing Scott Hall make his Hall of Fame speech coherently -- yes, I know that sounds backhanded, but it's true -- was awesome, and hearing him share stories and insight is great. Hearing Bret Hart speaking excitedly (excited by his standards) about ring psychology is great. They break their backs all year, and Vince, as entertaining and amazing as his in-ring character is and how great he made the organization in the late 90s/early 2000s, seems like a dick.
  7. Bond for me easily. I remember watching Bourne Supremacy when it released in theaters and not enjoying it. The thing is, I feel how I watch movies have changed, and I never watched the first one, so there was a lot working against me lol. The main thing that I disliked was the way it was shot; I couldn't follow anything.
  8. It's honestly a sad end that it's closing before the gen is over. I can understand since Evolution doesn't exist, so they're not constantly updating the game, but as someone who doesn't play many racing games past Mario Kart, Evolution actually made me feel excited about it because you could tell how excited they were about the concept. They also had the right idea of a socially connected racing game this generation. It would have been cool to see this live alongside Gran Turismo Sport or maybe a Drive Club 2, but between the year delay, the rough launch, and Drive Club going from a planned PS+ game to a stripped down PS+ game, it just didn't work out. I hate seeing studios crash like this because no one's trying to make a bad game. It had some really hardcore supporters and players. It looked the most ambitious as far as what the game was trying to do of Sony's initial announcements (Knack, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Driveclub, Infamous: Second Son).

  10. Gonna quibble with this. Not that Fox News and Republican Radio haven't helped radicalize people. I'm totally seeing that. And Trump called Fox News "our friends" at a recent rally, so there's clearly an echo chamber with fake news and misinformation. But I think Fox News' ratings get overstated. They're the most watched cable news, not network news, and while that probably seems a little "WELL ACKSHUALLY," their ratings aren't comparable to nightly news at 6:30, for example (the lowest rated one gets over 6 million viewers), and Fox & Friends doesn't get the ratings of the networks (ABC/CBS/NBC). NPR gets almost 40 million listeners a week, with All Things Considered getting around 15 million. Something like 60 Minutes recently had 10 million viewers. Stuff like that.
  11. I remember when Ed Henry was a CNN correspondent. I don't care how much Fox News is paying him; any hosting job on Fox & Friends is a demotion in being human/sane.
