I notice myself bitching about lag (which is something I used to make fun of people for), even though I have pretty fast internet -- and I'm pretty sure I played FPSers on a 56k (somehow) when I was a kid. Definitely frustrating though when for example in Quake I can play practice mode and it...

Sort of off topic, but this is something that fascinates me: How we went from people thinking caesar was strange for only liking women, to homosexuality being almost universally taboo...

yeah, and women can be president.

Dude I would love to be a housewife. Thanks a lot matriarchy! Taking all the good jobs for yourself!

This is going to sound extreme, but I like sequels. I like when a universe that I enjoy gets expanded. I'm all for new things, but it's nice playing in a familiar setting too.

I was talking to one of my friends that has a degree in psychology about studies of adolescent children and which toys they choose to play with etc. She was saying that even then it's impossible to distinguish inherent behavior from learned behavior because babies are basically balls of...

My guess is that is something like subterfuge. "Oh, yes, let's be friends as my army slowly makes its way to your borders." "we come in peace ak ak" And if you are currently frantically making units, then that's why they attacked you. If you're weak you're an easy target. That's why the...

The question is, if, hypothetically, it were proven that women were simply choosing (physiologically, not psychologically) to not enter fields such as science at the same rate as men, should we still make efforts to equalize those rates through affirmative action.

This is incorrect, but I would be happy to be proven wrong. I think this is mostly true, but then you do get the occasional walmart which was just blatantly fucking over women.

It does matter though, doesn't it? If, for example, the pay discrepancies were completely explained by a higher percentage of women leaving to raise families, then women shouldn't be paid the same as men, right? They are not working for as long and aren't as committed employees due to their own...

This is how it's going to end 100%.

Good point. Though she could find them and die in the process or something, and that's why the alien movies don't know about them.

No, that's silly. Do other people on here think that?

I mean it's incredibly long for a movie review. They're normally, what, maybe three minutes?

Why are there quotes around long? Do you not really think it's long?

Did you really watch that whole thing?

You also see people making very strong claims regarding psychology, which is, I'd say, even more impossible to prove than physiology. Why are there fewer women in game design? Sexist culture. Where does rape stem from? Rape culture. XYZ? Patriarchy. Not to say that those notions are wrong...
