I firmly believe that if you want something, get it. If you can't afford it, work harder until you can. That said, a marriage is a partnership. So if you work harder to earn an extra $2,500, you will likely need to double time it and actually earn $5,000 instead. I doubt you will get aggro...

I vote for Red Rising.

Hell yea. I absolutely loved this book back when it came out. There are a ton of books like it now. When it was a new book though, it was a brand new world. When this book came out, science fiction was wildly different. It was all about space ships, robots, fantastic new worlds, etc. You...

I would nominate the first way of the shaman book, but I just read them. The next book on my list is the "One Second After" by William R. Forstchen. It's not futuristic scifi, but it is science fiction. I'm a sucker for a good post apocalypse story and this one was highly recommended. Plus...

I just finished the "Way of the Shaman" series by Vasily Mahanenko. I actually really liked it. It's a book about a VR online fantasy mmo. I usually can only hang with a series for about 3 books until I am bored with it. This one kept me all through the 7 book series. Don't misunderstand...

That's pretty spot on. The concept of the Yin/Yang isn't just philosophy, it's psychology. Our lows define our highs. The horrifying portions of humanity define the goodness in it. Light vs. dark, balancing the universe, Jedi vs. Sith shit, call it what you want. It's all the same...

Yep, I'm fairly certain we've all told this to ourselves at one point or another.

That's the piece of the puzzle that I don't have. I don't know how well using real ID actually works. I know that Korea uses real ID measures to safeguard against cheating. At least, it makes it extremely difficult to be banned from the same game twice. That's why most Korean games are so...

Oh, I'm not talking about using your SSN. That's over the top for sure. I'm talking about a state issued ID. The drivers license/state id is difficult to forge. It is also, more to the point, illegal and prosecutable to try. It doesn't provide any real access to your life, but is a unique...

I think the one would solve the other. Right now, hacking is so rampant, people tend to think anyone good is hacking. I think most of us have been accused of hacking at one point or another. I mainly get accused of hacks though in games where hacking is rampant. When I play games with...

I have been playing video games since the very first ones. I played the very first FPS, Wolfenstein 3D. I was among the first players to experience FPS PVP when we installed Doom on a dozen or so computers in the college computer lab. I played UO, EQ, Unreal tournament, CS, and almost every...

I don't know. I've always thought that Origin felt like a Danish or Swedish entry into the space faring manufacturers. It's the long sweeping curves that remind me of the designs that have been coming out of those countries.

I see your stuffed baked potato and raise you one stuffed french toast... Make a sausage, egg, and cheese scramble (nothing crazy. just ground sausage cooked up with eggs and cheese mixed in) Take a loaf of uncut bread and slice off a 1.5-2" slice (best done with a dense bread that has a...

That shit always makes me laugh. There are so many videos that play out the same story. Some preppy SJW adamantly tells a random white guy that he was privileged. Like that kid has any idea what the real world is like or has a single clue what hardships that person has been through. Poverty...

I know it seems that way, but looking at the current roadmap, we might see the game landing in 2020. That would be about right. Six years for a video game of this scope is pretty quick.

If that's the case, why is the video about Star Citizen and not No Man's Sky? How about the latest installment of Mass Effect? How about almost every single AAA release in the last 5 years? How did those "day 1 quality video games" work out? How about other games that realize their promises...

This is just a prime example of the victim mentality that has become unreasonably popular since the advent of social media and the resulting justice warriors. People started receiving positive feedback from society once they entered the "victim" status. Suddenly, thousands would rally behind...
