Topic | Is The Newsroom good? |
lilORANG 01/23/18 12:11:09 AM #7 | Antifar posted... It's Aaron Sorkin Yeah, I've noticed the dialogue is mostly ridiculous, but i do like the characters. It just feels a bit on the nose at times, like when he interviewed the 3 conservative peeps on the immigration bill and they were all so far beyond caricatures it wasn't even a making a point. --- |

lilORANG 01/22/18 11:00:48 PM #17 | It's ok. Not really a very good comedy but I like the cast. It's one of those shows you can put on and let play in the background while you browse CE. --- |

lilORANG 01/22/18 9:06:44 PM #22 | littlebro07 posted... Fucking why, though? conservatives think high tariffs can kill overseas competition, thus making people buy 'Murican! but for that to even have a chance to work America has to be producing the thing in the first place. As you can see, that's not really the case... https://news.energysage.com/where-solar-panels-are-manufactured/ so in reality this is just a way to spite the industry and try to prop up coal one last time --- |

lilORANG 01/22/18 6:41:27 PM #1 | After Kylo kills Snoke, he gets knocked out by the lightspeed crash, and Hux happens upon the aftermath. Kylo wakes up and is about to leave and the conversation goes something like this: Hux: Where are you going, can't you see that they've killed the Supreme Leader? Kylo: The Supreme Leader is Dead! *force chokes Hux* Hux: *gasping for breath* Long live the Supreme Leader and then Kylo lets him go. was that some weird way of Hux naming Kylo the new Supreme Leader, because that seems to be what happened? It doesn't really make sense as a conversation. --- |

It's used to artificially restrict how much you can explore. There are areas where the enemies literally just have a red skull icon above their heads, and that means they're strong enough to one shot you, and you can't do any damage to them. Steer clear of those areas. --- |

Topic | Is The Newsroom good? |
lilORANG 01/22/18 8:15:05 AM #1 | Saw the first ep last night. The actual drama and teh characters and stuff were good enough, but the actual news show was cringey af (bc ya know they actually knew everything that was going to happen since that story already happened). Like they were trying to give the impression that the show was a success because they had a good team and Will was off script and doing his thing, but really it's because Aaron Sorkin already heard about the Deepwater Horizon spill. Like he's preaching at people for not having the benefit of hindsight. --- |

lilORANG 01/22/18 8:02:28 AM #3 | I think Dex used cloned staff from Kamino so to cheat on his taxes, so he was familiar with them that way. Everyone knows that for tax purposes clones don't count as individuals, but as a part to the whole --- |

lilORANG 01/21/18 10:09:25 PM #1 | Haven't heard much since the initial blowup. If he gets nominated for an Oscar or something there will probably be some twitter backlash, but I'm not hearing Hollywood say they're unwilling to work with him ever again like they did with some people. Or did the Aziz thing distract from this? What's going on? --- |

lilORANG 01/21/18 1:28:16 PM #51 | FLUFFYGERM posted... it absolutely is as big of a leap No it's not. It's a whole lot easier to move to another denomination that also believes Jesus is your savior, than move to a different religion with different deities. You're not reshaping your worldview, you're changing how you worship. FLUFFYGERM posted... you can even be disowned by friends and family for the switch because it is perceived as joining a different religion. that's on the shittiness of the families, not the perceived differences/similarities in the denominations. --- |

How many Christians / Jews / Hindus / Muslims actually accept that you need to be part of their religion in order to be a good person or go to heaven? The former, very few. The latter, idk.

lilORANG 01/21/18 12:42:14 PM #36 | Zikten posted... lilORANG posted...that's the logical result of believing one thing but not another this is a vast oversimplification. They don't believe in all gods, in the sense that I couldn't make up a god right now and worship it, and all Hindus wouldn't suddenly believe in it. The validity of other gods won't be questioned, but the religion still has its own mythology and traditions, which are followed over those of other religions. So yes, they think their views are right. If they thought other views were right, they'd follow those teachings. FLUFFYGERM posted... Another angle this topic didn't consider is that...maybe every religion is similar in the areas that matter. because that's irrelevant. Every religion can be boiled down to "be a good person" but some religions don't let you be happy in the afterlife unless you follow that religion. Being similar enough means we can get along, because we have shared cultural values, but it does nothing to address the underlying feeling of "i'm right, you're wrong" --- |
