Topic | Blue states have twice as many hate crimes per capita per year than red states |
CyricZ 02/19/18 7:23:33 AM #30 | For some of the folks in this topic: https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/hcv0415.pdf There's some interesting stuff in this report if you take some time with it. But in short, the evidence suggests that a significant amount of hate crimes go unreported as hate crimes. While this report also goes by region as well, it does not specify where in the US the lack of reporting is centered. This is not to say that these crimes A) do not happen or B) go unreported as crimes, just that they're not reported as hate crimes. A majority of these "unreported as hate crimes" get handled a different way. So, that suggests that either: 1) Hate crimes just don't happen as often in red states. 2) Hate crimes aren't reported as hate crimes in red states. 3) Diversity of the region plays a significant factor. And it's probably an indeterminable mix of all three. --- CyricZ |

Topic | if metal gear rising had a longer campaign, would it be the best game ever? |
CyricZ 02/18/18 9:44:52 AM #11 | ilovuuu posted... CyricZ posted...Just making games longer doesn't automatically make them better. Just adding side missions doesn't automatically make them better. There's only so much they could do to the game without retreading concepts you've already seen. I mean, I get it. You want more of the game. The question is, how would you extend the game without retreading and without artificially just extending the time necessary to do things? You'd have to insert a new game mechanic or style to keep things fresh. There's a pacing to Platinum games especially. --- CyricZ |

Right, because they were going to play a Fisticuffs of it. It's just the novelty of seeing the animu game pop up while they're playing PE.

Also, we have massive amounts of requirements for cars to be safe and street legal. Also we track car-related injuries and deaths in the CDC as a public health concern.

He had his heels up on his seat and his knees were out to either side. Fuck that. Also he had his phone out and on almost the entire time. So here I am trying to pay attention to the concert and I've got this phone light in my periphery. Boy... do I wish I was more assertive and would have bothered to address him. Honestly, he probably would have folded. Anyway, how's everyone's day? --- CyricZ |

CyricZ 02/16/18 9:32:09 AM #32 | If we're talking influence, it's all about perspective. Do I have an effect on a video game because I write a FAQ for it? In some small way, maybe, but I'm not going around trumpeting it. TFS, to their credit, maintains a similar stance of humility. I've never seen them claim to maintain the public eye on Dragon Ball through their work. Did they have an effect? Sure, but can we legitimately track its significance? Not with any confidence. --- CyricZ |

CyricZ 02/14/18 2:54:17 PM #23 | The only risk you take with "only review it if you like the series" is the factor of complacency. Not only does a fan of a particular series know how/where to find improvements, but they also have a tendency to forgive faults endemic to the series. And boy does Musou have its faults endemic to the series. --- CyricZ |

He's certainly not the first comedian to find comedy more difficult, or more correctly, having to adapt their own style of comedy as time and society change, and not being able to make the same jokes as before. --- CyricZ |
