  1. That was a great show! A show with good music, balls and ambition. I haven't started season 2, but I have high expectations and plenty of time
  2. It's not that easy to make these decisions IMHO. I don't know about Sweden in 2009 with H1N1, but in France people were pissed about the government buying 90+ million vaccines for nothing. Every public agency wants money and public spending, it's really hard to arbitrate. As for "Orange man bad", I try to avoid any news about him, journalists lose half of their IQ when they deal with him
  3. Yes, this one is terrible too.
  4. Yes, they should listen to scientists and listen to them closely, but the politicians are still the ones who make the call. It's hard to find a balance between safety and economy. In fact, governments often put a price on the value of a life to make decisions on public infrastructures, like road safety. Few people know that, but they have to do it in order to take decisions. It's hard but there's no other way. We need someone to call the shots
  5. I love science and I'm pretty much a science guy, but scientists don't know everything. It's impressive how knowledegeable they are compared to centuries ago, but there are lots of things scientists don't know (particularly biologists and docs). I know a girl in epidemiology, it's a complicated field. Virus can mutate and without reliable data, it's hard to understand. China didn't provide many reliable data (to avoid the blame game), so it didn't help to understand this shit. Also, there's always a balance to find between safety and economical/social issues. It's a very complicated problem, and scientists can't make this arbitrage: we elect and pay politicians, people with responsabilities, to do that. Their job is not easy. Remember H1N1? France bought 90+ million vaccines (we are only 60 million) for NOTHING. People got angry against them, saying that they wasted money. Arbitrage is tough. Few people are cut out for this. There are always bad consequences in a choice. I don't blame our government. They did the best they could do. As for scientists, not all of them knew what was gonna happen. Far from it! (and they still don't know how it will evolve - though they are more knowledgeable now)
  6. Another good autopsy of Terminator Woke Fate.
  7. By Ron Negrete, Another love magazine
  8. You can't make this shit up Marvel is ridiculous. BTW, promoting obesity is not very ethical https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/effects/index.html
  9. There are attempts, but luckily the sane competition in this industry punishes the bad attempts and promote the genuine gaming brands. Gaming journalists in mainstream media are infected, but no one listens to them. The gaming trends are made by youtubers now.
  10. There are douchebags in the gaming industry (like EA - these little f***ers), but they get punished (EA got punished very hard after their lootbox bullshit). Independant studios that are good get promoted (like CD Projekt). In Hollywood, nobody punishes the brand with the mouse when they do crap (like when they FUBAR Star Wars). Their shills in the media keep polishing their shoes. Now, there are talks of Apple buying the Mouse... Hollywood does smell like a freaking oligopoly and it rots like one.
  11. I was born in PC gaming. I recently bought a PS4. The only advantage of the PS4 is that they have exclusive games (like GOW), but apart from that PC games look better imho.
  12. Yup, the video game industry is full of creatives and their story telling has been great for a long time: Fallout (the first one) and Fallout 2 were brilliant in that respect. What's even better today is that video games are now very very realistic (which wasn't the case 10 years ago). The graphics are awesome, the open worlds make you free and there are a lot of innovations. At the same time, the writing in Hollywood has become mediocre (it's all about brainless activism today) and CGI are actually getting worse! Repurposers dominate Hollywood because the writers are clueless. Added bonus: Hollywood is a freaking oligopoly, whereas there's more competition in the gaming industry
  13. So? Plug a good computer into your entertainment center. Just buy a long HDMI cable or a wireless connection if your computer is far away.

  15. Dude, just don't play on console. My computer is a couple of years old and it already beats all of these specs. When I want to play 3rd person games, I just plug a PS4 controller in a USB port and it works. So, the gameplay is the same, but my graphics are much better. There are sometimes great graphics on console games, like God of War, but only because it's been developped and optimized for a single platform (and GoW pushes the PS4 like crazy, I can hear the fans at max speed very often).

    OMG FACTS

  17. What's the matter? The CIA got you pushing too many pencils? Containment + new movies are garbage = time to re-watch the classics!

  20. This competition is great. It doesn't matter if it's not about models.
  21. I'm not sure I'd even want to use this thing as TP but at least it's put to better use this way!
