Sobering thought: 3DS XL, and the issue of...

So, it was an innocuous tweet: Who’s thinking about getting a 3DS XL, then? Out tomorrow in the UK. And I like it a lot more than the original model. ttp://is.gd/bWmlKF But it got me thinking: why would I? Let’s do a quick breakdown here. A 3DS XL is around £180-£200. For this, according to Wikipedia, you get an ARM CPU clocked at around 233MHz, 128MB of FCRAM, 2GB of...

We can't clamp down on guns because they'd resort...

nanner: But that doesn’t keep them from trying to restrict abortion. US rate of gun deaths, per 100,000: 10.27 UK same rate: 0.46. Difference? No legal way to purchase guns. Does that not say it all?

His apartment may have been booby-trapped, showing that this was pre-planned. And the internet is full of dumb commentary. It’s not even a good movie. Was he [political persuasion]?

laughterkey: daveholmes: Hey, let me wander into this nightmare Daniel Tosh situation uninvited! - I agree that you can’t really regulate jokes, but my understanding of jokes is that they require construction and editing and thought. “Hey, wouldn’t it be funny if she got raped by five guys?” (her version) and “Hey, I bet she got raped by five guys!” (the club owner’s version) don’t strike me...

cognitivedissonance: breakfastcookie: This is something that happened to a friend of mine in her own words. “So, on Friday night my friend and I were at her house and wanted to get out and do something for the evening. We brainstormed ideas and she brought up the idea of seeing a show at the Laugh Factory. I’d never been, I thought it sounded fun, so we went. We saw that Dane Cook, along some...
