"i'll buy this game"
its atleast unpopular in my country to buy a game, because most of people i know just pirate games

I feel like I am the only one that think these are terribly unfunny
[QUOTE=kill3r;41753360]How can you even say that "plasmids" is an element that doesn't work IN BIOSHOCK 1/INFINTE??[/QUOTE]
He never said plasmids didn't work in Bioshock 1, he's talking about how vigors don't fit in with Infinite's setting, which I totally agree with. Why would a city, where everyone's into purity, accept vigors? Most of the vigors don't even seem to be practical in their world, like Undertow and Charge. No one besides the Firemen and the Crowmen use vigors.
Also I just thought of this, why would they allow there to be a vigor (possession) that overrides weaponry and vending machines out in the public for anyone to use?
I like Infinite, but trying to make it fit in with the other Bioshocks held it back, in my opinion.
[QUOTE=The golden;41752857]It could also potentially land him in legal hot water. Especially if people start posting links to pirated content.[/QUOTE]
Yeah that's the main reason I think linking or saying what websites you went to gets you banned. However simply saying that you've pirated something is not likely to cause much trouble, but from Garry's way of handling people who pirate Gmod I'd guess he's just not fond of pirates in general.

Think I remember reading somewhere that it's easy to track pirates down for Garry's Mod with a specific error code. When Little Script Kiddie #524 posts the error logs possibly to here for help, Garry P-bans them.
I like rage comics.
I like PewDiePie's videos.
I like memes.
I have absolutely nothing against Bronies, Furries, or "Weeaboos".
I play [I]ROBLOX[/I].
I feel like the fucking Hitler of the internet right now.
I actually like futuristic looking cars with sharp angles, usually car buffs (around Facepunch anyways) think they're ugly

I don't really see a problem with either of these. The only issues with rage comics is simply that they're more often than not unfunny no matter if they're in rage comic format or not. And there's really no issue with those last three so long as they're not annoying about it. (Ie: Not constantly talking about it to you when they know you're not interested. Although I don't really see a problem in them occasionally bringing the subject up if it's something relevant.)

I know, the whole "Hitler of the internet" was based more off of other people's opinions. Almost every open hater of those groups I have met has called me a "faggot ponyfag/furfag/weeaboo sympathiser" or something similar when I state that I don't have anything against them. Which is one of the main reasons why I hate the internet.
I don't like King of the Hill.
The art is weird and the comedy moves too slowly.
I hate the writing of, but I like Donte from DMC.
He's just so hateable that I actually like him.

An unpopular opinion in the scientific community: I believe the universe to be deterministic, completely. I believe that any seemingly random event (quantum randomness for example) is simply not fully understood (factors not being taken into account) and thus only being random to your understanding, like an RNG, it seems random, but a complicated deterministic equation is behind the scenes.

I would like to believe that as well, but I can't because physics seems to point to randomness. (particularly Bell's theorem) Still, the idea of inherent randomness in the universe is a thing that seems to have stopped bothering physicists a while ago, but it still bothers me. How does the universe select what value is going to be measured?

This is referring to 'measurements' right? I thought that the schrodinger equation, a 2nd order differential equation (I think?) was completely deterministic. The inverted commas there because after I read the sentence it seemed to imply I thought only humans could make 'measurements'.

Yes. The Schrodinger equation is deterministic, but it describes the time evolution of a probability distribution.
The concept behind the Space Marine Centurion is actually pretty damn cool in my personal opinion, if not for the fact that they can fit in Land Raiders. Then again, I probably only think that the Centurion is cool due to exposure to mecha anime as a kid.

Randomness implies 2 effects can originate from 1 cause, in other words, that an effect can exist without a cause. Actually, now that I think about it, randomness would allow for the existence of a "God". Bell's theory does not say anything that would disprove determinism, by the way.
Half-life 2 is still more impressive than most games released these days

What are you talking about? It doesn't really matter because randomness is what we observe in nature so you're kind of just going to have to get used to it. Like Einstein, the idea of a random universe doesn't sit well with me at all, but until the evidence says otherwise you've got to deal with it or you're deluding yourself and that doesn't make for good science.
[QUOTE=mochisushi;41846451]Actually, now that I think about it, randomness would allow for the existence of a "God".[/QUOTE]
In a vague sense but you can call anything god so it doesn't really make a difference. "The big bang was caused by god." It's vacuous so your point doesn't really demonstrate anything.
[QUOTE=mochisushi;41846451]Bell's theory does not say anything that would disprove determinism, by the way.[/QUOTE]
What are you talking about? That is exactly what Bell's theorem says. It asserts that any ([I]local[/I]) deterministic theory is incompatible with our observations. The local part is pretty crucial but it means any theory consistent with experiment either has violations of relativity which we have never seen in nature or no hidden variable theory (i.e. any deterministic theory which explains how quantum states evolve without randomness) is compatible with experiment. People have proposed nonlocal deterministic theories which are exempt from Bell's theorem but largely these are not taken seriously because they involve nonlocality which we don't see in nature and which runs contrary to our (well-evidenced) theories.
Please do not insist on things if you don't know what you are saying.
The European Union is a shithole. Only rich countries are getting richer, the industry is almost dead in middle-eastern european states. They don't invest in local companies, so people has to choose big ones. (For example farmers can choose a tractor by a local company, but it has really bad quality, because of a lack of money.)
Skittles are nasty. When I pop something round and colored into my mouth, it better be chocolate.

Very much this.
Despite its flaws, it's a real step forward and there should be more games like it.
The Last of Us is actually...boring
[QUOTE=Wormy;41833049]I don't like strategy games.[/QUOTE]
I reckon I could really get into strategy games but many of them require so much micromanagement. Even Empire: Total War, which I have more than 100 hours in, is still a bit too much for me to handle. Not to mention other games like Sins of a Solar Empire or even the multiplayer in Dawn of War II. The singleplayer of Dawn of War II was perfect I reckon, although it wasn't really much of an RTS.
[QUOTE=Antdawg;41857119]Sins of a Solar Empire[/QUOTE]
Sins of a Solar Empire is a decent game but holy hell does it take forever to finish a game. I prefer Galactic Civilizations II more. Quicker games in general, more customizability, and it's turn based which feels better for that sort of game to me.
