Thanks for taking the time to explain this well.

In this age of misinformation, reasonably, people have a hard time finding the humor in false portrayals anymore. You've got so much fake and unauthentic material now that people have gotten a bit jaded I think.

I recently read Jurassic Park for the first time and I thought the same thing. The movie provided a more engaging plot, had more emotional punch, and developed stronger characterization. Going back and reading Chrichton's work has been a rewarding exercise to me as a budding writer. He had some great ideas but also surprisingly had a lot of flaws in his work.

That's what the article calls them. What do you call beanbag rounds and rubber bullets and stun guns? I see the term less lethal or less-than-lethal used.

It's a bad article and a bad video. The non-lethal rounds did not kill him. The video says an officer "opened fire", after the non-lethal didn't work and the man grabbed the other officer's weapon. Opened fire in this case means a standard firearm. Other actually good articles covering this make that clear. He was struck in the chest with an actual bullet fired from a hand gun.

I agree the cops should have handled it differently and fucked up as usual

The article says they fired non-lethal rounds and doesn't mention that he was killed. It's a rage bait headline. Not that I want to support cops, but I don't like falsehoods being thrown around

I like it. I consider the gore really mild. But then I watch movies and play video games so I'm probably used to it.

It's a video game about creepy places and monsters. I tried the first level (what the image is about) but I couldn't quite get into it.

I don't use twitch anymore. And porn doesn't need to be everywhere. There's a place for it. There's nothing wrong with specific platforms. I wouldn't want a restaurant that sold porn in the back rooms either.

Why is twitch becoming a cam soft porn site? It was supposed to be about gaming. I just want to watch people play games.

I feel that. Me coming from a science background - always use your units. 20 and 20C are not the same thing. Without a unit, a number exists only as a mathematical idea. Even in my own personal notes, I use proper unit notation.
