How about developing emotional maturity beyond the need to do violence over trivial bullshit, and the intellectual ability to grasp it's just a game and there's a billion other things to go do? The real pussies are the ones who get all worked up into a lather in the first place.
Well for one thing it denies them a highly-anticipated game. Or ruins it perhaps.
But it's ultimately just a game. I loved SimCity. When I heard the next one was online, I shrugged and moved on.
Would you feel impacted if they ruined the upcoming Hobbit films?
No.
Would you feel impacted if they made the Super Bowl pay-per-view?
No.
Would you feel impacted if Slashdot decided to cover celebrity gossip instead of nerd news?
No.
You can choose not to participate in any of the above. Doesn't mean it won't ruin your day.
Then maybe people need wider tastes/interests, along with a sense of perspective and more emotional maturity, if these singular things can ruin their whole day.
But designing a robot that is fun to be with
Siriusly?
Splitters.
Can you read? Do you know what modifiers are?
I hate both Parties. I was merely debating a point.
Well, that raises the question of the "who controls the robots" question, doesn't it?.
Klaatu Barada Nikto. *I* control them now, baby!
Gort! Smite my enemies!
Good thing that was fiction then.
It's really pathetic. People like the AC cannot see individuals. They simply can't. To them, Khanna was fired but "THE PARTY" and not one politician like actually happened. I think they are neurologically incapable of it, like how some people can't recognize faces.
The geekverse has become a complete intellectual wasteland riddled with batshit ideology and absolutely no critical thinking at all.
Stick to weeding out trolls.
eldavojohn goes off the rails in his first sentence. Khanna was not fired by "the Republican Party." He was fired by *one* guy at the request of a handful of others. That's what you want to give A+ to? Don't ever go into teaching, please.
Overall the Republicans are still more conservative, so a conservative like Khanna will have the best luck working within the GOP, perhaps with, you know, one of the *thousands* of others who didn't fire him.
Because his firing was the result of a small handful of Republicans, not everyone in the Party. Maybe he feels he can still work with the larger Party and change it from within?
Honestly, this absolute lack of ability a lot of you have to perceive that actions are carried out by individuals and not groups is more disturbing than anything discussed in the answers.
No, the problem isn't not seeing individuals. He was fired by individuals (Steve Scalise and some handful of reps who made the request), not by everyone on the Republican Party. And he flat out says the current Republican Party is broken. What more do you want?
Hell, it's *your* type of thinking, advocating dislike or distrust for an entire group because of the actions of individuals, that is often used by authoritarians to divide and conquer opposition.
Yeah, too bad there no, like, network you could log into and find a huge array of arguments for and against.
This is another game for fratboys not PC gamers.
