The article on GamerGate is also awesome, but my favorite part is probably that it contains the very best article about Trump you're ever going to read.

Why did evolution give most males so much testosterone instead of making low-T nerds

Dude needs to crack open a biology textbook and read up on the rest of the animal kingdom. The Winestein-ian attempts to explain every facet of human behavior and physiology in terms of it helping humans survive is just dead wrong.

The all‐enveloping tactile environment is now widely available and fully convincing. Its resolution equals or exceeds that of human touch and can simulate (and stimulate) all of the facets of the tactile sense, including the sensing of pressure, temperature, textures, and moistness.

I'm picturing the VR dildo-suit from Upload.

Gravity and Juiceros

I've been disappointed to see Doctrow's reaction to the AI industry, to say the least. He's spent so much time relentlessly campaigning against intellectual property that he apparently cannot imagine anything worse than intellectual property winning anything ever. I don't think he's a big picture guy, I think the internet just really likes him because at the end of the day he was popular on slashdot and he tells people that piracy is awesome.

Ok, I tried giving it a fair shake, and I guess it's got the same problem as every other forum roleplay: it's fun to roleplay, not fun to read someone else's roleplay.

[Request]: Use "Breeding humans like livestock" instead of "Eugenics" in most circumstances.

I like that instead of a study to back up their project, they have... one guy! Who tried it a month ago!

I spent way too much time arguing that NYT didn't dox Slatescott.
