      @redlianak An interesting view on the perils (and misconceptions) of gaming/modern/social media culture. How Violent Video Games Might Be Screwing With Your Brainhttp://www.cracked.com/blog/how-violent-video-games-might-be-screwing-with-your-brain/ …

      He should try games like Metro. They are HARDLY easy. Or maybe even play on the correct difficulty level for his skill. 😉 I didn't find him persuasive.

      I thought that the "obstacles satisfyingly disappear and you get your way eventually" argument might have legs. Even in real grinds (looking at YOU, Dark Souls III!), there's never an element of compromise.

      That's an interesting design challenge, but I play a ton of video games and yet still realize that life is crushingly hard and full of failure.

      Well, yeah, I guess some of us do. This is about where the tie-in to the whole "incel" toxic masculinity crap could come up. Humans are complicated screw-ups, y'all. Glad you were away from that whole van thing on Yonge Street, BTW.

          I was right in that location on Friday night. I go there all the time. It's pretty chilling. I suspect they'll put up blocks at intersections so people can't drive on the sidewalk soon.

          Have you seen the video of the cop arresting the driver? That's one collected motherfucker.

          The cop should be praised no end. The guy was trying to get shot and the cop didn't take the bait.

          "I have a gun!" "I don't care." That footage should be in every police academy on the planet. 🎖️

          Yeah Canadian cops are trained very differently.

          When the cop here in Edmonton was being stabbed (a couple blocks from my house) his instinct was to keep his gun OUT of the conflict. Different indeed. 🇨🇦
