Re: Hypothetical Question: What Would Happen to Human Society if a Universal Translator was Invented?
You immediately run into the Darmok problem. Just because I know what the words mean doesn't mean I know wtf you're talking about. If you want to simulate it go watch a Thai action movie with subtitles. Or most anything Bollywood. Sure the words are there, but the storytelling conventions and langua...

Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
To put it bluntly - anything he effs up in the USA is the USA's problem. It's his attitude towards friends and allies that I find utterly disgusting, openly going on about annexing other countries.

Re: Should All Cut Romances in Mass Effect be Restored? (Read Before Commenting Please)
I take issue with it being called the worst. Aribeth, Anders, and Darmas all outright betray everything your character stands for and kill a ton of innocent people in their romance paths, two of them tricking you into being directly complicit.
