Rights? What right do men have which allows them to become engineers that women don't?

Patrick really showing his fanboyism.

I don't know... ostensibly = "to all outward appearances". A person could say that by all outward appearance this a an fps. So, it's basically("for the most part") an fps. So, it would ostensibly be an fps.

No, since it always carries with it the implication of not actually being what it appears at all.

It seems that every staff member uses this word as if it mean "basically". At first I thought it was just Ryan messing around (as he is wont to do), but hearing the others use it with zero irony makes me wonder. I think I might at some point even have seen it blatantly misused in one of Patrick's articles.

Here is the actual definition, courtesy of Google:

os·ten·si·bly

/äˈstensiblē/

Now you know.

Under perfect libertarianism, criminals would only be launched into the sun by private enterprises.

I think, like most, your mistaking Anarcho-Capitalism for Libertarianism.

Not much to confuse

First line.

You did confuse them. "Libertarianism" can be an umbrella term, but in this case libertarianism would be a statist (albeit minimally so) philosophy, while anarcho-capitalism would be non-statist. The principles may be the same, but there's a big difference between the two.

I don't usually cling to things in that way, but I've spend upwards of $1000 getting the unopened World of Warcraft Collector's edition boxes. I thought it would be worth it since it's a game I've consistently played for almost a decade now. I'm missing The Burning Crusade and then my collection will be complete.

I have the games digitally so I'm never going to open them. They'll just sit on my shelf. No regrets.

What someone puts in their body is none of my business, so I wouldn't report it.

The GHz-edition seems to be the version that's most overclocked, so I guess I'll be getting that. Thanks for the help everyone.

Doesn't Patrick know this is a website about VIDEO GAMES?!

But seriously, anyone who thinks this is a good idea should wonder if it's okay if they decided to sell a man's bloody torso with a humongous bulge in a union jack speedo and sculpted to god-like perfection.

You probably wouldn't think it's a good idea.

You probably would think it was dumb and pointless.

You probably would never put it in your room and feel proud about it.

You might even get angry, saying that this was a real dumb move on the developer's part.

But you think this bloody woman torso was not?

I wouldn't care and I imagine that's the consensus. How could you?
