Nate Silver predicts Trump has 64% chance of winning the electoral college in latest forecast
  • How about this:

    Two people give the odds for the result of a coin flip of non-weighted coins.

    Person A: Heads = 50%, Tails = 50%

    Person B: Heads = 75%, Tails = 25%

    The result of the coin flip ends up being Heads. Which person had the more accurate model? Did Person A get something wrong?

  • Plant-Based Meat Alternatives Healthier And Better For The Planet, Report Finds
  • a heck load of chemicals injected into a block of soy beans paste.

    Everything's a chemical, this is just language used to make things sound scary. The taurin that cats need that isn't found in vegan cat food is identical to the taurin in meat.

    Additionally WE can make that choice but cats that are obligatory carnivore would never choose vegan as they are obligated to do so.

    If you're so concerned about a cat having a supposedly harmful (the science on this disagrees with you, to be clear) choice made for itself by the human who is keeping it, why are you fine with the choices made for the animals that are kept in awful conditions and then killed for cat food with meat in it? Those animals are also kept by humans and have choices made for them that are unnatural to them, and they are most certainly being harmed.

    If a vegan diet is ethical for a cat is unknown.

    The science on this is pretty clear, and there are plenty of examples of cats thriving on a vegan diet for many many years. Of course, it's important to consult a specialist and give the cat regular checkups if switching its diet like this.

  • What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?
  • There's so much content, even if you don't play BL3, you'll have a lot of fun! BL1 and BL2 have a GOTY edition with all the DLC (from memory, between 4 and 6 story DLCs per game, BL2 also has 2 additional characters and a sort of max lvl / extra difficulty mode), and are super cheap at this point. Do wait for a sale if possible, BL1 GOTY Enhanced is frequently 67% off ($10), and BL2 GOTY 80% off ($9)

    There's also The Pre-Sequel, which came out after BL2 and plays between BL1 and BL2. Gameplay is like BL2 with some additions, but it's not as good as BL2. Still worth playing imo, but the community is split on it. If you play it, even though it plays between BL1 and BL2, it's intended to be played after BL2.

    A lot of the more interesting things regarding character builds & weapons happens in NG+ and NG++, you can spend ages just replaying it and farming bosses & chests in the endgame, and the coop is also really nice (but not at all required). I definitely recommend starting with the first one, and if you do, I think Lilith has by far the most interesting gameplay. In BL2, I think almost every character has fun gameplay, just Axton feels a bit boring to me personally.

  • Yeah, that last one was sarcastic. They kinda fucked up the story, writing and characters. Villains were ass, writing for most beloved characters was basically a character assassination, Maya & Krieg never even met again, just everything that could go wrong, did go wrong.

    Gameplay was great, but I hated everything else so much that I uninstalled after 5h (with close to a thousand hours spread across the rest of the franchise).

  • A lot of people will disagree, but I loved Star Fox Adventures. It was easily my favorite Star Fox game.

    3D Rayman games, the only one I played was Rayman 2, so that's all I can go off of.

    BIONICLE, the game to the movie was a bit janky, but so much fun!

    Pokémon Rumble: I remember only liking the first one (didn't play the second), and really disliking Rumble U. There's a mobile game now apparently, but...no thanks.

    A very obscure one: Onslaught, from the Wii Shop. A first person sci-fi shooter with Wii motion controls, playing on an alien planet with giant bug creatures. Quite reminiscent of Helldivers or Starship Troopers.

    Asura's Wrath: I think a remake would be nice, not sure if there's much space for a sequel, the ending fit quite nicely.

    Xenoblade Chronicles X: I'm gonna count this as its own franchise separate from the other Xenoblade games, and a remaster, remake or sequel would be amazing.

    Bonus: Borderlands 2 had a good setup for a sequel, an incredible villain and such great characters. I'd love to see where they'd take their stories, like Maya & Krieg. Should be about time for Borderlands 3, I'm sure it'd be great! (FUCK WHYYYYY)

  • Spectrobes had such a unique feel to it.

    I didn't play the one on the Wii, but from what I've seen, I think I'd prefer a mix of all 3 games. I feel like the combat had slightly more depth on the DS games, but Origins did more in 3 dimensions and had a Spectrobe follow you in the overworld.
