  1. Internet Neutrality

    Apparently one router company put the FCC site in the slow lane to protest. Good on ya.
  2. Executions by lethal injection.

    They use the force now, didn't you know?
  3. Why should the person above you be banned? V2

    Banned for being a new recruit of Simtropolis.
  4. The Next Person...

    Yes. Sun in my eyes annoys me. TNPTP games on console.
  5. Honest Thing about the person above you - Take 2

    Frequently visits Chat.
  6. Russian expansionism in eastern Europe.

    Separatism in a country where you are free to leave is ridiculous. A four-hour drive and you need never see Ukrainian land again. It's pretty obvious the Russian and American propaganda has distorted the truth, which is simple: Russia provoked a weak Ukraine and exposed it to terrorism, and by logic counterterrorism too. There is a simple solution here which Putin has obviously taken from Herr Adolf: Drag the country into panic and civil war from afar then come in on the grounds of protecting natives of his own country. I wonder how long it will be until Putin goes across and opens up the first gas chambers with big scissors and red tape?
  7. The "Good News,Bad News" Game

    The good news is you didn't need her for anything.
  8. The Next Person...

    Maybe. TNPTP sometimes fantacizes about being an evil dictator (or if on PC then disctator).
  9. News is that MS have fixed this, including XP. Quicker than I thought it would be. Is it really impossible to run Chrome or Firefox on Windows in the US? In my experience it wasn't...
  10. Executions by lethal injection.

    Agreed. It's like the mass apologies and pardons given out by the post WWII German Government, it doesn't make an innocent's death corrected. I am opposed to all killing of human beings in any situation except where there is no other option (e;g: Hostage Situation, Mass Terror Attack).
  11. Microsoft are (on PCs) forced to allow an alternative option. They do not have to have it preinstalled, nor must they advertise this feature. They only need to allow the program to run, and most things run on x86 Windows anyway.
  12. The "Why?" Game

    Because Maxis loves casuals. Like, really casual casuals. Why is 1080p called 1080p but 2160p called 4K?
  13. The "Good News,Bad News" Game

    The bad news is the only word she knows is "swagalicious".
  14. @Occram, you have the wrong idea. It is not illegal for a user to only have IE installed, albeit not a good idea. I use an old version of Safari, very safe if a bit slow.
  15. Executions by lethal injection.

    http://t.co/5otvz1RUAf It is estimated one in twenty-five executed criminals in the US are innocent of the entire crime. Death Row exonerations are another great reason to cut off the death penalty. For those saying "kill 'em or it costs a lot", housing a prisoner for life will always cost less than an execution due to the 7 appeals and the expensive trials and drugs. And if your ridiculous government cut it's military budget, then maybe you could afford to pay off your massive debts and feed your citizens. But socialism is bad amirite? If the US cut its military budget by 85%, it would still have the largest military budget in the world. Your country is paranoid of a threat that exists, but is nowhere near as deadly as the US Propaganda pretends. Military bases in South Korea and Germany, illegal listening posts in the US embassy in Switzerland and Germany, claws in every corner of the world that are pointless. Sorry, rant over.
  16. This Winter is Relentless

    The winter was OK. There was never a perfect day of cold and sun with plenty of snow. The reason I'm annoyed it is snowing is the ski season is over.
  17. The "Good News,Bad News" Game

    The bad news is the dream is an omen of terrible things to come.
  18. The "Why?" Game

    Because you aren't paying enough. Why does SC4 only run single core?
  19. Simtropolis Religion Thread

    I think Nonny is actually God The Utterly Indifferent and He thinks Earth is one big feature-length drama repeated over and over with different characters, a different setting but the same plot.
  20. Microsoft took part in this and are producing a documentary on it. Cool, I'll watch it.
  21. The Next Person...

    Yup. TNPTP doesn't know what "discombobulate" means.
  22. The "Good News,Bad News" Game

    The bad news is, uncontrollably, Barack Obama appears in your dream and starts rapping to "They See Me Rolling" while clockwork robots attempt to maim your girlfriend/boyfriend/crush/best friend/wife/husband/partner.
  23. This Winter is Relentless

    It's raining here and snowing over 2500-3000ft. -_- thanks Switzerland.
  24. Russian expansionism in eastern Europe.

    Stalin died in 1957 if I remember correctly and the Gulag was wound down and shut in 1960. Are you saying the removal of the Gulag and Stalin's death HARMED Russia?
  25. Executions by lethal injection.

    Where do you go? The only unclaimed territory on Earth is between Egypt and North Sudan (or Antarctica) and no government will have you. And what if a government will have you, and a murderer lives in comfort in another land?
