Actual Gun/Violent Crime Statistics - (U.S.A. vs U.K.)

KnivesOut says...

The problem (as I see it) is that we're conflating every-day street crime (which is statistically more rare than it used to be) with horrific gun rampages (which are statistically more common than it used to be, and obviously more rare than every-day street crimes.) They're completely different animals. Choggie would have us believe that baseball bats are just as dangerous as AR15s. Certainly, statistically, that is true when we're discussing average crime-rates. However, I've never heard of someone bludgeoning a classroom full of preschoolers with a louisville slugger.

As Americans, we have to decide: are we OK with horrific gun rampages a few times every year? Is your right to own a military sidearm or rifle worth the occasional shooting spree? Maybe it is. Maybe that's the price of freedom.

Certainly, absolutely we need to address street crime and the factors that contribute to it. However, its obvious from these statistics that WE ARE. The crime rate has gone down.


And yet the shooting spree rate has gone up.

Windows 8: The Animated Evaluation

KnivesOut says...

The start screen is lame, I never go there. Good news: you don't have to. Otherwise it's a better Windows 7.

@VoodooV the inside shit on Steven Sinofsky was that he quit because Balmer decided not to step down and make him CEO. This is dirt from MS insiders. He also is the one that basically demanded the start screen, so that probably did alienate a lot of people.

Ha I knew it was awesome the first time I pushed forward on the throttle stick, and my mech was like.... vrrrrrRRRRRRRR.

OH YEAH. Good times.

Re your comment about joysticks on Mech 2: the Thrustmaster stick + throttle worked the best because that's what they put on my desk at Activision. The rudder pedals were pretty cool too.

Shopping cart shot out of escalator

KnivesOut says...

@Raveni I see now, indeed, I misread your original comment. Why indeed did it come down the "down" side if it was supposedly going up?

Why, oh why, would someone put incorrect information in a youtube video description? Has the world gone mad? Don't they know this is serious?

Who the fuck cares.

Shopping cart shot out of escalator

KnivesOut says...

You have this cartoonish idea of physics I guess. Try to push a shopping cart onto an escalator, and see if it just sits in one place, slowly turning over... and over... and over.. until someone comes to get it.

No, it's going to rocket down the fucking escalator, bouncing off the steps and the sides, until it goes flying off the bottom killing a small village.

Raveni said:

Yes, which is why it should have fallen down the "up" escalator. Please feel free to continue to fixate on gravity though...
