    Scalpers take things a step further and steal the truck delivering Splatoon Amiibos to GAME

    Amiibos are already pretty fucking hard to get hold of. Guess they're gonna be kinda impossible to get hold of now. :I

    For a brief moment I thought Splatoon Amiibos was the name of an actual team, and I thought that was amazing that scalpers had just scalped an entire team

    "Huh, so there's no teams left to play your game tonight ? Well I got this one team here, but it's gonna cost ya..."

    I've tried to be upset by that, but everyone in the story is being so friendly and good-natured, scientists and creationists alike, that I find it impossible.

    Due to a recent change of a law from 1615, it is no longer legal to kill Spaniards on Iceland.

    Dug up an English article.
    A memorial dedicated to the 32 Basque whalers who were killed in the West Fjords in 1615 in what’s known as Iceland’s only mass murder was unveiled in Hólmavík, the West Fjords, on April 22, the last day of winter. At the occasion, West Fjords district commissioner Jónas Guðmundsson revoked the order that Basques could be killed on sight in the region.

    “Of course it’s more for fun; there are laws in this country which prohibit the killing of Basques,” Jónas told mbl.is. When asked whether he’s noticed an increase of Basque tourists since the order was revoked, he responded, “at least it’s safe for them to come here now.”

    Isn't the Australian wildlife being destroyed by a plague of house cats that were brought in to kill a bunch of bunnies? I remember thinking it was especially funny considering how deadly we think Australia is.

    I guess Hitler should have left that country alone.

    Much like Pizza Hut, the full deadly potential of cats was UNLOCKED by bringing them into Australia. It's the country, not the species. The whole country is like a magic crystal that mutates things into the deadliest version of themselves.

    I was pondering how much damage introducing squirrels could do, but then I looked it up and it turns out they already tried it and the answer is actually not very much. Kind of disappointing, in a way.

    Yeah pretty sure that's exactly why that kind of thing is prevalent.

    As I recall the bunnies were the first problem, and then they brought in cats to kill the bunnies, and now the cats run Perth.

    A sensational study about the impact of chocolate on weight loss, published by a medical journal and reported in half a dozen languages across over 20 countries, was a deliberate plot to expose bad science in diet studies, its author said.
    ...
    “That study design is a recipe for false positives,” Bohannon wrote. “The results are meaningless, and the health claims that the media blasted out to millions of people around the world are utterly unfounded.”
    ...
    The next step was crafting a seductive press release, filled with carefully chosen buzzwords like “flavonoids” and “bioactive compounds” while carefully avoiding any specific claims aside from the vague notion chocolate was beneficial.
    ...
    “The key is to exploit journalists’ incredible laziness,” he added. “If you lay out the information just right, you can shape the story that emerges in the media almost like you were writing those stories yourself. In fact, that’s literally what you’re doing, since many reporters just copied and pasted our text.”

    Quoting from another thread because it's awesome.

    So the actual cause was poor design.

    Cats are tiny Hitlers. They are nasty and genocidal and adorable and fluffy and have problem wiped out more species then anyone but humans at this point. You bring a cat to a remote island and it'll wipe out half the species there just for kicks.
