    I just seen a very horrifying cosplay also pretty tasteless, no one should ever wear that.

    Also the video that went with it was shameful for all involved.

    And just like that you have my attention.

    Big political scandal brewing in NZ right now. Seems like there has been collusion between PM's office and key right wing bloggers over various stories going back to the last election.

    All came out in investigative journalist's book yesterday and it is now one of the fastest selling books since Harry Potter

    What a world

    They should just make up fake news websites like Republicans do.

    No, helpfully it's on a secure drive that is so secure even with the VPN I can't access it.

    It'll have to wait until I'm next in the office. Until then I will blow the fuck out of my whistle*.

    Running a virus scan on this PC and seeing it find loads of them has led to an interesting dynamic.

    My mother has taking to lying like a small child that has been caught in the immediate aftermath of doing something wrong.

    "How did all these virus's get on your PC?"
    "Maybe someone else used it..."
    "You're the only person living here!"
    "It wasn't me!"
    "Did you run a virus scan like you're supposed to?"
    "........yes"

    Any second now I'm expecting her to claim some older kids made her do it.

    So, Sony's upcoming update feature is going to let me borrow and play my friends' games without actually owning them? Holy crap, I'm on board. But how does it work? And what game limitations (if any) are there?

    "How it works is, for example, say, a friend has a game that I don't. I ask them to let me play it, and if they send me an invitation, I can access their PS4 and play while watching the video that is streamed." Said Sony Worldwide Studio big man, Shuhei Yoshida, explaining the new SharePlay feature in an interview with Weekly Famitsu. "You could call it a mini PlayStation Now."

    That sounds pretty damn awesome. While you may expect some sort of limit in what specific games will be compatible, Yoshida assured that aside from games that use the PlayStation Camera, like PLAYROOM, any game that can be played with the Dualshock 4 will be playable via SharePlay. "There is no need for developers to do anything for their games to be compatible with SharePlay." Yoshida said.

    Another feature is that players can save their game data to their own account, rather than their host's. "You can save your save data to your own account, so if you like a game you played via SharePlay, you can buy it for yourself and continue where you left off." Yoshida explained. "Or, if you get stuck in a game, or there's an enemy or stage you find difficult, you could hand over the reins to a friend for those areas."

    Note that because SharePlay is basically the streaming of gameplay between 2 PS4s, it stands to reason that whoever is lending their game will basically be lending both their game AND their PS4. If your friend wants to borrow a game for an hour or so, it means you won't be able to use your PS4 during that time – unless it's to assist, disrupt, or just plain troll your friend.

    ...

    I'm still not sure why MS abandoning their plans with disc based media required them to abandon game sharing for digital games.

    I have really not been paying attention to the news lately, so in my insomniac state I decided to read up on Ferguson.

    That did not help my insomnia.

    New Silent Hill being made by Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro.

    Cautiously optimistic. Silent Hill was my favorite video game series before it went to shit.

    Because Don Mattrick and his team were assholes and decided that if you dont play by their rules you cant play at all.

    There is a reason why he quit so suddenly, he was going ot burn that division to the ground if he stayed.

    Daryl (Norman Reedus) too. I'm pretty excited.

    I just hope you don't need to run around looking for weapons because they break in 2 hits, that sucked on the last one.

    It could have been scary without the nervous panic of "oh god now I gotta find a weapon" all the time.

    These sample questions are just a bunch that I made up that should provide different cases to model when it comes to figuring how to define an "issue"
