    well, if you drop your phone and break it, you are only out the cost of a screen repair and child protective services likely won't be called.

    It all kind of started earlier this week when Comptroller Scott Stringer warned that complaints about rats have gone way up this year, but that “in many cases, health inspectors didn’t follow through on their own protocols to combat the growing problem.” Stringer filed a damning audit of the way the city’s Health Department has failed to “manag[e] its pest control program effectively, even as the number of complaints about pests grew.”

    Troubling as it is that the city is slacking on such an important job, even more troubling is new research done on New York City rats which reveals that those germ-ridden rodents are carrying even more diseases than previously thought. The New York Times reports that after scientists from Columbia University “conducted a survey of the viruses and bacteria in Manhattan’s rats, the first attempt to use DNA to catalog pathogens in any animal species in New York City,” they found that city rats (who, it turns out, are “a lot wilier than rats in other cities”) are carrying around an alarmingly high number of pathogens.

    In what the president of the EcoHealth Alliance calls “a recipe for a public health nightmare,” researchers discovered that city rats carry “plenty of pathogens. Some caused food-borne illnesses. Others, like Seoul hantavirus, had never before been found in New York. Others were altogether new to science.” Cool.

    happy tuesday, fellow new yorkers

    i'll bet the rats have affordable 1960's level rents tho

    there should be iphone protective services

    if you download candy crush saga and spam your friends with invites, refuse to wear a case but keep dropping it, your iphone should be taken away and given to a family that can appreciate it

    i recorded it love how it mixes with the sounds of incoming trains and people talking

    I know we're not talking about backlogs right now but...

    I can't even say I have a backlog anymore. What I have is way too many games that I have amassed and continue to amass, most of which I will never even play.

    I mean it's kind if silly for me to discuss a backlog when I preordered the original Baldur's Gate (yep, with the gold-backed discs) and still haven't played past Chapter 2. I guess that's on my backlog. I mean I would like to play it. I have the Enhanced Edition of BG1 and BG2 and I like the idea of Baldur's Gate.

    But who knows?

    I stopped thinking about my game library as a backlog and more like a treasure room that I can randomly grab shit from when I'm bored. There's no way I'll ever get through my backlog because everything I buy I fully intend to play some day even if it is unrealistic. I mean, if I live to 150 and never buy another game I may not be able to finish all the stuff I currently own.

    I don't even know what it means to finish a game anymore, either. But that's another story.

    I hate the idea of the backlog. Gaming is a hobby, not an obligation. Owning a game does not mean you must play it. I have recently taken to only buying games when I intend to play them immediately (unless I am trying to support a developer). It really helps to eliminate the "backlog" issue, and I think it saves money vs buying games on sale and never playing then.

    I agree.

    I have been watching all these debates on the historical evidence for Jesus's resurrection and it feels like everyone misses the point.

    The majority of people there didn't turn into Christians so doesn't that mean more than if everyone knew where he was buried or who wrote the gospels?

    Maybe I am missing something obvious.

    I have one of those nintendo secrets books!

    It was on my bookshelf and I hadn't looked at it in decades. I picked it up and glanced through it a month or so back. To my surprise, the last chapter is actually a serious look at the snes' brand new games from a programming/software standpoint. It was far too difficult to read as 7 year old kaleedity, so it was a pleasant surprise.

    I don't think it is torture porn, I think it is scary is what he means. I guess maybe it's gory. Gore doesn't do much for me but the reviews I'm reading say it's tense and scary.

    "The Evil Within is a survival-horror masterpiece. Anyone concerned this is just another action game soaked in blood needn't worry. Tense pacing, stunning atmosphere, and terrifying enemy encounters come together to create a journey you may never forget."

    i followed a Serious Eats guide on hardboiling eggs (add to an already-boiling pot, not a cold one... after 30 seconds, reduce to simmer; 11 minutes, then add to ice bath). it was awesome- of the half dozen i made, five of the shells broke in two large pieces without any annoying, time consuming flaking and peeling.

    @organichu I followed this same guide just the other week

    I've always boiled them the full time but this seems much easier
