Atheist Gamers Unite 5 years, 8 months agoFellow Unbelievers,
I’m dating myself here and many may laugh, but…I haven’t played a video game since the days of Galaga, Dig-Dug, Pac-Man, and Rush-‘N’-Attack. The most 3-D, role-playing thing I’ve ever played was Dragon’s Lair. Is there some direction I could go to get back into gaming with just a laptop and maybe a joystick?
Any advice…[Read more]

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 5 years, 8 months agoIMO we (and perhaps the world) has been suffering more than necessary because of 1) unpreparedness and 2) the continuing deficiency of prioritization of more massive testing regimes. Vaccinations and Trump’s actions/inactions make headlines, while our FDA and media lag behind on promotion and deployment of rapid tests.
The precision of PCR tests…[Read more]

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 5 years, 8 months agoI wanted to start this topic a couple months ago, but am finally motivated after hearing today’s possibly wonderful news that Trump has tested positive. If anyone “deserves” to be infected with it, it is He and His Loyal, Denialist Minions. 🙂
I feel, as I’ll bet Bill Gates would who’s publicly predicted pandemics for at least a decade now, that…[Read more]

Meanwhile, Trump is still misleading people (imo) about how we’ve been doing the best testing in the world, “even better than South Korea”, and then mentioning we have a low caseload per capita compared with other countries. What’s misleading…[Read more]

16 April, Trump claimed we’ve now performed more tests per capita than South Korea. Incredulous, I checked, and sure enough he’s not significantly incorrect. (See screen captures of world testing data, below.) It’s a good milestone, but reaching it this late in the pandemic’s history is (imo) a major stain on Trump’s…[Read more]
