Truly a land of boundless opportunity. You can start a chemical manufacturing plant right in your Wal-Mart parking lot!

Bathroom's better apparently.

Daaaaaamn.

It's another one of the many by products of the indie game bubble.

Mmm... no.

Mods and the like are DLC, made popular by PC games of old. Some of the best, like Garry's Mod for Halflife 2, have gone on to be heir own thing.

Indie devs did not (and probably still do not) have the clout to get people to pay for add ons, because they don't have the ability to market their wares as well as better financed devs. You want to kill what little interest there is in your game? Make people initially buy an unfinished product without telling them, and sell them the rest in bits.

Updated turn!

Also my cold/respiratory illness seems to be breaking up! I can go to work again!

... yay.

EDIT:

Turn here!

Well there are also unpleasant chemicals used in the manufacture of solar panels. Also a risk of pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovlcanoconiosis apparently

The risks with those can be minimized though, and the carbon footprint of manufacture transport, use, and decommissioning solar panels is still fucking infinitesimal compared to coal and gas.

"Chinky" is the common derogatory British term for Far Easterners, and I don't imagine racists particularly care if the person is Chinese or not.

In much less unpleasant terms, I'm also under the impression that "Oriental" would describe someone from East Asia, "Asian" is more of an Indian subcontinent dealio, and "Arab" for a Near East counterpart, at least from a UK POV.

Edit: I'm also not really sure what your problem is with the descriptor, Covenant. Looks like you're just upset that American media doesn't identify someone as Muslim, rather than being annoyed they're not being specific enough in describing their country of origin.

I hope you realise that not all Asians are Muslim. Indeed, if we indulge in the level of nitpicky-ness that you are, not all Pakistanis are Muslim, either.

Edit 2: or not. Note to self: git gud.
