... that's not malware. Malware requires the code to do something, well, malicious. "Nothing" is not malicious. That's actually just plain ol' creative control. If the modder wants to replace their code with empty files, they're perfectly able to, if they actually do maintain control over the code. Hell, if they want to replace their code with something that explicitly crashes the game or dummies out content, they can do that, too -- the former of those two might be considered malware, but the latter certainly wouldn't (one of the more oft-used morrowind mods is one specifically preventing one of the game's creatures from spawning). Valve's made it pretty clear the modder has no obligation to provide functioning content, nor to continue to provide functioning content later on, nor to ensure their content doesn't conflict with other content.

Edit: Paid modders on Workshop maintain creative control of their works. If the Cave Story dev decided to give everyone who ever bought the game a refund, he'd get the same response from Valve that Chesko got.

... these two sentences contradict each other. Did you miss a "don't" in that first one?

Remember, Ree: Aliens. The whole thing isn't about preventing crime, it's about amusing the xeno puppetmasters -- crime prevention is just the flimsy cover for it. All questions answered

Two seconds of google says it's some kind of large (and by large, I mean covering most of the southwest US) military drill over here in the states. You can see some info here, and then compare it with everything else google is spitting out if you care to.

A lawful character can sneak attack, but never become enraged or (learn to) sing.

Hey now, that latter one is explicitly untrue. There's no alignment restriction on perform ranks :V

... also, for some really gorram weird reason, apparently pathfinder monks have perform as a class skill? Huh. I guess you could conceivably dual class monk/bard? Level one to whatever point you want and then swap over to the other. I'm not sure why you would, but...

E: Then again, the mental image of a critter that sings about how it's punching the shit out of you is pretty amusing. I could see playing that for the lulz.

You've apparently missed the part where, even with that (freaking remote) possibility, they still manage to outperform every other (current -- this may change once renewables finish taking off) major power generation method on damaging the environment. Remember well that the perfect is the enemy of the good, and that the existence of problems does not mean a thing is not doing really bloody well. The system works better than most everything else, when it comes to nuclear.

You also seem to be suggesting that a for-profit one would do better (Sincere bloody doubt.)?

Why everyone be hatin' on the Sun?

Some of us have the misfortune of having notably light sensitive eyes. Sunlight hurts. Physically. Sunglasses only help so much.

Also it is hot, and the last thing a swamp needs is more heat.

rain rain stay right here
sun don't come back 'till next year
bight skies, stay away
come and play some other day
