I ways love the comparison of the internet between Olsen Scott Card's Enders Game and David Brin's Earth from the 90s. Card thought people could actually change each others mind through well written thought pieces (pffftttt) while Brin basically predicted reddit with that people just wanted to read stuff/opinions they already agree with.

When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.

I post on the subreddit for my neighborhood and most people are nice, but one guy got really mad at me and sent me a lot of nasty messages once because he disagreed with my opinion on a local park. He wanted to meet up and fight me in person because I had said the park was safe at night.

To be fair it sounds like you were making GBS threads on his efforts making the park less safe at night

I didn't play either enough to be able to give a good comparison really. No laser guided missiles or super infrared vision is a nice change though. Infantry actually get to fight in outdoor maps.

In the "post in this thread to have your name and icon changed to a 1986 baseball player", Lowtax stopped doing that with my post. Like he changed everyone before me and then stopped right at my turn. As far as I'm concerned, he deserves what is coming to him.

There were a couple of Jeffreys in that set that I really wanted but I didn't trust lowtax to do what I asked and not just give me a random one.
