First of all, DOOM isn’t raycasted. Second of all it’s 3D in the sense that all objects have xyz coordinates and can move in that space. You can miss the monsters by having a rocket go over their heads. The main limitation is that the levels couldn’t have more than one ‘room’ per vertical space.

The rendering can still be implemented as polygons (making it true 3D rendering) whilst still maintaining the same level-based limitations, as we can see with DOOM 64.

Please tell me this is satire?

The brain is still one organ? Unless in such situations where a person goes in and physically cuts the corpus callosum, the brain functions as one organ.

1. For whatever reason, and a reason will come, typing out those extra characters will be an extra pain.

2. Stupid choices by services (like Vanguard!) making those extra characters a liability.

3. What are you protecting against? Even 16 characters with ~60 combinations is more than enough entropy.

4. It’s just cumbersome. And that, frankly, is the reason why the question is “why should you?”

Good riddance! His neurotic public harassment of anyone who is remotely aligned against him (cf. Tumblr moderation and AspirePress) is simply childish and leaves much to be desired.

His behaviour has shown him to be unfit to be a CEO.

Mate, it’s a style thing that depends on which style guide you’re following

AP recommends spaces around them, whereas Chicago doesn’t

besides if we’re critiquing incorrect following of English orthography

—Sentences should be capitalized

—The word “don’t” requires an apostrophe

—End sentences with a period

—That’s incorrect usage of an em-dash at the end there — but what does it matter anyways ;)

One can only hope the government has some klaxons stashed away.

Side note: isn’t it crazy how Seoul is so close to the border that you can see North Korea on a clear sunny day? And the aforementioned traditional artillery-ableness of it all because of that?

The funny thing is that the reason for me posting the long bet was looking through previous posts about Cool URLs. It comes full circle!
