They'd suspect us of all sorts of conspiracies, follow us and destroy us.

Problem is, you need these kind of idiots, because once in a billion times, they're right.

Not this time though.

Why would anyone run Origin through Steam? It seems kind of counterintuitive.

there are games with the name origin to my knowledge it could be one of those.

Either that or the person is hoping that if Origin and Steam meet then perhaps Steam will make origin suck less.

Or they simply want to have one launcher to rule them all, which is why steam allows you to add non-steam games in the first place.

Do we really need a lottery because once in a billion times we win? No.
People making those kind of scams and those believing them are idiots, and we don't need them.
People dreaming about these things, but realizing it's not possible YET, but might be at some point in the undefined future are another kind altogether, are not idiots (far from it), and those we need. They tend to write science-fiction, make video games or work in research labs. Or just plain daydream. But they're not wasting everybody's time and ressources into something they know is impossible. They can, however, work towards making it possible, which is great.

TL;DR: people making funding campaign for impossible perpetual movement machines, we could do without. Scientists trying to understand actual quantum physics so we can, perhaps, one day, harness zero-point energy, are awesome.

Why?

It is Prince's fault actually. He has any videos of his songs besides Purple Rain removed for legal reasons. I frequently wish I could chill out with some Prince every now and then but I am always curtailed by the man's greed.

This book I'm reading really makes me feel like writing a living will. But I can't legally do that yet so I just went through the questions and thought about them for a bit. I WTF myself sometimes.

I think his name is 'love symbol' or something. It has no pronounceable meaning in any language.
Dammit Prince you can't be an eldritch abomination to get out of your Disney contract.

It was a temporary name change that has since expired, IIRC. He's now the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince. Or, just Prince, since that's what his name is again.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I was taking me lunch break in the cafeteria and I see a guy wearing a Team Rocket grunt shirt, then somewhere else I see a girl wearing the horns and eyepatch of some character from MS Paint Adventures(I think? I don't read MSPA) and she looked just like them. College is a weird place sometimes.
