As we all know, correlation always means causation.

That's a shame there aren't any players any more.
I'm a patient gamer, too. I almost never buy games at full price. But I try to strike a balance with online(-ish) games. Some experiences you just can't have once a game with an online aspect isn't popular anymore.

Dang, you're patient. I played this back on PS3. Does it even have online players anymore? They are an integral part of the experience, IMO.

Weird, they mentioned Subway and TGIF, but not Burger King.

Still a hippie, I say.

We like putting things into boxes. It simplifies things. It's easier to put things into objective boxes in math and physics, but the further from those you get, more subjective these boxes become. Biology is almost entirely subjective, we just draw a line in the sand where it suits our needs (at the time) the best.

Again, we can't even begin to speculate on what we'll know in 1000 or 10,000 years because it's so far beyond our current understanding. Practical time travel might be discovered. Or maybe we'll learn how to extrapolate the path of any number of particles all the way back to the Big Bang and effectively learn all of the past.

We can't be sure of that. Maybe we will constantly be approaching the truth and never reach it. Or maybe we will just figure out every rule governing the quantum physics and extrapolate all the macro physics. Who knows.
Maybe there are meta physics responsible for creating our physics. Like, laws governing the creation of universes with different physics in each of them. Maybe it's meta physics all the way down...

Scientific method is the best tool we have to achieve "pure objectivity and truth", but it's not perfect. The primary point of failure being application of it by extremely subjective creatures.

Seems to me like the OP was fishing for attention, negative or otherwise.
