    The Astronomy Thread

    A lot of these assumptions about the inevitability of contacting another interstellar race are also assuming that technology will at some point allow 100x ftl travel or faster, which would be necessary to travel any real distance on the galactic scale. I don't assume that our current...

    As long as he doesn't write any of them, because his eldar books are among the worst 40k books in print, and that's saying something when you consider that C.S. Goto and Henry Zhou also write 40k books. Just finished reading Blood Pact and Salvation's Reach, I really feel like Abnett is...

    Props to JDS for being smart enough to back off when it was clear Hunt wasn't ready to be finished. Very exciting so far.

    black islamist beheads British soldier in London

    Cause I try to avoid starting things I can't finish. Real answer: Because I'm not actually so much of a fucking retard that I hold an entire group responsible for the actions of a vocal minority.

    black islamist beheads British soldier in London

    What I've taken from this thread is that it's perfectly ok to judge an entire group of people because of the actions of a vocal minority. Which is fine by me. From now on, I want to personally murder every Christian in the world because as far as I'm concerned, they are all the same as the...

    Was the year your review said you were 'component' the same year they asked you to spell the word 'competent'? Aside from that, it sounds like you were in shock during the meeting and didn't really defend yourself, so you may want to arrange another meeting with HR and explain that these were...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah, I did it as a barb, no bunny hopping WPs, no super luck with drops, little bit of AH luck but that's it. I was definitely undergeared for it, took a few hours with a break in between. Got him almost immediately after I took the break, just needed to clear my head and relax I guess.

    I was supporting him until he started babbling that moronic bullshit about HURR DURR STOP LIVING IN A PLACE CALLED TORNADO ALLEY. Sure, lets just abandon a gigantic chunk of US farmland because there might be a tornado!!! By that logic, we shouldn't allow anyone to live within 50 miles of...

    A watch just means a storm system capable of producing tornadic activity is passing through the county. A tornado warning means funnel clouds or tornadoes have been spotted in the county. Tornado watches are not uncommon even here, two states east of tornado alley, I imagine damn near every big...

    I'm a ways east of tornado alley, but we still get tornadoes in central IL. The Tri-State Tornado was the longest (and until 1989 the deadliest) tornado in modern history and traveled through Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana, far to east of tornado alley. Yeah I'm not saying the weatherman was...

    Yeah because watching a piddly shit F0 or F1 from a country road is the exact same thing as being in a large city with a fucking F4 or F5 bearing down on you. You really are a colossal fucking idiot.

    15 minute warning of what, that funnel clouds had been spotted? Have they said anywhere exactly how long this tornado was on the ground? Most tornadoes last less than 10 minutes, F4/F5s can last closer to 20-25 minutes, but that's still not nearly enough time to try and evacuate people in the...

    The confusion is that you are the first person to actually cite Ohio law saying that, prior to that we had nothing to go on but a quote of a DA saying he would try to charge him with murder or some such. Treason or Espionage can both be capital crimes, but the time a civilian was actually...

    Death is the most severe penalty because it's final. There are very strict limits on when the state is permitted to end a life, and with very good reason. A man who is exonerated after serving 20 years of a life sentence may still have a fair amount of his life left to live. A man who is...

    Yeah but you can say that about pretty much any state. And it would be a retarded waste of money even if they did come up with it because 99% of those shelters would never get hit by a tornado.

    Here's the damage description of an F5 tornado taken from the old Fujita Scale article. They now use the Enhanced Fujita Scale to rate Tornados, but the only real difference between the two scales is estimated wind speeds which is lower on the EF scale, but the categories are still entirely...

    Yes, every single school anywhere in the midwest should have a shelter capable of surviving a direct pass over from a fucking F5, just like how every single school needs armed guards and every square inch of coastline should have a 50 foot seawall to protect from Tsunamis.

    Generally speaking, the most recent releases of the older final fantasy games are all on handhelds, so GBA/DS, although I don't know if they did a handheld FFV. The playstation releases are just direct ports, the handheld ones are usually moderately improved games.
