Basically what you said previously. It's what you make of it. If you don't like the news feed, don't use it. Or better yet, curate it so that it does become useful. I've removed most of my obnoxious friends from my newsfeed, and mostly it's just interesting articles about mountain biking...

Fucking Russians, man...

Shit, I had no idea he was that old.

What's the best space 4x game made this decade and/or millenium? Stellaris? Endless Space?

Ugh, that one hit pretty close to home, as I had to do the same with my dogbro about 10 years ago. He was giant german shep/collie cross that'd had arthritis since he was fairly young, and it just kept getting worse. Otherwise healthy, but sometimes he couldn't even get off the couch (or on it)...

What's the best space 4x game right now? Stellaris? Endless Space?

Fair enough. I started at his very first posts, and only made it through maybe 5-10 before I gave up. Maybe his more recent output he's toned things down. I also found that he wasn't nearly as funny as he seemed to think he was, did a lot of talking in third person to himself, etc etc. Maybe he...

I really don't see why just using a Steam Link isn't an option for you. I bought one and while I haven't done a serious amount of gaming on it, it seems to work pretty flawlessly. I don't use it much because my TV in my bedroom that it's connected to is a bit too small and far away to play most...

I live in an urban area, and often bike/run downtown. And yeah, you as a pedestrian have to be wary of people waiting to turn right on a red. Especially if they're looking the other way for traffic. I don't think it should be banned, though. At least not in any but the biggest cities with huge...

Yeah, I dumped a bunch of money in to various index funds in late January and early February, and that money in particular is up 15% or so (the Canadian stock market has done very well since that correction). In all honesty, that was very close to market timing on my part, but meh. We'd pulled...

Ah, I see. They could have had NTC/NMC's for the last year or two of their contracts, at most. I don't recall how many UFA years each extension covered.

Yes, Leslie Jones was way too big for anal. And you used the proper pronoun.

As I recently discovered, it really depends on who is involved.

I've mostly had them with ginger beer. Pretty delicious.

Never really been able to touch my toes. Back in junior high our gym teacher would benchmark our performance for pushups, situps, pullups, and flexibility. And I was always terrible at trying to touch my toes. If I'm not cheating when trying to do it, I don't think I can even get within 4" of...

When they first hacked her house and she left, didn't she also say she was going on vacation or at least working remotely from her place out of town? Might be reading too much in to that.

I fucking hate cab drivers. Honestly, maybe 10% of them are actually decent drivers. It's incredible how bad they are, as a rule.

Galaxies and solar systems are mostly empty space. Just because they're merging doesn't mean that stars are slamming in to each other like billiards. It's becoming apparent that galactic evolution involves almost continuous collisions and mergers. The Milky Way has collided and/or merged with...

Faster than light travel, if it's actually possible, is probably centuries away. Who knows? But traveling at significant fractions of the speed of light with small probes is something that we could achieve today, if someone had a spare ten or hundred billion laying around. By the end of this...

Eberle/Hall/RNH all didn't get NTC when they got their big extensions. Looking back it's kind of funny how many commentators shit all over the Oilers for those contracts, but they basically ended up being templates for every other young star that came after them. And they're pretty damn good...

The BMW factory tour and Welt in Munich are very worthwhile to check out. I spent the better part of a day there, and didn't even have a chance to check out the actual museum that's also there. Not sure if they do the delivery thing there, or somewhere else in Germany.

You talking about a Dark and Stormy?

People use manufacturer's drivers, and not just the ones straight from Nvidia?

It does go well with Jack, ice, and a slice of lime.

To make a list, you kind of have to define what "best" even is. From what I can tell in briefly looking at the list, is that it's based upon which games have had the biggest impact on the games that followed and which crossed over from gaming culture to pop culture. Some of the games on the list...

CT, obviously.

Fucking Euro's using cL. Use mL like a proper North American.

Yeah, for sure. The accumulation phase is pretty simple for most people. If you've got enough squirreled away that you've got non-sheltered accounts and the like, then it's probably time to start paying a financial advisor, but only one that's not going to try to shoehorn you in to a bunch of...

That is fucking hilarious.

Nah, I'm just going to post pictures of my banking and investment statements, cars, motorcycles, mountain bikes, sweet condo and so on. Shit is war, bro. Funny thing is, that really is Facebook and Instagram in a nut shell, when you boil it down.

Might be. It automatically parses Amazon links. Here's a wiki instead: Bogleheads' Guide To Investing - Bogleheads edit: Also, if you want a short, free read that covers similar territory, this is very worth look at: https://www.etf.com/docs/IfYouCan.pdf

Cad triggered me at least 3-4 times there. Us single, short, bald, hard working dudes have it rough.

ShakyJake, read this book and never look back: Don't try to beat the markets or chase "foolproof" investment theories.

It can be radiation, or chemicals/hormones/otherbizarreshit: Oncology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sounds like a great strategy if you want to make zero returns. Why Buffett thinks investing in gold is stupid Whatever happened to Rinthea, or whatever his name was? Back in the FOH days circa 2007/8 he was shouting from the rooftops that gold was the way to go, hyperinflation would be here...

Huge amounts of X-rays and other radiation from being so close to the star. Depending on how and when the planet formed, it may or may not even have an atmosphere left. One quote I saw from a scientist that I quite liked: "We used to wonder where we'd first start truly looking for life outside...

Were you in Calgary? I could drive down and give it a whirl. Won't even charge for some fresh squeezed Suave: But seriously bro, that sucks. Sorry to hear.

Fuck yeah, knew I had a rooftop patio for a reason. If I could get weed and pizza dropped off up there, I'd never need to leave.
