    Fallout 76

    Hopefully this means they'll take a minute, re evaluate, and make a good fallout game next time. I have faith that they can. They'll have to reverse their stances on modding though. I don't expect they will. But they could. They'll just go back to making elder scrolls games. It boggles...

    Autonomous Systems

    I know they're building them segmented and somewhat flexible. There's a lot of thought that's gone into it. And yeah, deeper is safest. It's the -est there that's a problem. the subway in New York costs a lot to maintain. The maintenance on This one will be even higher, and the volume...

    Autonomous Systems

    It honestly seems like a great idea for somewhere that isn't earthquake prone. Or like a large part of la is built on top of a landfill. musk is a genius and all. But Newton had numerology and tesla believed in magic and shit.

    Autonomous Systems

    I still think they're all absolutely insane. there are reasons no one built a subway in california. of course the middle class flight once the tax bill for upkeep comes due probably WILL relieve congestion on their roads.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    oh. You live in a county that is world famous for shallow gold digging bitches. I revise my previous statements. Still work on yourself, I take none of that back, but youd have better luck in oregon.

    Travelers

    That ended really well. So we'll that I hope they do more seasons. The writing is on point and the casting director s have a good eye. It would actually be neat to see a Dr who type of setup with rotating casts. They could keep those balls in the air for a while.

    Death of a Game - Everquest franchise

    Yeah. Daybreak is about to sell the company at a guess and they just boosted their quarterly revenue to ask for a better price. There was a time when I used to think no one could possibly fall for a trick that stupid. And then Craig McMMO gave Draegun more than 20 grand for rerolled. These...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Autistics indulge in self harm and it's got nothing to do with anything except being autistic. The rest of us have reasons for doing it. Like I said it's not "just go fuck fatties, lol". That's the wrong response for a variety of reasons. The place you want to get to is the place where you...

    Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey

    *inspired by true events. *snicker* I wonder how they're going to make the game interesting. It's an ambitious idea. It'll be a lot of "wander around, find enough kcals or die" and "get sick finding enough kcals, die" and "get infection in your broken toe that you got while hunting for...

    Fallout 76

    So wait, the company handling in game reports isn't sure if there's an essay requirement in ban appeals? Is that what I'm reading? And how would you handle an appeal without a message to go along with it? Calling it an essay is a bit pretentious. But you would have to write some sort of...

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    This years halloween was great, too. Because I doubt they were hamming for the camera. They just got so drunk that they couldn't finish and didn't care. And they edited in the MOST harmlessly embarassing bits. I'm sure there was some political ranting that they cut out... but yeah, they...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It can be a bitter pill. Expectations, lower them. And i'm not saying to just fuck fatties. I'm talking about personally. Accept what is, find the good in it, and either tolerate or change what isn't. Avoid self pity. That really is death. And it's a miserable death. There's so much...

    The Sad, sad, state of MMORPG in this brave new era...

    lots of people moved to monks during kunark, I remember. That class, when twinked out, was legit fun. Bards too. Necro's were losing their status by the end of kunark, and rogs were easy but boring. I even made a twink monk. I also remember it caused twinkloot fights in raids. Which was...

    House of Cards

    He's actually taking life advice from script writers. He really is. He may not have ever had the distinction between life and art, which might be part of what made him a good actor. And the man is a good actor. Maybe he's a character actor, but for a "spacey" type part you won't ever get...

    House of Cards

    I think it's what he intended... it comes off... well, it doesn't come off good. He had a string of movies that in retrospect are spooky. Ususal suspects, where he plays the criminal hiding in plain sight, American Beauty where he plays the middle aged man who fantasizes about jailbait and...

    Pets

    Well that sucks. I usually let them die naturally. It's very very sad, but unless they're in obvious pain I just have a hard time pulling the trigger. I make them a little spot make sure they have food (which they never want) and water (which they want less and less) and spend time with them...

    Bird Box (2018)

    Bullock is one of those rare women like fields or sarandon that stay just as pretty as when they were twenty. more like fields, I guess. Sally fields was cute into her late fifties. And even then only switched to matronly.

    It's normal. He's a boy. I forget the name of it. Detachment or something. He is at the age where he is realizing on his own that he and his mother are not the same person. That's a big idea for a three year old, and one necessary step to forming a distinct personality. the phase...

    I have to imagine the first time your kid says he hates you is a proud moment. well good. He's not a pussy. I'm sure the novelty wears off right around the second time.

    Uhhhhh. Tad lost his grip? Or did the account just get passed around? This is just psychosis. hopefully it's just too much cocaine. The first iteration of tad was a lawyer and a little paranoid, but not so obviously unwell. Cocaine induced psychosis is temporary at least. hopefully just...

    The Outer World

    Bethesda fallout has never been fallout. It has the name and even the pip boy, but none of the soul. The formula is so simple. You lionize the 1950s as an American golden age and set that idea inside a spaghetti post nuclear exchange western. Bethesda was making disaster porn, which is fine...

    I dunjo. I hated d9. The cgi was amazing, the story was insulting and infantile. Outside of the cgi there was one good scene in the entire thing. The c gi really was amazing though. It probably even holds up. And the one scene of the dude being tortured, that felt honest. The rest felt...

    Not an expert. Just saying, if you're supplementing in a way that is permanent and the supplement that you're using is worthy of a ban from the sport... it would make sense that the ban is also permanent. Thanks for playing but not all lines can be uncrossed. It's an inconsistent policy at...

    What in the holy shit is wrong with Ellen DeGenere's face? I guess she got some surgery or something. She almost looks like an elf from the Classic Rudolph stop motion. These people seriously make some bizzare decisions.

    The Outer World

    It basically looks like fallout in space with a touch of wildstar aesthetic. This one is going in the "will buy at release" pile. It might also be in the "got burned by freebasing hopium" pile, but i'm willing to take that risk. Avalone isn't there anymore, so there's that. He's not the only...

    Short term thinking. They won't grow the sport if they're not consistent about steroid use. That's from the outside looking in. Personally I think they should have no rules about it at all division. If guys wanna roid out and head to Valhalla... let 'em. Now that would be bloodsport, and...

    do we not have anything better than steel? Obviously Elon knows better than me. It seems odd that we don't have anything better than steel. I'd expect some weird heavy metal alloy is all. 3% cobalt 5% tungsten 75% iron starship!
