Really a bummer, I heard it was complications from heart surgery (never a walk in the park regardless). Hard to grow up in the 80s and not be a fan...dude seemed cool as hell and did a great job making some of my favorite characters. Hudson will always be my favorite, but it's so hard to pass...

Thank god I'm married!

Maybe, maybe not. There is already a lot of interest in countries where economies are being wrecked. I could see an aggregate of countries in similar situations enjoy the freedom of a non-regulated, but intrinsically fixed currency. Four Countries Priming Bitcoin Demand Worldwide - Bitcoin...

This is exactly how I look at it. It may all go away in a puff of smoke, but that's why you don't go all in (although had I done that I would be retired now...hindsight and all). I'm sure the initial investors in Microsoft didn't see where that was going either. Which brings up another...

So yeah, I invested in a handful of these a while back and am holding onto them as a hedge in the event major world events cause a dramatic shift in global economy. The hope (for me) would be that a digital currency, like Bitcoin or maybe Ether, end up as the new world reserve. This would...

One of my favorite landmarks from the time I lived in Huntsville, AL.

Crafting is another aspect that is tough to get right. I feel there are some good ideas out there, but haven't seen them put together well yet. I really like the idea of having artisans whose entire gameplay is focused on trading and crafting. This was a neat part of the Ultima Online...

I would compare this to "You're Next". Not necessarily in that they are the same movie (plot differences and definitely not as gory as You're Next), but both were predictable yet I didn't mind so much because I really wanted to see how the movie played it out and cheer for the Protagonist. I...

Yup, so far as main-sequence stars go M-class (red dwarves) last exponentially longer than their larger (and hotter) counterparts. Generally speaking a star like this might be expected to produce stable energy for ~10 trillion years (with a T). The sun will make it another 5 to around 10...

Yeah, having so many so close is pretty nutty. Like a scaled up Jovian system.

So these are undoubtedly tidally locked (habitable zone around a red dwarf is much closer than we are to the Sun). However, I did stumble upon this (after having a similar discussion here a few months ago), and there could be scenarios where weather systems on these planets could work to...

I think I have all but settled on a Golf-R for my new ride. The APR Stage 1 High-Torque ECU and TCU flash seems to be the way to go...3.8s AWD hatchback for $42k, why not!

I want a country that elects people who fairly represent the population. I do not agree that the popular vote in the current election system is the same as the popular vote without it. Voter registration vs participation...trend is down (we are around 60% participation) How many Americans...

With the latest trend in government (both sides stonewalling the other), the 3rd party then becomes the most powerful as they are the only ones getting anything done! It's not an easy nut to crack, but I do think it would be nice to have more people thinking for themselves rather than joining a...

Yeah, lots of John Carpenter and Clive Barker coming through in the trailer. Has my interest for sure.

Definitely has a "Battle Royale" and "Dredd" had a baby feel to it. May give it a peep as a popcorn flick.

So yeah, hot or not, that shit ain't worth it! Drama llama!

Yum yum! Reminds me of a story I read a bit back where this chef was bitten by the severed head of a cobra he had decapitated. Would be a bitch of a way to go. Chef Peng Fan dies after cobra bit him 20 minutes after he had cut head off | Daily Mail Online And yes, I realize that was a...

Yeah, I actually own a 2011 TDI at the moment and the buyback is retarded. I currently have 160,000 miles on it (still drives like new) and had intended on keeping it over 300,000 but they are offering me $16,600 for it. Considerably more than I was expecting to get back and since there aren't...

Jamie Chung sure has let herself go!

Looking at buying a VW Golf-R. Anyone have any experience? Seems like a lot of fun and honestly slipped under my radar as I wasn't on the market for a new vehicle.

If I was gonna go gay, it might be for NPH. Dude has some acting chops and (maybe more importantly) a good feel for roles he can rock out.

For sure, there were a ton of good shows back in the 80s/early 90s. Incidentally, I ran across this while looking up those intros...had all but forgotten about them.

It's the damn truth. I'm on track to retire at 45. I make "OK" money, but most of it has come by not having to buy everything and paying attention to what I do buy. Too often I see people want to make more, but not look at how they can spend less.

Let me fix that for you..."Why can't they make kids shows like this anymore?"

It has Anya Taylor-Joy who I actually feel has done well in the two movies I have seen her in, The Witch and Morgan. I'll probably watch it just for her and McAvoy and the incredible soft-spot I have for horror.

Don't think anyone said it was "good", just that it wasn't terrible. I do concede the PG-13 point though, that was a lame cash grab. It's a hard R universe, no need for them to pussy it up! AVP: Requiem was not the best movie, but did have some amazing violence. I'm looking at you Mr...

It wasn't great, but it also wasn't terrible. My biggest gripes were the super accelerated life cycle of the xenos and the predators all were bulky/clumsy.

Yeah, they were being done by Neill Blomkamp which also has some definite hit and miss potential. If he could get a decent writer and just focus on shooting action (look at District 9 and tell me he wouldn't have made a badass Halo movie!) I think it could have ended up great. The good thing...

It really is sad how much potential this IP has yet Fox can't get out of first gear. Let it go! Full on planetary war with Colonial Marines and billions of aliens. This isn't rocket science!

How You Will Die 97% chance I will still be around!

There is another in 2024 that will come near Austin. I'll probably make a go out to Fredericksburg to be in the direct line (and away from the city lights). The only downside with this one is it will be happening later in the day. NASA - Total Solar Eclipse of 2024 Apr 08

I would go a step further and pay people for content that you accept. It can then be a hobby, but one that you can get compensated for if you are good enough. In the end it is still an order of magnitude cheaper than hiring artist and developers to do this full time and the competition /...

P-38 Lightning? Saw this a few weeks ago, pretty serendipitous and awesome this guy was able to reconnect.

Beer gets me this way sometimes...
