Pete Hines and Todd Howard should really get a lifetime achievement award in shoveling shit into the awaiting ears of fans.

Same, DA2 was so bad when compared with DA:O that I wrote off Bioware as a EA skinsuit, from that point forward. The only thing I gave them money for after DA:O was SW:TOR, since a bunch of friends were playing it and 3/4 of development was before EA bought them.

According to the video, it's not released, but the modders he talked to said some of it may not be fixable. Such as it might take hours of tweeking with load order if you want to use more than a few mods, or just outright be impossible if you you don't know what you are doing. If that's the...

In a shocking development Todd's "It's a modding paradise" was a lie. It seems modding is much harder than previous games, leading some old Skyrim/FO4 modders to quit. Also, Skyrim is close to overtaking Starfield in current players on steam:

Is this one of the new castings for the next season of Wheel of Time? Korean Jaw surgery:

On Vivaldi I've had 100+ tabs open for a week or two between restarts on 32gb of memory. The Ryzen 5 5600X doesn't seem to have any issue with it either.

I forgot what the whole hubub was about, but I switched from Firefox years ago because they did something or other. I think they sold it off to a big corporate interest, maybe. I got Youtube working well enough for me on Vivaldi, plus I like Vivaldi's tools/layout (like the crop and screenshot...

Relevant (this guy was a career F14 back seater flying off carriers):

Yea, I used to have PiHole running years ago and it was a bit spotty. At that time it did not do anything for things like the Youtube app on the Firestick, Roku, or Shield. Since I was using one of the "high" security lists, I also had to manually whitelist sites that various people in the house...

Araysar vs. Ambiturner - I'm sure once Brosar wins this award, after years of trying, he will finally ride off into the sunset, to only make 10 posts a day pharmakos vs. Foler - I'll vote Foler all the way to the end, if Amod will guarantee that he will be shawed for a least two month if he...

It's great to see them finally making a movie based on this Steve Martin short:

Larian & BG3 clean up at the first awards of the year at the Golden Joystick Awards (7 awards, wining every category they were nominated for). Don't normally care about awards but it's nice to think that these things might at least sting other studios like Bethesda/Blizzard and their CEOs just a...

Silk is over rated, I prefer linen like any true man of European decent! [The silk process is still neat]

Ironforge is the best Alliance city. Bank and AH right next to each other and the mage guild is a quarter turn around the circle from each.

Looks like a river/lake of magma is below the town:

Too dark right now, but these are supposed to be live feeds:

IMO timeline and multiverse are the same thing for how Marvel uses them in this regard. "Multiverse" would describe each branch as it is happening (moving through time), while "timeline" is the entirety of time in that particular universe. Going into a different "timeline" allows them to say...

Wat! It took 4 rogues to kill a level 32? Did they change PvP in classic to be percent based, like retail? I was ambushing level 60 hunters and cloth for over half their HP in Vanilla as a full MC kitted rogue, and I think that continued through BWL all the way to Nax. As a PvE server, I think...

If by butt shaped crown avatar you mean Putin in an Asshat avatar, I agree.

I don't think I could sit through a 4 or a 5 out of 10 movie, so if it was good enough to not just walk away from, then it's probably a 6/10. I don't watch movies that are rated that low on IMDB though and then usually read opinions here to filter it even further. This has saved me from...

The quote of mine that you originally replied to was in response to a post by Caliane. Where the DC writers chose 52 as the number of universes in the multiverse, then later doubled that number by making mirror universes of those 52. Marvel on the other hand is using the infinite multiverse as...

On a 10 point scale I would reserve 1 to 3 for movies that have all around shitty quality. Acting like Tommy Wiseau in The Room along with shitty sound production, shitty filming angles, shitty editing, and mistakes all around. While most of your list there would get at least a 4 just because...

I just got through Cardinal and Ordinal numbers, chief. I'm not sure I can make it through to the the exam!

How is a writer choosing some silly low number of universes in a finite multiverse more sensical than them calling it an "infinite multiverse"? I'm fairly positive they are choosing some number less than 1000 when writing a finite multiverse and not 1 to the power of one million, to the power...

This is a conversation about why the Hollywood multiverse plot device is retarded and has nothing to do with how the real world works (mostly).

This is where the infinite shenanigans come into play. Is it possible for Mark to turn into a duck, at least once? If it's possible, then in a multiverse with infinite universes in it, wouldn't that mean there are infinite universes in which Mark could turn into a duck? Without being able to...

This episode was a bit of a snore, btw.

In the scope of the discussion I agree that the multiverse in the multiverse theory, that is seemingly used in Hollywood, is infinite. To be clear though, I do not agree that our singular universe is infinite; as in, there are not an infinite number of stars, planets, or atoms in our universe. I...

Episode 2 up (by at least 7 CST).

How do you know it is unbelievably unlikely? How would you measure the infinite of universes to decide that?

Ok, so there is an event, the result of that event is either Mark turns into a duck, or stays a human. Once that catalyst happens there are now infinite universes where Mark is a duck, and infinite universes where he stays a human. How can you say there are more universes where Mark became a...

Araysar vs. Lightning Lord Rule - Thinks the USSR could have soloed the Nazis, when we all know it was the Italians that gave the Nazis an L. Ambiturner vs. Lanx - I had a neo-nazi car mechanic once, and he was still less racist than Lanx Pharmakos vs. Boozecube - Foler-lite Tuco vs. Foler - One...

Sorry, I guess it's how I was taught to write: First eliminate every first person singular pronoun that you can. Such as trying to minimize writing "in my own opinion" because it should be implied, when not directly siting sources. Second, most disagreements come from misunderstanding the words...

Never claimed to be an expert. My view of the multiverse theories is mostly from watching the Space Time astrophysics videos. They have a whole slew of them on the subject. I took physics and astrophysics classes (both intro level, as electives) in college too, but that was so long ago now, I'm...

When talking about whole numbers, infinity is infinity (I have no clue to explain it any differently). If that is the case, then there is no informed decision. Mark makes one choice an infinite amount of time, or he makes the opposite choice an infinite amount of times. Until I can think of a...

I believe the more "accepted" multiverse theory that physicist talk about only pertain to the laws of the universe. In that each can have a small degree of difference. In one gravity is slightly different, in another, the weak nuclear force is slightly different, in another the strong magnetic...

When talking about infinity all you can do is reduce it down to the underlying choice. There is no 3 out of 4 times in infinity, on a binary choice. Mark is given two options he does one or he does the other, nothing else matters when you inflate the numbers to infinity.

The filtering example is that we are filtering for events/choices. To use real numbers: We have 10,000 universes, 5000 support life, 5000 do not. Out of the 5000 that support life, 2500 have an earth, and 2500 do not. Out of the 2500 that have earth, 1250 have a Mark, 1250 do not. Out of the...

Simply because it is a binary choice and infinity is equal to infinity, in this case, since we are using whole numbers. To try to state it another way, you cant have more infinity of [object 1], than infinity of [object 2], if those are your only two options. In order for one choice to happen a...
