    One day left. I can't decide if I want to start completely over or just do a new world.

    How many sneakers you got?

    1 good pair, 1 work pair (the previous good pair). When I play a lot of tennis or basketball, I buy a pair that has extra protection in the toe drag area since I wear holes in that fast. So 2-3. 2 right now since I am being lazy.

    Bro, I was agreeing with you. Wi-five.

    Grand Theft Auto IIIII - HDD City Stories

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but unlike Metal Badass Merlin, Duppin has never posted RL pics that meet the RR tagged criteria. He probably just found pics of some ugly dude with a guitar and posted them so he could be a martyr.

    Whoa Hodjbro, how did you end up in RRP?

    Grand Theft Auto IIIII - HDD City Stories

    Yes, I have a fucking loser branch of my family that has made a career of making up bullshit "conditions" and collecting disability. What's even more fucked is they make up conditions for their young kids and draw additional disability $$ on them. Sure that has no mental impact on their...

    Grand Theft Auto IIIII - HDD City Stories

    So how long are my homies Zyyyzzzyyzz and Adebisi in the clink for? Should I send a care package with some soap-on-a-rope and a slock, or are you about to make bail?

    SteamOS

    You have a point, though I would say it is more of a learning curve than an impossibility. But then again, it's all speculation until we see (and more importantly get hands on) a product.

    Giving the benefit of the doubt here. I've been assured he's a reformed man.

    SteamOS

    Ok. If you read their description, they are expecting that you will use the shoulder and bottom buttons for most functions and as Khalid said, the 4 top buttons for less important functions. Just because you personally don't like it (understandable) doesn't make it the worst thing evar.

    Hmm you bring up an interesting point. I have clung to my slide phone for the physical keyboard too long. I may have to embrace innovation on both fronts.

    Looks interesting. Same beta sign-up as Steam Machine, so if you did that badge you are eligible for both. I'd like to try it out.

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Forced morality?! In my video games?! Fuckin' Obama. So is the general consensus that GTA5 is a worthwhile buy? I was considering getting a 2nd PS3 to stream and game on a 2nd TV, and the GTA5 bundle is looking tempting.

    Shadow Warrior - Remake

    If you just want to revisit the original, it is free to play on Steam for PC. Anyone else play the new version? Need to know if it is worth putting on the radar for the Steam winter sale.

    Girlfriend wants to move in, how much should she pay?

    I'm on board with the "equivalent of renting a room" + 1/2 bills idea. Unless special circumstances are in play, this seems fair and equitable.

    Yes, nearly positive you have to set it to the final (kill Diablo) quest for the staff to be there.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So you bought virtual currency, they come back with "LOL gonna take 10 days to deliver it", and when you told them you wanted a refund because it is taking 10 FUCKING DAYS to deliver a virtual item, they threatened to ban you? I buy physical items from Amazon regularly, they arrive in 2 days...

    The Beer Thread

    Out of curiosity, what kind of beer was it? I've only heard of purposely mixing the yeast sediment back in for a hefeweizen (or possibly other wheat beers). I may learn something here.

    Thanks for the advice, fellas. I'm going to an event with a number of local breweries, so I'll keep an eye out for them.

    No Portland beer advice? Haast is disappoint. FWIW, I've had about 12-14 different brewery's beers at a tasting. Good stuff. This place knows its beer.

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Twins! I definitely took a stat class, though. With a decade past, it's a little hazy. Good question. I would have to dig deeper to do the math for significant sample sizes. I just ran so many iterations that it would unquestionably be "enough". Were I sitting at my work computer, I could...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Fair enough. Here's some advice: do pre-marriage counseling. Ask your counselor to go over the issues that couples find difficult (the ones I mentioned and the ones I forgot), and how to fight fair. If the two of you can get on the same page on the major issues and commit to keeping your...

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Exactly. This is why I ran 10,000 iterations in my simulation. You have to have a statistically significant sample to get proper results. I'm sure that is a larger sample than necessary, but it also runs nearly instantly on my computer, so 0 fucks given on oversampling. Hoss, do you have a...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Eomer brings up a really good point. There are some issues that are relationship deal-breakers. Religion is one. Money/working, kids, location. I'm probably forgetting a few others. You must, and I mean MUST, discuss these things. And make sure you really believe the answers. If she wants...

    You should Ice a friend. The next time you go to a party, put the Smirnoff in a gift bag with an ice pack around it. Give it to the friend you want to mess with. After they open it, they have to go to one knee and chug the bottle. If you are merciful, you will do this early in the night...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    D2 also had plenty of farming and RMT. Loot is currently too constrained in D3, making the AH the most viable upgrade by far. In D2, dropped loot was fine for progression & fun, but trading (and RWT) happened with very rare items or very top-end rolls on items. This is what Loot 2.0 should...

    Grumpus is definitely in a long-shot scenario. The engineer in me would never let that kind of shit happen.

    Grumpus, you are violating the creepy threshold. (28 / 2) + 7 = 21, she's 19. It's science. Life is about choices, isn't it? You can make any choice you want, as long as you are willing to live with the outcomes. To any stranger, it will sound like you are making an extremely bad...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I won't quit the game because they got rid of the AH, but I see why people are pissed. They may be less upset if Loot 2.0 delivers and you find lots of quality, usable items such that the AH feels less important. However, the GAH especially is a nice way to facilitate P2P trades without...

    Bros: I'm headed to Portland soon, and besides maybe punching Tyen and The Nose for great justice, I'm looking to try some good beers and food. I've had Deschutes, Rogue and Full Sail since they distribute widely, all of which are good to great. Can someone fill me in on the local beers I...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So I'll go against the grain and say I'm sad they are killing the AHs, especially the GAH. I traded in D2 and it was a time-consuming slog. The AH isn't inherently evil IMO, it sucked because itemization and (initially) game difficulty made it almost mandatory. Being able to conveniently...

    Then don't switch. Chance for goat is 66%. Or better yet, demand the opened door. And punch Monty Haul in the balls for good measure.

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Still <3 Aray. And for the record, the simulation does exactly as the situation describes. It picks a random door to hide the goat in and a random contestant-selected door. If Switch is selected, it reveals a false door then switches the choice to the remaining closed door. Otherwise, it...

    If only we had the mathematical tools to simulate such a situation. Oh wait... INB4 "it's rigged", "Haast can't program for shit", "random numbers too sharp", "the apparently sentient computer is cheating", etc.
