    Terraria

    Terraria is the mid-week special on Steam, 66% off. I wonder if that means the patch will be ready soon. A lot of times they put it on sale close to patch time.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Unsigned integer is compiler-dependent, if they really didn't use a type def. So it depends on what the compiler thinks an unsigned integer should be. Since it took "billions" of gold to overflow the variable, they got a 32-bit integer of some sort (~2 billion to overflow signed, ~4 billion to...

    What is all this "gluten-free" shit?

    I know someone who self-diagnosed gluten intolerance and now she won't shut up about it. She's a wretched bitch, so a self-diagnosed gluten intolerance is like the 17th thing wrong with her. However, she's also not a hipster/hippie/health nut. Consensus is she self-diagnosed to buddy up to a...

    Thanks for the suggestions, guys. Rob Roy seems like the next obvious choice since we also happened into a couple of bottles of low quality scotch I don't really want to drink on the rocks.

    Sounds like they may have made lemonade out of lemons. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the AH once they get things sorted out.

    We ended up with two bottles of sweet vermouth recently, and I had no idea what to do with it. So I research the interwebs and found out the Manhattan seems to be the common use for it: 2 parts bourbon 1 part sweet vermouth 1-2 dashes bitters Garnish with maraschino cherry Add contents...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So from theAH updates thread, it looks like they are trying to find (and presumably punish) individuals instead of rolling back. This should be interesting. Anyone sweating their account? I hadn't logged in for the 1.0.8 patch, so I guess I missed all the "fun".

    Death penalties are carried out super-humanely, so life in solitary is probably a worse punishment. Either works.

    Shards of Dalaya

    Others have already summarized the game well. I played consistently for a month or two, leveled a monk into the 50s, then my buddy I had been playing with took a break for RL stuff and we never got back into it. If my gaming backlog wasn't massive and I had the time to commit to playing an...

    J49, just curious if you've searched around a bit and found the RL pics of the dude who is giving you shit. Phaz, I thought dudes who look like Santa were supposed to be jolly. Is J49 on your naughty list?

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    Are you suggesting private school tuition is around $350/month? I went to a mediocre private school for elementary (K-3) because we lived in an area with lousy schools. Just went and checked tuition for it. Currently, it would cost nearly $17,000 PER YEAR for grades K-4. HOLY SHIT. Then...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm with Mahes. While there are things left I could do, I feel like I've accomplished most of what the game currently has to offer. I've played all the classes, equipped them all with decent gear (above average gear in my main's case), ran for paragon, ran for loot, did crafting and uber...

    Why go to prison to do nothing? Drop your job, get into the social safety net and learn to scrape by. It'll be nicer than prison and more importantly, if you ever grow some balls and decide to live, you could actually go out and do something. I remember some guy I EQed with played an...

    North Korea goes full retard

    As you mentioned before, gun-type weapons are simple. You fire a bullet of highly enriched uranium at a target of highly enriched uranium, the two combined reach critical mass, boom. As long as the bullet is traveling fast enough at the target, success is trivial. With an implosion weapon...

    North Korea goes full retard

    Let's assume MB is totally right and NK is ready to nuke themselves to spite the invaders. The best they've demonstrated so far is a 10 kt device, roughly half the yield of the Trinity test. Using Nukemap, a 10 kt blast would do some serious damage, but it wouldn't even level Pyongyang. If...

    TheAegis cruisersseem like a much more likely option. They've been successful in testing. Perhaps they'll get a live fire trial.

    North Korea goes full retard

    This is a very bad decision on their part if they aren't just blowing hot air. After ranting about how they are going to nuke everyone, a missile launch into our ally's airspace could be considered an act of war. Is this the straw that breaks the fat kid's back?

    North Korea goes full retard

    Maybe Lil Kim was trying to say he wants to nuke Fort Hood, which is in the vicinity of Austin. Army deploys from Fort Hood. If he wants to kill some hipsters, Portland is a better bet. He might get some thank you cards from RR if he vaporizes Salty and the Nose.

    North Korea goes full retard

    Incorrect, it worked fine. It lasered rockets out of their air in testing. The problem is that it was very expensive to maintain and impractical for real-world situations (it was a huge, slow, unarmed target and had to be close to the launch sites). So it was (correctly) deemed not ready...

    North Korea goes full retard

    Bear in mind, the best these primitive fucks have demonstrated is 1/3 the capacity of our first nuclear test, which happened in the 19 fucking 40s. Also, their device wasn't a weapon, it was a science project the size of a school bus. It's embarrassing, really. We made devices like that...

    It's too bad we retired that747 that lasered rockets out of the air. Nothing says Fuck You like blasting someone's rocket out of the sky with a giant laser plane. EDIT: added link to the YAL-1 wiki page.

    North Korea goes full retard

    It appears NK is preparing to launch a missile soon, maybe within days. With the tensions high, think we would consider intercepting it even if it is likely a test? And if we did, what happens next?

    Exactly. I thought BW was kidding. "Carpet bombing" works... in the Civ series. In the real world, simply going in and dropping a shitload of bombs, even if you do it strategically, doesn't mean much if you don't back it up with ground forces. You'll never clean a place out exclusively with...
