For cheese fondue, what should I put in the pan to keep the cheese from sticking, olive oil or red wine vinegar? I've cooked a fondue at home before and can't remember for the life of me what I used in the pan, but I know it was one of those two things. I'm guessing either would work due to the...

Not many things bring me back like a Pokemon. There are a couple I never got back in the day so now that I've got a 3DS I went for them. Lot of people fondly remember their High School time for the dances and football and parties. I remember it for Pokemon because everything else fucking sucked...

Fun Fact: I've never actually looked at any Tifa/Aerith pr0n. I'm just very aware that they give each other bedroom eyes nonstop in this remake and I'm wondering why that is. Also I'd like to see them officially shack up because I hate Cloud that much.

Does anyone know how in the flying fuck you talk to a real person at Ebay customer support? Two months ago I bought a bunch of Pokemon games that turned out to all be counterfeits. They're outside the return window because I didn't find out they were counterfeits until this week. They should...

More of the Mutual Admiration Society Seriously though, either the idea is they're gonna shack up later in the trilogy, or the devs want people to think they are, or the devs are just totally oblivious.

I'm interested in what the "sinister undercurrent" is and what things are found that are best left forgotten. All the Atlantis discussion is on my brain. What I'm playing: Ys V - Sand City of Kefin for the Super Famicom (Japan only). Translated ROM. Only Ys game I never played before. It's real...

They really do, every time one of them needs to be helped up or something, the other one does it instead of Cloud. He is barely even present in comparison: Also check out the way they look at each other all the time: Seriously, find someone who looks at you the way Tifa and Aerith look at...

Well this just became my #1 awaited game this year. I hope it isn't blisteringly difficult like some of the other ACs were and is more of a fun blast-a-thon.

Human Plus was kind of key to getting through AC1, and I think you could bring it with you into the PS1 sequels (Project Phantasma and Master of Arena) which gave you a distinct advantage in those versus playing them by themselves. Basically it was worth playing the whole trilogy in succession...

Didn't know that. Probably because no guild I'm in ever seemed to have any enchanters past like, SoD...

Rydia never makes it. In the 3D version you can farm Silver Apples at Mt. Ordeals pretty easily and bump up her HP a lot which is nice.

I think the most egregious cultural grafitti I've seen in the last few years was what Kevin Smith did to He-Man, bringing him back to be a pathetic loser while all of the actual heavy lifting was done by a super-masculine woman with bigger muscles than him (who was the real star of the movie, of...

Since you brought me up, I'm in shape (though not as much as 5 years ago) and I've been with my share of women (though not nearly as many as I wanted to). Also I have no beef with this movie. Ya dingus. It's actually super interesting that Barbie is more popular in red states. What I'm taking...

IMO Enchanters are OP up until around OOW. Granted, I would take a Ranger over an Enc for pure damage output in Luclin or PoP. However, Cragbeast pets in GoD are hard to beat on DPS. Yeah, their zones of effectiveness are limited in GoD, but they're still OP in those zones. OOW+ I think the...

I don't think we're grasping at straws, we're all just speculating and trying to put 2 and 2 together. To me, trying to definitively say the Richat Structure is "nothing" or that there wasn't a lake up there is waaaaay more short-sighted than speculating on trade routes of a 12,000 years ago...

The Nile curving west is super interesting to me. It does have a natural western curvature even today that they could have been exaggerating, but not pronounced to this sharp <90 degree angle and not extending so far west. Depending on how far west that actually runs, there could be all kinds of...

I believe the maps say "Atlantae" on the Richat area, not "Atlantis". I could try to dig them up. I don't think I've seen "Atlantis" in anything pre-modern. Atlas "holding up the world" adds a new wrinkle to this whole thing. If the city was an ancient capitol and existed on a high plateau...

Yeah Plato mentions it, plus it's kinda the entire claim to fame of the place, "the ringed city". It had 3 concentric rings with moats between them and limited bridges between them. AKA a very good defensive position, if it was someone's capitol. A large engineering project even by modern...

There are several old maps that refer to the mountain range as "Atlantae", or have a lake depicted there with "Atlantae" near it. I've seen them too and they're a big question mark. As for Atlantis being a coastal city, maybe at the time that WAS the coast, and another landform pushed against...

Not so fast.

"How did Richat survive a cataclysmic flood?" "If there were anything there, there would be stuff to find at Richat" Those things kind of answer each other. Whatever there was to find could have been completely scoured away. The rings (raised and indented) remained because they were massive...

Any number of things could have caused the Great Flood. A meteor might have landed in the Atlantic or Indian oceans. There might have been a polar shift, which is kind of like having a full bathtub on wheels come to an abrupt stop. The Mediterranean might have been involved. We really don't know...

What's the highest elevation lake in the world now?

They really should though. Their other choices are pretty bad.

If I had the time machine from The Time Machine, of all the places in the world, the one I'd wheel it over to is the Richat area. Park it on the mountain overlooking the area, and start shifting back in time until I found the point where it formed. Just to answer this question. Would be pretty...

Probably something like that. At the time Northern Africa was getting large amounts of rainfall and had huge lakes and rivers. Was also probably the location of the "Garden of Eden" in terms of being a lush place where modern humans were known to have "originated from" earlier. Then they had a...

As a noted player of retro video games, it's crazy how much of this Ancient Civs, and specifically "12,000 years ago" stuff pops up in RPGs... from the 1990's. There are a bunch more but I'd be here all day. The really weird thing is that some of these were made before mainstream science...

I would think that steelworks like skyscrapers would at least endure somewhat over a long time, but I'm probably wrong. Stoneworks are incredibly important, and our statues (that we're so eager to destroy) are going to be the only thing future people have to study from this era 3000 years from now.

What I'm most interested in finding out about at this point: Who built the 3 Great Pyramids, WHEN, and how? Modern tech couldn't have built them. As I understand it, the ancient Egyptians (circa 200 BC) didn't know who built them either, they were already ancient artifacts at that point. Do we...

Whoa, is this movie anywhere near as bad as Critical Drinker makes it sound? A two hour mean-spirited men-belittling session? I kinda feel like this is more accurate. Critical Drinker is usually good with his assessments though. So is this an old fashioned battle of the sexes, or a Modern...

Have what's probably a dumb question: I have one of those 5000 BTU GE air conditioners Best Buy always has stacked up in huge piles. It barely cools off half of my living room so I guess I should have gotten the 8000 or 10000. I don't recommend this one, it's just too weak. In any case, there's...

The current most widely-used world map is completely wrong and distorted. It shows the northern hemisphere as twice the size of the south and it shows Greenland as being nearly the size of Africa, Sweden as being the length of India, and so on. I can still use this distorted, wrong-as-fuck...

Yeah I don't care if this movie is woke, matter of fact this is one of those times where it'd be appropriate. It's a very different thing to subvert a beloved franchise and turn a strong male role model into a weak bumbling oaf. This isn't subverting anything, it's just being what one would...

My main questions for Anna Paulina Luna are 1) Are you single? and 2) I love you

When a lot of these maps (from different people and even different centuries) sync up, we can assume they're based on something. For example a ton of old maps have three big lakes in the Sahara. One is the giant Mega-Chad lake, one is the now-Richat area Atlantae, and the other is...well we...

It's already been posted, but this is a good companion to the other video.

Most interesting Youtube video I've seen in a while. Also, WTF:

That's disappointing to hear.
