    Malaysian Airlines 777 Shot Down (?)

    Were all those deleted social media braggings about the shootdown shown to be fraudulent? If not, it was basically the separatists admitting they did it from the start.

    Malaysian Airlines 777 Shot Down (?)

    Then link that other source. The article sounds like a blog post from a conspiracy nut, so again, I'll repeat, "nice source". It sounds as legitimate atm as Tad's favorite source, Fish.

    I'm confused. It is posted on a website covered in articles of conspiracy theory bullshit. Are you saying this article is in legitimate german sources but was just translated there?

    Yeah, that is what bothered me so much about it. I would love to be given time to take my students to something like that. Then again, maybe I should consider doing something like that with my class and get forgiveness if someone complains. Could be fun. Not to pull a Vaclav here, but my...

    No, the definition of "feels" in the context of this thread, is you dismissing all research that disagrees with you because "feels". Remember the whole "they probably have bad R-values!"? Pointing out doubts in things that are done, but not completely dismissing everything that happens, isn't...

    Dungeons & Dragons - New & Old

    My campaign in 4th edition got bogged down by incredibly long battles, with tons and tons of status effects and marks. Hope the combat is streamlined in 5th (not simplified, but made to be faster to resolve). Hell, that is what I thought 4d edition was bringing. It didn't turn out that way, at...

    /raises hand (to having a CS masters) My concerns with the program would be... 1) Changing the curriculum to Python because it is "more forgiving and practical", both of which I don't believe are true. 2) The female professors taking the students to the Grace Hopper conference. 3)...

    Mass Effect 4(Untitled)

    You guys are trippin. I fucked loved ME3. Everything but the ending was gold and the multiplayer was an unexpected diamond. The game up until the very end completely lived up to the hype. I won't let a 10 minute end ruin hours and hours of great times.

    The Zionists are whining thread

    Sure. The point is, as long as Hamas launches rockets near civilians, the Israeli's really don't have a choice. As has already been pointed out in the last few pages, doing ground sweeps for them would cause far more civilian casualties. Asking the Israeli's to just allow rockets to hit them...

    Yeah, I agree Arakkis. Hamas should stop shooting rockets from near civilians.

    The Zionists are whining thread

    Yep, it was pretty horrible. However, it was a horrific accident. What is also horrific is shooting rockets next to civilians in the hopes that the IDF will try and retaliate and accidentally hit children. It is also horrific to move kid's bodies around to make it look even worse.

    Path of Exile

    This is a gross mischaracterization of what we are talking about. I don't necessarily want loot pinatas (outside of cartographers boxes, because not being able sustain maps is retarded), but Rampage seems like it is a mechanic that will fuck up build balance. Also, will be annoying if I have to...

    Way to try and shift what you were saying. Yes, cheating is a massive problem at colleges. However, TO GET A DEGREE DOESN'T REQUIRE CHEATING. Students are not "forced" to cheat in order to simply pass. Now you might have a point that rampant cheating (and professors who ignore or don't care) can...

    I don't understand what this has to do with advanced classes. Just because someone hasn't done compilers before they took a compiler class, doesn't mean they will be lost in it. Just because you haven't done topology before taking a class in it, doesn't mean you will be lost in it. If you...

    Path of Exile

    Well, any of the quick-kill builds will seem to benefit already and the slower more defensive builds will get less benefit. Seems like it is going to throw off build balance by quite a bit. Hopefully more details will come out on it, but I'm not thrilled atm.

    Do you really believe that everyone is equally lost in advanced classes?

    Path of Exile

    Yeah, I kinda feel the same way Sinzar. Also, killstreak sounds like it biases stuff towards certain builds also. Builds are going to be all about maintaining that.

    Huh? That was completely different than paparazzi or protestors in the US. For one, they were throwing rocks. Two, there was a car behind him making sure he couldn't back up. Three, if you stop and they smash your window, you will probably be dragged out of your car and beaten to death. Shit...

    The Leftovers

    Well, if they aren't trying to get us to sympathize with us, then why spend so much of the show on totally unlikable people? I mean, the "horrific" stoning scene and the grief of the people afterwards, seemed designed to do that. Now mind you, I didn't feel a single bit of sadness and was...

    I don't necessarily disagree, but shutting down "showoffs" in class is pretty basic fucking teaching. So having a huge initiative and stressing that seems somewhat weird to me and makes me think it could easily spill over to just stopping any enthusiastic participation.

    Way to basically Godwin up the argument Mist. Yeah, having some qualms about this program is clearly the same as science supporting slavery. Also, while I shouldn't have to say it, Progressivism isn't change for change's sake. Not all change is good. I'm not going to stand athwart history...

    Well Tanoomba, I think you are taking an overly flowery view of what went on. For one, they did segregate by sex. For example, talking about the female professors taking students to see the Grace Hopper Conference. Also, while its possible that the teachers simply shut down people showing...

    The Leftovers

    The other problem is the GR are fucking horrible people. The show spends 40% of its time covering characters that in RL would be in the Westboro Baptist Church. No one is going to empathize with people going around telling others to fuck off, stop caring about their family and stop grieving for...

    So because Hamas is shooting rockets from near hospitals and civilian areas, the Israeli's should be really stupid and naive and do ground sweeps in an urban area? I mean, lets be honest here. If they did that, the instant some mistaken shots happened you would complain that if they were...

    The other issue I had was them saying "The female professors packed up the students and took them to the annual Grace Hopper Conference, which bills itself as a celebration of women in technology.

    I don't think they will change too much about auras. It will break way too many builds. Chris Wilson (on the State of Exile podcast) made a big point about "learning their lesson" with the cwdt nerf, saying how they had a noticeable player loss because of all the builds that were broken and...

    Yes, but the context that you were responding to was the six-day war. Which was way way before the cold war ended. So yeah, I agree, today it isn't nearly as clear.

    Not really true at all. Certainly during the Yom Kippur war, the soviets funneled massive aid to the countries attacking Israel.

    The "living peacefully with for hundreds of years" is pretty much bullshit. There were constant pogroms in that area against Jews.
