2012? Almost 3 years for a tablet ain't bad.

That's cool. Probably not a big deal in the end, but why not hardware decode if you can? I got my Shield TV yesterday, I've liked it so far. Still trying to decide on which setup to use to play local media. ES File Explorer -> MX Player seems to be out. I can manage ES File Explorer...

I agree with those concepts and that's definitely good practice. Wikipedia says magic string is something else entirely: Magic string - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sounds like preprocessor macros in C, which are great when used properly. But, I'm likely still not getting something. How is this a 'magic string' scenario? What's the other way to program this that allows the user to expose hidden functionality?

Never heard of this "magic string" concept. I understand it, but I don't understand how 'Keyboard.DOT' protects against it.

My only guess it that 'foo..' would have looked even stupider. And probably made the compiler angry.

Hoss likes playing the contrarian but he's extremely bad at it. Somehow, someone is worse at something than a_skeleton_03.

Ordered one of those nvidia shield consoles after reading a bunch of reviews. The only negatives that I considered actually mattered: No hardware decoding for MPEG-2 or VC-1 codecs. The native video player simply won't play those files, it's kinda silly. All nvidia had to do was purchase...

Leaked timeline said there was a second expac, but I think it was scheduled to have happened already. Honestly, I doubt it. There's not much they can do to improve the game, mechanics wise, without a huge overhaul. More content is always good though.

If it wasn't for that horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college.

Because your avatar isn't a Gilblin Stalker.

You weren't jerking it in the meantime? Not healthy man.

Ohhh, that does look good. Didn't even know that existed. Hearthstone on my TV is fairly tempting.

Might get the Fire TV instead. Though, I'm not sure why beyond the possibility of mounting an external drive.

Thanks joeboo, but didn't seem to do any good. Now the Netflix isn't working too, likely unrelated. They probably can't support Boxee Box's archaic software anymore. I'm guessing Roku3/Chromecast + Plex is the best solution these days? Both seem a bit outdated, the Roku 3 especially. Is...

Kaju katli? Did you try it? Very bland.

.<insert Stonesplinter Trogg attack sound>

Anyone remember the voodoo rituals you have to perform to get Boxee Box to see Windows 7 shares? The Boxee.tv forums used to have tons of information on this, but that site is gone now. To be specific, I can see the share's directory, just can't access the directory listing.

Gotta draft with the meta in mind. If the meta shifts toward early game, maybe you should take that river croc instead of the stormwind champion on your 25th pick. Though, I don't think a shifting meta has that big an influence on exposing shitty drafts. You should always draft hoping to...

More cards to lessen the chance of drafting things like holy nova, consecrate, and flamestrike is fine by me. The last one is a huge pain in the ass the play around. Though, I don't know why you're implying that the overall quality of the card pool has gone down. Sure, dragon synergy is not...

So I bought one of these over the weekend:RouterBoard.com : RB951G-2HnD Has a ton of features I'll probably never use. But it was cheaper than an Asus N66U and I'm not ready to switch to AC. Nor am I sure that it's really needed yet. Which leads into my question: I notice that it's 2x2...

6'5" and ~200lbs is on the high range of normal weight for an average body frame.

That's the boring part though, it's essentially a moving turtle(testudo?). Any map, or game for that matter, becomes boring when there's essentially only one choice for tackling a problem. Where's my lightning team comp that blitz the map and punches them in the mouth? Oh, I've got this map...

I agree with gavin overall, though maybe not for the finer details. The mechanic for revealing alien positions was often too dangerous, thus resulting in an injured veteran team member. So now you either play the next mission with a handicap(rookie) or you save scum to prevent your experienced...

I wouldn't think 130 would be high enough to break down collagen into gelatin, which seems required for a cut like brisket.

Certain gear only drops from T1+.

Deepthroat is definitely in some flashbacks. Smoking Man died in the final episode.

When did they bring back Deepthroat? Smoking Man is dead, there is no coming back from a Hellfire missile. Not dieing from being pushed down some stairs quite believable.

Reminds me vanilla WoW where you could message someone certain ascii characters to make their client crash. Character encoding has to be one of the biggest headaches in programming.

Mr. X is dead too. And I want to say Krycek died too.

Blumpkin is like entry level stuff.

Was playing for a while yesterday, didn't see any agro decks. Still finding it hard to improve my average over 4.5 wins even though I'm play more arena via Europe and Asia. For instance, I thought I did pretty well with this deck considering the lack of 3 drops: Hearth Arena - Beyond the...

Don't know if swiss will stand up to french onion soup, but if you like the combination, great way to use up a lot of cheese. Cubans would be my suggestion.

No, he fought with his ex wife. Built furniture with his current gf.

Damon Lindelof usually puts a cap on how good a movie can be.

How often does this happen? More and more adventure packs might start to look daunting to new players as a quantifiable barrier of entry. Random packs is random, so you can't put a finite dollar amount on how much it would cost you get a good amount of cards from vanilla and GvG. I wonder if...

Most of our testing is automated. We might have an advantage because using our product can be automated(static analysis). Part of my job is to monitor those results, investigate failures, and write bugs for devs. This is the boring part. I do like working on the code for the test system though.

This movie's soundtrack, at times, made me want to play Mass Effect again. Good movie, just disappointed how light it was on the actual science stuff. I thought this was a good way to tell *a* story. Maybe a story about a manipulative captive(and captor) with a little twist. But a story...

You outsourced your QA? Honest question, how common is that?

What's the alternative though? It's even more inefficient to have them comb through your code to understand how it should and should not work.
