OG with another Ana IO game. These are so fucking entertaining in a clowny way. Edit: Ok, that was fucking hilarious. That's TI9's fountain hook. But better.

One of the best things about Infinity War was that Thanos was a villain with an actual arc and relatable. It made sense. He was an actual character and not just a foil. And I think in Endgame that was lost a bit. Maybe not even a bit, but entirely. He just became a bad guy.

I've never been a big fan of how top heavy the prize money is. I know they want to reward the winner handsomely, but the drop off is pretty extreme.

Oh, yeah, I'll agree with @Big Phoenix on that one. But by nature, SF guys generally know what they're getting into. So the whole depressed alcoholic who abuses VA benefits doesn't apply. But the rest nailed it.

This sums it up pretty well for me. Similar to you, I was never in a firefight, although I definitely had plenty of mortars and RPG's fired at me (had a piece of shrapnel fall above 1 foot in front of me, without a helmet on, that probably would've killed me). Fuck all of it. Not worth it. And...

Just watched The Amazing Johnathan Documentary (2019) - IMDb I loved his comedy growing up (and it still holds up today), and Hulu kept showing it as the first thing that came up. Holy fuck what a disappointment though. It's basically a documentary about how there was another documentary about...

Haven't watched a ton, but EG and Liquid look like fucking shit. Secret, however, seems like they haven't missed a beat all year.

Ironically, the game was just about perfect when it was WT4. It was when they implemented WT5 that they fucked it all up by destroying drop rates. WT4 was a fucking blast. You could actually grind for gear at max level.

I expected this thread to be larger based on how long this show has been on (3 seasons?). Glad most people didn't like it, cause I thought maybe it was just me. Seems like the show just wanted to be a generic network TV Washington DC centered drama, but with a neat episode 1 premise. But once...

Ugh, got so close to my first AT kill with Teostra. These fights are so frustrating.

I want to say that number is like 6 hours in a day. So with our 40 hour work week we're already wasting plenty of time.

Are you soloing the AT Elders, or grouping up for them? I'm thinking maybe I just need to solo them a shit load until I git gud.

For some reason when you said MILES, I pictured MOLLE. Guess I neve actually used MILES. Didn't use MOLLE that much either. I remember it being issued and using it for a while, but we quickly upgraded to some new fangled SOF thing shortly after (SPEAR maybe?). Seemed like SF basically never...

Wonder who she fucked? Look at her credits. She's literally done nothing. How'd she end up writing for the MCU?

Yeah, I've had zero luck on any AT's so far. Shit is just a whole nother level of hard.

Not that I needed the motivation for it, but it does give a good reason to do all the events right now. KT weapons still worthwhile for another 5 months. Been playing the shit out of this still. Up to HR72 now. Got my full Drachen set, and working on all the optionals now. KT only really for...

It's also looking like the last ~30 years or so were a bond bubble and the returns we saw on them were way above normal. They'll still be a decent hedge, but expecting 2-3% return might be the new norm.

I don't understand why this movie exists when the documentary does. How could this possibly be a worthwhile endeavor when it's someone pretending to do what we have footage of?

This is really just a brag at this point, but I got to fly a real F/A-18 simulator. It's an actual cockpit (all the real avionics), surrounded by a giant projector screen. You can legit get airsick in it (the first time I went in it, it was a demo and we were just standing in the room while...

I mean, the legacy F/A-18's have been around since the mid 80's, and the E/F's are about 20 years old. US airframes are all kind of old as shit.

No, they don't fly F-14's anymore. For the Navy it's F/A-18's or nothing at the moment (as far as fighter attack that is). F-35's are still kind of on the horizon but not quite there yet, although they're expected in the fleet any minute now. And no, there are no F-19's or F-20's. Air Force's...

I agree on international. I go with the JL Collins theory that it's 2019, and "American companies" are essentially global already. You don't need more international exposure. If the time comes that it starts looking like the US won't be the dominant economy for the next century maybe I'll...

Yeah, figure I'll just work on getting into tempered monsters and maybe eventually I'll have enough augments to roll him.

Had the same question, and it seems the answer is no. Since I don't know that I'll ever get a shot at beating him (fucker is hard), it sounds like I'm stuck with it forever.

The big thing about market timing is you have to be right twice. You have to call the top and the bottom. I've also heard that "this is finally the top" every single year since about 2011. So good luck.

From what I can tell, none of it is CGI. Like the low fly over the desert in the first scene is a Blue Angels jet. They CGI'd out the desert plants and recolored the jet, but otherwise that happened.

Finally picked this one up in the Steam summer sale, as I had been waiting for a price drop for forever. Already 50 hours in, and now I'm starting to prep for Behemoth. Seems kind of intimidating though because from the sounds of it, it's a bring your own group kind of affair. I'm working on...

Why can't we, as a society, admit that sometimes we're just better off without certain people? This girl was never going to be valuable to society. Just like the junkie who's been arrested two dozen times. Or the pedophile who molests kids. Let's off them and move on without taxpayers having to...

I don't think in the history of ommon law that that argument has worked. "Oh, I didn't know that tubby bitch has a heart problem when I hit her with my car." Tough shit, still manslaughter (or murder in that case). "The random rounds I shot off into the air killed a kid? My bad!"

This seems like a weird example to use. If I'm put in a situation where I feel the need to shoot someone, I'm shooting until they're dead. There is no such thing as "shoot to wound." Similarly, in this circumstance, how do you know the guy isn't a threat anymore? Are you just going to assume...

Getting shaky again. I'm thinking the big one will likely hit today. Possibly in the next hour or two.

Neat That Big California Earthquake Left a Scar That's Visible From Space

I just don't think the USGS has any clue. This Dr. Lucy Jones talks a good game, but she seems to just use probabilities a lot and not actually analyzing anything. For instance, the USGS put out their statement of "what they think will happen next."...

I do want to point out that he predicted a 4.5 this morning between New Zealand and Indonesia, and they got a 4.6 a few hours later.

That's cool and all, but man she's brave. Same reason I don't trust pitbulls. It just takes one slip up and you're fucked.

One of my coworkers sent me a link to this DutchSinse guy (he's on YouTube and Twitch under that name). He's been saying the USGS is full of shit and that earthquakes on the other side of the planet absolutely flow to other areas (basically force on a plate in one area will transfer to other...

Yeah. I told my wife it's probably the same with why they told us not to turn our gas back on if we turn it off ourselves. Someone will screw it up and blow up their house. I plan on running outside if there's another big one.

Yeah, I grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore and DC. Every time I've visited since joining the military I've hated it.

I had a hard time finding a job. After 6 months, I had two offers; one in DC and one out here. I picked here and she followed me out. We've both got good jobs and were just hoping to last another 1-2 years before we're done. This will likely expedite it. We lived in a very conservative area of...
