Star Wars: The Old Republic | News, Updates, Developer Blogs Interesting. Level raise is strange to me after so long a delay from Makeb to Revan. Guess it's a way to avoid needing to provide a new Operation at 60.

This guy is another who started out Indie publishing because he couldn't find someone to take on a manuscript outside of the norm and has enjoyed success. It's worth your time to check him out.

Mediots buying that Dez will sit out games. Mediots conveniently forget that once the Franchise tender is signed, no new deal can be signed until after the end of the season. So if he does sit out, he loses money. So if a new deal doesn't appear by July 15th, then he's "stuck" on his Franchise...

Do they? I thought Id still did but was working with Bethesda as the publisher.

Pretty much what I want out of a Doom game. Fast paced, gory, as well as macabre (the part in the gameplay video where he goes and grabs a hand to advance is funny). Loved the crowd reactions to the moments we all want to see, especially the Double Barreled Shotgun.

Putting this on my list seeing as how you guys say it's worth a watch. After Breaking Bad, from which the first season was kind of meh up until that first episode with Tuco in it and then it just gets better and better incrementally, I'm willing to give something at least a full season before...

I'm glad I got my exposure to methodologies at my old job, even though I wasn't really a part of the process. Where I work now, I'm it. Everyone else in "software" is also "it" for their respective areas. I put up a personal little Kan ban board to keep track of shit I've been working on, but...

Grabbing the Borderlands PS season pass pack. Wife and I have been playing the shit out of BL2 (I have 129 hours in it) so this is a no brainer.

If you get Enhanced Steam for Chrome it'll give you quick view of historical low prices. At the moment, GR2 is definitely at the lowest it's ever been.

I compare it to Pink Floyd myself.

FTFY

Dude was also metal:Christopher Lee: The best of his heavy metal career on Spotify

Forget Matt Damon, Kate Mara has the same shitty no-emotion face in everything I've seen her in.

Heard about that this morning. How fucking anal do you have to be as an organization to punish a guy for missing voluntary activities?

Had an amazing late run in his career too. Amazing filmography, amazing actor. Too many actors get afraid of being typecast. He relished playing the bad guy. And he'll be remembered well because of it. RIP

About 100k from hitting the funding needed with 30 days left. So it'll hit it. Latest update has a sweet add-on for the $20+ backers: Emulated versions of the original trilogy with a huge upgrade:

Not that I'm aware of. DF is going for a roguelike approach to content but yeah, feels a bit shallow at times.

Tom Cruise syndrome?

Idiocracy here we come. How does that get past copy editing?

It's specifically used as IP octal separators (firstOctal + keyboard.DOT + secondOctal, etc). Those ain't changing. Didn't know about Magic Strings or Numbers before this but even the best practice research I did on the concept doesn't support something as extreme as this. It's one thing to...

Yes. That's the value. It's useless beyond imagination, and yet it exists.

I cannot mentally fathom the existence of this constant. With Android programming if you need something to have Application level context, you basically create a class that extends Application and throw it in there (more to it than that, but that's the gist). Whoever put together this app decide...

Randomly, in the middle of tracking down a bug, I see references to a global constant named DOT. What is it? Take a guess. It's: "." Yes it's a period. Or a dot. The actual call to it is "<classname>.DOT". It would have taken less time to actually write out "." when necessary. I think I...

As a Cowboys fan this is pretty funny:How Every Player On The Giants Roster Will Get Injured

A lot of companies already do this. At some point it doesn't matter what customers do or say, the money still rolls in so no need to cater to them.

Your 2012 NFC champion 49ers.

Nope. Neb makes a lot more but that's almost a given. He's got 11 products on the shelf. I have 4. It's all about the backlog. Basically, every major release will almost assuredly bring in new readers. Minor releases not so much. Major releases also almost guarantee all previous buyers will...

Wow.

Amazon Smashwords B&N Apple (forthcoming)

Like Khane said, it's just instilled into their culture. Used to be a show on NBC called Outsourced. Very first show they trotted out a plotline of someone who was of a low caste being hired specifically so she could be fired. I have zero doubts about something like that actually happening. We...

I'd be wary if they weren't also throwing their own money back into it. It's one thing for a company to place the entirety of the financial risk on the backers. It's another thing when they share in the risk. That's why I have no problem making this investment 2+ years before I'll see the results.

Yahoo paid $20m for the rights to stream the Bills v Jaguars game in London. NFL doesn't want to pay for sideline and endzone cameras because they'll cost too much.

In-engine footage: If the end product looks half as good...

I'm starting to understand this. ~2800 lines of code in just this one class and the IDE shows 318 warnings. Granted, a good portion is because Google moved away from Apache HTTP so all that's showing as deprecated.

So on a scale of 1 to 9000 what's the trigger level here?

Their scheduling is bullshit anyway. I mean, just as a Dallas example, the fiasco that was the Thanksgiving game was a direct result of them playing the Sunday night game prior. In fact, they fucked up so hard the schedule makers basically went "our bad, that won't happen again". And this year...

They extended the early backer free game period by another day so if you back before 6am PST tomorrow you'll get a copy of either Wasteland 2, Witcher 1 or Witcher 2 when the project is funded.

The struggle is real. I've worked in "creative time" to my daily routine so I can hopefully move forward with more news of this nature. It's not always writing (I started painting my Imperial Assault minis) but over the past month or so I've progressed much further on The Recruit than I had...

Jesus he crushed that thing. Edit: And he apparently hit his double hard enough that the guy who plays the home run music thought it was gone and started it up. Then it hit the top of the wall. At any rate, talk about living up to the hype. Also, I have learned that supertouch is well...

I'll just leave this here. Still some work to be done but it's almost ready.
