    XCOM: Enemy Within

    Heavies aren't that great outside of explosives, can't hit shit. Though, you can eventually carry 3 rockets and 2 grenades, so who cares? Do people not care about weapon fragments, or does the game just give you too much anyway?

    XCOM: Enemy Within

    Yeah, late game it's no problem. My guys rarely get wounded now. Most of the time I run 2 assault/2 supports/1 sniper/1 heavy. The 2 assaults/2 support really work well together so I almost never change that. It if weren't for HEAT ammo and fucking cyberdiscs, I wouldn't even use a heavy...

    XCOM: Enemy Within

    Never played XCOM before, so I've been enjoying EU lately, well worth the $10. My only gripe is that wounded soldiers REALLY hurts early game. Nothing like the enemy getting a couple lucky shots despite full cover and now half your team is riding the pine for the next mission. I love watching...

    Can I have your monk's axe? I wonder if desocketing marquise gems removes BoA. Oh, haven't seen this discussed here yet: That was datamined on Friday. If true, why kill off life steal? With a lot of skills gaining scaling based on LoH(or adding TO LoH), I thought they(LoH vs LS) could...

    Your son(and people his age) is not the prime consumer of vintage cards. My guess is that people caught on to the potential for baseball cards and there's a glut of supply.

    Sure, but none of that means they put love and care into their product. I would expect at least something better than old Kuros.

    What love and care? They bought Pioneer's patents and made panels some still consider inferior.

    No offense, especially with some of the other foods you've cooked in the thread, but dry turkey is all on you. You can brine it beforehand as a safety, but wife still cooks white meat turkey that is moist without brining.

    I shy away from Alton's one-recipe episodes and I'm pretty sure that was one of them. Classic example is spending a whole episode making Bolognese. I didn't necessarily think you'd use Campbell's soup, but I partially dislike the recipe particularly for that origin. IDK, I'd like to think...

    I don't know the intricacies of GPS either. But if your phone can communicate with orbiting satellites, but mine has reception problems with towers just miles away, I'd be very surprised.

    That's Google Now draining battery as an app keeping the phone awake, not because the GPS radio is on. Think of GPS, how can that drain that much battery? It's one way communication, it doesn't even transmit. Because GPS is on, I'm guessing that Google Now sees it can poll location much more...

    8 hours of idle time is horrible, even with LTE enabled. Something is keeping your phone awake when it should be asleep. Apps and bad reception can both do this. Rooting won't affect battery life. Custom ROMs can, but it's usually very minor. Vaclav, GPS will not drain that much...

    Oooh, thanks for reminding me. Roasted veggies, specifically green ones, is a really good side dish. I like steamed broccoli well enough, but like green beans and asparagus, it's really easy to go past the perfectly done point. And since my parents are British, I got mushy steamed vegetables...

    You can get an extended battery for the VZW gnex, using one right now. 7.77WHr. LTE is a battery hog on this phone. The LTE modem is on the 40nm process instead of 28nm process just about every phone afterwards got. This means the LTE modem eats a significant amount of power, even just...

    Just pop open a can of fried onions, that's the part you want anyway. Well cooked green beans are really good too. Lightly steamed with some salt and pepper. Akin to asparagus preparation, and both are easy to fuck up.

    Nexus 5 + straight talk is the route I am going to go. Coverage is important for me since I live in Ithaca, so that eliminates Sprint and Tmo. If you can get around on just those shit networks most of the time, quite jealous. Verizon does have a straight talk plan, but they don't allow any...

    Really really easy to overcook green beans. That's only way green bean casserole works, you overlook the mushy beans because they are surrounded by yummy fried onions and cream of mushroom soup(if you like that shit).

    Your something new is to not cook green bean casserole. Disgusting shit that should offend your cooking sensibilities. Might as well make hamburger helper. I like cranberry relish. Actual relish. Not that shit in a can, that's jelly. Not that cooked shit that ruins the cranberry's best...
