The Flash we have in this show is essentially Wally West with Barry Allen's backstory of being a police scientist. Barry Allen was killed off in 1985 and only relatively recently came back from the dead, so most of what people would consider modern super hero storytelling and characterization...

That was a nice touch. Obviously being gadget-based villains they will need a steady supply of such gadgets in order to keep going on. It will be interesting when one of the metahumans or other clearly super gadgety types shows up in Star City

Its basically a shaved roast beef sandwich on a kaiser roll that has been covered with caraway seeds and pretzel salt. Often is served with mayo, pickled peppers and sometimes cheese. Mostly its the accent of the caraway seeds + pretzel salt that gives it that distinctive character.

It is very possible, indeed probable, to completely fuck up a Polycom implementation however. A few years ago the company I worked for at the time decided they wanted to ride out the financial crisis by going for smart conference rooms all over and emphasize telepresence... I'm not exactly...

From living in Rochester for a number of years I can testify that Beef on Weck is an amazingly tasty sammich.

They finally put a price to it and it's going for $49.99. Seems a bit steep for a title with zero marketing or buzz. I'll wait for a Steam sale.

So looks like no immediate use of the Lazarus Pit...however it does seem to indicate some sort of mystical stuff went on since Ollie really did appear to be quite dead. Also I'm gonna guess Ras knows what he's doing when he kills a person. (Unless he was very much aware of the whole situation...

I watched it on the intrawebs and yes you absolutely need to watch the epilogue

They seem to use Gordon as both the POV character but also as the universal straight man to contrast against the broadly over-the-top collective crazy that populates the city.

The Rogues are assembling. The Flash has always had the best villains second only to Batman and they are doing a bang-up job casting them. Pied Piper is next week and it will be interesting to see if they ultimately make him more of a Rogue or take on aspects of his characterization in the...

I did notice that Stephen Colbert came back doing the voice of Professor Impossible

Even though the wait between seasons / episodes is pain incarnate, they always manage to come through with gold. Go Team Venture!!

Mechanical problems with the mechanism that moves the wings was just wrecking the Imperial maintenance budget. Remember Palpatine originally got elected on a platform of anti-corruption and fiscal responsibility.

That looks much more like a new Imperial Shuttle given the size, ramp, presence of royal guards, and the wings which look like the lambda shuttle wings but in a traditional Tie form.

There had better be a damn big payoff to the whole Barbara Keene storyline because the bitch is a waste of valuable screen time.

I went to Wendy's for the first time in what feels like forever and I feel they made a mistake when they reinvented themselves a couple years back. Before they were nice grease bombs with lettuce, cheese, tomato and mayo... now they taste like they are trying to be a sit-down T.G.I.Fridays kind...

Recently I've discovered my home network trying to give every device its own IP address everytime it turns on. Not my main PC mind you, but every phone or tablet or SONOS speaker etc. that pops onto the whyfys gets granted a new IP. After awhile this resulted in it running out of address space...

So this crept completely under the radar from my perspective after I saw it at PAX... and now it is released next week! Here is their launch trailer:

I am a total sucker for Alt-History sort of sci-fi (Crimson Skies, Deadlands, Temeraire etc) so I may be a bit biased, but I found this to be exceptional. While parts of the setting seemed a bit over the top (the hospital bit for example) the overall theme and portrayal of what an alternate...

While I have stopped playing I have a couple of buddies who continue to log in every night for a couple hours of Destiny and while I was watching them grind out their daily story / bounties we got to talking... What the fuck IS Bungie doing with all this time / revenue? They have made a mint...

Yeah I've been doing it with no addons at all, straight up vanilla interface. Blizzard employees themselves should do a no-Addon month challenge where those who still play their own game go for one calendar month playing with only the base client / UI. Would be interesting to see if they...

Since I have nothing else to do I decided to level Archeology... holy mother of god is this a dull profession. It makes Fishing look like playing bullet hell on meth.

Since this is my first MOBA I've been just slowly getting into it as a noob. Mostly just playing Raynor since he was the Tutorial dude and only cooperative matches against the AI. Considering that I pretty much am the target market for this offering (gamer who hasn't played MOBAs and yet was...

Or just cast Idris Elba in a ton more things since he's pretty damn badass without having to make pictures / shows about being black.

My address on my battle.net account was old so I guess someone at a place I haven't lived for a few years will get something in the mail... Would really have been nice for them to post some sort of heads up so that people could make sure their physical shipping addresses were up to date...

We go to the movies at least once a week (sometimes more than once if catching a midnight sci-fi/horror classic at one of the indy theaters here in Beantown) and yet I've only seen the Imitation Game from the list of Best Picture.

So Al Sharpton is declaring a State of Emergency or something because all the actors and directors nominated are white. I can't think of any particular great performance that was snubbed however. Lego Movie not being nominated is a real puzzle. Given that I never even heard of two of the...

By the end of BaRF Blackhand will presumably be dead so that is him and Kargath killed off in raids plus Garrosh finally biting it before the end of the levelling story. That still leaves Ner'Zhul (he gets defeated in Shadowmoon Burial Ground but doesn't seem to actually die), Gul'Dan...

Wow they are really stretching out the LFR release... The last wing of LFR doesn't roll out until the last week of March, that's kinda crazy. Might as well just let my account lapse and then re-up sometime in the late Spring rather than just have piddly content for the next 2-3 months. My 6...

Played a bit in Practice mode using Raynor since I have zilch experience with a MOBA. I will say it is rather entertaining, I need a way to convince my Diablo / Starcraft buddies to give this a shot.

The problem with "Support" as a 4th role has largely been the way it was implemented. Rift and other games chose to make Support effects be group/raid wide and often of a fixed percentage. This leads to problems with scaling that cause designers to pull their hair out in large tufts...

Yeah they showed an encore performance of Empire AKA Dreamgirls 2015

Shoehorning Lando into this, especially given that he seems to be the only one to not appear in Episode VII, just seems quite lame.

I have long wondered why Blizzard doesn't do something about Mages/Warlocks/Rogues/Hunters being classes that have only DPS specs. While I don't expect them to pull a tanking Mage or Healing Rogue out of their ass I would think they could come up with some sort of creative solution to the...

So the head of CBS doesn't like the idea of Supergirl interacting with Arrow and Flash since "they are on another network". Someone should remind this bitch that the CW is part of the CBS media conglomerate and that cross promotion with two wildly successful shows that have strong youth demo...

Somewhat significantly this establishes that they will be using actual mysticism / magic in the Arrowverse. Up until now they've been limited by martial arts and super science and then adding metahuman powers with the Flash and the particle accelerator boom. The Tatu totem would necessarily...

Overwatch Trademark Suspended By USPTO, Blizzard Contending With Smartphone App So apparently the name Overwatch is already in use by another (admittedly much smaller) company. Will ActiBlizzard buy them out or take the effort to rebrand their new IP before people get too used to the name?

They also announced a new Animated series "Vixen" set in the Arrow/Flash DC TV-verse which will have appearances by both Arrow and Flash. WB seems quite willing to broaden the horizon of their new cash cow

I played an Elf Mage and yeah you do get some anti-elf sentiment, but mostly it comes from you saying "Ummm I'm an elf... why the fuck would I be the herald of YOUR god??" I also managed to fail to have any romances, which is a first for a Bioware game. I think I was doing a bad job of...

Hmmm Season 5 still isn't up on Netflix... Was trying to get people caught up on it to watch as a group but no such luck.
