If you haven't finished the Suramar Uprising quest line (now that all of it is available), it has tons of AP, assuming you're at AK25. If you're not, I'd suggest delaying doing that and doing the repeatable content (every AP WQ, bags, mythic+ runs, whatever you can get your hands on) until...

Trump + Musk (twice now) = Mars 2024? If he gets reelected, that'd be the crowning moment of his presidency.

Can't remember exactly, but wasn't this last launch the first time we saw the landing live from the 1st stage's camera? Usually the uplink breaks completely, but this time it still managed to update a couple frames here and there...

That's what we did at Nevrax as part of the pre-prod/production work for Ryzom. But it was structured; the producers and lead devs never actually played the competition. There was a dedicated team (of... 1) that would be playing about everything (that was in 2000, so we had mostly UO, EQ, AC...

Oh, no. You can use solar panels. At least 15 days out of around 29. No need of undeveloped technologies. The same applies for spaceships propelled with LOX_H. You carry the water/ice, and start your electrolysis operation as you approach the moment where you're going to brake; you only need...

Yep, except for the part where you have to ship the ice back to earth/mars/wherever for use. That's where the economics of the thing become complicated. You need to factor the cost of bringing the fuel from wherever, plus the anticipation cost (your fuel has to be extracted months/years in...

He3 might be key to fusion and lots of energy, but it's shit for rocket fuel. For rocketry, you want an oxydizing stuff. Nitrogen-based stuff is good because it's easy to keep for the trip to wherever. LOX+stuff is slightly worse. The simplest fuel from the moon would be... lox+hydrogen (that...

Depends on available resources on it. It's like earth: fuel is the key to the economy. Right now, if you ship to earth orbit (LEO to geosync), it's ok to send everything from the ground. But once you start going somewhere else, unless magic farting unicorns drives exists, then you have two...

Wands basically became one-hand weapons similar to daggers/maces for priest. They serve as stat sticks, but unlike dagger/maces, you can't use them to melee (I think), which is why the damage on them is completely irrelevant. You can still use the original weapons, like staves. And I hate that...

About 4 times a year, I delve in indy writing, and I usually end up disappointed, but my Q1 foray was not. Dungeon Born (The Divine Dungeon book 1) goes into a setting that I absolutely adore: the Dungeon Keeper type games. It's basically Dungeon Keeper, told from the twin perspectives of the...

And perfect landing shot. (apparently a first for that drone landing pad)

Remember for today:

VGA is fine, 24fps is fine and 640k ought to be enough for anybody. (I might slip in the "There's market for 5 computers in the world" quote, if you're willing)

Yea, he's got a second series coming on TV, since NBCU picked the Wild Cards for adaptation last year...

Tomb of Sargeras is definitively 7.2, probably Q2. Argus follows, but 7.2.5 or 7.3, who knows. And then, it's one year until Q3 2018 and the next expansion. Of course. As for the mythic stuff, I think the one thing I remember is them unlocking mythic-only dungeons for heroic modes in 7.2...

New ones will. For old ones, you get a repeatable quest that lets you farm NH bosses (50 drops, hope it's guaranteed drops) to get a token that increase the ilvl.

Rule 34, man...

Rule 34, man. Rule 34...

They merely assume that one visitor isn't going to leave until satisfied (they counted visitors, not pageviews).

In this age, except for a few outliers, sub-based is not a valid long-term business model for your game. You need to design your game for the day it will have to go F2P, which means you'd probably better off starting with a F2P model. I think the best business model for any game is GW2's. B2P...

I think you can buy up to 10 with no cooldown at all, it's just still costing 500 resources per AK. The catch-up item is 500 resource for a straight jump to whatever.

I think it's previous tier -5, i.e. you can buy AK5 if you have a AK10-14 char, AK10 if you have 15-19, or AK15 only if you have 20-24 on your main (and of course AK20 if you're maxed)

Bought one, then today tried to buy a second box, and it says that my collection is complete. So, you can only buy one? If I'd known, I would have saved for a medium box, same saving of 50 over individual incubators, plus 2 extra incense.

Ecept that the Chinese appear to do it "indoor" (in Tiangong 2), not space, and their claim is "It works. Trust us." (zero details on exactly how they test, what they test, etc)

It also costs money. At the moment, the vast majority of people is completely convinced that it doesn't work. That whatever force they're measuring is an artefact of the system, not some strange and unknown effect. This is compounded by the fact that the effect doesn't seem to scale much...

Finished Babylon's Ashes just before christmas. It was a bit slower and less packed than the previous ones, but that's basically because it's the second half of Nemesis Games. Too much Marco, not enough alien, I guess

So, got the new version with the Christmas decorations load screen. Looks like we're going to find gift boxes this weekend.

The compendium eats all your banked scrolls.

You need to have activated your first portal, i.e. unlocked Telemancer Occuleth and done the survey above the cave. After that, about half of the portals are unlockable directly, the other half are tied to quest progression.

Don't know exactly how it works for tanks, but it was mainly about strategy on how to place it. Once we finalized our placing, it went from "wipe halfway thru P3" to "kill without a brez". Try doing ToV with 5 melee dps and 1 range (which was us yesterday before the nerfs). You almost can't...

Yup. I caught only two Pikachus in the entire 6 weeks I was playing this summer, both of them at the same location. 5 since I restarted last week, and most of that week was "let's catch one Pidgey to the daily bonus".

Yeah, that's what was assumed as well. Then we started getting model simulations and the possible scenarios to system creation exploded. The old, naive model was "planets form wherever, volatiles boil out innermost so you have rocky inner planets, not enough volatiles in outer so you have...

Started again after autumn break. Did the CP change what 'mons are good or was it merely a calculation change, and they do the same damage as before? Any changes in the list of good/average/bad pokemons?

I silence the music, but usually leave the sound effects on as additional cues. Usually. Now, when the shadow apparitions in Voidform started to make sounds...

We used to think Copernican principle would apply, and we'd have a typical system, and most star system would look like it. Then, we started finding exoplanets, and we found mostly weird shit like jupiter-sized stuff orbiting closer than mercury, and we think that no two star systems will be...

Ah ah, MT got that neck yesterday. At first, it was like "well, ok, it's still an upgrade somewhat" About 5mn later, it was "WHO DO I MURDER? I WANT THIS SOUND TO DISAPPEAR!!!" (had to teach him how to shut the divine shield sound every 30s)

Raiding has its place. There's basically two very different way you can approach raiding. The first is tightly tuned, hard-as-ass content that gives grand prizes. Heroic/Mythic raiding in WoW. (and before you call heroic raiding easy and trivial, think about how many people have actually...

Crafted boots with the best 2 secondaries + 16 sargeras = near perfect 855 boots. No reason to be stuck at 830 on a main.

Poopsocking is alive and well in this era!

And unlike every other mob in WoW, she will pursue until zone line. There's also Ambassador Dvwinn around in Suramar city.
