Unfortunately, about 75-80% of the time isn't spent opening crates, it's spent at the mailbox next to the recycling center (you did put the recycling next to that mailbox, right? Don't worry, you can move the small buildings around for free) to find out which items go to which alt. It helps if...

Some heads up for massive crate openers: I did measure how long it takes you to open 400 crates and dispatch the non-equipable gear to the alts that can (and dispatch the equipable to a similar alt, because I can't equip yet to unlock) and it's just over one hour. If you have loads of crates to...

There's a new trailer supposedly, except I couldn't find any difference with the old. Meanwhile, in a cumbercrossover:

Insane? Youhaven't seen insane yet.

Well, people are against GMOs because they are against GMOs. They're not against GMOs for reasons. The arguments come after to justify being against GMOs. If an argument doesn't work, there's plenty where they came from.

A distraction from pesticide and GMO... It's not often that I see a goodsummary of the current thoughts on human origins.

RAF is different from the old scroll of resurrection. RAF is for new accounts; you can't use it to re-enable your old account. Your friend will not receive a bonus unless you buy the game on the second account and add 2 months of game time to it. The two accounts are separate (save for the BoA...

If you really want BSG to be still good, the last scene you watch is the one where they stand on nuclear-devastated "Cylon Earth". That's it. End of show. Depressing, but not infuriating.

The entire last season was bad. Once they started going offroad with "Earth was populated with Cylons and died in nuclear war! No, actually that wasn't Earth at all, the real Earth is still waiting for us" "Head Six isn't a mental problem, she's a real entity sent by God" "Starbuck is Moses...

You forget (if it's Wakefield you're talking about) the bit about being the patent owner for a different vaccine substrate which, I presume, would have been "perfectly safe to use", and was seeking funds to create a company to exploit said substrate at the time of the Lancet study.

They've pretty much stopped caring about people rolling on stuff; that's what personal loot (which they're increasingly pushing on everything everywhere) is for.

Depend on what client you use, I think. On standard clients, the main timeline has all messages that include your handle unless that specific person is on ignore.

Yea. To be honest, I don't understand the limitation. I understand the retro-quest based limitation, because the retroactive design is based on "what would you have picked and enabled as xmog if it had been there at the time". But for modern? I already destroyed plate/mail/leather items in...

5 coppers, not 1. That's a fivefold increase in profits!

MyVOIDstorage is already full. I've stopped touching any old raid because I'm too tempted to keep any piece that drop for future xmog, and the only place that's still empty is the original backpack.

So, every MMO launch ever?

There's even Pokemonin the front lines against ISIS...

Which is why he's at Baen for that. You want good mil-fi, you look at Baen. My amazon suggestions are littered with space mil-fi from independent authors, all of which are usually terrible. John G. Hemry ("Jack Campbell") is not that bad when you start peeking in the morass that the rest is...

All of the non-main series are co-authored; the Manticore Ascendant is one with Timothy Zahn (of Star Wars Extended Universe fame, but lots of other books; another author I mostly recommend on its own). This is probably a trilogy, so this should be the last book of that series as well. Show at...

No, we mean Robert's grandmother, Rhaelle Targaryen.

Yep, patch on 19th (20th for the EU).

Yep. Anderson writes mostly crap on his own, and Brian should have left his dad's opus alone. The sad part is that they probably sell enough, since the editor keep buying new books.

At the moment, VR has a big problem with movement. If your character moves, but you do not, you get nausea relatively quickly. That's why most games are "seated" games where you don't get the illusion of movement. MMORPG are going to be hard to do.

There was a time early this year when the Sagan voice over and credits at the end got dropped. They came back after two months, which I assume is due to some copyright madness stuff. Maybe that's why Facebook blocked it in the first place (and they forgot to unblock after the copyright issues...

Seconded. That's the last SF novel (and the penultimate novel) he wrote before cancer. The two drone ships by Space X are named after spaceships in the Culture novels and legions of fans wept when they found out that there wouldn't be any new works in that universe. Note that when he writes...

Do not diss Wildcards. I think that's probably the best superhero universe ever written. Croyd >> everyone. All awesome apart, you can have a guess at what he wants to make by the whole of his works. Of course, with millions speculating about the story, someone is bound to make good guesses...

The film was so well received, it got him hired to make theNew Horizonspromo video from NASA.

I'm sure we don't have GMO gut microbes that synthesize antidepressants directly in your intestine because Big Pharma does not want us to have free medicine!!!

There's two Drake factors in the above, and there are philosophical considerations that it might not be that difficult. Intelligence, per se, appears to be not too difficult. On Earth alone, at least two if not three genus seem to provide intelligence: primates, corvids, and potentially...

If you decided to clone it in labs. Most farmers dropped the practice of making seeds because their seeds were usually less productive (because they did reproduce in the wild rather than a lab) after a generation or two, compared to the seed manufacturer's products. Most productive varieties...

There was a paper a couple years ago that plotted the possible number of civilizations in the galaxy and the chances that we would haven't seen any signs of them nor heard any modulated radio wave. The curve drops below 50% at 7 technological advanced civilizations. And it might be Bad News...

Just in case people are still arguing about Jon (because apparently, some people out there can't figure it out), HBO put an official "important characters relationships" diagram on their GOT site:

Friend of mine said, "considering how popular she is, she'll probably die horribly on ep. 1 or 2 next season".

That would be fun. It's even in-lore, as the Legion destroys everything across the universe. Alas, the hordes of IP lawyers would be even more fearsome than the Legion. Featuring the zones: - The Empire (Warhammer Online) - Dereth (Asheron's Call 2) - Telon (Vanguard) - Brittania (Ultima...

He'd better be careful with his orbital mechanics if he wants to explain that. I still remember the epic nerdage over Ringworld and people pointing out to Larry Niven that his beautiful Ringworld was unstable...

Sam's going to find the marriage contract in that nerd library archives of the Maesters...

They showed it, they didn't SAY it. The fade-out between the baby's eye and adult Jon's eyes is their way of showing it's the same guy.

Which is usually the main or even the only thing you really need to know about a MMO. You don't even need screenshots after that.

Hydrogen is formed first, and oxygen is a relatively "light" atom made easily by 1st gen stars and is actually more common than carbon. So yea, it's the most common molecule out there. I was just re-readingFive Billion Years of Solitudewhich begins with the common speculation for solar system...

You have until Aug 30 to finish the quest. The Khadgar Servant will stop offering his visits to your followers in your garrison on 7.0, that's all.
