It's a meme.

Dany's chaps stopped being good when Karl Drogo died.

Seeing how people avoid cache hits and align data sometimes cracks me up. Since this is a general compsci/software thread I'll repeat the oft spoken advice that you should very rarely attempt to optimize your code at a low level first. Make the code legible, well architected and...

We should do a prediction contest like we did for breaking bad.... would people want to do that? We predicted the end result for the series as well as what happens to each main character in the series.

The morning had dawned clear and cold, with a crispness that hinted at the end of summer. Have fun getting through all of Daenarys' shitty chapters.

Nope! My game backlog is huge. I'm playing ESO, then Dark souls 2, then Diablo3: ROS. By the time I get through that watchdogs will be out and some other games I'm forgetting about

Always cracked me up that the yellow power ranger is a dude in Super Sentai. Anyway, the power rangers was just a little after my time, but you really can't deny how good this intro riff is Also xmen theme

Trollface quit being so creepy!

Always weird watching videos of shows you haven't seen in decades and the kids you used to identify with look like brats, the dads look your age and the moms look hot.

Why are functional languages becoming popular at financial institutions?

Tarrant which book you on?

Everything about the show has indicated that slavery = bad in asoiaf

Haha I've done this before. I've blown through a handful of games in an afternoon until I just said fuck it and went outside. This often happens when a big game is about to come out and I want to play it so bad but can't.

I enjoyed Prometheus.

That's how I expect this to end. The cycle of war will be ended by a good-hearted hero getting all the power ups in the world.

If you removed all quest steps where the quest text is, "Hey, click that shit over there." you'd probably shorten the game by 80%

.NET's memory management is amazing until you try to stress your system in ways .NET doesn't like. GC.Collect(); One .NET project I've worked on runs image processing on thousands of massive images and allows viewing of them and the image processing outputs. GC.Collect(); What...

How organized is the french PVP community for Archeage?

holy shitballs what a bad issue

Oh it's about as good as the PvP is in this game. We do scheduled raids three nights a week, last night we had around 30 people on. Compare that to 90+ a few weeks ago. We have PVP during primetime in the other nights but it's not numerous or consistent. PVPers are a pretty resilient bunch...

Yeah I was looking forward to Khane's reply to Lendarios', but I didn't expect him to so readily prove Lendarios' point about the mentality of a nurse vs a doctor.

Managed code makes me nervous and frightened.

Put me in the group that wants to be a nameless soldier who is in a harsh world that doesn't care about you and the only way to earn fame is to do it by earning it with other players. Killing Molag Bal was an exercise in mediocrity. But being one of the first people on a server to get an epic in...

Yeah the class system in ESO is interesting and modular in neat ways, but because of balancing issues the endgame in PVP has some strong pidgeonholes like you say. If they worked really hard, were talented and were willing to take more risks, you might see a more interesting system develop...

I mostly agree with what Lendarios says, but I'd caution against carrying the nurse/doctor comparison too far. Medical doctors go through a decade of intense education and training in ways that require an expensive and formal medical school (cadavers n' shit, residency, learning information not...

Kakashi has plot armor. I thought there was a significant chance he'd die in this arc but with Naruto doing shit like making eyeballs and saving Gai I think the chance of anyone dying now is very low.

He always seemed to have an extremely accurate but pessimistic view on life, and he's one of several 'ironic knights' in the show (With Brienne (female but is the most honorable knight in the kingdom) Jaime(brought shame to himself by making the noble action:emoji_nose:. But yeah, I don't remember him...

You were doing fine till this point. You knew the Washington Generals were going to lose the game, but you were just guessing on all the details. You've made a ton of bullshit statements about the game that allegedly came from insider information and PTS access that were categorically false. If...

Nah, the Aizen shit was the writer putting himself in a hole and using bullshit to get out of it. The reason Kakashi had to chidori Rin was never really explained to Obito, so this wraps up that thread nicely in a coherent way.

Discrete Math: paying out the ass to play puzzle games in college.

Unless you're some kind of genius or know this shit already or your college is irresponsibly easy your academic advisor should be taken out and shot. And that's even if you got a 4.0 in the prereq you're trying to skip. Those are all hard hitting CS classes. I'd recommend you try to learn the...

Yeah it is. People have problems with mem leaks, loading bugs, crashing etc, but I haven't seen the server go down recently. There is some lag in Cyrodiil in primetime but it's not bad.

Utnayan was generally wrong about any insider details he gave on why the game sucks. Almost everyone in this thread knew this was a stinker, but Utnayan's accuracy for why was pretty bad whenever he veered off general opinion. The two biggest things he harped on were the lack of quest content...

No need to be a dick!

This is more of a "Sure, we've talked about having a 3d world built around the facebook user database, much like everyone else that talks about VR + facebook" than anything else. The big question I've had for Facebook's Rift acquisition is what does Facebook get out of it? Every other...

I agree 100%, sometimes she looks like a beautiful woman, some shots she looks like a 12 year old boy.

99% chance it's a scam.

I don't think those pics are the Oberyn duel scene. I'm guessing it's just a pre-duel hype scene to show that they found the strongest guy in the world (literally) to play the mountain.

Yeah I really just want to see this scene
