    Silva was immediately rushed into surgery, which was successful. After a visit from Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta, Silva told them that he absolutely plans to return to the UFC and fight once more. Before that day comes, however, a lot of rehab is necessary. Today, we got a glimpse into...

    EQ Live - Swarm Balancing (Headshot, Decapitate etc)

    I recently started playing this again. Anyone active on Bristlebane? Also when is this February update going to kick off? Been farming a ton of AAs this last couple weeks, haha.

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    It's more profitable to entice people to roll in a gold membership than to have them do ingame actions to earn stuff. I recently started playing this again. Anyone active on Bristlebane? Also when is this February update going to kick off? Been farming a ton of AAs this last couple...

    Virtual Reality

    It's a good thing for the Rift as long as Oculus didn't pay too much money to CCP to co-produce it. It could be a bad thing for EVE if the Rift is a failure. Though I'm sure they'll port it to monitor and consoles.

    EVE: Valkyrie

    That's pretty big news. We knew that EVE would work very well with the Rift but to make it exclusive means they can disregard all other considerations and focus the experience on the rift. Hopefully things wil come together and really set the bar for a space combat simulation with VR.

    Weather

    packed snow is much, much better than ice. The worst is when it snows and melts in the day then freezes at night and snows again. You then have snow on ice which means you don't get any meaningful traction but can also get enough resistance in poorly plowed areas to get stuck easily. We had...

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    One thing I learned in minecraft: mining quartz by traversing an expansive, very random, high risk and combat heavy area (the netherworld) to mine quartz = fun. Mining diamonds by slowly cutting grids through repetitive, low risk and boring areas = boring. The goal for resource gathering...

    Superman can just stop those planets by blowing on them, what could go wrong? Take one for the team, Brazil!

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Don't forget the force required to escape gravity of each of the stars. Also god help you if you don't account for gravity while pulling the planets. Protip: Put the heavy planets in the back.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Superman made it by using his hands to push together bits of dying stars, fusing them together in an element only he is strong enough to make (Actually I have no idea).

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    We'll figure that out when we get there. It wouldn't be the first bet I've made here where the result is ambiguous and nobody wins or loses.

    Disaster Preparedness and Survival Training

    Renamed thread. My plan for short term disasters is to eat all the food I would never otherwise eat that I only bought when I momentarily lost my mind at the grocer. My plan for long term disasters is to become an evil marauder who will eventually be taken out by an unlikely heroic team of...

    Virtual Reality

    It's tough to say how much creative direction he really had at ID, and you hear mixed things about him and his ideas. From what I hear he's working on an incredible difficult problem at Oculus that hasn't really been solved yet (efficient dewarping of a wide fov render), which, if he's a...

    Virtual Reality

    Japanese companies testing 360-degree VR broadcasts for live events I can imagine getting to be on the sidelines of a football game with the ability to move around and then just wanting to go back to watching the game from the dozens of cameras they have automatically switching around. Maybe...

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    I can't imagine how they're going to create a real combat system with manipulatable voxels. Minecraft is fun for a time but once you figure out the AI it's very simple to ruin a mob's ability to path. My favorite escape plan is to run to a wall, bust through it and close the other side. Will be...

    Sutekh's C++ +More Thread

    I don't really know what you're learning or doing with C++ but the problem I listed is actually pretty good if you're learning C++. It uses very basic constructs that any programmer will learn, is a real world problem (as in, I got paid to solve it and will get to use it on a robot tomorrow!!!)...

    Sutekh's C++ +More Thread

    So this was a very good response to the problem. There's three big things it does that are critical: 1. It uses a source-based search for finding the rotated point. Rather than iterating over the source and rotating each point to find the destination it's better to iterate over the destination...

    wow this is very impressive. Hopefully this avoids the problem of all log cabins looking somewhat 'samey' because they share the same tools. We should start an imgur album for everyone's creations.

    The Robots are Coming (DoD to replace one fourth of soldiers with bots by 2030)

    One question is whether you want a relatively small number of white collar professionals in a safe, controlled and relatively nonstressful setting whose actions are systematically logged and monitored making life or death decisions or if you want a large number of ground forces in dangerous...

    Good post. And yeah, Grim, I forgot about Edward Norton. I think his performance as the hulk is underrated. I think most of my dislike for Bale's batman is because of the writing and overall actions by Batman. Batman is a master detective, gadget user, stealth expert and fighter in that...

    The Robots are Coming (DoD to replace one fourth of soldiers with bots by 2030)

    That's a pretty cool link. It's pretty neat that he was able to isolate a digital signal from its effect on an audio transmission and get GPS coordinates out of it. Another thing to keep in mind is that there are usually multiple communication streams on a robot, with video being the big one...

    Another thing about being a prolific character who has a history of drug abuse is that everywhere you go people want to do your drug of choice with you just for the sake of 'getting high with philip fucking seymour hoffman'. Even though money probably wasn't a concern all the logistics of...
