And the CEO had a Commodore PET which is circa late 70s, VERY early 80s. An IBM XT would have been more appropriate.

I guess I suck at movies because I thought this was decent. Granted, it was way too long. I liked how the antagonists were sympathetic in their motivations.

This is so bizarre. What's next? "Console Hut"?

Did only 2 asteroids hit? Friend is telling me there were many more in the book.

Sure. Hypothetically speaking, if one was on .NET 3.5 and suddenly realized you needed to upgrade to 4.8 then you might be in a world of hurt doing regression analysis on all those interim releases. So in that regard, sure, that makes sense. Personally, I have the mindset of, "If it ain't...

So the lead developer on our team wants to start migrating our classic .NET application to .NET Core. Personally, I think this is insane. Our application is very old -- an ASP.NET WebForms app which began its life in the mid 2000s. Now, the WebForms portion of the application can't be...

Gear wise, you can get ascended gear which is as good as you can get stat-wise. And there are websites that tell you precisely what to craft. It's not difficult at all. Time consuming of course then some materials are time-gated. I had to play Guild Wars 2 for a while before the game finally...

Shocked that this runs so poorly on the PS4/XBone. Their hardware isn't that underpowered. Sounds like shitty coding to me.

Are these government trainings? I work for a global medical devices/pharmaceutical company and while we have a shit ton of ridiculous trainings, there has been nothing along those lines.

I honestly don't know too much about this, but I think a Gateway is useful if you'll have multiple clients talking to your API. I think a proxy is for decoupling the client's API from your backend API. I assume this is a cloud-based app you're developing?

One of them gives you an ascended backpack, correct?

That's what I love about this game. Tons of stuff to do but you never feel like you're "falling behind". Except for maybe the story, of course. Speaking of which, I wonder if I should at least jump to Season 5 and complete what's been released to this point? Although I've completed HoT and...

Fresh Air Tempest is what I run with my baby elementalist ('baby' as in, I'm no expert ele player). But I have no hope against core Champions or the tougher HP challenges in HoT. I definitely need to try out that condi weaver build.

Is this even a thing anymore?

Does the combat in this game feel repetitive or am I missing something? Seems like you basically do some kind of attack with a character, switch to another character, do an attack, ad nauseum until target is dead. It's all very flashy of course, but I feel like I'm doing the same thing over...

It is a cool map, I grant you that, and fun to explore if you aren't trying to rush through it like I was. But I can't imagine how ArenaNet devs architecting that thing without losing their minds.

I map completed Tangled Depths today. This has got to be one of the most obnoxious maps/zones in the history of video games.

Friend is telling me there is a massive time jump after the current story arc. Maybe it was due to that, as they would have had to apply aging effects to the entire cast.

Three episodes in. This is great!

I have collected so many Tomes of Knowledge I've been able boost a couple characters up to 80 just from those. I haven't had any trouble just jumping in and learning a new profession at 80. Also keep in mind that Elite Professions don't even open up until 80, so you still have to learn...

I feel like I can't make any meaningful progress in this game, which is entirely my fault. I log in, do the dailies, kill Teq, and night is done for me.

What is this game's "hook"? I'm up to rank 15 and, while the combat is pretty fun, I already feel kind of bored.

Yeah, I like Fear because it's sorta more like early TWD -- that is, a small group trying to survive and generally likable characters. It's not great but still a lot better than what TWD devolved into.

Holy shit, she was Janielle in T2.

Funny, I just rewatched Aliens last night and wondered if this actress was in anything else?

I don't think we'll be getting any more good MMOs for the foreseeable future. Not until some massive technological leap is made.

I also recommend Babylon 5 if you're craving good scifi.

Also reminded me of Prometheus -- snake comes out with nothing significant to feed on but somehow manages to grow 1000x in size.

Certainly I'm not the only one who noticed that female kid looks like a Romulan?

If you haven't already, definitely do Goemm's Lab jumping puzzle in Metrica Province. It's not particularly difficult, but is very cool.

I second this. Fun show. Great characters. Awesome finale!

By the way, that ark wouldve been vaporized. There's no way you'd have intact wreckage lying around. But yeah this has become just weird and boring.

I looked that one up -- Troll's Revenge? Too bad you can cheese it now with the Springer mount. But I guess prohibiting mount use for this one wasn't practical. But I'm sure people who got the achievement legitimately were pissed off knowing this.

Binding dodge+jump to a mouse button is also super helpful for jumping puzzles.

Got my third Tequatl's hoard last night. The luck I've had in this game has been astounding. Too bad I can't sell it.

I recall having a bit of that months ago, but nothing recent. Weird. What is your home world? I'm on Yak's Bend -- which is quite full.

What do you guys mean by 'lag'? Network latency or framerate? The game definitely gets choppy with 10 thousand players on screen, but I rarely have network lag.

Yeah maybe so. I was under the assumption that most hyper religious societies often shun technology and science.

I'm not really sure why people love having an entire season dumped all at once. It makes it impossible to have any "watercooler" talk -- can't talk about individual episodes, theorize about things, etc. It removes a good chunk of the fun of watching a new season of a series.

Isn't it strange that the hyper-religious group is apparently WAY more technologically advanced than the grimy atheists? Hell, if Muslims were launching generation ships to Trappist-1 I'd say sign me up to Islam right freakin' now.
