    War with Syria

    I know the Senate is writing its own bill. I imagine that the House will do the same. I'm guessing both will set limitations but who knows how far they'll go. All the bullshit about deadlines for withdrawal in Iraq/Afghanistan had some truth to it, if you tell an enemy what you won't do and how...

    If it can drive on the highway at 80mph without driving funny/rattling etc the frame is probably fine enough. A bent frame might wear the tires funny but whatever. And bent panels aren't that big of a deal. Disclaimer: I drove a car with a wooden bumper for over a year and currently...

    A Song of Ice and Fire (Released Spoilers)

    This kind of makes me wish that these types of books were published as episodes or chapters. I know if I'm really excited about a book I'll read it too fast to appreciate it properly since I mostly want to find out what happens rather than enjoy it. All the nuanced prediction foreshadowing is...

    Breaking Bad

    Interesting thought. Jesse seems like a genuine actor in this though and I don't see what the upside is from him working with Walt. Maybe I'm forgetting something but the friction between him and Hank always seemed manufactured. Hank was pursuing them and was deflected by Walt/Jesse tricking him...

    Onoes, besides the air bags and cosmetic details what else is wrong with the car?

    I totally agree with you.

    War with Syria

    I don't disagree. It's not a bad strategy to covertly use civilians as shields when you're being attacked. I just think it's another reason not to engage them.

    http://bigstory.ap.org/article/syria...-moving-troops The Syrian regime is moving its assets into schools and residential areas. Fuck that place.

    War with Syria

    We'll see. If the vote fails and Pelosi/Boehner/Reid/McConnel/Cantor drastically change their opinion I think you'll have evidence of why I assumed it was chronological. But it's an argument I only want to have after the vote takes place.

    War with Syria

    There's a long time between now and the vote. We'll see how the pieces fall. It's all in the hands of the MSM for the next few days.

    Most likely result of you giving out their information is they get a link to this thread and a request to come tell their story. Which would be hilarious to hear what you left out.

    Detroit - No, really

    That particular location isn't that bad and the Trumbleplex is protected well enough. Just don't stop for any stoplights at night when you drive around that area. For posterity, downtown Detroit is pretty safe and a good place to visit. Many of the surrounding neighborhoods have high crime...

    War with Syria

    We can argue about it after the vote happens. My perception was that it was chronological but I can understand why you would think it was not.

    War with Syria

    Big question here is whether this is in chronological order. Because 3 happening before or after 1 and 2 is very different.

    War with Syria

    I'm still going with the theory that the vote will narrowly fail with all the congress people who need to be seen as war hawks as voting yay. To me there's a huge difference between a party leader saying "We need to support this motion" and "Fuck me who cares what we say, do it anyway Mr...

    War with Syria

    Speaker Boehner isn't a party leader! Let's see how things play out with the vote, because I remember your bet stipulating that party leaders will vocalize their support for it after it fails to pass through Congress.

    Yeah, voting against ones own desires because you're upset that the potus is taking away your power to vote would be very ironic.

    You and Asherah make good points. The iterative release of new modules does make it seem more attainable, and the sandbox nature of the system does make it easy to build a platform and then iterate on it.

    I really miss the ability to powerlevel. Getting a thorns + regen would basically turn one hour of leveling into 5 minutes of work.

    Breaking Bad

    It's great if all the pieces fit together in the end. As soon as there's discontinuity or unfired chekov's guns the entire thing becomes very unsatisfactory. Besides, you could probably take a picture of any veteran drug detective's book case and find as much foreshadowing as was in that book...

    Even the RP crowd won't use that shit. Role players play roles with text and prefer to keep the game in their minds and the computer.

    The player PC thing is just bullshit anyway. When dogfighting the spaceship detail is wasted and technology to scale the LOD is decades old. Space sims are some of the easiest games to process because there's no world terrain. And yeah, not having a publisher to answer to must be nice, but...

    To me, making the full game playable on a tablet just means watering down the gameplay until tablet users can compete with everyone else.

    Good article, thanks for posting. I think his general idea is good. From a PVP perspective the only way a pirates vs shippers setup would work is if shippers have a reason to engage in PVP zones. If there's a remote military outpost in the nul-sec space that pays a huge premium for goods...

    He has a lot to lose since if they get harrased the only retribution they can enact is on him and his family. I know you guys want to see some more lulz out of this but if I were onoes I'd just try to forget everything about this but the lessons learned.

    Like that unnamed source would know what's going to happen anyway. The next week will be interesting as the American people will be making decisions in their own mind and once again the bias of the MSM will play a huge part in the future of the country. Congress will be looking at the...

    I just don't understand why devs keep putting QTEs in games. I can't even get a good scratch inbetween levels now without having to jam the Q button.
