    The Beer Thread

    We have a arcade bar downtown and it is always packed. Like any game that isn't terrible has a line of people waiting to play it. It also turns out tons of games absolutely suck if the fear of death is taken away from the game. I'm looking at the XMen arcade game and The Simpsons game as...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    When I was doing GRifts that high the guardian was pretty much guaranteed to explode with 3 legendaries. Sometimes 4-5. But obviously the biggest reason is to guarantee upgrades on your gem the higher you go

    Heroes of the Storm

    I think in terms of accessibility outside of CS:GO Heroes is probably the most accessible game they could have put on. If it was DOTA or LoL people would wonder why they're just standing around killing NPCs for so long. They wouldn't understand items. They wouldn't understand the skills. In...

    Heroes of the Storm

    I really like him paired up with Rehgar. Neither are the best straight up healer in the world but if you combine shields with AH it makes it nearly impossible to dive into a target and kill it. So they burn a ton of cooldowns trying to kill someone and you only burn AH.

    I think you guys underestimate how much it would cost to make a leather jacket out of actual real leather with that amount of detail. It would probably require maybe 3 deerskin hides @ $99 each. Then you need to find someone with the knowledge of how to make the jacket and work with leather...

    Heroes of the Storm

    I have a meta theory about this. So in general double support is pretty damn strong. The problem is in Hero mostly everyone wants to run a comp of 1 tank, 1 healer, 3 DPS. However since Tassadar is a pretty damn good off-support it requires your team to pick up a healer focused support...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I was listening to Cowherd while getting lunch and he was saying the Jags have basically a 2 month span with one real home game. They're away a bunch, have a home game, away a bunch, London "home" game, away a bunch. Good luck getting free agents to buy into this London bullshit Jax

    I mean divorces are rarely full of logical thought and reasoning. Megan has had her thoughts poisoned by her mother. Eventually if you're told the same lie enough it becomes your reality.

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    16-0 is really, really, really hard to do. This is still the NFL and making a couple of mental mistakes can mean you lose the game. Of teams that I'd consider games they could drop: Indy, Bills, Broncos, Eagles, Fins, Cowboys, (MAYBE) Jets.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    When I said "break" I meant break for our current hardware platform. At a certain point RDBMS becomes so incredibally costly to scale that it makes dollars and cents for your company to jump to a NoSQL approach where you lose all the rich features RDBMS provides but you can warehouse a near...

    I will say many of the ex-SC2 professionals who were giving HotS a whirl have seemed to really hit the brakes on playing it. qxc was streaming nearly daily for a while, Nony was playing it, Scarlett was playing it, Kiwikaki was playing it. Many have either moved to different games or are back...

    Pigs are pretty trainable. About as trainable as mid-tier intelligence dog. I'd imagine they could get some trained ones. They still have the opportunity to do it. Doesn't he meet up with the female dwarf again later in this season and she's all salt that her brother got killed because of...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    As long as you have the hardware you can make NoSQL query performant with solutions like Impala and Presto. If you don't need instant performance you can do it pretty easily with Hive. I don't think (doubt) Impala or Hive works with Cassandra since they're Apache projects. I'd assume Presto...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Depends on the table obviously. I think the one that broke Oracle is now causing problems (on the app side) because its IDs are approaching signed int territory. I haven't ran a count but I'd say around a billion maybe? Then each row had anywhere between 10-100 columns. But that isn't even...

    Granted I haven't had sunflower seeds since my childhood and ate tons of them during little league but I don't recall them coming out as the bad part. It was certainly the impaling into my gums which was the real drag. But the shells taste good.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    They care enough that they took the easy route of introducing RGift. Even if they rebalance this stuff there will always, ALWAYS be the "best" gem to put in a weapon at end game. Then at that point you will either be left with sockets being 100% undesirable (the gems are underpowered and...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    They should make it so legendary gems work more as enchants than actual sockets. Sockets are already royally fucked up in D3 so much they had to introduce the RGift. I'd prefer to see RGift removed and weapon sockets removed completely instead of making them mandatory and hamfisted into the...
