Worst/Most Idiotic part of WoW was the gear resets. Gear should last. Raid gear should last even longer. Long lasting gear has long-term effects: top-end guilds work on new raids for newest gear, while Friends & Family guilds that couldn't hack old raids with old level cap work on old raids...

I saw the recent gameplay on youtube - even given that the guy was told where to go and what to do by Brad -- it is looking like VR might actually produce a game before the Apocalypse occurs. Insipid hashtag to follow. #Monk4Ever

Arthur Allen Leff, Some Realism About Nominalism. Should be required reading in any entry level philosophy course: all logic (and thus all philosophy) rests on a set of unprovable axioms. The difference between any particular logical structure (say atheism) and another logical structure (say...

These days: a lot of modern country - but I don't think any of you communists listen to real American music. Hey Whiskey, Smithfield How Not To, Dan and Shay Remember only Country Music gives you real relationship advice: Yeah, Joe Nichols.

Can't argue with that.

There's a WaPo article but you'll have to find it yourself. I propose that Trump freely admit any beautiful Italian women refugees who want to immigrate now to avoid this future catastrophe. #MAGMA

Exactly what they'd say if they wanted the sheeple not to panic. #DontBeASheepleBeaMeeple

Blaming the messenger. Sad.

I spy with my little eye, another Bejeweled fan.

If you don't save your iPhone how will you be able to played Bejeweled in the new post-apocalyptic world? Breach in Earth's magnetic field Breach in field recorded June, 2015. Here's a terrible article on the subject for the boffins: Earth’s Magnetic Field Is Weakening Drastically And No...

You should probably learn what the results of a weakened or nonexistent magnetic field would be for your personal electronics and/or the power grid. Hint: Carrington Events become a yearly or monthly 'thing'.

Apparently the weakening of the Earth's magnetic field is accelerating and it's going to collapse in twelve years. Time to start building that Faraday cage you always planned to build.

That's not why Kerry was in Antarctica Researcher Claims Pyramid Discovered in Antarctica is Actually a Secret Alien Base - TechEBlog Or maybe Kerry is just a douche and thought the multi-million dollar expense of a SoS going to Antarctica for a photo op was totes appropriate. #probablythis

I couldn't find a good webcam - there used to be several for the nuke site but they all just show cranes now.

This is what happens if you investigate #pizzagate you get disappeared.

More radioactive sushi coming your way.

NASA seeing strange blue spheres. NASA cameras capture huge blue spherical object | Daily Mail Online Though it may just be the Sun and NASA cameras are going fubar (HT reddit).

Yes, he is totes "comfirmed." Anyway, the frothing anti-EM guys are all pretty much idiots I'm just going to point out one quote from the mess Tuco posted: "Their force measurements don't scale with power as one would expect." This is nonsense. One would 'expect' that the em drive wouldn't...

The reverse-thrust comment by random reddit guy is stupid. 1. It's not a factor of 2, only for the 80W test. 2. The real weirdness is (a) that there is one reverse run at 60W and one forward run at 80W where the value is 1/2 that of the other two results and (b) that there is a big difference...

Because extraordinary rendition isn't a real thing? Oh wait, it totes is.

Confirmed where?

I don't follow the ins and outs of it, but my friend who does seems to agree with the OP that Assange is either dead or imprisoned in US. If so, makes you wonder how much US bribed Ecuador?

So without going into heaving TLDR details, as I said, this days I'm semi-retired and spend most of my time either planning prospecting and/or treasure-hunting trips, or going on the planned prospecting and/or treasure-hunting trips. I've already talked a little about prospecting (focus on...

Oh yeah, I didn't see that when I was looking for a prospecting thread. I should have searched on gold. Relatedly - the single best introduction to Placer Gold mining (or rather locating) can be found in Mark Twain's 'Roughing It' Chapter LX on pocket mining:

I think it's a nice pastime, and I'd do it on weekends but I'm totally in the wrong area (LA/OC), much more successful if you live on the East Coast/South. Especially the South, there are still many small treasure troves to found from folks burying their wealth to prevent it from falling into...

Steve Fossett was already found. Nobody else worth looking for in the area.

Nevada is very, very large - Nye County alone is roughly the size of Massachusetts . And while parts of it have been completely explored, I can't imagine others getting more than glances. However, it is very much Minecraft-In-Real-Life. Per your point, I assume that the surface has been...

Yes, I primarily prospect in Nevada way, way less regulated, and the state has a much better website for downloading standard forms and etc. I lode prospect, so I don't pan (not that NV is known for its rivers) or otherwise look for placer gold. Basically Nevada has historically had huge lode...

I'm semi-retired from the law-talking business these days and one thing I've started doing in my spare time is prospecting for gold or silver in Nevada and California. It's a great way to spend a two-week 'vacation' - lovely country (especially if you like deserts, and I do) - there are lots of...

The Mandela Effect • /r/MandelaEffect If you don't know what the Mandela Effect is here is one paragraph on it: It's the name for the phenomenon a few - some - many people have experienced where they are sure that something is X. But they discover that in this 'timeline' (in ME speak) X is...

Put that on a hat and you've got a sale.

If you are a man and you vote for Hillary in November you might as well cut your balls off now, because Hillary's first EO will require mandatory Federal castration of men. Trump, at least, won't call for Federal castration of men on January 21, 2017. And the truth, that you all know, is...

As to the "nothing was wrong" comment? Pure bullshit. For an EA game, it's in decent shape and the Developers have been totally open about their issues (e.g. AI weak now, etc) and, most importantly, why the switched from TB to pausable real-time. You can like or dislike what you want, but flat...

You're whiteknighting the guy who keeps trashing the game despite never playing it? And despite the fact that developer has via video, podcasts and multiple posts on the forum explained, in detail, their rationale for the realtime combat. Which is that they spent a year with turn-based combat...

I found a turn-based game for you Jait. I know you think turn based mechanics are the pinnacle of gametech engineering, so I'm sure you'll love this!
