    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Having never played NWN2 you guys are right the camera sucks. In some cases I spend more time adjusting the camera than playing the actual game. I googled but all I really saw was other people looking for a camera mod, anyone know one off the top of their head?

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Last summer I flew up to the state of WA and got delayed for 12 hours so I rented a car and drove out to Mt. Ranier and sightseed for the afternoon. I texted a friend some pictures since he didn't know I was out of state. He got the pics 4 months later. Each one about a day apart. Rustled.

    It wound up being about a $20k BBQ pit big enough to grille 2-4 steaks on. We build shitloads of BBQ pits out of A36 for the shop guys. Even if they only last 1 year who cares, they get another. I know this is FSR and I'm just gabbing. We had a guy in the shop once cut up a bunch of 40'...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Pet peeve of mine is getting emails from people outside the company on a project and they write it using text talk or whatever slang. I don't care if they are short. A simple yes/no often suffices but these are people who are 40-65 years old and in charge of a large part of a billion dollar...

    I have a teleconferene scheduled every Wed at 9am where I have to tell the customer where we are on a large project. It's the only project we are currently working on, it's the only project the customer is tied to at the moment. I have the conference scheduled from 9 to 10 and it has never...

    A36 which is the most common plate steel is <$1.00 pound a good bit less if his shop is buying it in bulk. 1/4" plate weighs 10 pounds per square foot approximately. 1" plate obviously weighs 40 pounds per square foot give or take. So it's not really a lot and I'm guessing most of that was drop...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Well this thread didn't really make me want to play Pillars of Eternity, but I'm going to play around with NWN2 and some of mods/modules now. Never played it so now I'm research the prestige classes etc...I used to be big on the D&D world, I guess I let all that slip. Back to researching...

    BOSTON marathon bombing verdict

    Like a lot of other stuff I think that's a very vocal small minority. A LOT of people kind of like the idea of some of the high profile cases suffering at the end.

    I always make fire rings, mailbox numbers and other shit for people to do something with. If I'm really bored I make it out of monel or inconel and tell people what it really cost. Having lived in LA for most of the time I have made about a billion fleur de lis.

    They don't have such places in the ghetto aka food deserts. Don't you watch the news. Even the president said it was easier to buy a gun in certain communities than vegetables. Good thing illegal gun sellers don't take EBT - or maybe they do I dunno.

    Camo is huge, like you said you keep the same bonus moving as sitting still. No reason to NOT get camo early on maybe only behind sixth sense for the commander. I will add apparently I added gold camo to my E75 at some point because it never goes away. Good thing I play it still alot. Only...

    World of Tanks

    16,000 games and I haven't platooned one time. At one time I had a 53% overall win rate and a 1350ish WN8. Now it's slipped a whole lot because I frankly don't give a shit. If a team is 19% to win and then they go all one way and then stop 2 grids away I don't waste my time. Other examples...

    My thoery on lakeville is some of the heavies can't make it to the enemy cap even if they run into zero resistance. The ground speed is sooooo slow there for a real heavy they can't get anywhere if your team is on the ball. Always seems like a Maus or Lowe go there. The T29 used to be the...

    Probably have to factor in a lot of stuff not money related, how bad do you hate traffic and commuting? How much do you need that 20% to live on? Peace of mind has a lot more value to me, but a lot of people want the most dollar.

    Indiana...Religious Freedom eh? *sigh*

    I'm not a legal scholar obviously. So the supreme court says a police officer has no duty to protect a citizen, I guess as long as they don't say they didn't do it on religious grounds it's OK? But if you decline to bake a cake you're in more trouble legally than a police officer that decides...
